Recordist's notes

This recording, captured with a Tascam DR-05, features the prominent sound of cicadas at the Centro Andaluz de Arte Contemporáneo (CAAC) in Sevilla. The persistent buzzing chorus of these insects fills the air, a common sound in Sevilla's warmer months. The recording highlights the natural soundscape within the art center's surroundings, offering a sonic layer to the architectural space.
