The bubble material (aluminum compound material) is cut to pieces, folded up and placed on a pallet truck with which it is pulled away later on. Floor protection from PVC Material is rolled up. Some parts made of wooden bars are dismantled. The space is cleaned with a broom, the waste taken out and the area is locked. Binaural recording. Recorded with a Sound Devices 702 field recorder and a modified Crown - SASS setup incorporating two Sennheiser mkh 20 microphones.
