A geotagged audio conversation and debate about the future of Silent Sam, a confederate monument at the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill. Thank you for downloading our geotagged audio tour, created by UNC's ARTS 106 class, taught by Sabine Gruffat, during the fall 2017 semester. If you haven't already, make your way to McCorkle Place, the quad between Franklin Street and Cameron Avenue. Search its pathways to encounter an array of voices speaking on the Silent Sam statue controversy. There are 16 recordings available that are represented by circles shown on the map. It is important to remember that the audio file will only play within the boundary of its circle. We hope you enjoy the audio tour "No Longer Silent."

IMPORTANT: READ BELOW Welcome to historic Tarboro, North Carolina. Today’s interactive walking tour will give you an inside look into the town’s historic landmarks, buildings, and homes. This app, called Echoes, will serve as an audio guide for your tour of historic Tarboro. Echoes uses smart location-aware technology that will allow you to explore the town of Tarboro at your own pace, taking breaks or dining at one of our delicious restaurants at your leisure. If you look at your screen, you will see a number of shapes scattered across the map. These are locations of interest. Walk freely and explore, and when you visit a historic spot marked on the map, the audio guide will sense that you have arrived and automatically begin explaining the site. The blue dot indicates your current location. This tour includes the highlights of downtown Tarboro. Wherever you start, we welcome you to our beautiful town and encourage you to explore the map and visit as many locations as possible. Ever since its founding, Tarboro has been at the heart of history in the South. The North Carolina State Legislature met here once in 1787 and again in 1987. At one time, our town was even under consideration to be the state capital of North Carolina. President George Washington slept in Tarboro during a visit on his 1791 Southern tour, and is noted to have said of our town that [quote] “it was the best salute you could have from a single cannon.”

On Earth Day 2021, the Botanical Garden Soundwalk was unveiled to the public and will remain through Summer 2021 and beyond. This soundwalk installation features a variety of soundscapes composed by student and faculty members of the Student Composers Association (SCA) of the University of Georgia. Playback of soundscapes on the ECHOES app is prompted by the geolocational positioning of the listener within the collections of the botanical gardens. Visitors may design their own interactive soundtrack by virtue of the duration and order of regions they encounter. A range of soundscapes is assembled here from multiple contributors, each with a unique sound approach to illustrate aspects of the natural environment. Charge your phone. Bring your headphones. Wear comfortable shoes. Be inspired. Note: After downloading the ECHOES app to your smart device, access the UGA Botanical Garden Soundwalk by going to https://tinyurl.com/ugasoundwalk or scan the QR-code available at the Visitor Center of the UGA Botanical Gardens.
