Each sound collage is 30 seconds long and should be enjoyed the same way one would enjoy a painting in a museum. Let the art speak to you.

Sound Collage 1 - Excess

30- and 60-second recordings of a light waterfall and nearby stream. Recorded in Platte River State Park, NE during the winter.

Waterfall and Stream Sound Recordings

Recorded from the top floor of an adjacent parking garage on the University of Nebraska-Lincoln campus. The first wave of blasts were distorted because my input gain was set too high, but I was able to turn down the gain before the second wave. Recording has been slightly mixed to balance the change in input gain.
