this edition of framework:afield is the latest annual edition curated in 
the netherlands by raviv ganchrow:

'Binaural Ambience Study The Hague', 00:55:59, binaural audio

! Please listen with headphones ! The following recordings have been 
produced with binaural methods and require headphone playback for 
spatial accuracy.

The following broadcast contains a sequence of binaural ambiences culled 
from The Hague's urban environment. The piece forms an interlinked 
trajectory from The Hague Central Station to the Scheveningen coast, 
creating a meandering aural section through the cities urban ambiences. 
Each zone along the trajectory is explored by an individual recordist 
reacting upon the inherent qualities of their site. The resulting work 
reveals not only a range of atmospheres but also a polyphony of auditory 
approaches to urban sounding.

Binaural recording techniques employ in-ear microphones to capture a 
spatial complexity of environmental acoustics intersecting at the 
listener. Carefully choreographed recording and audio montage techniques 
structure, intensify and at times disrupt the innate qualities of this 
particular audio format of embodied hearing. The following sequence 
explores these diverse auditory qualities and spatial agencies 
encountered by The Hague's first-person listeners.

This piece was realized by participants of Raviv Ganchrow's Aural 
Tectonics workshop at the Institute of Sonology, The Hague, in Spring, 
2019.  Aural Tectonics explores the site-specificity and 
context-dependency of sound by fostering a critical awareness of, and 
attitude towards, environmental ambiance. Founded in a practice-based 
approach, the workshop develops site-dependent strategies for listening, 
recording, mapping, audio synthesis and sound intervention. Each year a 
particular site is chosen around which a sequence of intensive projects 
are developed. Within that framework, diverse approaches to 'hearing 
place' are fostered by adopting locational modes of listening and 
encouraging individual approaches to contextual ambiance.

Participants:
Miro Bollen, Margherita Brillada, Quirijn Dees, Willem van Erven Dorens, 
Abel Fazekas, my name is not mata, Lucie Nezri, Kaðlín Ólafsdóttir, 
Filip Sternal, Anna-Lena Vogt

Audio Mastering:
Lucie Nezri

This recording was completed in the Gemeentemuseum, Den Haag, with 
courtesy of Astrid Hulsmann. It is a one-take recording that involves no 
sound editing techniques. The purpose was to compose a route through the 
museum employing the building's natural fade-in / fade-outs as it would 
be artificially edited. The recording moves through five different 
room/halls of the museum.
