JACOB KIRKEGAARD

I went onto this website http://www.fonik.dk/works-sounds.html  which had great sounds of different places done by Jacob Kirkegaard.

From his audio files he had I was mostly interested in his sound piece “Ears of The Other” which he did in Ethiopia of how he records the everyday lives of the people that live there. He  recorded their favourite sounds and in there are different characteristics in each piece which make it interesting to hear for example people singing and talking in the background. 

This influenced me to look at significant sounds that you would hear at the locations that we were going to record in. In each location that we were recording in, there were certain sounds that would signify that location for example, at a church you can hear the church bell go off or at the park you can hear kids laughing or people chatting or playing games.
