Join us for a sound hike on the Ucross Ranch on Tuesday October 7.

"Confluences" is an emplaced sound experience created by Ucross artist-alumni Teri Rueb and Laurids Sonne. It is available via a free downloadable app (iOS and Android) that visitors can run on their mobile phones while walking the land. Interactive areas of sound play as visitors wander revealing a sonic landscape of sounds recorded over three years that include voices of the Ucross community former artists-in-residence local residents of Clear Creek Valley and field recordings taken in different seasons.
