Recordist's notes

Street scene on the Rue de la Comète looking at the part demolished area around the Eglise du Gesù de Bruxelles, recording next to a temporary plastic-wrapped sign directing pedestrians away from road works rustling in the breeze, round the corner from excitable visitors in the Hostel Van Gogh.
