Title

Francisco Lopez and Buildings' Metabolism [Interview]

Description

Artist Francisco Lopez's commentary and explanation about the noises and sounds he recorded within buildings. He discusses the potential of machines and the sounds of buildings, and views these sounds as physiological components to a much larger system, much like within a human body. These noises are in many ways what breathes "life" into these seemingly inanimate and lifeless structures.
