This is where the sound came from. Behind these bushes somewhere. Why such the privacy? What has society become where we hide behind our walls, unable to talk, to give a friendly hello to a passerby?This is the sound of a saw. I heard that sound, and now you will too. Why did I record this sound? I don't know, why wouldn't I have recorded this sound? It was there, it was present. the sound waves have gone through the air and penetrated my ears, is that not enough to warrant attention? Maybe you don't care about it, but the noise was there. If I bent to your every whim, where would we be? Exactly. So listen to this, and stop complaining.

"Hey look, I'm gonna go sweep my leaves"
So I see this guy sweeping his leaves, and I think to myself, who sweeps leaves anymore? Well, this guy did, and it made me realize what a true hero he is. The unspoken hero, he gets no reward for the work he does, no one throws him a parade. But he's out there everyday on the front lines, doing the thankless job to make this world a little bit nicer.also, its got a kickin' rhythm. He looked a little browbeaten.
Water what falls.
Whilst walking out the other end of the tunnel, I almost turned back from whence I came. But Lo, what sound harkens to my ear. Tis the rush of a waterfall. A mere infant waterfall, so young. tender. (You can hear, slightly , the sound created between the wall and the water. A bit of an echo). It's subtle, so if you can't hear it you're an unrefined Cretin
Drip/Drop
As I walked along the creek, I came upon an overpass, thus making an underpass for me to pass under. As I walked through I noticed the image to the left of you. The water would drip down by the wall and make a crisp plop onto the ground. I found it sounded something like a sink, or a shower. Why not figure it out for yourself

.Also, someone threw up a hot burner in The residential district of Milwaukee. Truly a Renaissance Man.

Brook, quit your babbling!
The first sound that I found worthy of recording was down through a park, a little creek. I walked along until I found a little babbling brook. I thought this sound interesting, not only because it is unusual , but also because it's just quiet enough to drive you crazy. You know you can hear the sound, and you can make it out, but it is right on the threshold of the human ear. Beware, it might just send you to the sanitarium.
Drift Map.
Drift 1 Strategy.
For my first drift I decided to take a pack of cards, and pick one everytime I come to a junction in the road. If I pulled a Spade, I would go straight. A club, backwards. A diamond, left. And a heart, backwards. It may seem a little conviluted, but I really wanted to try for the most randomized strategy that I could. It felt more natural than just picking a pattern, and I believe it let me explore more.
