SONIC EXPEDITION
The Sound of Ruins: Audio Adventures into Abandoned America
New York Times Best-Selling author Dylan Thuras and Ambie Award-winning multidisciplinary artist Blake Pfeil strap on their sonic expedition boots for this collaborative audio trip, a live storytelling performance from the upcoming 4th season of abandoned: The All-American Ruins Podcast. While wandering the ruins of an abandoned cement factory in Upstate New York, adventure buddies Dylan and Blake meditate on residing in the hollowed remains of a 19th century boom town. As they wind their way through a fantastical history, filled with the unexpected ghosts of Allen Ginsberg, Alan Turing, and post-World War II agents of espionage, both sonic storytellers imagine their own mythos inside the "American Dream" narrative, asking themselves the difficult question: "When did the walls of America become the abandoned ruins we are camping out in?"
