ten minutes in a Californian bush (2012)

This is an unedited field recording that focuses on the constant changes in proximity to sounds. A pair of DPA 4060s are placed in a bush that is attracting bees. The mics stay put with the bees coming and going forming natural sonic swells. This recording was made in Davis, California in a man-made Arboretum. The bush is in between a walking and cycling path and therefore catches random conversations as people move by. I was trying to capture the sense of sonic layers that were evident in the space with the bees in the foreground, the people, the constant hum of traffic and the more distant traveling sounds that come into focus and leave rather quickly.
