08:40 /November 16, 2016 / Commute / Chapel Street to Corktown Footbridge / I commute to work by bike every working day, all year long / It’s an important part of my daily routine: a form of meditation and connection to the earth / I love the fresh air and the changing soundscapes around me / This recording starts at my home on Chapel Street in Sandy Hill and turns west onto Somerset Street / You hear me … going up a steep hill on my way to the University of Ottawa campus, under construction / … gliding under a pass way where the City is building a new light rail transit (scheduled to open in 2018) / … turning onto the Corktown Footbridge (Corktown was a series of shanties along the the Rideau Canal, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, erected by Irish labourers during its construction, many of whom came penniless from County Cork in Ireland, hence its name) / … crossing over the Rideau Canal and biking along the canal pathway to downtown Ottawa //
