I often have conversations make casual comments about sounds to the point
where it's "oh look at that" = "oh listen to that". Also to tapping on
things. Which ia a little more eccentric but rewarding. People seem to
appreciate these ecentricvities and equate it to having a rare appreciation
of the world. I also belive our moods are very much governed by the levels
and kinds of sounds around us when we don't even relize it. Maybe that's what
people realize too late that it was the sound of their partners voice or the
street they live on has driven them crazy. Or that it was the soothing voice
that motivated them or made them dream of good things. We all naturally
apreciate the voice of a good singer so why not the good sounds of other
things?
When you think of it sounds have more force then we relise. The din of sound
is more of a force than the din of images. Sounds always makes people curious
as to their identity. A funny sound, an unusual sound, where is that sound
coming from? What's making that noise?
