Encounter the aural aura of the Aurora. Tune in to the messages bound in the sound of the Polar Lights. Experience the sonic symphony of space weather. Spend a few hours deep in the long night of the waning year, discerning Aeolian noise; tunneling underground to hunt for electrolocating rodents; and listening in on Emperor Penguins. Featuring works by Kate Donovan, Steven P. McGreevy, Philip Samartzis and Douglas Quin.

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
