Recordist's notes

In the passageway, reflections from the ceiling, floor, and walls create a flutter echo that modulates all sounds in the space. Certain frequencies resonate and are thus amplified, so that a simple clap takes on a tonal character — here approximately a G. In this way, the space transforms into an acoustic instrument that visitors can explore playfully.
