Recordist's notes

It's recorded using Sony PCM-D50. It’s outdoor so there is the sound of the rain. People tend to pay full attention to the start of the show, while paying less attention to the ending of a show. Thus, I want to record the latter. It’s interesting to observe how the bustling auditorium and audience slowly becomes quiet. Instead of hearing exclamation, it’s also surprising to hear a kid cry, as it might signify his or her upset of saying goodbye to the dolphins. Thus, instead of exclamation, we hear a totally different emotion in this place of leisure and recreation.
