Description
Imagine: you’re gonna lie back somewhere out there with your eyes closed. You listen, you feel the sun on your face. This is ‘The Sound Sails’, a podcast that makes precisely that possible, wherever you are. Each episode consists of one hour of continuous sound, recorded somewhere on Terschelling. Every day a new hour: The surf, a meadow full of birds or a forest edge. This way you can enjoy the island feeling, without inconveniences like rain, mosquitoes or thistles. We have already endured those for you.
With sounds, it’s almost as if they just are present, but in fact, they travel all the time – the sound sails.
The Sound Sails/Het Geluid Vaart is included in the collection of Museum for Sound and Vision (Museum voor Beeld en Geluid)
Ivar at the mudflats, location of The Sound Sails episode 6 – The Mudflats Walk.
