Echolocation: Music of the Spheres
90.7-FM in NY's Upper Hudson Valley and wgxc.org/listen everywhere
http://www.wgxc.org/
Produced by Elizabeth LoGiudice.
On this early spring broadcast, we’ll explore the Pythagorean notion of the ‘music of the spheres’, catch the vibe of string theory from theoretical physics, listen to sound art from Adriene Lilly and hear selections from a talk given for the Forge Project by Native American musician and storyteller Shawn Stevens, a member of the Stockbridge-Munsee band of the Mohicans, the "people of the waters that are never still". Music from string theory by Sarah J. Ritch and from Music of the Spheres.
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
