  • Where is That Hum Coming From?
    2020/03/12
    While walking down 6th St., Kentuckiana Sounds curator Aaron Rosenblum found himself enveloped in a droning, omnipresent hum reverberating among the buildings on the block.

And yet he makes space for the small sounds of home, like this radiator that offers a surprising variety of sounds for those willing to listen.

  • Flash Dads? Flash Dads!
    2020/02/20
    Flash Dads is a JCPS program that brings men from the community into JCPS schools to serve as positive role models and welcome students. The volunteers come from throughout the community, and bring their own style to the early morning surprise greeting. On this morning, sanitation workers improvised a chorus of the air horns on their trucks to welcome students to Shelby Traditional Academy, and woke up the neighborhood in the process.
