“Publics is composed of home recorded material, field recordings, as well as “found sound” captured by Charles while living in Miami, FL from October 2008 to August 2010.
Side A is an assemblage of these varied recordings, altered and edited into a reflection on conflict and convolution, a personal and environmental reference to life in Miami.
Side B is comprised specifically of urban field recordings divided into segments X and Y. X consists of raw and unaltered recordings made using a broken digital voice recorder. Y is an edit of X wherein pops and clicks removed from that recording have been isolated, in effect mapping points of congruity between digital error and original sound source.” – from the label.
