    • 2 Pages

    You hear many sounds throughout the day. In the morning, the sound of your toaster, when your pop tarts are ready. At night, when your floor squeaks when you go to the bathroom. There are many noises throughout your day. The poem “Atoms of Sound” is about everyday noises are what form your days and nights. Throughout your day you hear many noises. The television turned up; chitchat on the telephone (lines 9-10). You can also hear your dogs. Their long claws clicking on the floor (lines 4-5). You may also have siblings, so you will hear them in the morning also. My brother wailing, red fist clenched furiously (lines 29-31). Those are just some noises in the day, but what about the noises at night? At night there are very few noises, but…

    Sam Pollard The Senses (Journal) Audition A busy street. A jet in the sky. A child crying. These are just some of the millions of sounds that you encounter on a daily basis. But, how do these sounds go from one object to another? How do our ears work? How do we perceive sound and do we perceive sound differently than others? Even though we cannot see the inside of our ears to find out what is going on, we do know that hearing is triggered by certain physical stimuli. Pressure waves are one thing…

    • 2 Pages

    Sound has been an integral part of the film storytelling process since the studio era began. Since its inception, sound has proven to be an important technical and creative innovation used by film directors to gain the attention of its movie viewers. Present day films are unbalanced because they are visually two-dimensional but use 3-dimensional (3-D) sound. Sound plays a vital role in calling the viewer’s attention to the spatial and temporal dimensions within scenes. Directors, Editors and…

    Sound is integral to the world; even in a quiet space there is very rarely the complete absence of sound. Often sound is related back to the daily activities of people, cars roaring down the streets or the bustling noise of the voices of a crowd. Sound is also commonly found to be a pleasant addition to daily life through music on the radio or through the sounds of animals and nature. However, the sound in certain locations can also offer a glimpse into the context of the space and illustrate…

    Sound And Music In Medicine

    • 2433 Words
    • 10 Pages

    The Role of Sound and Music in Medicine Touch, sight, taste, smell, and sound; these are the means in which we interact with the world. I ask the question; which one is more important? We have all been asked this before, but has it been given enough thought? Enough research and time? Obviously this is a loaded question, filled with more subjective thoughts and personal preferences than researchable facts. In any case; all the senses are instrumental in our perception of the world. The…

    • 3 Pages

    The Use of Sound Design in Creating Fiction The crowd rustles, the jostling for seats rises and then slowly abates. Lights begin to dim, and a quiet stillness of anticipation palpably subdues the audience. After darkness and silence fills that space of minute eternity, sounds in orchestra escape into wanting ears and thus a sojourning through story, in the form of theatre, begins its irrepressible rein. Regardless of technology, or venue sophistication; regardless of social status or…

    Sound In Seven Samurai

    • 396 Words
    • 2 Pages

    I noticed that in Seven Samurai, Akira Kurosawa uses sound to both compliment a scene and also to juxtapose what we’re seeing to what we’re hearing. I first noticed the contrast of sound to the images on screen in the beginning when all of the villagers are discussing what to do about the bandits and there’s the sound of a bird chirping in the background (5:54). During that scene Kurosawa used actual sound, which is defined by the book as being sound that can be “actual (or natural), in the…
