A short film excerpt of the flight will be presented as a 'sound walk' through Cambridge city centre. You will be able to follow the route taken by the balloon from Parkers Piece to Midsummers Common. This will feature as part of The Junction's art and technology festival ENTER_

SONY have kindly lent me two PSPs for the duration of the festival, they will be available for the public to pick up from the ENTER_ base camp on Parkers Piece. Using these handsets the listener will be directed along the balloon's original path, experiencing a birds' eye/ear view from the sky. These walks are also available from my podcast
