a short extract from the on-going teleferica project & forthcoming release

in progress....

teleferica

recordings of teleferica wires around a small village in northern italy

in the coming weeks i'll be releasing quite a few recordings, mostly as digital download releases - these are works that have been 'waiting' and still feel of worth in various ways - or at least to represent moments of listening.

this is basically a clearing of decks - a need to place some punctuation at this point, as I move forward and become more and more engrossed in various ways of listening and living.

there are some 'in progress' recordings that i'll take forward from here, including:

. audible silence: weaves
. still, on the littoral
. bethlehem wires
. teleferica
. room tones
. (dust) | celestine
