Arboretum Field Trip

Hello, all:
Instead of attending lab tomorrow, I have decided that we should attend a sound piece on campus. This piece is at the UCSC Arboretum between the base and upper campus. The piece, Forest (for a Thousand Years...), is an audio installation created by Janet Cardiff and George Bures Miller that was featured at dOCUMENTA 13 in Germany. As we are studying audio and soundscapes this week, it seems like a good reason to attend and also check out the other features offered by the arboretum.

The Forest opens at noon and stays open until 5PM. I will be in attendance from 11:30-2PM tomorrow. If you are not able to attend during this time because of a conflict, you can go another time this week. While there, be sure to check in with me (or take photos and email them) to get credit for attending. To be clear, we are not meeting at 9am or 11am in the Porter computer lab. If you have any questions or need additional help with this week's project, please let me know! Here are directions.

I look forward to seeing all of you there!
