We're beginning to collect field recordings now.

If you'd like to contribute any bird songs, other animal noises, elemental background (water, wind, etc) or anything nature-related to the sound collage I'm composing (to be housed inside lifeboat), please send mp3 files to:

clark@artifacture.org

Thanks!
