Participants will form a roving experimental sound and performance ensemble that will interpret and play the neighborhood’s building facades, sidewalk hardware, public art and street markings to make a contrapuntal, chance-based chorus. This walk holds 12 people and is part of Urban Design Week 2011, organized by The Institute for Urban Design.
