While walking along Damrak in Amsterdam, I recorded the surrounding sound environment as it unfolded in relation to my moving body. The binaural recording technique captures sound as a situated and embodied experience, preserving spatial depth, directionality, and proximity as integral components of the work.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"666\" data-end=\"1019\">By recording while in motion, the work foregrounds listening as a performative act, where sound is shaped by bodily orientation, pace, and interaction with the urban environment. The resulting audio material functions not as a documentary representation of place, but as a spatial composition emerging from movement, attention, and acoustic perspective.<\/p>\n<audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-794-1\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"https:\/\/dantommi.net\/MyWorks\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/damrak.mp3?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/dantommi.net\/MyWorks\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/damrak.mp3\">https:\/\/dantommi.net\/MyWorks\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/damrak.mp3<\/a><\/audio>\n<p>____________________________________________________________<\/p>\n<p>Here is a webcam from Amsterdam nearby where I recorded my piece.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/webcam.nl\/amsterdam\/\">https:\/\/webcam.nl\/amsterdam\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Using a self-built binaural microphone, I recorded the sound environment while walking along Damrak in Amsterdam.
