who? [the person/group that worked on it]: Alex and Emm

the idea

set a time without a specific reason

contrasting experience

the result

it's happening exactly at the same time, but in a total different place

feeling of displacement

you are here and there

the listeners are in three different places at the same time (where they sit, alex position and emm position)

feedbacks

Sth that worked:

overlapping of voices

being in different places while listening (physically + mentally)

episodes format gives a lot of structure and at some point feel familiar

structure vs openness

it was clear from the start

contrast of situations

set the ground at the beginning to position the audience

layering worked well in the sounds mixing but not with voices that should be legible

liked the episode structure, was accessible

links to the environment worked

Sth that could still be worked on:

balance of sound of voices/volume of environmental sounds

moments of clarity/legibility of the approach

clear

timestamp (protocol) should be clearly presented

wished more confrontation between situations (could be because of cuts)

more listening between two contributions?

+

gives a rhythm to the whole piece

set the ground at the beginning with the introduction
the different tones of voice position in different mental places
two people in a different place, home-travelling, contrasting experiences
episode structure

-

audio levels
time and place need to be clearer to hear, voices are meant to be legible
add a unified piece at the beginning like "day one" to set the space for the audience
