User Profile

You are invited to contribute lists of sounds that you have heard (or saw but could not hear) to an ongoing log of acoustic events. The preferred method of logging is: "SFX" or "FX" for specific sounds and sound sources; "AX" for general sounds and descriptions of sound locations; "TRAX" for any commentary that you wish to include as a narrative voice (spoken or unspoken--you might want to specify if unspoken); and the NAME or DESCRIPTION OF PERSON for other specific voices. You might also want to separate sounds from different times and places by one line.

For example:

Nowhere, California
AX: Abandoned train junction
SFX: Tumbleweed
SFX: Sand
SFX: Lizard (Inaudible)
SFX: Rain
SFX: Trickling Water

The language you ordinarily use in your daily life is preferred (if you write in English, online, then please do so here). If it is not English, feel free to include a translation in English (enclosed in parenthesis at the end of each line. Regardless AX/FX/SFX/TRAX should be spelled as shown.


Another example:

SFX: Waterfront ambience
SFX: Fish unloaded into bucket
SFX: Crane
SFX: Foghorn

I will try to create a list each day. The lists that you create can be added as comments to the lists that I post. That's all! I look forward to your contributions.
