Come with KQED as we explore the world around us, ears first. What does our environment sound like, and what do these sounds teach us about ourselves and our world? We’re asking these questions in a series of six stories that will take us from the forest floor to outer space. On each floor of the library you’ll find a QR code to access an audio player on your smartphone. Once you’re there, it’s time for Sound On.
