WHEEL OF THE YEAR WALKS

Torontonians and visitors will have the opportunity to enjoy a 30-minute walk guided by the imagination of Toronto artists. 

 

The Wheel of the Year is a cycle of seasonal festivals timed around the solstices, equinoxes and four midway points between the astronomist phenomena. Year Walks are an ancient form of divination whereby walkers go on long journeys looking for clues to the future in the environment around them.

 

Black and Brown artists will take listeners through an audio experience mapped on their smartphones. The Walks will vary in content from the personal to the observational, from the imaginative to the fantastical. Different Walks will make use of different aspects of the technology but you do not need technical knowledge to use the app. All you need is a smartphone and the will to be transported and grounded through a sonic experience created by b current artists. 

Come and explore the possibilities of this technology! Depending on where you live, you might have the chance to explore your own neighbourhood or you can explore other neighbourhoods guided by some of the most exciting artists in Toronto.

b current has partnered with Driftscape to bring these incredible tours to life. Click one of the icons below to start your journey!
