This film is of me having a bath. It is not particularly visually exciting but the sound qualities vary dramatically from the films of myself having a shower.
The bath is the more relaxing, time-to-think, not on-the-go convenience of the two and this is portrayed nicely through sound. The bath is quite a silent place, where one can sit down, lie down and relax. The shower is a loud place, where one has to be alert and standing and it's not so easy to get lost in one's own thoughts.
There are a few moments in the video - 14mins long [also reinforcing my want to stay in here longer] - where the sound doesn't equal the flowing movements within the bath. For example, turning around in the bath makes loud suctions sounds, and the noise of myself scratching in the bath creates a slapping sensation.
