Hearing (Natural) History

from Sounds Curious Podcast Hosted by Banshee Media

Recorded on April 6th, but late to the feed! This week we take a sound walk through the archives over at The British Library, celebrating the vanishing sounds of the natural world. We were led there through a blog interview with the curator of Wildlife & Environmental Sounds at the British Library: http://listeningacrossdisciplines.net/resources/interviews/listening-means-discovery/ The blog got us to pondering the idea of vanishing sounds in the natural world, so you can't really blame us for losing ourselves in the Soundcloud stream for The British Library, and cutting together a virtual sound walk out in the natural world for our listeners: from deer bellowing across a commons in the UK to the sounds of sea birds in a cave in Wales, the rainforest at dawn to stormy weather on deck at sea... Enjoy! Check out more for yourself at: https://soundcloud.com/the-british-library. Find out more in the show notes at www.bansheemedia.com This episode includes: "Corvid roost," "Nightingale Song," On deck in rough weather," "Rainfall on leaves and puddles," "Seabirds in Cave," "Strong breeze," "Strong waves on pebbles," Timber boat beneath decks," Tropical Rainforest at Dawn," Waves after storm," "Wind in door," and "Woodland stream."
