The Buried Brook is a free, interactive augmented reality sound walk by Kamala Sankaram, commissioned by City as Living Laboratory (CALL). It traces the sonic geography of the buried Tibbetts Brook, which once flowed from Yonkers through the Bronx to the Harlem River. Please join composer Kamala Sankaram for a 1.5 mile-long walk along the route of the underground brook, for a discussion about the app and the future daylighting of Tibbetts, as well as its storied past and present.
