Helsinki/Ottawa, road/mall/street/sewer
Posted September 13th, 2007 by james4:43 minutes (5.4 MB)
A shift-sequence between Helsinki and Ottawa, moving from the breakbeat-Stockman clip, through the two Lincoln Fields mall clips, to the road/sewer clip. The opening clapping links texturally to the closing water sound; the rhythm of the footsteps closing the Helsinki clip links to the rhythm of the beeping starting the Ottawa clip; plus links between very differenct musics and voices in very different languages...

Montreal Biodome: Exhibition hall to cinema
Posted June 1st, 2007 by james0:52 minutes (1 MB)
May 16th 2007, afternoon. Montreal Biodome. Medium peopliness; high-ish sound density. Indoors.
From the main exhibition hall - voices, multiple languages, and the prominent sounds of people using the exhibits - to a small cinema, with the music and narrative of the film dominant. Closes with the sound of a group of Thai men from the film - maybe another (brief) example of one space intruding on another?

Montreal Biodome: Public viewing area, with the sound from the Antarctic Ecosystem played over loudspeakers.
Posted June 1st, 2007 by james1:08 minutes (1.3 MB)
May 16th 2007, afternoon. Montreal Biodome. high-ish peopliness; medium sound density. From an indoor space, with an adjacent indoor space emulating an outdoor space being broadcast into the space being recorded. A different kind of shift: this recording is all done in one space, without movement: the public viewing area for the Biodome's antarctic ecosystem, while an area behind glass, packed with penguins, is mic'd and being fed into the public area over two overhead loudspeakers. So this is an interior space, emulating an outdoor space, intruding on another interior space.
