Sounds of the Forest

Collaborate in creating the first forest soundmap of the world! 

Following the postponement of Timber 2020, festival organisers Wild Rumpus and the National Forest Company are inviting people to contribute to a different kind of gathering – Sounds of the Forest, an exciting new mass participation audio project.

Thanks to support of Arts Council England, Timber can continue to connect people with trees by collecting the sounds of woodlands and forests from all around the globe to create a beautiful soundmap bringing together aural tones and textures from the world’s woodlands. They are inviting people to visit their local forest or woodland and record one minute of the sounds they hear. Full details at timberfestival.org.uk/soundsoftheforest
