Stoney Creek Soundwalk
Part of the Re-storying Community project, the Stoney Creek Soundwalk is a set of six sound compositions that weave field recordings, oral histories, and original music to tell the stories of a fish-bearing creek in Burnaby, BC. Built around ecological resilience, intergenerational knowledge, and listening, the compositions were presented along the creek for a public listening walk.
