What to expect
You'll collect a wireless headset and begin moving at a deliberate pace through Lille's streets. The audio layer—music, voice, ambient sound—shifts as you move between locations, drawing your attention to specific details: stonework, street patterns, historical moments embedded in the urban landscape. This isn't a lecture delivered over monuments. Instead, sound and narrative work alongside what you're actually seeing, creating space for your own interpretation. Expect to stop frequently, to notice things you'd normally miss, and to experience the city as something alive rather than a backdrop.
