In anticipation of a sentimental journey (ev2)

In summer of 2010 ev2 will embark on a sentimental journey through France and Italy. The idea is to follow the route taken by Yorick and to create a library of field recordings from sounds and places mentioned in the book. We may take on the role of Yorick and Le Fleur and we will take with us a sopranino sax, a bohdran, lots of recording equipment, fluffy and pandora

There are 5 other purposes to this trip:

1) capture street music (live) or broadcast music (radios)

2) investigate micro and macro phonography at each place

3) create a series of cameos in response to each place using sopranino sax and drum (similar to Trono LINK)

4) Illicit song and laughter for children and adults using a similar process to 'Say Something' (LINK)

5) generally seek and provoke a philosophy of pleasure - embodying the central premise of this piece - and record that through sound, music and experience
