Sound walk

Inside:
The sounds in the stairwell are reverberated
Heavy footsteps vs. quiet footsteps
Reverb of door closing
The traffic outside against the quality of silence as we wait in stairwell

Outside:
Sound of cars panning
Crosswalk signal, bus beeps
Quick oscillating siren to my left
Parked bus with engine on
Radio outside Patio Cafe
Straw slides into lid of cup, and as I step outside the sound of birds reach my ears
Conversation between man and woman behind me
Water spraying ground, some hitting fence
Low frequencies of construction machinery
Subtle sound of contact between foot and gravel
High frequency of car breaks
The wind into my eardrums
