Recordist's notes

Recording of the technical tunnel of the Polleur bridge : I'm not on the motorway but below, not on the bridge but inside. Reverb makes very noisy and unpleasant low-pitched explosions. It's a foretaste of hell, in particular with trucks shelling. 8:35 mn, will we survive to the truck ? This bridge is entirely made of steel and it's just about my favorite places. Let's go to die now, bombing raid hang over.
