This is a picture I took of the megaphone sound design rehearsal at UMBC.

Public Moves Rehearsal at UMBC-10/20/08

This rehearsal was primarily centered around the students who were participating in the sound design of the performance. At first I did not realize how much work was involved with the rehearsal but I realized there was more pressure for the sound design participants. I thought the megaphones were an interesting tool to communicate to the audience which movements to make and when. I enjoyed the part where the whispering crescendo became manic. Some of the megaphoners seemed shy at first because they had an audience a few feet away but they gradually became more comfortable.

Why I chose this plot of grass?

This piece of grass reminded me of youth and the freedoms that come with naivete. This picture was taken near a garden that was planted by a member of the community of Charles Village. Either a child from the nearby playground planted this pin wheel or the gardener did. The pin wheel reminds me of the sun shining down upon the grass. I decided to use this picture as the main site picture.
