Initially I recorded about 30 minutes worth of random converstaion with a friend. This step was done in the protools rooms in the first floor basement of CMB. I then selected segments of the conversations and edited down my material to three segments. backpack.mp3 is a condensed version of my friends communist backpack story, doneyetConvo.mp3 is segments of conversation where my friend and I talk about my project, recording issues, etc. and randomConvo.mp3 basically contains the story of my roommate Najad, as well as other bits and pieces which I couldn't classify.

After editing down the segements, I went back home, transfered the files onto my computer and tried to select a piece to play on the guitar. Eventually I decided upon using the story of my roommate Najad on the randomConvo file.

This is where the hard part began...
