1:04:07 – Ten years ago I recorded a series of audio journal entries and field recordings, burned the audio tracks onto three CDs, and stored them away with a bunch of other stuff. For a long while I forgot where they were, and had pretty much resigned myself to the belief that they were lost forever. Recently two of them have been rediscovered; the third is still missing. This is the first CD. The contents of the second CD will soon be released, and if the third CD ever turns up I’ll release it as well.

The recordings were made on an old cell phone, and the sound quality is not great… but I offer this up as an important part of my personal history.

Recorded 5/20/08 through 5/26/08. RFS 181.
