Recordist's notes
Pedestrians and a siren. This recording touches me as a little audio document of the pre-Christmas season, because of the unknown child at the end, who talks about watching "a really nice christmas film". I particularly like the rhythmic sequence of (1) the last note of the siren, (2) the slamming car door and (3) the car horn. Binaural recording - unfortunately a bit noisy because of the wind.
