The Winter 2021 broadcast features a sonic exploration of the owls of the Hudson Valley, their extraordinary hearing and their silent flight. We revisit vibrational communicators with music made in cahoots with treehoppers by violaist Martha Mooke, and take in the ambiance of an Arctic island with from the Norwegian double bassist Sigurd Hole. Music from two different bands called owls, plus Projekt 22 & Owl and Wake Owl. Thanks to freesound.org and their contributors Raoul Slayer, Felix Blume, Tim Kahn, Daniel McAdams and thenaturalworld for the awesome owl recordings.

Echolocation explores aspects of environmental art, especially the use of bioacoustics in sound art and musical composition. The show dwells at the junction between art, science and natural sound, and features works by artists working in the fields of soundscape studies, deep listening and acoustic ecology. Featured composers include R. Murray Schaffer, Doug Quin, Lisa Walker, Hildegard Westerkamp, Pauline Oliveros, and others. Each quarterly program includes news and updates from fields related to scientific and artistic studies of environmental sound. Submissions of locally recorded and produced pieces are encouraged. https://www.facebook.com/EcholocationWGXC
