For our experiment we took a picture every minute whilst simultaneously recording 15 seconds of sound in order to create a visual soundscape. We started from the Stokes Café and ended at the Cathedral. By combining sound and image we were able to capture moments of the City’s liveliness but also the more quiet moments which we found to be as we started to ascend Steep Hill.

(Okay, I tried to upload it but for security reasons it wouldn’t let me). I chose to attach the sound clip which was taken outside of Tesco Express because at this moment, a couple were walking by with suitcases which were making a lot of noise on the cobbled streets. I assumed that they had just gotten off the train and were obviously in a hurry to get to their destination. At this, I began to speculate where they could be going and whether they lived here or were just visiting. I then realized the importance of observation in Site Specific Performance and how small details and events can change how you perceive a place in that moment.
