Landfill Harmonic

Talia Jellinek-Knight

Through this exercise I learned how the tightness of a string affects its pitch and how you can manipulate strings to alter their pitch. I also learned a bit about resonance and how the amount of space in an object changes how it sounds. Lastly, I figured out how to use GarageBand to mix music, which is something I had always wanted to do but never knew how.
