Hamline student Cory Quirk is opening a sound art installation titled Nature & Urbanity for two evenings to display some of the audio he’s recorded over the past year at Hidden Falls Regional Park. The park is of particular interest being that it is located on the St. Paul bank of the Mississippi and is constantly blanketed with the booming drones from the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport. The project seeks to distill the sonic experience of a city park apart from the visual one to document the mixture of sounds we consider to be natural with those we consider to be noisy and synthetic.
