Recordist's notes
The wind in the trees. Birds busy. Definitively more than two, maybe four, more? The calmness. The waves of winds coming and going. It´s not warm, but neither cold. Good I have a jacket on. That tree in the middle, why has it that leaning pole? The common fields behind. Children must love it here. But not today. There´s a plane in the sky. With people. Where do they come from? Tourists, going to the high mountains? Focused listening, global listening. I lose my focus often. It is calm and safe here. More warm inside of course, but I will come back there soon. Good with the air here in Jämtland. Breathing the air from the mountains. Good. Keep doing it. Listening. Recording. Now waves again. Am I at the sea? The crow reminds me not. But definitely calm waves. Of wind. In the trees.
