Sculpture Garden

Picture
SEEP (free downloadable smartphone app)
After a severe storm surge in the future, the elevated water table has turned the Hirshhorn Sculpture Garden into a marsh habitat. The sunken garden has been colonized with new cacophonous forms of life, making trouble for the garden’s caretaker who maintains the sculptures amid the destabilizing changes. Join the caretaker on this GPS-located fictional audio story that overlays the presently well-groomed Sculpture Garden with the dissonant sounds of future disruption.
​
Kate Gorman is the writer and producer of GREENWAY QUARTET, a four-part locative fiction audio series set in the gardens around the National Mall. She is also the author of the novel ON THE ICE and the creative guide INT-EXT.

Audio Periscope
Relay messages from the Hirshhorn's lower sculpture garden up to street level through an audio periscope. Your voices can go where your eyes can't see.

The DC Listening Lounge is an audio collective of sonic mischief makers and storytelling adventurers. We delight in sound and we hope you will too.
