Recordist's notes
This was recorded with Two Sonorous Objects SO.3 microphones plugged into a Zomm H4n pro. It is a recording of the late-night winter on our campus. This place is kind of abandoned, thus having a lot of green patches that are home to different insects and birds. At the time of recording, the weather cold and the night was long. The level of 'human activity' is almost null. Only two random guys were roaming around the campus observing the different sounds as they did for quite some time, only this time they had a recorder.
