Recordist's notes
Here is another cafe and other shops and public spaces. I walk around and finally outside. It is difficult avoiding noises as I move because the mics are attached to my rucksack: the recorder is inside. I like the way the stereo image is intensified when close to the sound source by the 180 degree alignment of 2 omni mics 300mm apart. I choose not to edit out the accidental contact with the mics.
