Audio Walks
Canadian artist Janet Cardiff has created a number of “audio walks” in a few select places on the planet. The “walks” are intricate and intimate soundscapes of places and events through which Cardiff guides the listener by using pre-recorded messages and audio images. Alison Lirish Dean profiles Cardiff and her work.
