Voices and acoustics of nature, the sum of the calls of its inhabitants with the waters and winds, through the filters of vegetation and distance. From listening to narration through analysis, interpretation, recording and sound editing.
The richness of nature's soundtrack is the measure of biodiversity. Through hearing, we can get to know a landscape better, know which animals are there, how many there are and what they are doing. By hearing, we can observe the passing of the day, the seasons, and travel through different natural spaces. The soundscape is the sum of the voices of animals singing, whistling, croaking, mooing and stridulating, but also the crash of thunder, the blowing of the wind, which blurs everything, the infinite sounds of water... All of this within the natural acoustics of the landscapes, authentic natural concert halls.
But through hearing, through long-term attentive listening, we can also appreciate the seriousness of the environmental crisis. The invasion of noise, the transformation of the territory, pollution and the abuse of pesticides are all factors that leave a sonorous imprint. All of this, aggravated by the global warming crisis, is what we will hear in this talk/audition that summarises the author's already long history with nature. By hearsay.
