On Boxing Day, I set out to capture the serene atmosphere of Lydbrook in the Forest of Dean. The morning was cold and misty, and I placed my Sony PCM-M10 recorder on a fence in the backyard to make an unattended, long-form field recording. The soundscape was soothing: various birdsong filled the air, their melodies sharp against the stillness, occasionally interrupted by the hum of a passing car. Six and a half minutes in, church bells chimed, marking the peaceful passage of time. It was a balm to experience such tranquillity in the countryside, a stone's throw from the River Wye.
Recordings made using Sony PCM-M10 build-in mics.

Recording made of the 'Clock Room' at the Royal Albert Memorial Museum in Exeter, March 2006
Timekeeping Exhibition – Clock Room at the Royal Albert Memorial Museum.
The room contained a variety of different timepieces from grandfather clocks and pocket-watches to more antiquated mechanisms. Not all of the clocks were producing an audible sound, but I moved slowly around the room to take in different combinations of ticking sounds. You’ll occasionally hear other people passing through the room as well as some of my lumbering footsteps.
