SIGN WAVES OUTDOOR SOUND INSTALLATION:
SONIC BOARDWALK by Kristi Allik & Robert Mulder
open 24/7 until October 1st
Sonic Boardwalk is a sound installation that generates a microsound landscape activated by the kinetic imprint of passing visitors. The work has been installed on a section of the boardwalk on Toronto Island between Wards Island and Centre Island on the south side. The installation's microsounds can be perceived as a mapping and modeling of certain aural characteristics of various bell sounds, enabling the boardwalk pedestrian to 'create' their own hybrid acoustic ecology consisting of an 'orchestra' of natural and sounds.
Produced by New Adventures in Sound Art as part of the Sound Travels Festival of Sound Art
