NASCAR weekend in Chicago--first year. It was surreal, like a dream: "I went downtown and there was a NASCAR race right in the middle of the city". All the fencing looked carceral, dystopian, as if the city was on lock-down. Did some field recording. https://app.box.com/s/sh457tgvpfgbcaitwk663e9pfq25hu07
Annual Day In Our Village. Thought I'd get out the ear mics and do a sound walk. Forgot the windscreen, so too much wind noise. Starts at Austin Gardens, then to Scoville Park (festival sounds), a noisy generator, then was lucky to catch an ice cream truck playing Fur Elise (Fur El Ice). https://app.box.com/s/zbn9zj9f2zn5pcoekb0oeer40br8vn57
Chicago Loop: Michigan and Madison West to El, 6P, weather clear pleasant 75 degrees.
Binaural recording Oak Park, Illinois.
