Community Fellows: Road to the Royal Mile, Here Be Monsters, Pop Up Archive, The Appreciation Engine, Detroit Mobile Audio Tour
After announcing this year’s final 15 SoundCloud Community Fellows last week, we’ve introduced their first project tracks this week. We’re excited to be welcoming such brilliant folks whose projects showcase the breadth and uniqueness of sound.
The last five of the 15 Fellows to introduce today will dive into the largest arts and culture festival in the world, audio archiving, the sound of appreciation, facing our demons, and a mobile tour of Detroit, MI!
The Edinburgh Fringe Festival is the largest performing arts festival in the world. Who to cover it than Hayden Cohen, a performance artist who will share stories from performers, attendees along the Royal Mile.
