Assignment 0: Paul Casavant

I did my listening assignment in Barton Hall. The most prevalent noise was the pipes and the fans. Its just a constant hum noise that muffles almost everything. Everything seems muffled and echoey. Its a big building and sounds bounce around everywhere. There’s a track coach talking with an athlete and you can hear their voices but no words. And only part of what they are saying is audible, but when you can hear it it echoes. Someone walked in to the door and the door shut and echoed through the whole building. Because of the space, all of the quiet sounds are muffled in the white noise and all of the loud sounds echo. Everything gets lost in the hum.

Assignment 0: Paul Casavant

Hi All, my name is Paul Casavant. I’ve tried to get into this class every fall since my sophomore year, so I am really looking forward to it. I grew up in a musical household, with my sister becoming a music teacher and my brother becoming an acoustics engineer, but I have always been a little behind when it came to music. I played percussion for about 5 years, mainly the drum set and timpani, but have since fallen out of the practice since high school. I’ve always wanted to create things, but haven’t found the right outlet. Looking forward to the semester.
