Part of our Dada Sound project (February 2016) - see more at http://www.citiesandmemory.com/dadasounds

By Mat Ward. "The Original Field Recording was mixed using a number of the Dada techniques listed as part of the Cities and Memory Project. I also used an INTONARUMORI ( an instrument invented by the Futurist Luigi Russolo ) as the basis for the re-mix. Firstly I set up a PA and played the field recording into the Intonarumori. I recorded the result of original field recording and the Intonarumori being played simultaneously. This recording was then collaged with the original recording then treated with a batch of effects that were selected via chance ( I blind folded myself and picked out 3 effects from a hat that I had filled with bits of paper that had the effects written on them ). This mix was then once again played through the Intonarumori, repeating the whole process twice more."
