    tiny sounds.

    there is something so mesmerizing by hearing some small, almost universally ignored sounds. when stillness is interrupted by the soft rustle of paper, or I can hear some innocuous bug doing it’s thing. I also love the sound of animals chewing, but hate how humans sound when they do it. I once sat in detention at school, the room was so quiet. a fly landed on my desk, and I could hear it clean itself. it was so surreal. How many others have heard that sound?

      It’s some people’s jobs to create/recreate and record those sounds for TV, games, and other media. I believe they’re called foley artists.

        yeah! and the job was named after it’s most prolific artist, Jack Foley! I tell ya, if I could be a fly on the wall of a Foley Artist… Man… that’d be cool
