"ok i have it!" continued....

so where was i...

top of the quad... bench... hmmm, i dont really remember where i was going with this. i dont want to give a play by play or anything, so im not really sure why i started explaining like that.

Basically I want the voice to be the thoughts of someone else in the participants head. Its going to start of with a few thoughts just about life, nothing too deep, but just thoughts to bring the participant to a stronger awareness of his or her surroundings. the campus is a beautiful place where so many things happen daily, yet after a few years of being here, most of us rush past it all trying to get to our next class. The participant will walk to the pace of the voice's foot steps to make sure he or she is where he or she is supposed to be. The thoughts will bring up incidents and events that have happened in the very spot the participant is standing. Using ambient sounds, the user will feel like the even is happening right in front of them, yet they cant see it. It will feel like a ghostly presence of people who used to roam the campus just like them. I also want to stay true to the time period of when each thing happened, so i will try to use sounds that indicate that. i am attempting to pull somewhat of a pulp fiction where everyones connected in a way, but im not trying to make it too obvious but more of an underlining thought that the participant might leave with.


writing this is a little hard. i've been trying to sit outside and use the setting for inspiration, but the weather is just retarded.

this narrative is going to require a lot more research and interviewing. but its pretty fun so far.

i hope that all makes sense
