    I made this recording of a garbage truck in front of my house one morning at about 5 am. I used a Sharp MT-15s minidisc recorder and a home-made stereo microphone with Panasonic WM-60AY mic elements. For such a set up I think the dynamic range is AMAZING. This is my favorite ambient environmental recording.

    My magnum opus (if I don't say so myself). A feedback algorithm (written using MAX, a music programming language) known as the logistics function, Xnext = rX(1-X), is used to generate a cloud of string sounds; a backdrop to a hammered din of probabilistic metallic percussion and guitar noise.
