matrix and the voids are filled with a fluid (usually air). The physical properties of the materials can be characterised by bulk, macroscopic and microscopic properties. Most of which have an impact on the acoustical performance of the material. Sound energy is lost in porous materials when it is transformed into heat. This is caused by a combination of effects. Firstly, there are losses through the viscous effects between the solid matrix and the fluid when pressure waves causes the fluid to…

One of which is the interrogation scene, where the FBI use a black man to threaten the mayor of Mississippi into giving evidence. It’s a scene where Parker uses lighting and sound techniques to build tension, making the watcher unsure of what happens next. The lighting techniques create a spooky atmosphere, whereas the sound techniques uses quietness, a different way to build up tension. This scene of 'Mississippi Burning' leaves a twist in the movie as you are left feeling frightened but also…

Concert Review Let it Snow! Let it Snow! – Cahn & Styne (arr. Alan Baylock) This was the opening song. It was played quite well by the Jazz ensemble. I think everything sounds better with the Jazz ensemble. The two solos played on the saxophone were very well transitioned into the song. Each instrument in this small band was heard. As if you could hear each part playing. The director began and ended the song with little direction. The band wore Christmas attire matching the theme of…

Using Ordinary Headphones to hear Dolby Digital 5.1/ 7.1 Surround Sound One of the fun goodies we have obtained from the technological vending machine of science is surround sound. This three dimensional palette of aural bliss makes our movies more immersive, gives our music new depth and makes gaming more addicting than ever. When looking at the handful of speakers in a surround sound system, one could offer a rough guess at how all of those tones are delivered from every direction to…

I always write down what I want to say during my speaking and try to sound naturally rather than sound memorizing. After receiving a feedback about my speech sounded memorized, I have worked to sound naturally. I tried not to write a whole script for my speech, but just to write the main points. I also have kept practicing so it can sound more naturally. However, that did not work out pretty well. As I look through the comment for the last presentation…

The Use of Sound Design in Creating Fiction The crowd rustles, the jostling for seats rises and then slowly abates. Lights begin to dim, and a quiet stillness of anticipation palpably subdues the audience. After darkness and silence fills that space of minute eternity, sounds in orchestra escape into wanting ears and thus a sojourning through story, in the form of theatre, begins its irrepressible rein. Regardless of technology, or venue sophistication; regardless of social status or…

If it wasn't for Cloey, I still would have been that shy little girl I was. She has helped me to reach out and talk more. I never liked to talk at school or anywhere for that fact. Cloey was the one that came up to me to talk for the first time. That resulted in this life-long friendship. Cloey is a slim, short girl, around five feet tall. As seen by most people, her hair, usually braided, is blond with light brown highlights. By the way her lively blue eyes look, you can see her emotion. Near…

I felt something soft and sticky on my cheek. It was moving. I tried to push it away, it let go for a few seconds but came back and it was trying to do something on my cheek. Slowly, I recognized a silent voice that seemed to be very far away. The movements on my jowl became more intense. After a while the voice became recognizable and I could understand the invitation: “Come on, Honey! You need to get up!” The voice seemed like it came from a woman and suddenly everything became clear. I am…

guitar with sound waves and how they relate to the guitar working properly. We will then describe how the overall guitar works and we will go through the process which is the guitar making sound and incorporate the parts into how they help make the guitar work. The Diddley Bow guitar generally consists of one single string attached to a board or pole that runs through both ends of a cigar box. The cigar box, made of wood or a wood-cardboard hybrid, is cut on both sides with one or more sound…
