Portland Speaks: What’s your favorite vegetable?
October 7th, 2011In general, Portlander’s have strong opinions, and often times aren’t too scared of expressing themselves. Every week, we ask Portland a question associated with the week’s Portrait.
We’ll be out on the street asking locals for their two cents, but you can also participate right from the comfort of your own computer chair! Feel free to contribute your own answers by uploading your own recorded answer to our dropbox.
This week’s question: What’s your favorite vegetable?
Portland Soundscape: A Day in the Life
September 23rd, 2011Does 6 minutes of pure audio sound daunting to you? Then check out this Soundslide to go along with this week’s post!
Judging by its name, this project should be sound-centric, right? Well, with so many cool things happening in Portland, and so many interesting people to talk with, it’s often easy to forget how interesting pure, unadulterated sound can be. So this week Organic City Sounds has been on a ‘cleanse’.
Today we’re combining our ‘Portrait’ and ‘Portland speaks’ sections into a single sound-scape. This audio-journey will take us all around town, as we explore a typical, summertime Portland day.
Here are just a couple of the things you’ll hear on this week’s trip around PDX:
-a typical Portland morning pick-me-up
-a quick stop at Portland’s local community radio station
-a moment of contemplation on a couple different Portland bridges
-a spontaneous group prayer session in downtown Portland
-and an evening spent watching little birds take over an elementary school
If you’re interested in the purest of sounds, you can also find individual sounds from our journey in the post below.
No matter how you choose to explore this week’s post, we’d love to hear your thoughts, questions, and comments. So until next week, happy listening!
