Me,
I am curious to try some unusual things like making 5 minute recordings on
the hour every hour for weeks off my porch, etc., things like that...
...andsince I work making products that can do this sort of thing it's a fun
project idea! :)
Of course, with our daughter just hitting two months my ability to take on
really adventurous projects is limited... but this one could be in the
afternoon-of-effort category I think... :)
