A Very Quiet Soundscape Network

As Bernie Krause and I often travelled together in the early days of our marriage and, as I began to accompany him alongside into the field on numerous recording adventures, we connected with people around the globe, in some of the world's most remote places.   Upon our return back home, we relied upon the occasional posted letter or rare e-mail from far-away places to keep in touch with some of the friends we made along the way.  As the early years of 2000 passed by, more friends and…

To view the video, click the link…

'Moments of Fortunate Listening': Jez Riley French

A Salute of Support!  The multi-talented Jez Riley French gets a quiet 'shout out' today for the many fine ways his work explores and expresses the world of soundscape, musical composition, and art.  His fine sensibilities, gifted talents,  and painstaking technical skills combine into a rather astonishing compilation that is well worth knowing about.   Some hydrophone stuff on YouTube (below) -- and do visit his well-crafted …

Are you a city bird or a country bird?

Neat notes from NPR about the regional dialect of birds in the 'hood.  Does it really come as a surprise that anthropogenic noise affects avian communication? The original article is at the bottom of the linked post. http://wamu.org/programs/metro_connection/11/12/09/changing_your_tune_to_adapt_to_the_urban_jungle

Martyn Stewart on the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge

This fragile and amazing place is one of the world's most untrammeled landscapes.  Of course, that also means it's a quietly bountiful place to capture the timeless soundscape of the Arctic.  Let's hope that public support keeps the Arctic Refuge protected from development, so future generations can hear the natural chorus, intact and still performing century after century...http://www.birdnote.org/birdnote.cfm?id=1288
