Kenlie


This piece sounds like it is about different rhythms trying to be held in sequence by the gong that keeps ringing through the course of the piece.


I think this piece could improve from a slightly more cohesive theme, the sounds appeared very random and it was hard to decipher a main theme or storyline throughout the piece.



Becky


This piece sounds like the experiences of someone's morning routine on the beach, going for a walk and then getting ready for the day.


This piece might improve from more points of interest in addition to the more ambient sounds.



Sophia


This piece sounds like a calm and joyful walk or experience between a woman and her child. The piece then takes a turn and becomes more dark and mysterious.


This piece could benefit from turning down the ringing sound a little just because it is so abrasive and takes you out of the listening experience to turn down your volume.



Lily


This piece sounds like the experience of a writer getting sucked into their work and the real world disappearing as they write.


This piece could benefit by making the typing sound more consistent but maybe faded into the background to keep the above theme consistent if that's what the creator was going for.



Simon


This piece sounds like someone's daily routine throughout the course of the work day.


This piece could benefit from a couple more points of interest to draw listeners in.



Hannah


This piece sounds like someone who is overstimulated working on a project.


This piece works well in a shorter form factor, but over the course of 4 minutes just becomes white noise because it is so repetitive.



Ari


This piece is very mysterious and sounds like a recording within a recording within a recording.


This piece might benefit from some very recognizable sounds played alongside the more obscure distorted ones to give a better sense of what exactly is happening and give the clip a more obvious timeline of events.



Colin


This piece reminds me of the old twilight zone episodes. It is very creepy and ominous, but doesn't fully immerse you like more modern productions than twilight zone do. Instead it has this quality like the old twilight zone to it that makes you feel like you are just a fly on the wall, an outside observer, and you aren't actually there.


This piece was my favorite and the only thing I could think to improve it is maybe the inclusion of more dialogue or human sounds toward the end.
