SILENCIO PARA RESCATAR

At 3:40pm today Abraham Chavelas presents ‘Silencio Para Rescatar.’

This sound piece summarizes what happened in one of the collapsed buildings after the earthquake of September 19, 2017 in Mexico City. This work honors the efforts of fellow sound engineers, sound artists, sound designers, musicians, etc., who-equipped with professional portable microphones and recorders-supported (as a large part of the population) the rescue actions by listening and detecting possible survivors below the rubble. Soundscapes recorded in the affected area called Chimalpopoca.
