It’s funny how two seemingly opposite worlds structural engineering and sound editing can both feel like home to me. On one side, there’s the meticulous, rule-driven nature of engineering, where every calculation has to be exact. On the other, sound editing feels like playing in an open sandbox, where intuition and experimentation lead the way.
For those who juggle similarly contrasting disciplines, how do you switch gears between them? Do you find that the structure of one fuels the creativity of the other, or do you keep them completely separate? I’d love to hear how others navigate this balance especially if you’ve found ways to let these skills complement each other unexpectedly.
