Notes:
"DVD: Skyros Carnival 2004 ... glimpses of participants 'becoming' as the staging and performance of carnival is revealed through a dialogue of sounds, still (black and white) and moving (color) images. Video by Stephen Feld, with photographs by Dick Blau; edited by Jermiah Ra Richards."--Colophon.
"CD: Voices of the bells ... carnival bells shape the acoustics of space and time, passing near and far with a mounting excess of repetitions, noise and density. Three sound essays bear witness to bells' capacity to bring out or drown voices and music, creating new forms of sonic intimacy. Recordings by Steven Feld; mixed by Bill Boaz."--Colophon.
