Hi everyone 
We had a blast last Thursday at our beta-testing workshop! We tried a variety of ways to change our perception of sound while crunching on some chips: earplugs, paper cups, and a big plastic sphere over our head.
Rebecca noticed the earplugs amplifies low frequencies, the cups amplify medium frequencies, and the sphere amplifies high frequencies. Chips sounded crunchier in a sphere!
Being conscious of the sound of our eating helped us slow down and be more mindful. There are also many benefits to eating slower, both for our teeth and our digestion! Between our passion for food, playing together with our peers and working on this project, we’ve hit all 4 P’s of the creative learning pedagogy.
Fun facts:
- @Saffana pointed out that eating and making noise are usually frowned upon in libraries. So this is definitely an activity for the rebellious librarian!
- If you’re looking for a book connection, @clarahendricks recommends “I hear a pickle” by Rachel Isadora.
