memoryscape reading

I really enjoyed how this article brought up ideas of connection and accesibility. Often times in the "art world," I feel as if people are put off by the idea of art because of how convoluted it can become. In the reading, I particularly like the part "connecting place in oral history" and how much of an emphasis is placed upon community and shared experiences. Because sound is something so accesible, no matter age or place, I believe it in the art context can be a connecting factor, as opposed to one in which no one can understand. I found it interesting towards the end of the article, when the author is discussing his own memory scape experiment, and stated that even people who did not have a direct connection with the experience, were still able to be connected. This I think really demonstrates the accessibility of it.
