Assignment: Create a sound composition incorporating at least one original field recording, at least one original vocal sample, and as many additional sounds from an assigned library. Duration 1-3 min.
Strategies:
> Soundscape: evoke a mood, sonify an imaginary place.
> Narrative: create a composition that develops in time, as in a movie soundtrack.
> Podcast: create a short podcast segment centered around a voice recording but also incorporating sound effects and documentaristic field recordings.
> Musical: if you have music skills, try to turn non musical samples into a composition.
