Sinyu Tsang wrote this about the piece: "Hong Kong Government has planned to redevelop the central of Kwun Tong, where it was claimed to be too old and cause serious traffic jams. The Yue Man Sqaure will be removed and the new town will be more high-rises and a ‘modern’ Civic Square. This will cause all the originated small business will disappear in several years.
Therefore, I do a project with field recordings in the redevelopment area in order to preserve the present life in Kwun Tong. I make a sound collage which can represent my impression towards this moment’s Kwun Tong."

Thomas Park writes about this set of recordings: "Here is a collection of phonographic recordings. All were recorded in the highest possible fidelity. They present an audio record of everyday life in my home in the Tower Grove South neighborhood, and in my larger surrounds, the city of Saint Louis, Missouri (USA)."
field recordings must be hot right now though because Numero Group just released an app based on the original Environments series: www.numerogroup.com...
In the used record market, we only ever viewed them as dead stock. If we had to take some by virtue of bidding on a collection, they went straight into the bargain bin.

Howdy Henry! First half hour is from a neighborhood in Hong Kong called Kwun Tong, documented before it's imminent redevelopment
