Windows
4.8/5
Critic Rating
To watch the world pass by from your home’s window is an intimate experience: at once deeply personal and yet universal, cinematic even, at times. Although we all do it, when was the last time someone asked you, sincerely; what do you see when you look outside your window?

"This simple challenge brings up memories and lofty thoughts alongside tiny, mundane observations. I could not not close my eyes listening. It’s very Strangers on a Bench, it finds surprising beauty and intimacy in the mundane and random things that surround us. We learn so much about these guests."

"Windows reminds me a little of Where Are You Going?, a podcast based on a single question put to strangers which yields fascinating snapshots of human life. While D’Avoine and Armah could dig deeper with their interviews — I wanted to know more about Rock’s art and the gathering of her materials — the sound design, which interweaves music and the everyday sounds we normally tune out, is truly lovely."
