Yes. While it’s great for contributors to submit two sounds, we can take on your field recordings and produce a ‘memory’ version ourselves or pass them on to our community of sound artists, so please do submit them. However, we currently have a queue of dozens of sounds waiting to be reimagined, so if you do submit a field recording on its own, it might be a few weeks before we can get to it.

"As this wave from memories flows in, the city soaks it up like a sponge and expands. A description of [the city] as it is today should contain all [the city's] past. The city, however, does not tell its past, but contains it like the lines of a hand, written in the corners of the streets, the gratings of the windows, the banisters of the steps, the antennae of the lightning rods, the poles of the bags, every segment marked in turn with scratches, indentations, scrolls."
