Just read the article by Chion, pretty insightful stuff. In my sound recording class, we have listened to a scene from a film with all of the some 6 tracks on solo. without them, the cuts are very apparent, and some tracks like the ambient track hid the cuts better than the dialog track. the follied sound effects seem out of place and at wrong levels when played by themselves. but all together the scene flowed well with help from the dialog.
another thing that helped me be more aware of sounds like what Chion is talking about is the sound logs and recordings that we did in Shannon's experimental class. It definitely helped me listen better.
by the looks of this reading, Im guessing we are doing some sort of sound scape for the next assignment... maybe it was said in class already. Thursday afternoon, I ate some old fish and spent several minutes of class throwing it up in the bathroom ...badnews.
