I am out of town this week and so instead of posting recordings from my garage, I’m handing the feed over to some friends who have made ten minute recordings capturing their own lives. This first Guest Garage—posted one day late because of spotty internet—is from Chicago-based designers Laura and Brad (aka Bungalow Brutal) and their kiddo Xeno (check out @bungalowbrutal on Instagram!). Laura writes,

“Today was July 4, 2022. The weather was clear and sunny, bordering unbearably hot for most Chicagoans. Today’s recording is of sounds from the Pro-Choice Abortion March at 39th and King organized and led by Kido Chicago and the Chicago Abortion Fund. You can hear individual voices of people marching, protesting, talking, sharing stories and uniting together to collectively uplift one another and protest the recent overturn of Roe v Wade.”
