about

In a an act of solidarity and devotion during the month of Ramadan, I decided to commemorate the breaking of the fast, the meal taking place after night-fall called Iftar, by going to record and share food with various creatures and of coures to practice deep listening. One day in particular, the first of the warmer days, it turned into a long capture performance action. I used 2 tecsun shortwave radios, one dictaphone, a cell-phone radio app and a walkie-talkie relay to bounce signals captured from the ether and earth atmosphere into the zoom6. I didn't have time to sink the hydrophones, since the radio propagations was good, active, exciting, the interplay between all levels of perception very good. Alert and aware, I recorded this in one session, while sitting on a stone in a nook where I snapped a photo of the swans on the cover.

I took some after multiple previews of the recording to separate them into shorter tracks for Soundcloud but also uploaded here the uninterrupted set since on Badcamp you would hear a gap breaking the continuity.
