The sounds of cloth and pillow being struck, stabbed, and manipulated reverberate through the empty space of the library. Each sound is captured with precision by the omnidirectional and mid-side microphones, ensuring that every detail is preserved for future use.

These contrasting sounds provide a rich tapestry of textures and tones, showcasing the versatility of cloth and pillow as sound-making materials.
As the omnidirectional microphone captures the impact of a fist hitting a cloth pillow, the soft, muffled sound of the fabric being compressed fills the room.

Switching to the mid-side microphone, the sound of a knife being stabbed into a cloth pillow is captured in stunning detail. The microphone picks up the unique qualities of the sound, from the initial puncture to the sound of the blade being pulled out.

Returning to the omnidirectional microphone, the sound of a fist hitting a cloth pillow is captured once again. This time, the microphone is positioned in a slightly different location, capturing a new perspective on the sound. The impact of the fist against the fabric creates a different timbre and quality, showcasing the versatility of the material as a sound-making tool. The rich, resonant tone of the cloth pillow reverberates through the space, enveloping listeners in a cocoon of sound that is both comforting and energizing.
Shifting back to the mid-side microphone, the sound of a knife being stabbed into a cloth pillow is recorded once more.
