Lind, Raud by Yannick Dauby

Phonographies of Birds and Metal, Estonia June 2007.

These sounds have been gathered in rural environments of Estonia, during a residency with Wan-Shuen Tsai, visual artist and poet, at MOKS, Center for Art and Social Practices, in Mooste. The tracks entitled "Raud" were recorded using contact microphones on metal structures found in ruined building from the Soviet era.
All my gratitude goes to John Grzinich who was my guide to the Estonian landscapes.
Many thanks to the friends who told me about the northern light, the ancient forests and the melodious language of this area : Evelyn Müürsepp, Michael Northam, Patrick McGinley, Hitoshi Kojo and Derek Holzer. Thanks also to Maksims Shentelevs, architect and sound artist, Kalevi Kull, biosemiotician, and Fred Jüssi, Estonian pionneer of nature sound recording, for our friendly meetings and fascinating discussions. Project supported by Centre Culturel Français de Tallin.
