Listening Analysis

Name: Gregory Hilleren

Choose a location on campus and listen carefully for all the sounds that are present. Get in a comfortable, relaxed position and try to separate the total sound in the environment into the individual parts. On a piece of paper, list each sound you hear as you identify it. Even what we usually consider quiet environments actually have a variety of very low level sounds. Try to identify every sound that is present in the environment.

1. Once you have identified all the sounds, arrange the sounds in order of apparent loudness on the table below.

2. Indicate which direction each sound is coming from.

3. Below the table, provide a short narrative description of the place you chose to do this assignment. This assignment is due next class period.SoundFrontLeftRightBehindNo Direction or Other
