I visited Vancouver recently to speak about another open project I run called the Photobook Club. While I was there I managed to meet up with Julie Andreyev who runs one of the most interesting courses I have come across at the well respected and beautifully situated Emily Carr University of Art and Design. Julie’s students have created some cracking soundscapes at various locations on Granville Island, Vancouver in response to the ‘Life in the Day’ task which can be listened to via the links on the #phonar world map.
Head below the map for more info from Julie on this task response and on the Interactive and Social Media Arts course at ECUAD

For our sound project on this #phonar world map, students explored ideas about real space location, histories of site, locative sound practices, mapping and social media tools. They researched a location on Granville Island and responded to this location by creating a locative soundscape. The soundscape is intended to be listened to on location at Granville Island.
