AMP: Artists' Meeting Place and Resource Collective

Dear People,

I am a young sound artist from Belgium, and I'm currently building a new installation called Soundtracks.

And to build the installation, I need your help. The idea behind soundtracks is to build an archive of memories of sound. Memories of sounds that were important to you, that struck you or stayed with you. Soundtracks wants to research which kind of sounds get remembered, and how they are remembered. Can we hear those sounds again in our heads, or can we only remember the circumstances of the situation; the outlines, the edges of the sound?

And that's why I would like to ask you to take a moment and try to find your recollection of a sound, a sound that was important to you.
