Opening and Closing of a Metal Lid

The recording starts with the distinct sound of a metal lid being opened. This action generates a resonating squeaky noise that fills the field, evoking an image of a rusty, heavy metal door being unlatched. The squeak of the metal is sharp and high-pitched, a clear testament to the material's rigidity and strength. The opening sound gradually subsides, leaving an echoing trace of its presence in the air. Following the opening, there's a brief pause, a moment of anticipation that hangs heavy in the silence before being replaced by the reversing action. The closing of the lid. The closing sound is similar yet distinct, marked by the same squeaky rub of metal against metal, but now with a finality to it. It is a sound that signifies an end, a closing off. The squeak slowly fades, absorbed by the surrounding field as the metal lid settles back into its closed position. The recording ends, leaving behind the fading echoes of the metal lid's opening
