Snow Days (ambient reprise)

If you are reading this you must have scanned one of the QR codes located around Mount Pleasant Park, welcome!

On January 17 2024, Vancouver experienced one of the largest snowfalls it has seen in decades.

Knowing that this would be a rare occasion, I went out over two days and captured how the park looked and sounded.

As a fellow Mount Pleasant resident and a frequent visitor of the park, I wanted to seal this moment in time and share it with the neighbourhood so we can all relive that moment.

Below, you will find a piece of music I made using only audio recordings from the park during the snow days as well as a series of images I took on my film camera.

I am referring to this combination of audio and visual as a sonic mural. This sonic mural is best enjoyed in the park, listening and looking at the pictures simultaneously.

I want to encourage any artist who currently resides in Mount Pleasant or frequents this park to make their art or music about it. I would love to see and hear what everyone makes :) !
