peru quarantine soundscape

Since the start of the quarantine in Peru I have been putting a small recorder out on my windowsill to capture a moment in time that has been a mental and sonic journey more than a physical or visual one. It has been strange, mundane, horrible and beautiful in equal proportions. Here is soundscape in chronological order that is structured to capture my experience on Calle Porta, Miraflores, Peru. The music is from wandering musicians that have taken to the streets to busk and earn money. The background to the entire soundscape is one of the largest surf swells of the year recorded around 5AM at first light.

  1. Realmente , precioso y duro ! Caminamos entre el dolor , a veces sin conceder ni una sonrisa que cuesta tan poco . Has condensado tantas cosas , sentimientos, belleza , realidad , cultura y lucha diaria , que me parece un trabajo maravilloso.
    Sinceramente, enhorabuena por tanta sensibilidad y paciencia!! .
