<p>We gladly present our 5th issue of Field Notes that across 5 articles (with two accompanying audio works) explore the vast sound world of the Anthropocene. Starting with the collection <em>“Meters”</em> by Angus Carlyle who measures with heightened poetic senses through 20 years of his recordings in the field. Adam Diller augments his project <em>“28 Outfalls”</em> – an internationally exhibited short film about New York City’s sewer overflows – by an illustrated article and a 4-track audio work that is hereby published for the first time. With <em>“United Detachment: Recording Spaces in the Anthropocene”</em> we extend our unconventional trip through New York City by accompanying author cory ryan kasprzyk who reflects on the convoluted positions we inhabit in a world so heavily shaped by our species and only so recently shook by a world-wide pandemic. Meanwhile Bernd Herzogenrath’s essay <em>“in|human rhythms”</em> explores different artistic approaches to escape the rhythmical trappings of the Anthropocene; away from conscious control, opening towards the “nonlinear pulsation of life.” Our magazine closes with the audio paper <em>“We Never Cook for One, We Never Eat Alone”</em> that presents a cooking session by Cyanching Wu, documented by David Vélez. In the accompanying article, David creates a context to appreciate these recordings and the vibrant socio-cultural conditions in which the artists advanced them.</p>
