Designed as an auditory map of the city of Boulder, this artistic rendition of a natural forest built within the walls of the exhibition directly correlates to the noises happening within the city. Walking through the exhibition - much like a hike in nature - the visitor experiences the sensations and sounds of transient wildlife, streams and rustling leaves, which directly connect to the decibel levels and actions occurring throughout the city.
