Assignment 3

My thought process behind this project centers around normal, everyday sounds being composed together to make some kind of audio artwork. I originally had thought of areas that were known for their sonic experiences, but I thought it would be much more interesting to take things that are not generally thought of as being art and mixing/editing them in a way that they can be heard as art. I tried to use common things like a clock ticking and a pen tapping on a desk to mix with some beats and rhythms that I found via open source to create a mash-up track that explores sounds as music.
