I've never actually had fried turkey after all these years of eating Thanksgiving dinner. One of the boys requested it and it was incredibly tasty. Feel like I can only eat it this way again.

Came down to the ocean with my partner and his boys for the holiday weekend. Instant peace.

Sneak preview- I am playing with sounds to make a podcast jingle.

Today we had a Zoom guest panel, including 3 of your colleagues, talking about mindfulness and I'm just struck by how lovely this audio mindfulness project has been! Now they are working on their own final projects for presentation next week!

The sound is just so much cuter when you watch him roll around 🤩

One of the beauties of the Pacific Northwest in the States is how green it is and how many trees there are. But last night we had something that people call a bomb cyclone and there are downed trees and leaves everywhere. So while leaf clean up and tree fall cleanup is a regular activity around here, it's especially interesting today. Weirdly I am one of the only people I know with power most other people and my circle have lost power

After work I went into town, the “winterfest” market is on now, it feels too early!

The weather has changed quite a bit this past week. Very heavy rain, much darker morning and night, and my hands are often cold in the morning! Just trying to get them warmed up.

Went on a countryside walk and was amused by the sheep, they sounded so loud, like someone had given them a megaphone! We were up the hill from them, they were in a field at the bottom of the hill

They're cute but man they are loud! I have high ceilings and it's operatic at times!

They most annoying dog toy in our house 😫

Sitting reading a magazine, I thought I would try and record the sound of flipping pages/ flicking pages.. it’s quite hard to do! I don’t read many physical magazines now, but I do enjoy curling up with an art magazine inviting me to paint and create

Please mind the gap.. Glasgow Subway sounds

I have an air filter in my living room and there's always this soft white noise from it. Recently I moved some plants around, and I placed this one potted palm by the air filter. I was sitting and enjoying the sun coming in the windows (finally!) and heard this scratching sound. It is the leaves of the palm rubbing together from the air coming from the filter. It's interesting to "hear" air in the various soft sounds it makes moving through and against things.

The sounds of liquid bronze being squeezed into its last drops falling to my favorite mug that I've had for 30 years. When I am not sure where to start, how to anchor myself, or begin again, my morning coffee is always there

14 November was a working from home day, I heard a robin singing outside

I've missed a few days over the last 2 weeks, and noticing how quiet my world is on most of my days. Today I stood on my porch just to capture the sounds of a plane overheard, a crow nearby, passing cars. But inside while my son is at school and my dogs are quietly napping on the heating blanket, I am struck by how little sound there is

# data[].attributes.body
I have different keyboards on different computers, on campus or at home. I sort of love the sound of the clacky keyboards. It feels like I'm really doing something!

Daisy loves autumn, playing with leaves is one of her favourite things.. bonus sticks also present (the absolute joy of dog sitting, especially after a day where I was mostly seated!)

# data[].attributes.body
I look after my friends dog sometimes when she works shifts .. Daisy is always super happy to see me, as I am to see her! This is me opening the door to tippy-tappy happy 🥰

My partner's place is right by a major train line. This is the sound that's we hear in the night and throughout the day. Mostly what's cool is that laying in bed, the house rumbles and the bed rocks. It's very soothing

The sound of making scales for a public art piece, inside a historic church

Not working today, trying to take time out and tidy the house, but also self care. My husband is working late, Im wondering how it’s nearly 9pm. This is apple fitness meditation snippit from one I just did.

I have had a hard time tuning in two things around my world and have felt very much the need to stay within myself. I'm aware of that being able to identify and capture sounds from my environment requires the ability to step out of oneself. Today I'm sitting at my partner's house and he has a fish tank with no fish in it but loves to keep the filter going, all of the fake plant life in there, and the lights changing for it soothing effect. Today that is working for me

Curating my news feed and media input from now on will be important. Here is a back track, my friends lovely adopted cat who “speaks” to me all the time when I go over. I’m generally more of a dog person than cat person, but animals are just- essential

I don't have a lot of words or sounds for today. My grief feels hollow but not resonant. I've been sitting in this quiet liminal space all day because it's pretty much all I can muster

Building things- Lego noise as I have a box of Lego in my office which I use for schools workshops. Little bricks make big fun things

Today I was trying to do a cool down set of exercises but there was a class on, it was LOUD.. the song which was playing is one which for some reason seems to energise many people in the West of Scotland (a local DJ used it as a bit of an anthem many years ago and it seems to “stick” as a song where folk get up and dance, even in the street).

I could also have recorded fireworks tonight, as that’s the noise which rings out all evening on 5 November here. Thinking of the US, and wondering what the following few days will bring.

November 4th- crossing University Avenue

# data[].attributes.body
(Warning, kind of loud!)

University Avenue, one of the main roads by the campus, is very busy, even at 6pm. I recorded the sound of the beeping pedestrian crossing this evening, such a UK traffic noise.

This time of year in the Seattle area is very grey, rainy, and windy. At my place the wind blows off the lake and up the hill in a tunnel and howls. The wind sounds like the prototypical sounds of ghosts "oooooohh" and the chimes of my and neighborhood homes clanking like chains. I love that wind itself doesn't have a sound but thru the instruments it plays of our world

My teen son often sits in the loft in the evening, me in the living room below. The sounds of down time collide. YouTube and music. Video games and baseball game. These are the sounds of an evening at home (late post from 11/2)

My dogs insist that even after they have been fed, they must have missed molecules. So they continue to lick their bowls, switch and then lick each other's bowls, making music with their name tags and the side of the bowl. The sound of hope!

A little recording- just finished my dance meditation class, I was noticing all the birds outside. When I listen back to this it’s more traffic noise and people than nature- interesting!

No work today, just cooking! Relaxing and house stuff, and a luxurious long lie in. This is the tabletop cooker doing its thing.

Bike sounds! The reason I’ve done this is that my journey to work today was possible by bike, a habit I want to keep as it’s nice to be out and about. Not particularly pedagogy related, though it does get me from A-B and back again, and I appreciate the environment and changing seasons more when I cycle!
