Indoor Sound Installations

Two interactive sound installations will be running every Sunday afternoon from July 22 to Sept 2 at St. Andrew-by-the-Lake on Centre Island. Lori Beckstead and David Rose’s The Whispering Tree is an interactive sound sculpture that absorbs the sound around it and then retransmits those sounds. Secrets told to the tree become part of a continuous soundscape emitted by the tree. Also included on an interactive computer are the Toronto Island Sound Map (Don Sinclair and Darren Copeland), Around Radio Roadmovies (Chantal Dumas, Christian Calon and Don Sinclair) as well as a Listening Gallery allowing gallery goers to listen to past Sound Travels performances while viewing the "Sound Travels Documents" Photo Exhibit by Stefan Rose.
