Benjamin J Mansavage Klein

Part of the drinking water for Hartford, Connecticut is supplied from five
small reservoirs built into the wooded hills surrounding Talcott Mountain
west of the city. This area is also a popular spot for hiking, biking and
picnics. Since the sounds for Reservoir were recorded on a bluff overlooking
reservoir 3, there are traces of airplanes, mosquitoes, birds and cicadas in
the samples. Reservoir is interactive; playback and volume can be
controlled by manipulating the sample array.
