A soundwalk is…
…for everyone’s enjoyment and learning
…opening our ears to every sound in the environment
…a rare opportunity for listening in a social group
A soundscape is…
…the experience of sound in your landscape
…always active and changing
…at times subtly affective and informative, but often unnoticed
…a natural resource, or a design made in sound
Our soundwalking series explores our relationship in sound and place. Learn from our video: https://vimeo.com/186492415
