BW vs Will Copps' Liminal @ Catholic

Beethoven Walks incorporate reproductions of Beethoven’s sketches, or leaves from his autograph manuscripts, connecting those walking the path with Beethoven’s music, his creative process, and the inspiration he drew from nature. Sponsored by Yellow Barn, the first two Beethoven Walks trails are located in Putney, Vermont, including this one at the Greenwood School. This App provides the playlist, directions, and other information necessary to enjoy the trail. Created by Seth Knopp, Beethoven Walks is a project begun during our collective isolation, serving a universal need to better understand our humanity through music and the beauty of our world. These walks open in honor of Beethoven’s 250th birthday, and are dedicated to the world his music shows us is possible.

Transitions—from stillness to movement, and from digital to physical realms—make up a large and underappreciated part of our daily lives. Will Copps explores and expands on these moments in his new spatial composition, Liminal, leveraging GPS to weave music into the rich historical environment and topography of Catholic University. Walk the campus and hear sounds change in line with your movement, framing the campus in a whole new way. The app pairs with an immersive, spatial audio/video exhibition in the Salve Regina Gallery, extending the reach of the gallery and its art across the entire campus. Students, faculty, and visitors can download the app and experience a gallery without walls that reframes our daily interaction with the spaces and their expression of beauty, interest, and contemplation. The app is released via TCW. More information can be found via Catholic University at: https://art.catholic.edu/news/exhibitions/index.html; technical help can be found on willcopps.com and TCWav.com.
