Talk & performance: Acoustic approaches to ecology

Digital technologies are critical tools for ‘field recording and acoustics ecology’ - an area of research which explores the relationship between humans and the environment through sound, and which can inform us of changes in the climate or biodiversity habitats. Digital acoustics tools are being used to capture, edit, amplify sounds from nature and create immersive multi-sensory experiences.
In this talk, we will also explore how tech can be used to sonify signals from the Earth which are not audible by the human ear. Lawrence English, sound artist, will demonstrate his ‘electromagnetic scanner’, and tell us about inaudible waves and vibrations from the microscopic to the galactic scale. He will take us through ‘sound exercises’ during which we will explore a deeper sense of listening. Chaired by David Toop.

Time: 12:30 BST
