I used ambient sound throughout my project, only stopping it abruptly towards the end to show that sounds are always around us and sometimes we don’t notice them until they stop. I used voice to replicate the poem aspect of the project and I manipulated the left and right channels to make the voice go from left to right to move the story from past to present/future. The background sounds that were used were chosen based on what was being said by the voice, to show the literal representations of those words and the sounds they generate.
