It’s time to get out. Together. For one hour, The World According to Sound is going to transport you to a world before the pandemic in an international communal listening event.
It’s an hour of surround and spatialized sound, all delivered to your headphones while you shelter in place.
You’ll have dinner in a busy restaurant and go to a hockey game; visit a zoo, sand dunes in Oman, and a jungle in Costa Rica; sit in on a university lecture, sing in a large gospel choir, and listen to birds chirp, giraffes moan, and bees buzz.
Sign up for the show and you’ll be mailed an eye mask and miniature poster with instructions on how to join the show. After the show, creators Chris Hoff and Sam Harnett will join attendees for a live discussion.

PLEASE REGISTER ONLY WITH YOUR STANFORD EMAIL ADDRESS.
If you use a non-Stanford email address, you will not be considered registered and you will not receive the online attendance link. Please note that you will need to join the event with your Stanford Zoom acount.
Tickets must be ordered by 11:59pm PDT on May 28 to receive a personal eye mask and a miniature poster. If you order after that you will still receive the link to the online show, but you will have to fashion your own eye mask or be very diligent about keeping your eyes closed.
Please note that only a limited number of tickets that include a personal eye mask and miniature poster are available.
If you are blind or visually impaired, let us know and we will send along a braille instruction card. And for those of you who have terrible internet, like Sam's parents, once the show starts, there will be an option to play an audio file designed for limited bandwidth.
