Sound-Walks

We are organizing a series of sound-walks in Illinois—unique outdoor sessions where participants gather to hike together while wearing headphones and carrying portable recording devices. These walks offer a chance to experience the natural environment in a new way, with the sounds of rustling leaves, birdcalls, wind, and water amplified in real time. As we walk, everyone is invited to record what they hear, creating personal soundscapes and deepening their connection to the land through focused listening. Whether you're an audio enthusiast, nature lover, or simply curious, these sound walks are a meditative and creative way to explore Illinois’s natural beauty.
