Take a one-minute vacation."One-minute vacations are unedited recordings of somewhere, somewhen. Sixty seconds of something else."
Ooh ooh, I love these, thanks! I actually have one up there (under my real name, which I'm not tellin').
The guy who put this together used to run a wonderful series in the SF Soma district in which one would listen to the work of visiting sound artists while lounging about in the dark on pillows. It was truly magical. Once they even played "9-Beet Stretch" (if I recall the name correctly), a recording of Beethoven's 9th stretched out to 24 hours (stretched in terms of length, but not in terms of pitch).
