Sounds

Sound - is all around us. In that sound there are messages. Some have an aesthetic of their own. There are some sounds that capture a moment, and others that capture an era. 

It is a curious twist of fate that as the technology for field recording becomes more accessible, better performance and easier to use, the world becomes more noisy. Noise is unwanted sound - from traffic, from airplanes, from cellphones, from people, from dogs. Of course, what is noise to some is sound to others...

Open you ear to some sounds and their stories
