Sound walk
All-American Ruins guides listeners through immersive audio fantasies, recreating my experiences exploring abandoned spaces. I ask critical questions about society and culture while encouraging folks to activate their imaginations for healing.

On the banks of the Hudson River near Catskill, NY sits the abandoned Universal Atlas Cement Plant. Shut down between 1976-77, wander with me among the smokestacks and echoes of days gone by, as I reflect on the end of a relationship, telling the truth, and ultimately, the act of forgiving oneself.
