The Stone Tape Phil

- Historia
The Stone Tape theory is the speculation that ghosts and hauntings are analogous to tape recordings, and that mental impressions during emotional or traumatic events can be projected in the form of energy, "recorded" onto rocks and other items and "replayed" under certain conditions.
I’m interested in the every day events. Those vernacular experiences. Life going on as normal. I am the stone tape that records these moments.
I find it very calming to listen back and remember the nuances of the moment.
Feel free to eves-drop on the past and imagine what caused all of those little sounds.

Long summer storm
Saturday 8th July 2023, just after teatime. A long recording that I can curl up and read a book to. Recorded in my increasingly leaky shed, it’s a storm of many parts. Light rain, heavy rain and the occasional roll of thunder. The drips from my shed roof almost form a rhythm near the end.. but not quite.

Beeston Tor Farm
Recorded between 04:30 and 06:00. The recording was made half way up the side of the valley. You can hear the natural echo from the cliff face on the opposite side of the valley. You may also be able to hear the call of the peregrine falcons that nest in that cliff face.

Thunderstorm 28th July 2021
Recorded in my shed. Somercotes, Derbyshire. There is some clipping on the loudest of the thunder claps, sorry about that.
