Michael Ridge used a Sanyo TRC-570M Talk Book microcassette recorder and CMC A09HH tape recorder to capture chance encounters with buskers, slithers of audio cassette found on the ground (and repairing/loading into a tape shell), free furniture, and friendly volunteers in the workplace.  

Michael Cosma used the following software: Audacity and LMMS (Linux Multimedia Studio). Michael R's recordings were manipulated and cut up in Audacity, then a couple percussive tracks were made in LMMS, then put all together back in Audacity.

There are some really interesting insights and sounds in this piece. The free furniture part is particularly interesting. It can be hard to pass up free furniture especially if it is sitting in an unusual spot. There is quite a bit of free furniture on the streets of NYC. While quite a bit of it looks good, one has to be wary of bed bugs....

Defintitely free furniture can be both good & bad. My sons Grahm & Eli were always on the lookout when they lived with me.

The Electronic Cottage website is primarily an online magazine for the publication of lengthy and in-depth articles, essays, and interviews.
For those of you who use Facebook I have created an Electronic Cottage Group, which is a casual social gathering place of the EC Community, where EC people can meet, share artwork and news of current projects and releases.
The website and this EC Facebook Group are two separate but connected entities of the greater EC Community.
