Listening Log

Undertaken on Elgin Av, London, on 30 May, 2026 at 18:43. For the duration of the video essay, environmental sounds were documented from a fixed position using the project’s notation system. In contrast to the sonic drifts presented within the project, this log remains static, mirroring the reflective nature of the essay itself. The resulting notation records the accumulation of sounds within a single place over time.
