Audio Portrait of a Place

Audio Portrait

Title: Desert Storm

Spring 2024

Software: Audacity

My audio portrait is about a soldier experiencing a concussion-induced dream during combat in the Gulf War. As explosions erupt all around him and chaos reigns on the battlefield, the main character is knocked unconscious by an explosion. In his disoriented state between waking and dreaming, he envisions a soothing glimpse of the peaceful life he knew before the horrors of combat.
