"Mr. Krabs...I have an ideaaaaaaaaaa!" ~as sung by Spongebob Squarepants

I want to make music out of life, so here's the idea: create an audio blog by posting clips of sounds I hear throughout the day and then describing what is making the sounds, where I am, when the sound occurred, etc. so that the whole world can experience, aurally, what I experience in everyday life.

Being a musician, this is an extremely important aspect of my life and I would like to share it with all of you!

That being said, here are my intentions for Phase 1 of this experiment:

1. Find a decent recording device: something mobile, accurate, and as inexpensive as I can find for this purpose.

2. Record 1 hour of continuous sound: I figure that starting and stopping the sound would take away from the natural flow of sounds in everyday life, so taking sound clips from one continuous hour would be more accurate in depicting my day than taking a few minutes here and there throughout the day.

3. Take down descriptions of sounds: During that hour and upon revisiting the sound clip, describe exactly what sounds I hear, what produces that sound, my location, time, date and other pertinent information.

4. Post sound clips and descriptions as a blog entry: excluding all conversation or musical recordings/performances without express written consent from those whose voices or performances may be part of the sound clips.

5. Use any feedback from the blog post to adjust the next entry in regards to which sounds should or should not be posted, my descriptive style for the posts and answering any questions about this project.

Well, there you have it. Please let me know if you have any immediate feedback or questions regarding this experiment and I will post answers as quickly as possible.
