sound is art
Here is a link to the sound recording: http://margaretnoble.net/blog/norelco-100/
By listening to the "norelco 100" Recording, i immediately realized that the Audio recording was an advertisement, particularly, because of the tone of the man's voice. The way he spoke was with a tone that reminded me of an advertisement that someone might hear in the old cartoon "speed racer" that i used to watch when i was younger. his tone of voice was very relaxing, and the audio sounded reasonably high quality for such an old sounding recording. This recording was very easy for me to listen to, because the tone of the man's voice was very relaxing and calm, and in many ways nostalgic for me. one of the best parts of this sound recording was definitely, the music in the beginning, middle and the end of the advertisement, what i liked about these sounds was that there seemed to be an old popping noise at different and random parts of the recording, which someone might be used to hearing if they had norelco 100's and older models of tape recorders back when this came out. Over all, this recording was strangely satisfying to listen to, because i felt like it was kind of a taste of what it was like to listen to music and advertisements when my parents and grandparents might have listened to when they were my age.

I liked your description because you gave examples of why you liked it. You also said what it reminded you of, listening to it reminded me of popeye the sailer man that likes spinach. I also liked the part were you said you got a tast of the music and advertisment that your parents had growing up.
ReplyDeleteThe sound you descibed really well like " This recording was very easy for me to listen to, because the tone of the man's voice was very relaxing and calm". Then you also said that you liked the music in the beginning, middle, and end because their was odd poping sounds. Then you also descibed that the mans voice in the advertisment was like the anouncer in Speed Racer".
I think that you could of used more similes and metaphors. also you could of used bigger words like antiant instead of old. Other than that you did a excellent job.
