Postcards from the Summer
by Rob Mackay


About the Piece

The 作品 is inspired by the 各种各样 soundscapes of the different places I visited in Europe during that summer From a farm in North Wales and the 声 of Bangor to the cities of London Bratislava Prague and Munich 

In presenting these soundscapes I have 不 知觉 tried to 唤 up the national flavour of the countries I visited although some 声 inevitably do but instead the 作品 represents snippets of my own personal experiences of these places The 听觉 图像 are 不 一定 in chronological order but instead weave a tapestry of different 声音 landscapes 

Within this 作品 I have tried to continue my interest in 变形 one 识别 声波 to another and using this 技能 to ‘travel’ from one place to another
