An Audio Walk through the Neighborhood
You Are Here is a series of audio and video walks that invite the listener to rethink their relationship with the space. How do we perceive spaces, and how do spaces define us? What series of memories, histories, behaviors, habits, unfold in these spaces and how do we grow as they evolve?
These narratives are an invitation to tread into these spaces in a different way from what we ordinarily do, with the goal of rethinking the way we think about them, and questioning what we think we know about them.
How it works:
1. Scan the QR code posted on the signs
2. Follow the instructions in the audio
3. Access the videos and walk along the narrations
These beautifully Risograph printed maps are available for free at the Rockford Area Arts Council (713 E State St, Rockford, IL 61104) as well as other downtown locations (list will be available soon here).
Make sure you get yours and follow the instructions for your walk!
Please use caution when walking outside. Pay attention at the intersections and wait for cars.
