Recordist's notes

J'ai mis 10 minutes à localiser ce criquet , à cause de nombreuses zones de réflexion, finalement il était caché à l'ombre de l'éclairage public près d'une bordure de trottoir dans un caniveau, je n'ai pas pu le voir. A 500m les musiciens déchaînés du Festival Ours en scène, et le public font un raffut chaotique. Situation acousmatique écoute sans voir. Enregistreur Zoom H4 posé horizontalement sur la route.
