ECLIPSING
About
This walk is designed for headphones. It is activated by location and time of day. It takes about an hour and fifteen minutes and is 2 miles long. Please bring headphones and arrive ten minutes prior to the start time to connect. When you are at the Long Center at the start time, open the app to join the walk. The audio will begin spontaneously and you will be guided.
THROUGH MAY 31 2024, 6PM and 630pm daily
Starting at the Long Center, Austin TX
A new site-specific soundwalk created by Tribeca Immersive Award-winning duo Point A (artists Andrew Schneider and Annie Saunders), in collaboration with astrophysicists and the local community. Accessed in public space with headphones, the walk is full of 'was-that-part-of-it' moments, sound activated by location and time of day, narration researched and recorded in Austin, and live interactions hidden in plain sight. Just another day, regular people doing regular things and then suddenly, magically synchronous. Like an eclipse.
