Recordist's notes

Schizophone Vielfalt widersprüchlicher Klänge: Tram, Zug, Flugzeug, Autos, Brunnen, Grillen... Der Ort zwischen Schrebergärten, Fragmenten des geplanten Parks, einer ins Nirgendwo führenden Fussgängerbrücke und Baustellen ist um diese Zeit menschenleer. Ein tiefer, elektrisch gefärbter Drone ist nicht ortbar, teilweise vielleicht von der vielbefahrenen Pfingstweidstrasse stammend. Grillen sowie ein isoliet dastehender Brunnen werden vom Fade-in und Fade-out eines Zuges (links), eines Trams (rechts) sowie eines Flugzeugs (oben) maskiert.
