Sound walk

Through Topolo

A walking (recorded) loop from the old school house (sleeping point 1) to Julava (sleeping point 2). Walking to the top of the village, to the forest & back down following the one road linking the village to its neighbours

Sunrise Sound Walk, Port Blake

Can you imagine listening near Lake Huron at dawn, or with the many species in a woodland trail? Our four Sunrise Sound Walks, led by Canadian environmental artist and composer Anne Bourne, will explore the Lake’s wave patterns, the complex resonance of its deep waters, tectonic currents, the shifting shoreline sands, and the many pulses

Four Bridges

Howard Hersh’s "Four Bridges" is a sound installation at Montalvo Arts Center, designed to be experienced via mobile devices while walking a 26-minute woodland trail through redwood canyons, hardwood forests, and meadows. The narrative combines children's choir, instrumental music, poetry, and archival recordings to explore the forest as a metaphor for shared humanity, featuring voices of political and religious injustice victims linked to Angel Island, Japanese-American internment, and the Holocaust.

Being with Trees: A Contemplative Walk

Take a walk among the trees with us. During this contemplative audio walk we will tune in to aspects of our relationship to trees through guided contemplations and actions that focus our senses and invite an experience of co-being and appreciation.

This post acknowledges the sovereign peoples of the lands where gatherings occur, honoring Elders past, present, and emerging, as well as all human and non-human inhabitants. It introduces Arboretum, a collective forest of real and imaginary trees created by members to symbolize solidarity and interconnectedness.

Acknowledgement
We wish to acknowledge the sovereign peoples of the lands in which we meet and in doing so, honour all Elders, past, present and emerging. We also acknowledge all creatures, human and non-human who inhabit the lands and waters where we live. Sovereignty never ceded -always was, Always will be…

About
Arboretum is a forest – a forest of trees – imaginary or real – breathing leaves – whispering breath – join the forest – add your tree – as we weave our trees throughout the world – here in the wisdom of murmuring leaves as we receive the solidarity of the forest.

lonning, lonnin

Cumbrian dialect term for ‘lane’ – but a quite specific lane. Lonnings are usually about half a mile long, low level and often with a farm at the end. Many have specific names known only to the local villagers. Hence, Bluebottle Lonning, Lovers Lonning, Fat Lonning, Thin Lonning, Squeezy Gut Lonning or Dynamite Lonning. In the north-east the spelling is lonnin and seems to refer more to an alley than a country lane. The Scottish equivalent is ‘loan’.
