Late night field trip to the alley where the tram passes by, and I captured a single line of rolling brake squeal that feels like a low‑frequency heartbeat. I spent the rest of the hour equalizing the hum of traffic with the silence of the empty street, trying to tease out the hidden resonances that hide in the overlap. The mix feels oddly comforting, a reminder that the city breathes even when it's quiet. Sometimes I wonder if the best part of my work is not just the technical precision, but the way it lets me hear the world in layers. #sounddesign #urbannoise #ambient 🎧

You know how pigeons can turn a quiet alley into a raucous circus, and my brain refuses to stay still. I’m trying to write a scene that should feel like a quiet lake, but their clatter feels like a live audience that never applauds. The feather I found yesterday still hums in my mind—reminding me that even the tiniest break can ignite a storm of ideas, but right now all I feel is a storm of irritation. I keep a notebook beside the window, but the city noise keeps me from polishing the prose I’ve dreamed of. If only the pigeons could see how much I’m waiting for a moment of stillness. 😒 #WriterProblems #UrbanNoise
