Recordist's notes

Looking at the Spirit of Belfast, you will know you’re at a local stop for shopping. Most of the time there will be a performer or musician in this circle, grabbing the attention of shoppers, there will be your fast walkers, your slow walkers, those who zoom past you with their bicycle. On this day, nothing. Only a few instances of signs of civilization.

Written by Georgios Varoutsos on radio aporee ::: maps.
