Dear reader, from November 1999 till June 2000 this site is accessible as a place for exchange. Herewith I invite you to exchange with me. I offer you the following: a unique sound-CD with self-recorded sounds from my surroundings in Amsterdam, such as trams, poems, friends, drunkenness, but also the sound of silence of an Amsterdam night. There are 151 CDs, each one with a different recording. I would like to exchange one of these CDs with you for an object. An item with which you can tell me something about your surroundings. An item you use in your daily life or you have found by accident, something that fascinates and asks questions. It could be that such an object is too beloved to lose forever, in that case it is also possible to exchange temporarily. But first look at the received objects or listen, if your connection is quick enough, to samples of the recordings. Sincerely, Matthijs de Bruijne
