Soundscapes of Norrköping (16)

About the sound

This soundscape is mostly silence, the wind rustling the leaves and insects buzzing. However, the place to which this soundscape is connected to makes it interesting. This is just outside the gates of a military airbase that was suspended in 1994, called F13. The area around it today is mostly industries - completed with a manor and a herd of sheep. Some days the gates to the airstrip is open, and then one can drive around all alone on the disused airfield. Although photography and videotaping is still forbidden since there is still an enclosed area with military supplies.
