"Sight and Sound Walks" by Karen McCoy

Artist Karen McCoy is leading twelve participants at a time on 90-minute Sound and Sight Walks, departing at scheduled times from Lakeside Nature Center to specific destinations. Using ear trumpets to tune in to the auditory dimensions of the landscape as much as its visual components, McCoy has developed the guided walk as a means of increasing sensory perception through concentration, focus and isolating particular sounds and sights.
