The Path of the Outlaw

In this alternate reality, you discover that you have been trapped inside a simulation of the Lincoln Haymarket by a company attempting to gather your personal information. In order to escape the simulation and re-enter the real world without the company finding you, you must solve a series of riddles to get between different locations that eventually lead to the extraction point. Start at the front of Pinnacle Bank Arena (the large pentagon on the map) to receive your first message. Everyone around you is part of the simulation and has the goal of capturing you, so keep your head down and move with haste.

Reality can seem so mundane. You see the casual movement of life, it's constant ebb and flow, and start to believe that's all there is. In this walk you discover that the city of Lincoln is a hotspot of interdimensional activity. Throughout the city are different locations where other dimensions overlap with our own. Legend has it, that if you listen close enough, you'll be able to hear into different worlds.

Help a 138 year old soul named Heinz get to his final destination! His story started off in St. Louis, but he's been in Lincoln for over 100 years. He'll tell you the story of how he got here and why he needs to get far away. In order to help him, you must come prepared with a bottle of water and an empty cup/mug. You will be shown how to use water as a means to transport spirits. Your job is to keep Heinz (who will be one with the water) in the cup until you get him to his destination. Heinz had heard spirits, just like you. However, he listened to the wrong ones, and was led into a dark place. He was saved by a woman named Anna, and he fell in love. Their goal was to get out to the West, but their idea did not go according to plan. If you accept the challenge of being Heinz's transporter, begin this journey outside the Temple Theater building. From there, Heinz will tell you where to go. You do not need to enter another world full aliens and monsters, you simply need to accept the fact that there are souls living in your environment. Tips: 1. Where comfortable shoes. This walk will be about 0.6 miles. 2. Headphones are recommended. They do not need to be noise canceling headphones. In fact, headphones that let in environment sounds will be safer and will reinforce the story. 3. Bring water and a cup/mug. Heinz will show you what these will be used for.

A day in the life of a freshman around campus and in the city during the COVID-19 pandemic and how it is different to freshman from last year.

Lincoln is in a state of peril. The Schwazler mafia crime syndicate has been extending their control across the city for the past few years. No one is safe, and the streets are a hotbed for protest and criminal activity. As one of the Lincoln Journal Star's premiere journalists, you have been assigned to investigate the mafia family to uncover secret hideouts with a former partner, Spencer Adler. You will have to work together in order to have any shot at bringing the Schwazlers down. Be safe, and good luck. INSTRUCTIONS/TIPS: 1. For the best results, start the experience as the sun is beginning to set and it begins to become dark outside. If playing in late October/early November, 6:30p.m. is a wonderful time to start your experience. 2. This experience is best played on a mobile phone. Use the device to guide you between the echoes when needed, and use it to capture pictures when told to do so. 3. Echo locations are numbered in the order you should visit them. 4. Each echo will only play once, so as soon as each one is finished you can move to the next location. 5. This experience features sound effects that replicate guns, drinking alcohol, and screaming. If any of these would be potentially triggering noises, this is not the experience for you. 6. This experience will take you through various downtown areas of Lincoln. While you should focus on the audio coming from echoes when you reach each location, always be aware of other people and vehicles, as the downtown area can become busy. 7. This experience is designed for one person. However, feel free to enjoy it together with multiple people at once; you will all just need separate mobile phones and headphones. 8. It is vital to bring comfortable walking shoes. 9. Headphones are required... you wouldn't want the Schwazlers to overhear you and Adler, would you? 10. Stay safe, and have fun!

If you listen close enough, you can hear the buildings speak. Let me help you hear them. If The Buildings Could Speak is a brief history walk through the Haymarket District of Lincoln, Nebraska, highlighting four locations. Request: Please stay within the marked circular areas on your map until the audio for that section ends, because it will not play again if you accidentally leave. *Earbuds or headphones recommended* *1150 ft walking distance (rough estimate)* *Around 10 minute run time* *Best during the day because the buildings are accessible* Credits: Talley Wills for scriptwriting and voicing the guide. Grace Debetaz for voicing the buildings and the train. Background Music was Maple Leaf Rag by Royalty Free Music Tree on Youtube

Night is a woman of many things but her main job is to recreate the world we live in to make it lively and new, making a world where the voiceless can speak. The dark night sky serves as a blacked out theater room and the lights used to illuminate the streets serve as spotlights for the objects that are never heard. The walk is a set of rants, cries, expressions of journeys, and thoughts that the things around us have and in the night they can finally speak their mind. Listen to what a lonely abandoned building feels, the remains of a forgotten history, or what night herself has to say about her life's work. You will be the audience member meant to follow and hear them because one ever does. Walk into a new world and be present for those who can never have that option. ***This walk is best experienced at the start of the sunset into the night. Start at the middle of the bridge, peer at the beautiful sunset before you and wait for Night to start your journey. For these set of echoes, to be part of the city and get a stronger connection to the story, please don't use noise canceling earbud /headphones In addition, the zones are larger so you, the listener, can wander and take in the city. By all means go into the building, prop the scooter up, and touch the brick.

Join open-source AI robot Clexa, on a guided meditation through Downtown Lincoln, Nebraska. This is an immersive audio experience, meaning that the listener should be wearing headphones and is prepared to walk a fair distance and commit at minimum, 20 minutes to the experience. Clexa was designed specifically to be a provider of information, especially regarding the planet we inhabit, but also a trustworthy sidekick for these big encounters throughout. The story is told primarily through narration, but also additionally through music and sound. Those who do not interpret music to be an emotional experience should refrain from tuning in, as it is essential in the understanding and takeaways. If you do not believe in climate change, this walk also isn't for you. Where to begin: This walk beings on the corner of O st. and South 10th st. From there, Clexa will be your guide throughout the entire experience, up until the last destination, located by the Amtrak in the Haymarket. Prepare a route to get yourself back to safe quarters ahead of time. This is meant to be experienced in daylight hours, but optimal experience is to be achieved at sunset, on a Saturday or Sunday, when the parking garages are emptier. Please enjoy the experience, and be sure to keep an open mindset as you travel across a new domain. Clexa is looking forward to meeting you.

You randomly discover the cassette tape that was recorded by a teenage girl name Lily Woods who was about to leave Lincoln the next day. She decided to record herself giving you a tour of her five favorite places downtown; however, as she brought you to each location, the tapes started to reveal the darker truth of hers in 2012. This walk could be played at any time of the day but is highly recommended to do it right before sunset.
