We’ll learn about strange and wondrous things that can be learned by gazing deeply into a fish’s ear. Then, we’ll dive into BioMusic, exploring compositions that incorporate wildlife sounds (we might even get to listen to some singing fish!). This broadcast will include regular segments Echolocator Profile, News from the Sounding Board, and a Winter sound walk. Photo credit: RLT.

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
