Response to R2:

What I enjoyed about the viewings and readings in R2 was how passionate the people were when dealing with sound. For them and us in the 6X1 class, there are so many ways to record, experience, use sound in works. George Lucas put it best, "Sound is half of the experience." Sounds are not just noise, but they have an acoustic energy that is special. psyops especially was interesting because it is an energy that is different from what I was thinking, but it makes sense. I know that sometimes when there is a lot of noise around it makes me lose concentration and I need quiet.
