La Jolla Playhouse’s WOW Festival
presents
a speculative soundwalk
Grab your headphones and comfy shoes for a site-specific, immersive soundwalk that takes you on an urban odyssey exploring the built environment and natural world around La Jolla Playhouse and UC San Diego. This poetic, meditative and innovative work offers new ways of seeing and listening as it navigates you through the physical, cultural and geographical landscapes we inhabit, in search of the extraordinary amidst the mundane.
To experience the soundwalk, you download a custom-built app and bring your own mobile device and headphones. The experience starts in front of the La Jolla Playhouse box office. From there, the app will guide you through known and lesser-known paths, shedding a new perspective on familiar places. Your location and movements will conjure the sound and text you are hearing.
