Sound Walks @ UMMA, March 2022

A collection of sound walks and audio tours, created by students from the Stamps School of Art & Design “Social Spaces” course taught by Emilia White. Step into another world at UMMA by listening to these students’ interpretations of the artwork, architecture, sounds, and spaces. Each tour invites the listener to explore the museum in a new and unexpected way.
