sound maps

4/14/2020

A couple of weeks ago, I wrote about sound maps as a way of learning about your place and recording what you hear around you. 
This is a way of being very still and recording the sounds that you hear around you. You can do this from a balcony, backyard or sidewalk near your home. 

  1. Take a clipboard, piece of paper, and pencil outside. 
  2. Make an X on the page that represents you. 
  3. Then sit quietly, waiting for sounds. 
  4. When you hear a sound, record it on your map in relation to you, using a picture or word or letter as representation. 
  5. Listen for several minutes, and see how many sounds you can hear, and from which directions they are coming.
