walk

While walking on the Proctor Creek Greenway, right between the opening of the creek and the open field, I heard the dominating sound of the cicada in the lush greenery. In the background, one can hear the rushing water of the creek and some friendly conversation adding to the welcoming soundscape of this portion of the belt line. The sound was captured by a Zoom H6 recorder and a Rode NTG2 Shotgun Condenser.

Audio recording of footsteps along an off-path trail of the Proctor Creek Greenway. The sounds of leaves and gravel crunching can be heard with the steady beat of feet hitting the soil underneath. As a synecdoche, the sound represents the still available access to nature even through development of the Proctor Creek area. The sound was recorded with a Sony PCM-M10 recorder and an Electro-Voice RE50B omnidirectional dynamic microphone.
