The instruction for this project is simple: Please record the sound of water boiling and make something of it.
I recorded three different pots of water on my stove and with varying amounts of water inside them. My favorite is the old stock pot pictured, which I bought at a Goodwill store almost 25 years ago. The lid rattles in a distinctive way when a lot of water is boiling inside.
The six sound files I ended up choosing were loaded into my iPad Air and then manipulated using the Samplr program and mixed until I created the five minute piece you hear. It's a very rhythmic track.
When you listen, I hope you wear good headphones.
