Explorathon 2021 – Soundwalk

Saturday September 25, 2021
West End, Glasgow

Tickets available here: Sound Thought: Soundwalk, Explorathon 2021

Join the Sound Thought team on an in-person, curated soundwalk of locations around the West End of Glasgow. We will explore notions of acoustic ecology and the impact of humans and noise pollution on our local environments as part of Explorathon 2021.

Four composers and sound artists have prepared soundscape compositions for a specific location in Glasgow’s West End. The team will guide you on a route through the West End, listening to each work in situ together, and engaging in listening, reflection, and discussion.

Please bring your mobile phone and a pair of good headphones to listen to the pieces. You can choose to stream them from our website, or download them in advance.

Each tour will last between 60 and 90 minutes.

Presented as part of The Dear Green Bothy, marking Glasgow’s hosting of the 26th United Nations Climate Change Conference, COP26, in November 2021.
