HBM Host Jeff Emtman has always been afraid of losing his memories.&nbsp;Places he cares about keep getting torn down.In this episode, Jeff bikes around Seattle recording the sounds of a popping balloon to capture the sound of places he likes:<a href="https://digitalcollections.lib.washington.edu/digital/collection/hupy/id/5073/"> Padelford Hall’s Parking Garage</a>,<a href="https://www.bothell-reporter.com/news/mural-artist-brings-color-to-bothells-wayne-tunnel/"> The Wayne Tunnel in Bothell</a>, his old house in Roosevelt,<a href="https://www.thestranger.com/slog/2018/11/20/35871541/long-live-the-green-lake-aqua-theater"> The Greenlake Aqua Theater</a>, and his front porch on a snowy day.&nbsp;&nbsp;The sound of a popping balloon can be used to re-create a space digitally.&nbsp; These popping sounds are loud ‘impulses’, and the space ‘responds’ accordingly.&nbsp; These<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impulse_response#Acoustic_and_audio_applications"> impulse responses</a> can then be fed to an audio effect called a “<a href="https://www.izotope.com/en/learn/the-basics-of-convolution-in-audio-production.html">convolution reverb</a>” which interprets the impulse response and applies it to any incoming sound.&nbsp;&nbsp;Rick and Kathy Emtman are heard on this episode. <a href="https://www.forrestperrine.com/">&nbsp;Forrest Perrine</a> helped with some of the recordings.&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="https://www.patreon.com/HBMpodcast">Support Here Be Monsters on Patreon!&nbsp;</a>Producer:<a href="http://jeffemtman.com/"> Jeff Emtman</a>Music:<a href="https://theblackspot.bandcamp.com/"> The Black Spot</a>,<a href="https://www.lydfil.dk/"> August Friis</a>,<a href="https://music.unclassedmedia.com/"> Serocell</a>,<a href="https://phantomfauna.bandcamp.com/"> Phantom Fauna</a>Sponsor: <a href="http://omchantress.com/zines">Walk in the Woods Zine</a>Walk in the Woods is a free mini zine that you can get in the mail!
