A hash function is any well-defined procedure or mathematical function which converts a large, possibly variable-sized amount of data into a small datum, usually a single integer that may serve as an index into an array.

With this work a recording of 13 hours from a rucksack, during a travel trough a foreign country was cutted into small pieces of most significant contents and contructed together as a sort of Hash of the piece, but the rythmical structure sometimes comes more significant, than content. The "L" stands for the specific country, but can be anywhere.
