{"value"=>"<p>The bulk of this series consists of field recordings, some of which were source material for the <span class=\"title\">Environments</span> series released on Syntonic Research. These include such sounds as rain, thunder, insects, ocean surf, streams, wind, birds, frogs, rain forests, swamps, ski slopes, meadows, sail boats, and heartbeats, as well as several of the Be-In events in Central Park. Most of these were recorded in the northeastern United States, but some were recorded in England, Peru, and Puerto Rico. Teibel also recorded urban sounds, such as the Flatiron, West Village, and Lower East side neighborhoods of New York City; traffic; subway trains; steam trains; race cars (some at Watkins Glen Raceway); motorboats; airplanes; children at play; and carnivals.</p> <p>Also present are Teibel's experiments with sound composition and synthesizers; radio interviews of Teibel; Teibel's edits of a speech by Richard Nixon; Teibel's children as infants; performances by the pianist/scholar Raymond Erickson released on Syntonic Research; performances of the music of Kirk Nurock; lectures by the neuropsychologist Louis Gerstman; the Apollo 15 mission (recorded off of television broadcasts); copies of a recording of Robert Kennedy's assassination; and an alleged recording of Bigfoot. In addition, the collection contains safety copies of mixed (but not mastered) tapes of some Syntonic Research releases.</p>"}
