Our Soundscape Audio is named: Musical Coughs, why? It was made mainly of ONE sound, and yes... THAT IS A COUGH FROM RI :D, Enjoy ^^ By the way,
changing the pitch of a certain cough sound is awesome, and yes, the
background noise, coughing were the ONLY sounds we used from our
recordings, the other three, the click, pitch thing and static was
just computer generated. It is slightly irritating though so be warned :).
This soundscape invokes the deep thinking of how a cough can be so catching especially in such a big community in RI. Have you ever thought about why people have a 'sheep mentality', where they follow the crowd? Like when someone wants to go to the toilet and then everybody follows? Or when someone says he's going to vote for a certain Person X in some competition and everyone else suddenly wants to vote for him?
While it may sound rather 'lame', it actually carries a very profound message about life's weird occurances.... listen to all the other sounds, now imagine the other sounds competing with the coughs, insulting, taunting, fighting... but the cough still prevails. Think of jealousy in our time, now think of how loud the cough is, and then think of the string pluck that ends it all...
PS: OMG, YOU CAN HEAR THE ORIGINAL SOUND FILE OF THE COUGH RAWRRRR >:(
