10 minutes by car from my house there three wind turbines on top af a hill. I’ve been planning to go there for a little while. Yesterday I had the opportunity to go and the weather was with me.
I wanted to listen to the towers using my LOM audio Geofon’s - and did so on track 1, 2 and 5. Track 3 and 6 are stereo recordings from right underneath the wings and track 4 is from a shed approximately halfway between the turbines…

1 Wind Turbines Geofon And Ambient Sound

In the dark rays
Beyond the shadows of bliss
Remind you softly - everything upheld for too long meant to be freed and the kindness will be composed.

An interpersonal relationship is ultimately a story of distance. In a lifelong dance of secrets, contemplation and self-absorption, only a rare moment of unity, a scarce connection punctures the solitude. Thus, even a story of love, friendship or family is always a striving towards understanding, a constant seeking of honesty amidst the untold, a faithful yearning for connection against all odds.

Dunya is the creative partnership between Georgian artist FH HF and Tunisian artist Anasisana. 'Pay It Forward', the result of a long-distance collaborative effort, is an 8-piece album fusing the differing techniques of the two creators. Translating into 'Life' from Arabic, Dunya invites the listener to a communion, a connection to the senses.

How beautiful shines 
To me, the nature! 
How the sun glows! 
How the mead smiles!

Blossoms penetrate 
From each branch 
And a thousand voices 
Out of the shrubbery

And joy, and joy 
From each breast. 
O earth, o sun,
O joy o lust!

O love, o love!
As golden, as beautiful 
As the morning clouds 
On those heights

You bless gloriously 
The fresh field
The blossoms’ steam 
The bountiful world.

O girl, girl
How I love you! 
Your eyes gaze! 
How you love me!

This is the way the lark loves 
Song and air
And morning flowers
The smell of heaven

How much I love you, 
My blood warmed
By you, for me, a youth, 
And joy and courage

For new songs
And dances
May you be happy eternally 
As long as you love me.
