Emperor Penguins

Description

At the Osaka aquarium, there was a section that houses some emperor penguins. The biggest thing to note is the camera shutters from the digital phones. In Japan, the right to your privacy is extremely important. So there is a law that says that cameras and phones must make a noise when they take a picture so that the photographer is not displaying sneaky behaviours.

Transcription

There is a soft piano being played, while accompanied by some wood wind instrument for more logato notes, off to the side as you can hear a few, high pitched screeches as the emperor penguins will make noises. Then another video starts up, depicting a video of a crew of sailors and their expierence at see. There is the soft murmur of voices speaking Japanese further away from the recorder. You can also hear the false shutter sounds of digital phones being used to take pictures of the emperor penguins, the patter of feet as people walk past, a few coughs, and then the penguins will screech a few more times.
