SPRING 2016 SOUNDWALKS

Listening in, Between the Lines

Sunday, April 17, 2016; 2PM

Led by Jorma Kujala and Igor Santizo

Meeting Location: This aural excursion will both begin and end at the Beatty Street entrance of the Stadium-Chinatown Skytrain Station.

In Fall 2015 Vancouver City Council approved the replacement of the Georgia and Dunsmuir Viaducts with a new at-grade street network, paving the way (all pun intended) for yet another redevelopment of this area on the periphery of our city’s hub. This soundwalk inaugurates a long-term investigation into the viaduct’s surrounding area, opening our ears to murmurs of past erasure in the area as well as echoes of futures yet to unfold. Join Jorma Kujala and Igor Santizo to walk, and listen, in between the lines of history while we explore other lines above and below the viaduct’s two arms.

Lost Lagoon, Vancouver’s Urban Refuge

Sunday, April 24, 2016; 2PM

Led by Jamie Dolinko

Meeting Location: The Viewing Plaza overlooking the Lost Lagoon (directly above the Nature House at Stanley Park). From Denman go north on Alberni 2 blocks.

The Lagoon Soundwalk is a meditation on the intersection of people, flora, and fauna, and will explore the collision and surprising co-existence of urban and natural worlds. Meet Jamie Dolinko at the Viewing Deck, directly above the Nature House, at the foot of Robson and Alberni. Soundwalkers will be led part way around Lost Lagoon and through a trail towards Second Beach Pool where the walk finishes at the Second Beach Field House for tea.

Presented in association with the Vancouver Soundwalk Collective.
