Listening and Recording: Mapping

I am finding it interesting the more I record the more attuned I am to hearing the sounds of the environment , and how, in some instances those sounds can be overwhelming if I focus on them (even the lapping of water at the river).  I exposed myself to  some more sound-art via the The Art Of Sound, this exhibition was a collaboration between curators of National Film and Sound Archive and  regional galleries (@Vasse Felix) http://www.nfsa.gov.au/blog/2013/06/04/art-sound-artist-rachel-coad/ I was particularly drawn to the title of , Frontier by Rachel Coad and Tank Piece No 8 by Ros Bandt ( a live improvisation in a concrete tank) which appealed to my engineering aesthetic - what a way to use a tank! and what a haunting, evocative  blend of visual and sound art. This exhibition reinforced my thoughts to link sound and print.  I had a day of recording and editing the sounds on Audacity, still trying to embed in a document (map) but for now just individual sounds on SoundCloud, the images are more prompts for me to remember the sound location or context in which I recorded,  I was pleased with  Sunday Cacophany where I manipulated four different recordings @ Il Cibo - but I am still trying to record the computer voice to overlay as a voice track. Found more mapping sound art on ubu, this one mapping the Olympic site in 2008 by Jem Finer: http://www.ubu.com/sound/finer.html
I'm trying to find Colin Black's Longing Love and Loss a the description seems to parallel what I had in mind for oral history art http://www.colinblack.com.au
