SOUNDWALK COLLECT & DAVID DE ROTHSCHILD present JUNGLE-IZED, an immersive audio experience set in Times Square that transports you to the heart of the Amazon, encouraging a conversation with nature and heightening awareness of the environmental impact of climate change.
A creation of SOUNDWALK COLLECTIVE in collaboration with a A Voice for Nature, featuring Amazon rainforest sound environments recorded by Francisco Lopez.
Download the free JUNGLE-IZED App from www.jungle-ized.com,
the Apple App Store, or the Google Play Store.
Borrow a set of premium Audio-Technica headphones at the JUNGLE-IZED kiosk in Times Square on 7th Avenue between 43rd and 44th Street.
The kiosk is open April 1-30, from Noon to Midnight.
Start the App, touch the screen, plug in your headphones and begin a journey through an interactive sound installation that superimposes the Amazon ecosystem upon an eight square block area of Times Square.
You can walk between 43rd and 47th Street, 6th and 8th Avenue.
Each street represents a diferent time of day or night in the Amazon sound environment.
Move deeper into the night as you walk North, and deeper into the rainforest as you walk East or West until you find the sound of the Amazon river, signaling the boundary of your experience.
Have fun!
