Incredible experience!
I have tried this in several of the parks and it’s always unique and always wonderful!
Really very pleasing
Such a pleasing and thoughtful experience, much appreciated! I only wish there was a bit more signage so more people could enjoy :)
Stunning
Stunning. Would love this in more places — such a moving way to see the world anew.
Absolutely stunning!
I have previously enjoyed Reid’s SOUNDWALK in Los Angeles but I am so happy it is now in London to enjoy as well. Thank you for bringing this incredible experience to Regent’s Park!!
Loved this!
Chilled walkabout in the sunshine today. Thank you for this!
It took a few minutes to download - smooth sailing after that x

What a beautiful experience :)
I lost myself wondering around Regent’s Park to this sound work. Beautifully-made and very enjoyable. Look forward to coming back and exploring this when the park transforms in autumn and winter.
Rubbish
The walk wouldn’t download both on wifi and regular data - what a waste of time and how disappointing
Regent Park: Ellen Reid Sound Walk is Revelatory!!
I was on a quick visit to London and I needed sometime to clear my head so I went to Regent Park and decided to turn on this app Sound Walk. It was recommended by a friend and I am so glad I chose it. It was such an amazing experience to hear the sounds of this brilliant artist narrate my first major visit to the park in over ten years. It made the nature and beauty of the park come a live in a way that I had yet to experience (without hallucinogens). At some point, I felt like the tress and flowers were dancing in a rhythm synced with the conductors music. The music created this immersive artistic experience that I truly got lost in. I live in New York, so I definitely plan on using this through my jaunts in Central Park. What an ingenious idea - synching one form of art (music) with another (nature)? Thank you Ellen Reid’s Sound Walk!

Mind blown in Regent’s Park
Wow I just did a soundwalk in regents park and was totally blown away. This is an AMAZING project. The whole experience was so beautiful and seamless. I feel fully restored. I highly recommend!!!
Embarrassingly bad
Downloading the app is just the beginning. You then have to download the audio for the walk you choose. This seems to take forever and, in my case, hung at around the 50% stage. I tried this 4 times on an 80 megabit connection. If it won’t work on Wi-Fi, good luck with getting it to work on 4G, or even 5G.
Another piece of cruddy app design, funded by the deep, deep pockets of The Wellcome Trust.
Whoever approved this for release should be ashamed of themselves

Update — It’s back!!
Apparently this is NOT the same app that was released a decade ago by different artists. Confusing. I was in love with this when it was originally released in 2011 (I believe under the name ‘Listen to the Light’). The music feels a bit different but it’s still the same park :) It was once again amazing to feel how music and landscape can interact to do magical things.

Pleasure House Park
Pleasure House Park was amazing! So peaceful and the music was the perfect addition! I will be back soon
Spa State Park, Saratoga Springs
This experience took me around my park (that I know & love so well) in a new way, coaxing me in directions and paths I don’t typically gravitate to. It was a beautiful way to explore the park and see/learn something new about it. Thank you for inciting exploration!
Software crush
This app crushes every single time when I try to download the music. After I re-open it, the downloading progress stuck at 0% and never change! I am pretty disappointed!
Terrible
Doesn’t work until by golf course.
Terrible sound

Does not work
I don’t know what it takes for this to work
Beautifully Immersive experience
A very refreshing way for art to integrate with the a state part, being surrounded by equal parts of both. The map is not as exact with where the pathways are but if you follow the pointer on you locator you can’t go wrong.
A new lens
Incredible experience! It changes the lens through which you see and how you interact with the world. We will definitely do this again.
Thanks
Amazing & unique experience
Incredible
Just incredible. Do as much of the walk as you can and then do it again. Bravo!
