HTBAF: Sounding
How to Build a Fire is a community storytelling series. Come hang out for excellent stories, conversation, and drinks.
When: Friday, April 17, 7-9pm
Where: Open Source Gallery (306 17th St., Brooklyn, 11215)
In the final month of HTBAF Season 11 we explore the many meanings of “sounding,” from the literal act of hearing or making sound to the ways people test ideas, express feelings, or try to understand the world around them. Stories might center on music, voices, echoes, or the sounds that mark important moments, but they can also explore “sounding out” a situation—testing a plan, asking questions, or figuring something out step by step. Sound can signal warnings, create connection, reveal hidden things, check the depth of something, or simply capture the atmosphere of a place or moment. Whether it’s a noise that sparks curiosity, a voice that carries meaning, or an idea someone is trying to work through, these stories show how sound—and the act of sounding—can shape experiences, decisions, and discoveries.
