Recordist's notes

It was recorded at the Institute of Materials, associated to the CSIC. We can hear the noise that the vacuum pump machine from one the laboratories makes while it’s working. It has a tube connected to the pump that absorbs the air from the place where it’s directed. Its use is common in most of the laboratories. Recorded by José Miguel Pérez Aparicio. Recorded with a Zoom H4n.
