Recordist's notes
Nauener Platz in Berlin was recently remodeled and reconstructed by urban planners and acousticians in order to improve its ambiance – with special regard to its sonic properties. One of the outcomes of this project are several “ear benches” with integrated speakers to listen to ocean surf or birdsong.
