Echoes: On the river #mycooksriver scavenger hunt

room 7 ECHOES

Sydney, New South Wales, Australia

The #mycooksriver hunt begins the first phase of a generative open-ended project and the making of physical and virtual mementos and memories. Use the echoes as location guides for hunting your treasures. The Echoes tell sonic stories, sometimes through voices, sometimes through sounds asking you to open your ears and reflect on their messages. // This project is proudly brought to you by the Cooks River Changemakers. Many thanks to the Cooks River Alliance for facilitation and support.

I am a Sydney-based multimedia artist and researcher with a deep interest in sound, the environment and the echoes of pst present and future that saturate place. My broader art practice involves community and public art projects with a focus on environmental and social themes often incorporating experimental, polyphonic audio. I am currently working on a deep mapping project on an urban river system in Sydney, Australia.
