Firelight While It Storms Outside · 3 Hours for Sleep and Study

A stone cottage with the shutters open to the weather. The fire has burned down to the stage where it no longer roars but still throws light across the floor, and the rain against the glass keeps a slower time than the crackling behind you. Best with the screen dimmed and the volume low — the mix is built with the quiet parts intact, so it should sit under your attention rather than on top of it. There is a slow fade in at the start and a long fade out at the end. About this recording — the audio here is synthesised from scratch rather than sampled: filtered noise layers and scattered transients, generated continuously so the three hours never loop back on themselves. The scene is painted the same way, in code. Nothing in this video is stock footage or a stock sound library. fireplace · rain · crackling fire · sleep · study
