"Emerald Futures" closing ceremony

Come celebrate with us!

Immerse yourself in an evolving sound-world that changes according to your geographic location, as you listen to world premieres of pieces by the Very Young Composers at the New York Philharmonic. With GPS hotspots plotted along the route, site-specific pieces will play as you move from one contrasting natural soundscape into a future imagined by the next generation of composers and thinkers on a future that we believe in.

Emerald Futures is an Augmented Reality Sound Walk that guides you through a year of transformation and growth, from Central Park (W. 72nd St + Central Park West) to Amanda Phingbodhipakkiya’s mural, “We Belong Here”, in response to the rise of anti-AAPI hate.

As you reach the end of the walk at Lincoln Center, unlock a *special element* with Chromic Duo that is especially rendered for this closing event!

Please download Gesso (available for iOS + Google Play) and have headphones ready beforehand. https://www.gesso.app/download
