2 December An article Musique expérimentale: Micro-organismes, levures… Les instruments vivants montent le son, half of it especially around the story of the project, Living Instruments, came out in the journal Liberation. (FR)
21 Sept again from 20Min, result summary article bioindicator levels actually lower during Jazz (with no rain from 6-18July this year) ...
29 June again from 20Min, from their blog, a video! et voilà encore de Montreux! Vernex site with swimmer. Still very glad the Jazz was not put off by the first article, and happy they present it as their idea. LOL
27 April 'click-bait title' front page headline story on Montreux water quality in 20Min. Lost the whole DIT research idea, sadly, even though started from an article proposed by Maurice. But, it made a splash... & finally resulted in some response from the municipal group. The collaboration with the Jazz for monitoring this summer is happening, with the more 'green' R-Cards for E. coli and coliform counts to be used instead of the old fashioned petri dishes (see image in gallery above). The sampling campaign will go for 8 weeks of the summer from about 15June to 5 August(FR)
