Soundwalk: “Aquí habita un río” (A river lives here)
This post explores the relationship between Panama City and its urban waterways through a multisensorial soundwalk along the six-kilometer Matasnillo River, the most polluted in the area. It offers an open letter reflecting on what the river reveals about the environment and human connection from its source to the ocean.
Reflets d’écoutes
«Reflets d'Écoutes» is a site-specific sound walk commissioned by Des Ricochets sur les Pavés as part of the Bièvre*ImaginaireS cultural season in Val de Bièvre. Created in collaboration with the City of Massy and SIAVB, the walk explores the recently reopened section of the Bièvre River through natural sounds, neighborhood noises, and testimonies, contrasting the river’s environment with the surrounding urban landscape.
River Echoes : Deep Listening Walk #6
Tune in to a series of Live Streams from artist Kathy Hinde as she follows the River Frome from its source into the city of Bristol on World Rivers Day. Using hydrophones to access the usually inaudible soundworld of the river Frome, Kathy will pause for moment during her walk to live stream the sounds
River Echoes : Deep Listening Walk #5
Join artist Kathy Hinde on a walk that follows the route of the hidden river Frome as it flows through culverts beneath the city. Starting by listening live on hydrophones before the river plunges underground, Kathy will continue the walk by playing back a series of soundscapes recorded under the Frome as we walk along

This 2016 walk was composed by Andrew Brown in collaboration with Lise Olsen, Demi Hill and Emily Stollery, as part of the Spaces of Uncertainty Summer Academy that took place at the Württembergische Kunstverein in Stuttgart. It was inspired by the activism around the Stuttgart21 project, which turned the city into a vast construction site. Whilst the walk is located outside the city centre in Cannstatt, large-scale building works could be seen on the opposite riverbank, although these may now be completed.
The maps and soundfiles for the walk are available to stream or download below, split into five consecutive sections, to enable participants to more easily synchronise their pace with that of the recording.
