It’s only a few more weeks until Sound Walk September 2022. Have you taken a look at the current list of submissions? Are you looking forward to one of the scheduled events?

It’s not too late to submit your own work, and be eligible for the Sound Walk September Awards.

Meanwhile, as in previous years, here at walk · listen · create, we’re organising a larger overarching collaborative event to celebrate Sound Walk September.

This year, in collaboration with Dérive app, we are hosting 30 Days of Prompts.
During the month of September, every 12 hours, participants will receive a prompt which will nudge them to explore the public space around them. You can take part via the mobile app Dérive app, or by following @30DaysOfPrompts on Twitter.

Keen to join up? Read up on the details, and sign up.

September will see a total of 60 prompts, for which you will have ample time to explore the space around you, or your city in general. Participate in as many, or as few, tasks as you like. Document your experiences, either directly inside Dérive app, or by posting to your favourite social media.
If the latter, try to tag your content with #SWS22 and #30DoP.

We will see you in the streets, we will see you online!

GPS, geo-poetic system

Geo-poetic system was a term coined by Lucy Frears during locative media art research (published 2017). The basis of geopoetics, a theory and practice developed by Scottish philosopher and poet Kenneth White, is to connect humans to the lines of the earth (White cited in McManus 2007: 183), or ‘what’s out there’ (Ingold 1993; 154; White 2005: 200; White 2006: 9). The contact White describes is often between the human mind and the earth, what he calls ‘landscape-mindscape’ (Legendre 2011: 121). Because of the embodied nature of locative media experiences using a smartphone in landscape for these walking art experiences using gps technologies Frears expanded this notion to being ‘landscape-mindscape-bodyscape’ (2017).
