This audio recording captures the distinct sound of a microwave door being shut. Recorded on December 9, 2013, the sound encapsulates a mundane, everyday activity, lending it a unique perspective. The sound was captured using an Olympus LS10 in XY mode, a technique that produces a well-defined stereo image. The audio transports the listener to the field or location where the sound was captured, thus, making it a field recording. It immerses the listener in the soundscape, creating an atmosphere of being in a real-life setting. The closing of the microwave door is captured with precision, making it a valuable addition to the world of noise recordings. This audio piece is a testament to the close recording capabilities of the Olympus LS10, capturing even the most subtle sounds. The recording, made at Leuphana, is a fine example of the power of capturing and appreciating everyday sounds.
