Chris DeLaurenti and the Seattle Phonographers Union played one of my field recordings on the “Weekday” show today, Monday, December 20, on KUOW 94.9 Puget Sound Public Radio. The show is archived for your listening pleasure at: www.kuow.org/program.php?id=22147

My audio submission (the metallic contraction sounds of a gas furnace as it cools) and other collected sounds can be hear here on my Audioboo profile: audioboo.fm/boos/240858-cooling-furnace

In addition to being a co-founder of the Seattle Phonographers’ Union with Steve Barsotti, Chris DeLaurenti is a writer, composer and teacher. He recently founded the Pacific Northwest chapter of the American Society for Acoustic Ecology, and on the show Chris mentioned that he is now writing a book on field recording and phonography.

My report about Listening for the Future, the first American Society for Acoustic Ecology (ASAE) symposium and retreat, has been published on the September/October World Forum for Acoustic Ecology (WFAE) Online Newsletter.

In related news, within the next month I plan to have the proceedings (images, texts, and audio) from Listening for the Future published on the Midwest Society for Acoustic Ecology website. (more…)
