Noisy Rough Cut Sketch Number One.

The sound in this video was recorded on a freeway overpass. I stood on a road over a busy highway and aimed the microphones at oncoming traffic. My goal was to capture sound that gave the impression that it could smack a person in the face. When I hear the raw recording, I am reminded of the exhilarating feeling of having vehicles thrust forward at seventy miles per hour under my feet. When I assembled this rough cut, I wanted that startling sound of traffic to warp the gravity (so to speak) of such a peaceful and beautiful environment.
