This open-air audio experience, theatricalises the Convent landscape, using the voices and imaginations of children. Wearing headphones and a customised backpack, kids jump in and out of invisible sound zones to trigger the voices of trees, footpaths and rubbish bins. They draw images of the characters they hear in a special notepad and give each picture to their accompanying parent as they wander. When they have listened to this strange new world, they hide a drawing of themselves in the place they choose to live.
