Recordist's notes

I'm sharing a speed training in binaural recording with Donor still in the car at the bus station. Together with the experienced ilala trainer Notani Munkuli they were about to take off for the rural areas in Chinonge for a weavers workshop. Donor would be documenting the training for us while also participating in the workshop... archived at https://archive.org/details/chinonge-weavers-workshop
