Fair Winds and Following Seas
Immersive Audio Walk
Free · Designed for iPad
A nautical phrase used to wish the listener well on their journey. Wishing for good weather conditions and safe travels, it is a verbal gesture of good luck to those leaving port and heading out into the great and empty expanses of the sea.’
Commissioned by Hull Maritime and Freedom Festival Arts Trust with support from Arts Council England, The Broken Orchestra presents ‘Fair Winds & Following Seas’.
Inspired by the visible and hidden layers of history along with the unique landscape, this immersive spatial audio headphone experience takes you on a thought provoking, meaningful and introspective outdoor journey. Explore your deep rooted connection with the path you walk as we bring the natural surroundings to life. Blurring the lines of reality, you will interact with the environment in a completely unique way. With your imagination at the centre of this experience, you will be inspired as you explore and connect with the seemingly normal space around you.
With original music scored by The Broken Orchestra and spoken word by Imison award winner Vicky Foster, ‘Fair Winds & Following Seas’ illuminates the everyday surroundings with the use of sound, as we elevate the atmosphere of the everyday public spaces. Set against the backdrop of Hull's maritime past, you will be captivated by immersive music, eclectic soundscapes, innovative sound FX, expressive spoken word and powerful poetry, transforming the visual landscapes into an all-round sensory experience.
All we ask is you find the time to go for a walk, as we inspire and connect you to a city built on deep cultural roots, traditional resilient identity, influential trade and a proud working class ethos.
