On Saturday, May 21 I led a soundwalk in Miller Woods at the Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore, with the Midwest Society for Acoustic Ecology and World Listening Project. It was a lovely experience with some very interesting people who participated. Above are photos taken one of the soundwalkers, Paul Hertz.

I’m happy to announce that the American Society for Acoustic Ecology’s Listening for the Future symposium will take place from Friday, July 9 through Sunday, July 11 in Chicago. Hosted by the ASAE’s Midwest chapter and the World Listening Project this conference is the first of its kind in the United States.
