Sound Sculpture or Audio Environment

Sound Sculpture/Enviroment Project Sound Sculpture Project

Create a 'sound sculpture' that is at least 30 seconds long. Requirements

The sound sculpture should be able to convey an idea, feeling, story, or place to the listener by only using audio samples. The project should attempt to auralize something which is not usaully aural.

The samples should come from the 'library of stuff' (please use

explorer or internet explorer to follow the previous link) or from findsounds or freesounds.

You may encounter errors like this when you try to mix.

This is because the sample rate of the source and destination files are not the same. You want to keep the sample rate of your file at 44,100 and change the new file to match. If you don't do this the the copied file will play back at a different rate (faster

In order to get that file to copy/mix at the right spped you need to resample it. Select Process/Resample from the menus and the resample it to the desired rate. (44,100 with anti alias filter)
