Question: Describe three surprises or unexpected situations you encountered on your Drift and in the days that followed. The surprise could stem from your expectations that conflicted with "on the ground" realities, cultural or social issues of which you were previously unaware, feelings and reactions that you did not expect to have, appearances and soundings of things you did not expect, good or bad outcomes of "on the spot" decisions you had to make, or the discovery of "deeper" realities in the materials you brought home. (Again, skip anything technology-related!)
Answer:
Let me see. I was surprised how long it took to walk anywhere while I was trying to record things. Id been out for half an hour and had barely gone anywhere, that was pretty crazy I was like "Hey 4 hours is not going to be so bad". When I went back and listened to the recordings I felt like most of the turned out a lot better than I expected. When recording I was still kind of in the mindset that the headphones were not what I was hearing from and that I was just picking up everything from around me as normal so I was not exactly sure how the sounds would turn out, but overall I am happy with the outcome. Then with my last recording I was a little thrown off because it picked up many sounds that I do not recall hearing whatsoever when I was down by the fountain. I was pretty sure that the fountain sounded different so that kind of expanded my mind a bit in the moment. Next time I am over there I am going to walk up and see If I hear the same thing in my memory or not. Last weekend when I was there the fountains were off....
