Postkort fra 2046: A License for Rain

A License for Rain

iben,

so the client came back. eleven weeks of me out at all hours with the rig — the gutters on istedgade, the tattoo needle downstairs through the floorboards, that specific gull that screams at 05:20 like it's being audited — and he says, and i am quoting, "could we just run it through the licensed ambience set instead, for clearance reasons."

clearance reasons. the rain outside my window needs clearance.

i said sure, send me the set. it's fine. it's beautiful. it's got forty thousand hours of rain in it and not one drop of it fell on anything. you can hear the absence. it's like a room with no corners. he can't hear it. nobody in the meeting could hear it, they were all half-present anyway, three of them piped in on those low-bandwidth presence rigs that make everyone sound like they're being polite from inside a fridge.

it rained properly here last night. i left the window open and the mic running and i'm not billing anyone for it.

anyway. i'm annoyed, i'm behind, i'm wearing the green coat from the genbrug on onkel dannys plads that you said made me look like a municipal inspector. i miss you. berlin better be feeding you.
