illustrative narration of a crowd of people waiting to hear the sound of trapped miners signaling their life from underground. In Church's "Auscultation", the underlying theme is that sound is essential to life. Sound can mean more than words ever could. Steven Church's "Auscultation" is a 4 chamber essay. Personally, I believe that the 4 chambers represent the 4 chambers of the heart. This is relevant due to the topic of the essay; the sound of life. The first chamber sets the tone by describing a mine

much easier to listen for certain musical instruments instead of looking for what was being played. Doing this actually helped me realize exactly how much I have learned in this class, especially the different types of instruments and what type of sounds they produce. The whole performance from the dancers to the music and lighting blended together like sugar and Honey Nut Cheerios; in other words, perfection. The lighting of the stage matched the musical performance amazingly as well. It was as

Discuss ‘radio’ low cost as part of the characteristics of radio. As it is simple, it is also a cheaper medium.

Findings from the study revealed that radios are easily affordable, accessible, and often more handy to use than TV. Those without TV and radio, however, still have access to the media through socialization in their local communities. In much of the world, radio remains a primary medium

pulse of sound and measures the time taken for the pulse to reach an object, reflect off it, and return to be detected. Can the temperature affect the camera’s focus? Why? YES, the temperature of the air affects the speed of the pulse. If it is a really hot day, then the pulse would travel faster then the camera expects making it think the object is a lot closer then it really is. 3.

1 Pitch The scientific term for the rate of sound vibration is frequency. On the level of perception, our ears respond differently to sounds of high and low frequencies, and to very fine gradations in between. Indeed, people speak about “high” and “low” sounds quite unselfconsciously, as though they know that the latter actually have a low frequency—relatively few cycles—and the former a high frequency. The musical term for this quality of sound, which is recognized so instinctively, is pitch.

2)Single Beam 500,000 - 750,000 soundings per survey 3)Multi Beam 4,000,000 - 100,000,000 soundings per survey Echosounder An echosounder sends sound pulses through water to measure water depth. The water’s depth is calculated by recording the time between the emission of the sound and the reception of an echo as well as the speed at which the sound travels through water. The echosounder first was developed for military purposes, but by the mid-1930s it was used widely for hydrography in Canada

I've found very interesting things, especially about the sound and the camera angles. The sound design of the film is very well integrated with all the other elements, and in some moments it gets a very important narrative purpose. Besides that, I also noticed the use of camera angles helping with the narrative, to reinforce pre-established concepts and sometimes to show the characters feelings and emotions. To exemplify aspects of the sound design, we can look at the scene where Rusty James is lying

But both formats resembled each other, in the way that they are easier to use
