Audio Collage
The audio collage presented some technical challenges, but once those were overcome the project was enjoyable and effective. The audio medium was able to convey the tension in the controversy better than any other medium so far with the use of suspense music and fragmented conversation.
The intent of the crowd talking at the beginning is to show the conversation that is going on about the organization and the documents. The organization is about stopping secrets and opening up governments. The first half of the audio is introducing the listener to the conversation, and the second half is reminding the listener that truth is questionable, and that secret must be kept a secret.
This project highlights the different kinds of truth and how malleable it is. One must always keep this in mind when dealing with claims such as those of Wikileaks.
