Our ecoWALKS are about discovering the hidden layers of regional landscapes in a way you won’t have previously experienced. Some will be quiet walks, some will encourage you to respond to what you’re experiencing, some will be about considering what’s in front of you from a new perspective, but all of them will provide you with a deeper connection to the natural world.
Subscribe for updates on when they’re running. They’re usually associated with our projects, so there’s no set schedule.
SOUNDWALKS
Wambuul Soundwalk
Sunday 28 August 2022
1.5 hours
The 2022 Wambuul Soundwalk was a Sunday afternoon stroll through Biddybungie Reserve on the western bank of the Wambuul/ Macquarie, introducing participants to a sonic riverside world never heard before. This 1.5-hour walk required nothing but a mobile phone with a QR code reader, earbuds/headphones, and a willingness to listen…actively and deeply. Guided by Dubbo-based field recordist, sound artist, Kim V. Goldsmith, the Wambuul Soundwalk celebrated the riverine environment through listening, questioning, thinking, and wonder at sounds that exist below the surface. This free, community event was been funded by the Country Arts Support Program (CASP) with thanks to Create NSW and Orana Arts.
This sound walk is part of the Sonic Territories: Wambuul project.
