Spotted on my way home from Atlanta.

I was at Georgia Tech for the day, talking to three classes about the Georgia Climate Project and how to tell stories about the impacts on the state. Part of that lesson is about using audio to tell stories.

After having the classes close their eyes, I played a piece Rob Rosenthal made and asked them to raise their hand when they started to feel tense. Just about every hand went up at some point, usually clustered near a few segments. Try it for yourself.
