<p>Thanks very much Kat. Delighted to join the Support Team and 'meet' other members. I've been a big fan since I read "Into a Wild Sanctuary" at the turn of the century, around the time I began a part-time PhD. A paper based on my thesis was recently published in "Psychomusicology: Music, Mind, and Brain". The title is "Musical listening and kinesthesis: Is there an audio-vocal tuning system?"

<p>Thanks very much Kat. Delighted to join the Support Team and 'meet' other members. I've been a big fan since I read "Into a Wild Sanctuary" at the turn of the century, around the time I began a part-time PhD. A paper based on my thesis was recently published in "Psychomusicology: Music, Mind, and Brain". The title is "Musical listening and kinesthesis: Is there an audio-vocal tuning system?" In this paper I suggest that our ability to make sense of the sounds in our environment is underpinned by the presence of a dynamic, self-adjusting and tunable audio-vocal tuning system. Unless I am mistaken (and, of course, I could be) I think the approach I've taken may also be relevant to other animals and the work of Soundscape. Why? Research has shown that birds, for example, adjust the frequency of their calls to overcome city noise. A question that has been asked is whether such adjustment is associated with an energy cost. I think it is, and I'd like to explore/discuss this question with others interested in this and related topics.

<p>Hi,<br/><br/>I will be heading to northern Nevada over the holidays, and I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for quiet places to record waterfowl, preferably within 200 miles of Carson City. </p>

Has anyone had good results recording in the field with an iPad? Can you share details with the group?

Can we actively 'reach into cyberspace' and help connect people to the wild through technology? And how do we encourage the upcoming generation of 'digital natives' to have direct experience of the natural world, outside of the wired one? Is *virtual nature* a viable alternative for the urban-locked ecologist? These discussions can help form the direction for future efforts and how we address bioacoustics in the 21st Century. Kick off the conversation and add your thoughts.
