Artist Statement:
Guided Walking Tour, Audioscape available. Join in on a walk through 4.57 billion years of the earth’s history, laid out to scale as an exploration of ‘deep‘ (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_time) or geologic time (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geologic_time_scale) in The Rocks, a historic area of Sydney. Inhabiting the length of this trail are tiny collected ‘wonders’ and an evolving, location-sensitive audioscape of musical elements and participant voices. Roving discussions events will be held along the trail (rain or shine), to which you are invited to bring your own wonders on the topics of time, energy and ancestors. Participants can also experience the audioscape at any time, and can record and contribute their own thoughts using the free Deep Time iOS app (itunes.apple.com/us/app/a-walk-through-deep-time/id593281463?mt=8) or online (halseyburgund.com/deeptime/speak.html). Participants are advised to bring headphones for the audioscape, and iOS devices also for the walk events. Trail maps can be picked up from the event meeting place, or online at the project page.
