On this broadcast we're going to hunker down and listen in to excerpts from past shows that explore animal communication that happens beyond the realm of human perception. We'll eavesdrop on treehoppers, spiders, narwhals, and owls. As we enter into the dark time of year, we'll be serenaded by musical compositions from Julia Kent, Lisa Schonberg, They Might Be Giants, Lisa Walker, the Dolphins, Blue Dream, and the Spiders.

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
