Description
Memories are often linked to sound and the many paths we travel. In this workshop, international guest artist Sam Auinger will guide participants in an architectural listening exploration to practice thinking with your ears. Together you'll examine all the audible acoustic effects and different auditory qualities in and around the Hirshhorn building. By reflecting on the process you can create a listening site map of the Smithsonian Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden.
