2021.03.05 Parable the First: A Circle. (Παραβολὴ ἡ Πρώτη· Ἕνας Κύκλος.) by Hearing Beings published on 2021-03-25T04:01:21Z This is the first poetic (compositional) field recording of an intended ongoing series. Each work in this series is intended to be ‘parabolic’. This first piece comprises selections from recordings that were made from 2018 to 2021. With the exception of five component parts, the recordings are presented in their raw original form, with no post-processing (other than adjustments of levels). (Naturally, every one of the field recordings that have contributed to this composition were made by Hearing Beings: with deep love, care, and patience.)

Genre Field Recording Poiēsis (Ποίησις) Comment by Andrus Kannel There is a contradiction here. The work is documentary and at the same time artistic. However, one side amplifies the effect of the other. Great listening. 2021-07-07T10:38:27Z Comment by Douglas Langley Beautifully put together.
