ECLIPSING

A new site-specific soundwalk created by Tribeca Immersive Award-winning duo Point A (artists Andrew Schneider and Annie Saunders), in collaboration with astrophysicists and the local community, using spatialized binaural field recordings made from the environment and serendipitous storytelling. Accessed in public space with headphones, the walk is full of ‘was-that-part-of-it’ moments; sound is activated by precise location and time of day, narration is researched, created and recorded on location in Austin, and live interactions are hidden in plain sight. Just another day, regular people doing regular things and then all suddenly, magically synchronous. Like an eclipse.
