Magnetic vibration ~ listen to the calls of amorous frogs that fill the night soundscape with song. Magnetic migration ~ investigate intrepid animal migrants that use the Earth’s magnetic field to find their way home. Magnetic levitation ~ hear the astounding story of frogs made to levitate using a giant magnetic field. The show will feature an Echolocator Profile, a report on People’s Climate March events in the Hudson Valley, and the simply stunning sounds of spring.

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
