Kaitlin Prest's The Heart will open up the private world of two lovers documented for 24 hours in that very same hotel room, and Object of Sound from Sonos will present a listening lounge curated by host and acclaimed music critic Hanif Abdurraqib. The room will feature crates of vinyl and visitors can contribute to a participatory playlist, all while listening to the music that shapes our culture today playing on Sonos' unparalleled speaker systems.

"Podcasting is a medium that should be unbound. The artists and storytellers defining the space are challenging conventions and reshaping our cultural landscape," says Creative Director and Founder, Scott Newman.
