The ArtCast this week is a taster of what's to come over the next seven weeks:

Involution is a soundscape composition assembled from recordings of various urban and rural environments. The recordings have been made using binaural microphones worn in the ears so that when the recordings are played back over headphones the listener hears an almost exact recreation of the sounds heard by the recordist. The sounds are externalized, heard as originating outside of the head unlike most recordings heard over headphones.

This is the first of four weekly podcasts in association with moves08, in which audio and video art exploring the theme of this year's moves festival, the interaction of movement and sound, has been selected from an international open call.
