(A Dream)
Spring 2025
Audacity
For this project what originally started as a portrait of my day turned into a portrait of a dream. Dreams can feel chaotic, layered, and confusing before they shift to something calm, slow, and peaceful. I tried to capture both ends of that spectrum. I used reverb, echo, layered the same audio at different volume levels, and reversed a track to create an uncanny feeling akin to a dream.
