Footsteps

The sound of feet traversing the earth's surface is a reminder of the impact that location has on our lives. You will never have heard anything quite like this amazing journey.

This evocative collection explores the theme that where we are and our sense of place govern our perception. From Western Australia to Florida, from suburban Melbourne to a collage of the sounds of feet traversing the globe — the pieces are grafted as the footsteps of different people interweave, cross or separate; much as they do in our daily lives.
