Background Noises While Folding

Post by Eamon »

Do you like having background noises when you fold? What's your favorite? I like to just open the sliding glass doors, and listen to the birds chirping and the trees swaying in the wind. During terrible new England winters, I like having the T.V. on. Do you like background noises when you fold? Whats your favorite?

My favorite background for folding is either silence, so I can listen to the paper, or more often classic jazz...

Music or Audiobooks are a common choice for me whenever I'm doing creative visual arts, be it folding or drawing or painting.

Durbstuuurpp, wubwubwubwubwub.

On a serious note, I prefer silence when I fold.

I listen to classic rock when I fold.

XD Dubstep is always good. Depending on what I fold, I'll just put on the radio
I would rather fail trying than fail without trying....

I do shovel snow but my mom says "I'm not gonna let you take money from your neighbors!" I had to shovel three feet of snow off of two driveways and made nothing :x .

I usually have the radio on. Either bbc radio 4(which is documentaries, short stories, news etc.) or bbc 6 music (which is the best station in the world in my opinion, such a diverse mix of music...I'd advise everyone to check it online if you're a music fan!)
Something by Ravi Shankar is always nice and relaxing but some quality dubstep would be fine. It's not all wubbwubbwubb...
