Urban sound walk: A chorus of Footsteps

A Chorus of Footsteps is an urban, immersive sound walk that explores how sound shapes the identity of our surroundings. Twenty walkers move through the city, collectively carrying a sound composition through speakers in backpacks. The audio features a variety of field recordings. The result is an auditory tapestry where sounds from different times and places merge with the spontaneous, everyday noises of the city. As the walk unfolds, new relationships emerge between sound, space, and presence. You can find our pitch document here and watch a teaser here.

oversupinate

People who jog, run, and sprint have their share of problems that slow-moving people can barely comprehend. One is oversupination. As the OED defines it, to oversupinate is “To run or walk so that the weight falls upon the outer sides of the feet to a greater extent than is necessary, desirable, etc.” A 1990 Runner’s World article gets to the crux of the problem: “It’s hard to ascertain exactly what percentage of the running population oversupinates, but it’s a fraction of the people who think they do.” Credits to Mark Peters.
