The audio titled "In the Hat" begins with the crisp sound of a hat being handled, likely a thick material such as felt or wool. Then, a processed auditory effect, which seems to replicate the sensation of placing the hat over one's ears, muffles the ambient noise. This gives an immersive, almost cocoon-like feeling as if you're indeed wearing a hat. The sound effect gradually fades into the background, and the sharpness of the everyday sounds slowly returns to normal. The audio playfully toys with the concept of a hat not just as a fashion accessory but also as a device that can alter our perception of the auditory environment.
