At least half must be originally recorded by you. Up to 15 clips may be appropriated.Make a companion text document with the file name, description, and duration of each of these clips. Please note the appropriated clips. Title your clips like this: Lastname_00_description.mp3 (Example: Cage_34_drip.mp3)

Your audio work must include:At least 15 of your 30 clips. No more than half of your clips may be appropriated. Bold all of the clips you used in your text document.The work must include three distinct sections, chapters, or movements.
