Waypoint to Crescent Lake

Waypoint to Crescent Lake is a sound-based installation housed within a salvaged shack from a commercial Matsutake mushroom foraging camp. Part of the my broader project The Mushroom Camps, the installation amplifies an experiential soundtrack of field recordings I had made in both the the foraging camps of Oregon and the Matsutake auction markets of Japan.  The sound of a passing freight train, old Cambodian pop music, and the call and response of the Matsutake auction are just a few of the sounds that spill out from the shack.

Waypoint to Crescent Lake installed as part of the NEPO 5K Art Walk, Seattle, WA, 2014.
