a remembering regularJOE post

Joe was a dedicated recordist of everyday life and a wonderful listener. His was an original voice in discussions about what it means to record everyday life in sound; he approached field recording with curiosity; and he was very sensitive to how sounds are intimately bound up with the lives of people. Many of his projects explicitly connected sounds with social history, and he was always inventing new ways to engage communities through sound’.
