## Resource

"I shared the quiet, non-mechanical sounds from old town Shanghai with Ruth Tsang to prompt her childhood memories of leaving the city in May 1949. Rhythmic patterns extracted from the field recording were used to shape a loose structure for the oral history." Shanghai street soundscape reimagined by Emiko Morita.
