Reading Response

I read the article by Luigi Rusollo. this article was about the growth of sound and the noises that are produced these days. Before machine and cities there was only the sounds of nature such as waterfalls, trees blowing in the wind, earthquakes. Now there is machines, people, and instruments that make noises. This is the the progression of noise making and what people have made of it. There has also seen progression on the types of noise we make such as chords which are complex sounds. Now there are also instruments that can make human and natural sounds such as whistles, screams, cracks, and booms. People in the world are changing the way sound is heard everywhere, now we don't have to wait to listen for rare sounds we can just make them with new instruments.
