ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT I Where's that sound coming from? ( C o n tin u e d fr o m p a g e B 8 ) The time spent walking from one designated area to another is often accompanied by footsteps on the CD track as well as other, peripheral, sounds. Often it's diffi cult to distinguish between the sounds coming from the CD and the real ones. Is that really a baby crying, someone running, a distant siren, Canada geese flying overhead? (No. But there's a large, black dog who desperately wants to chase a few real geese on the ground.) Do you really see overgrown flower beds and graffiti-covered walls or are you looking for something from Cardiff's memory? Certainly her comparison to the beach on Lake Huron is a memo ry.. .as is the comment about jump ing off her father's shoulders into the water. Do you have similar memories that can be recalled when you walk along the water front? Do they change, as your reflection does, with the passing of time? Do you feel like your life is being lived under water sometimes, rendering so many things forget table, as Cardiff suggests? "People still put messages in bottles and throw them into the lake...waiting for someone on the other side to find your words," Cardiff says, as you stand on the shore overlooking Lake Ontario providing you've followed the instructions properly, that is. And that's the key to this inter active exhibit - the ability to follow the definite instructions on the CD and to separate Cardiff's past from her present as well as to disassoci ate both of them from your own reality. However, this audio exhibit also helps you stop and smell the roses, literally and figuratively. It forces you to actually stop and look at things around you - flowers, birds, animals, trees, the lake, other peo ple - that are part of Gairloch Gar dens. So, if you find yourself wonder ing what you can do that's different on a bright, sunny day, or after a rain shower, why not experience A Large Slow River? It's well worth the 17-minutes or more, much more, walking through the gardens. And it's free. This interactive, audio "exhibi tion" will continue at Gairloch until Nov. 26th. The gallery is located at 1306 Lakeshore Rd. E. and is open Tues days to Sundays from 1 to 5 p.m. Photos by Barrie Erskine The two photos on the right are points of interest in the A Large Slow River exhibit which takes par ticipants through Gairloch Gar dens, pointing out specific details by means of a portable CD player. The clouds framed by trees, water and sky, above, and the bird, below, were points of interest to the Beaver photographer as he took the guided tour. m g* n g :v- _____ A ll 4 " H e r b s A W C e ll P a sk A n n u a ls S e Je ste d S ta n d a rd T r e & i S e le c te d Plastic Pats S e le c te d fionerete S t a t u a r y A ll U p rig h t Ju n ip e rs S e le c te d S h a d e T r e e s F la w e rin g S h r u b s S e le c te d fire a d le a f E ve rgre e ns T HIS WEEK S F E A T T JI (905) 2 5 7 -3 5 7 7 All.specials are while quantities last, unless otherwise stated A G R A M reserves the right to limit quantities. ©PEN 7 DAYS.
