Recordist's notes
Quiet ambience, birds singing, person passing by, light traffic. Recorded by Strataki Maria, using a ZoomH5 portable recorder. As part of my thesis, my intention was to create a soundmap, picturing the sounds of my city, during the month May. You can find more recordings of the specific site at https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1zBHEJpNlZ4TDC-o42qCPiiBJFSasRabf?usp=sharing .
