The second annual World Listening Day is on Monday, July 18. I join hundreds and perhaps thousands more people to celebrate and observe this day all through the week.
World Listening Day is being recognized in a substantial, truly global way. Participation last year was phenomenal. Please visit the WLP website to learn more, participate, and subscribe to our Yahoo! Groups and Facebook Group.
I have organized a monthly series of meetings for the Midwest Society for Acoustic Ecology, featuring three public presentations by Jay Needham, Viv Corringham, and Steve Jones. Please bookmark and return to the 2011 Winter/Spring Schedule page as I will update it when more details become available: http://mwsae.org/?p=1198
Recently, I started using AudioBoo and found it to be a fun social media “play thing” for posting field recordings. One interesting feature with potential for serious use is AudBoo’s ability to create a podcast in the iTunes Music Store. There you can download to the files or “boos” as well as subscribe to the podcast. You can tag your boos, search boos. This is the link for my AudioBoo. As in Twitter you can follow the profiles. You can also subscribe to everyone’s AudioBoos on the iTunes AudioBoos full podcast.
