The idea of taking sounds came to me, when I visited a pagoda in Ho Chi Minh City.
In the praying hall stood a golden buddha statue. In front of it were wooden bowls filled with limes and oranges: sacrifices for the buddha.
Following my typical tourist routine, I snapped a photo of it and sat down on the floor. Then I noticed the music. Like every other tourist, I could have just taken my pic and be done with it. But this buddha statue came with its own soundtrack.
I opened up the Voice Memos app on my phone and took my first sound.
