How Sound effects Us

Due to manner of my project i feel its important to look at how sound effects us and see if this could play a part in my project.

All sounds that are distracting, annoying, or harmful to everyday activities such as work, rest, entertainment, study and so forth are regarded as noises. In fact, any sound judged by the recipient as undesirable can be considered as a noise. Whether or not a sound is undesired by a person will depend on a number of factors, e.g.

• Loudness.

• Frequency.

• Background noise level.

•  Origin of the sound.

• Recipient's state of mind and temperament.

• Time of occurrence.

• Information content.

While this doesn't factor heavily into my project it is worth noting.
