It's worth reminding ourselves that ISSUE's so-far-great Isolated Field Recordings series is supposed to comprise just what the name says:  field recordings made by artists in isolation, arising out of and reflecting their experienced isolated environment.  This one is a durational piece by musician/writer Derek Baron, hunkering down in NoHo.  He suggests viewers wander in and out throughout its lengthy duration.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT:  I suppose a durational piece requires a long drink.  How about a Horse's Neck?  Pour 2 oz. Bourbon (or Brandy if you want to go back to the drink's original formulation) into an ice-filled highball glass.  Add 3 dashes of Angostura bitters, and top with (about 6 oz.) ginger ale.  Garnish with the longest orange twist you are capable of cutting.
