Back to Earth: Moss Matters

Moss Matters is a sound work devised by students of the Royal College of Art’s School of Architecture studio ADS3, on the occasion of Serpentine's Back to Earth project. Moss Matters, explores the urban ecology of London’s moss species, revealing what these resilient organisms can teach us about the life of the city. Listen from anywhere, or download the map and follow the audio walk along the Regent's Canal, London, at mossmatters.org.
