Recordist's notes

A stationary recording from a window overlooking the Mosteiro de Tibães. The soundscape captures a recurring, high-pitched "artificial bird" sound originating from the ongoing refurbishment of the monastery-museum, alongside broader construction and restoration noises. The recording documents the intersection of mechanical activity and the quiet atmosphere of the historic monument grounds. Recorded with a Zoom H6 and Micbooster microphones. 21°C and Sunny, 5.4 km/h.
