I met with Dylan again on 29th March, before this meeting I had not done much research or recording, because I did not know what I was looking for in terms of my research. In the tutorial, Dylan helped me through some of the questions I had.

The research areas in which I now need to research are Genre:- I need to decide whether it is an Experimental piece, as well as whether it is formalist or naturalistic – I also need to research to find out what these terms mean. I also need to research my subject, which will include taking photos of the route I will be taking through Lincoln. I will also need to research any legal or ethical issues with my recordings – most notably, any buskers that I might record on my way through Lincoln. I will also be doing some technical research, if I use any websites or YouTube videos to help me through the editing process of the soundscape, then I can use that and put that towards my research. Dylan also mentioned that I should research a budget of what I am going to be using because if I was not doing this for a university project and was hired to do this for a client, then I would need a budget, some of the items on the budget will need to include the price of a Zoom recorder, cost of the editing software, maybe train tickets, depending if I needed to travel to another city, and also my hourly rate for doing the job.
