Sombyšaldi - Field recording

This episode is a field recording done by PhD-student Nicola Renzi. It is exciting because is contains the sound of Sápmi, some might say it contains Sámi rhythms.Nicola Renzi is a PhD student in "History and Archaeology. Studies on Heritage, Memory and Cultures". He carries out a joint doctorate in Anthropology of Sounds between the University of Bologna and the University of Helsinki. He holds a MA in Ethnomusicology with a thesis entitled Sounds like Sápmi. Ecological perspectives in the musical narration of the landscape. His research interests revolve around indigenous acoustemologies and musical virtualizations of the landscape, focusing on the transmedia narratives produced in relation to the environmental crisis and the transformation of landscapes.Since 2018, he conducts periods of fieldwork in the indigenous territories of Arctic Europe, where he investigates the history of joik, the iconography of Sámi drums and the sonic interactions between human and non-human. He is currently working on a participatory research project aimed at collecting Sámi histories of listening and at mapping the sound and music ecosystems of Sápmi.Recordist: Nicola RenziDate: 21 June 2023Time: 14:20Location: Sombyšaldi (Stillajohka)Coordinates: 69°49'15”N 23°48'01”EWeather: Sunny, 20°CWind: 10km/hRecording equipment used:-Zoom F3 (32bit float) with Clippy EM272 (omni stereo matched pair) + BOYA blimp & windjammerRecording technique: Stereo AB 40cm spacing - 1m elevationRecording specs: F3 -> 96kHz 32 bitObservations about the soundscape: Loud rapids after the snow melt on the mountains around.
