With water as the driving element around which this train of thought is developed, an experiential enhancement of an existing trail in the Finger Lakes region takes shape. Three interventions distributed alongside the trail of Taughannock State Park create an alternative experience where the sound of water takes center stage on its own, or paired with a musical performance that is forced to respond or counter, and overall have a relationship with the surrounding sounds and acoustics.
