My 2 words were grumpy jumping. Throughout the 2 minutes there is a consistant hopping noise. Every 5 seconds there is a noise that sounds like a train through a subway station. This noise demonstrates grumpy because it is a low irritated sound. I lowered the pitch and tempo throughout my 2 minutes to imply a grouchy angry theme. At the end there is a girl saying "I can't do this anymore. I'm so done" I included these words at the end because anger and frustration were established in her voice. 

Grumpy Jumping

On behalf of a Time Arts class at Syracuse University, I hand-picked at random two words. These words were "grumpy" and "jumping". I was assigned to interpret these words through two minutes of sound. Throughout this length of sound there is a consistent hopping noise. My intention for this soft noise was to be similar to a human jumping. I reversed the sound of this noise to get a more hopping sound, rather than a thud or something dropping. 
My interpretation of a "grumpy" sound was something low and rough; comparable to a growl or deep hiss. I lowered the pitch and tempo throughout the two minutes to imply a grouchy angry theme. This theme benefits the grumpy idea I am inferring. At the end there is a girl saying "I'm over this. I'm so done" I included these words due to the anger and frustration that were established in her voice to demonstrate a grumpy tone.

This audio portrait is a story about my first traumatic, yet memorable driving lesson. I was driving my first in-car, a two-hour driving lesson taught by an instructor. All is well until something very unexpected happens. My friend, Gabriella has commentary throughout my story to contribute reactions and annotation. I included Gabriella’s voice as well as some selected sound effects to benefit my story, and to add feedback.
