Looking for a new way to experience Griffith Park? Don’t miss
this GPS-enabled app that “uses music to illuminate the natural environment.”
“Ellen Reid Soundwalk,” created by composer and sound artist Ellen Reid, plays music that has been geocoded to locations across the park. Some tracks play for 20 seconds, while others play for 20 minutes. Visitors to the park are guaranteed a different experience each time they wander the trails.
Times arts and culture writer Deborah Vankin recently spoke with Reid to
learn more about the app and what Griffith Park means to her as an artist. “The discoveries and inspirations that have come from being in that amazing landscape are infinite,” Reid said.
