11、ng recordings of birds can relieve negative emotions. After noticing an abandoned, nonworking pay phone in town, Schulman wondered if he could turn it into something appealing. He said, “I really like the old technology of just picking up a receiver, pressing one button and having something happen.”

12、 Schulman thought bringing birds sounds to the abandoned phone was a way to add a bit of nature to the neighborhood.

18、s on the wall with his hands and lifts himself to stand on top of it. His next move is a jump that lands him back on solid ground; however, noticing that he is unstable, he rolls to avoid injury.
