Recordist's notes

It was recorded in the school cafeteria located between the Philosophy Faculty and the Education Faculty. It is a single room with a high celling located in the basement, so every sound rumbles with echo. We can hear groups of people talking, people putting their food in the microwaves, the actual microwaves working and their ringing when the countdown set is over. Recorded by José Miguel Pérez Aparicio. Recorded with a Zoom H4n.
