Produced by Elizabeth LoGiudice.

Beat the heat with the summer broadcast of Echolocation. We’ll keep it cool by immersing ourselves in waves that are so pervasive, we may as well surf them. The undulations of ocean waves are a reminder of the invisible sound waves that move around and through us. During the first hour of the show, we’ll learn about scientists who gain understanding of our watery world through the use of hydrophones. In the second hour, we’ll explore intrepid artists that catch sound waves to create aural treasures.

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
