Enjoy Audio Walks of Powell River's landmark sites.
The function of ProjectArt SOUNDZONES is to present an alternative experience to familiar routes and encounters by combining intimate sound recordings with unique sites. The result is a heightened sensory experience; listening, looking and rethinking the immediate environment and contemplating conventional knowledge systems. The geographical, historical and cultural context of a site or object are central themes to the recordings while physical spaces become areas of exchange and exploration. The virtual recorded soundscape mimics the real physical one in order to create a seamless world as a combination of the two. The binaural method of recordings (defined left and right directional sounds) play with sensations of space, hearing, intimacy and presence. The mediated walk triggers feelings of presence/absence and touches on themes around the commons, loss and shifting perceptions.
