Working on an intervention based around a generous act, this collaborative group of students built dual field recording devices to be used by two different groups of people in separate locations, at the same time. Each steel framework functions as a musical instrument and recording device, recording separate but simultaneous moments. The audio tracks are then imported and played back on top of each other—affording both groups of separate participants the ability to experience their interactions at once.
