Oxford lockdown sound reimagined by Eva Mansson.

"Without air, we cannot breathe. 

"The wind, unlike so many other sources of energy, is free and never ending.

"Combining the drone of a wind turbine in Oxford with my own whistling (breath), two sounds in all, my re-mix is an attempt to capture some of the essence of this energy we all take for granted, but that a virus is doing it’s best to take away from us;
Our breath.

"Software used: Fieldscaper and Audacity"
