As an exercise, I recorded moving from inside my house to the outside. Using the Zoom h1’s condensers I was able to hear the movement in stereo, creating an immersive, surrounding feeling. The kitchen clock fading as the heavy iron latch opens the back door gestures towards the age of my house, suggesting a homely environment. My home is in a quiet, rural area, and the recording reflects this; little is heard outside except some wind, birds and faint chainsaw noise. Above, an airplane passes lazily. Apart from the transition of sound as I open the door, the sound is almost directionless because of the distance of their sources. It is almost ambient noise once I am outdoors. Maybe I can create a recording with more granular detail?
