The Solitude of the sound recordist 

Radio broadcast on Montez Press Radio, New York 
The text Nature is noise is written and read by musician and philosopher Agnès Gayraud https://radio.montezpress.com/#/show/2268 

This composition is based on the creation of a sound paradox: being inside a body while perceiving sound  fragments based on external recordings: a transition between reality and the projection of a mental image in a  fictitious sound space, becoming an almost meditative moment.

The Solitude of the Sound Recordist

My sound practice is based on field recording sessions where I try to capture the singularity of each soundscape. 
The choice of the recording place determines the nature of the sounds - because each space has its own sound imprint.
Field recording is a confrontation between the interior and the surrounding outside space(s). The sound recordist sculpts with the sounds that pass through him/her and his/her microphones. 
These moments of solitude create a necessarily intimate link with the space and its context: between the nature of the field recordings and the places of broadcasting.
I am inspired by the works of sound artist Knud Viktor, who essentially targets the soundscape of nature as well as sound installations by artists Janet Cardiff and George Bures Miller.
