Hear My Campus Roar

At first glance, UNCW's campus glows in the light and is warm and comforting. Once your eyes shut, however, the campus erupts into a cacophony of erratic sounds. Attempting to find clean and consistent audio proved to be difficult. Wherever we took our field recorder, we could never shake the loud hum originating from the buildings. As I walk from class to class everyday I drown out the constant chatter of my peers to an almost silent environment; yet, the H6 picks up every little mutter until it becomes an inaudible orchestra of words. During our search for pristine audio though, we did stumble across a handful of auditory gems ranging from skaters nailing tricks to the tennis courts already mid way into a match.
