Public sofas… Why not?

The first time I visited Berlin, the area I stayed in gave me this feeling of calm and coziness such that I'd want to come back. I see more layers now after spending time in other neighbourhoods, but nice to connect with an old feeling by revisiting this moment.

My time there definitely gave me an appreciation for public spaces, as they aren't so common in other places I've visited. And yeah, public sofas… Why not?

This is one I learned in my second year of university. Music is often considered subjective, but I'm not sure how wide the spectrum is to label the emotions around this one. Would anyone call this light-hearted? I would consider it more dramatic or intense. The ways of creating 'crunch' here have definitely fed into my improvisation; I think it's an approximation of the beautifully imprecise blue notes we can effect more easily with the human voice, compensated for this instrument made of buttons.

]]> celebration, Asyut https://rosano.ca/vibrations/m0xk1sk1/ Wed, 11 Sep 2024 07:46:52 +0000 https://rosano.ca/vibrations/m0xk1sk1/ I was walking by this house and stopped when I heard music. It was quite a sensation to hear such powerful sounds coming from a door. I didn't know what the context was, but someone might have explained to me later that it was a marriage-related celebration. Egypt and Brazil have two of my most favourite music cultures. During my personal travels between 2018–2020, I recorded one minute of ambient sound in various places to practice being still and appreciating what's around me, especially the so-called 'noise' which, although often ignored, can be quite rich when paying closer attention. The photos are just for fun and not necessary.
