Janet Cardiff has a new audio walk at Central Park. Her Long Black Hair is a 35-minute journey on a winding journey through Central Park's 19th-century pathways, retracing the footsteps of an enigmatic dark-haired woman. Each person receives an audio kit that contains a CD player with headphones as well as a packet of photographs. Cardiff uses binaural recording to create an experience of physical immediacy and complexity, playing with location, time, sound, and local history.

The audio kit will be available at a kiosk on 59th St. and Sixth Ave., thursday through monday, 9:30am to 5pm, June 17 - September 13, 2004. The last audio kit pick-up time is 5pm. Reservations are recommended and can be made by calling 212-446-9529 by 4pm the day before. Viewers will be asked to leave a drivers license or credit card in exchange for the audio equipment and should allow at least 50 minutes for audio tour.
