All too often the sounds of the environment pass by unnoticed because of our uncanny ability to shut them out. A Soundwalk enables its participants to actively listen, opening ears and consciousness to the complex orchestration that the environment is composing at all times. It is a musical-sonic adventure that reveals the banal to be extraordinary!
Led by Jaimie Dolinko and Jorma Kujala
Vancouver’s Strathcona neighbourhood, also known as Vancouver’s “East End,” is one of Vancouver’s oldest and most multicultural and diverse neighbourhoods. The delicate, richly balanced spectrum of overlapping histories and communities will be explored through this 45-60 minute aural exploration of the area’s buildings and byways. Be prepared for a group embodied listening excursion on expanding awareness of spaces and places, inspiring us to listen more deeply to this multifaceted world we inhabit. This soundwalk will take place rain or shine, please be sure to wear appropriate footwear and clothing for any weather condition.
