Pending edits, feedback and additions from the Patrick Henry students, here's a stereo mixdown of the 20 channel sound bed for the garden. Remember when it comes out of many widely spaced speakers at ground level it won;t sound so chaotic; more like cicadas, water, wind, geese flying over, and enthusiastic frogs. You get to walk closer to the ones that interest you, so I haven't spent time adjusting the levels here.
Now I have to try exporting the 10 x 2 channel files, stagger them by 5" so they might start all together in synch, and load up my cute Chinese mp3 players (whose batteries wear down after a few hours, so I have to make a backup for each one)

Here's the developing story of Philip Blackburn's sound projects developed for the Flint Hills Children's Festival at the Ordway Theatre in St. Paul, Minnesota. Last year was a Sonic Playground; this year it's the Singing Garden. Here too are extra residency projects that involve making, playing, composing and performing with homemade instruments.
