  • Heyser Audio Relational Glossary – Perception and Access

    Heyser Audio Relational Glossary – Perception and Access

    This is prototype knowledge compass for navigating complex audio concepts through relational structure. It rethinks how technical knowledge is structured, accessed, and understood. Interpretive layering and directional relationships between perception and technical understanding allow movement between concepts. It stands as a companion glossary to Richard C Heyser’s works on Time Delay Spectrometry, and an aid to tuning in to felt alignment between systems of perception.

    The audio measurement concepts are laid out in six interconnected modules:

    I — Perception, Illusion & Frames of Reference

    II — System Behavior & Time Relationships

    III — Frequency, Phase & Transformational Geometry

    IV — TDS Core Concepts

    V — Energy, Space & Room Interaction

    VI — Measurement Philosophy & Interpretation

    Phase II of this module looks at the peer review process of interpretive works.

    This project started out as a way of navigating Heyser’s work to create accessible mini-lessons. I thought I’d donate the work to the nonprofit Audio Engineering Society. However, between the IT challenges the society has faced and the need for modern peer-reviewed audio terminology once they get through those challenges, I decided to use my work interpreting Heyser to test the collaborative layer of GitHub. After returning to the relational module for several breakthrough teachable moments, I decided to further incorporate it into a larger project.

    Here is some of my recent field recording and post-production mix sound work. Well, the Highball video which is from 2019…I did sound for the 2020 video as well but didn’t easily find it online. I’m slated to work on the 2021 project as well.
    I work on several different jobs per week so have a lot of material but little time to work on reels. I grabbed the following links to secure an upcoming contract and thought I’d share. Reach out to me if you’re looking to hire for a specific genre of work. Thanks!

    Lincoln Theater – What a fun project this was to record and mix the singers!
    I studied opera back in the day and I like to hear vocals mixed well without heavy-handed compression.

    1. Just the breath (5:05)
    A short mindfulness meditation that focuses on letting the body taking direct control of the breath, connecting with that breath, and staying out of your own way. This is a fundamental to all of the other meditations and can be applied anywhere for a short and calming break from stress.

    2. Relaxing the senses (10:00)
    A short but effective mindfulness meditation that focuses on relaxing the senses. Throughout the day our senses filter a lot of information and the buildup can lead to sensory overload furthering to an unsettled mindset. Relax the sensory pathways and reset your day.

    3. Body Scan and Wake (17:05)
    A longer guided body scan ending with a short awakening guide to get back to the day.

    4. Body Scan and Sleep (17:05)
    The same guided body scan as the the previous track followed by music that fades out instead of the awakening guide. A practice suitable for maintaining self-visualization or letting go into naptime or bedtime.

    5. Candle Gazing (3:28)
    A quieter initial visualization that concentrates on building a strong visual picture in the mindscape, independent of the eyes, and connects the breath with that visualization. 

6. The Woods (4:09) – A nature environment visualization that establishes a visual picture and brings in sound, and the other senses lightly while easily connecting the breath.

    6. The Woods (4:11)
    A nature environment visualization that establishes a visual picture and brings in sound, and the other senses lightly while easily connecting the breath.

    7. The Night Sky (3:17)
    A nature environment visualization involving the senses and breath connection. This visualization best follows The Woods visualization and introduces the concept of seamlessly transitioning into different environments.

    8. The Beach (5:33)
    Strengthen the sensations of your luxurious getaway to the beach. An active visualization that uses all of the senses to create a connected and immersive environment of peaceful tranquility. Master this meditation for a strong but calm mind and being.

     

    Meditations are best started in a comfortable position in a peaceful environment and will require a relaxed and focused commitment to bringing the body to a deeply relaxed state.

    Lesley Ann Fogle has been a practicing yogi since 1994 after learning Alexander Technique through her college vocal studies.  Around 2000, she started introducing yoga concepts through vocal coaching which branched into workshops which branched into classes. For the last eight years, Lesley has concentrated her yoga teachings in the corporate environment to reach people in the work force.

    The music for this track by Lisa Bella Donna will also be available soon on Bandcamp for non-guided meditations. Info will be updated on this page and on Bandcamp.

  • Master and Margarita by the After-Death Plan

    Master and Margarita by the After-Death Plan

    [soundcloud url=”https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/209275509″/]

    Excerpt from the song Master & Margarita by the After-Death Plan from the album Literature. Every song on Literature is inspired by or dedicated to a great book or author. Master and Margarita is dedicated to one of our favorite books, The Master and Margarita by Mikhail Bulgakov.

     

    Master & Margarita

    No matter what you name here it don’t exist

    And only fools can be suffered to persist through unfaithfulness

    It’s when credence comes to trial and loses hold

    I’m done. I’m undone

    Only Margarita can recover me        (душа)

    Fighting for my soul and my dignity      (считаю)

    Only Margarita can recover me           (душа)

    Fighting for my soul and my dignity        (считаю)

    My love’s always open

    Your love’s almost done.

    Keep on, keep on

    Critics are wrong.

    My love’s always open

    And your love’s almost done.

  • Sable Island Promo

    Produced by White Gate Films for IMAX Theatres

  • Be More ThinkTV

    Image campaign for ThinkTV, a PBS-affiliate station.

  • Nintendo Gamecube

    Many Nintendo and Nintendo Gamecube commercials. Sound familiar?

    This was my first national voiceover campaign which was the push I needed to plot going from working for companies as a full-time audio engineer to embracing the life of a freelancer which allowed me to actively incorporate voice work.

    And more than that, I learned more as an audio engineer than I ever would have staying with commercial post-production. Freelancing meant I had to walk into any studio and work with the gear and situation. It meant I could pursue field and live broadcast audio instead of doing the same tricks every day. This Nintendo job also allowed me to piece together my first project studio which led to plenty of experimentation as a recordist and mixer. Gamecube will always have a special place in my heart. As will Zelda, specifically Wind Waker.
