World Listening Day
People are encouraged to listen to nature's sounds every year on July 18th. It's also a day to learn more about field recording.
Listening is an essential part of knowing one another. When trying to figure out the world around us, listening is also vital. Acoustic ecology is a study that explores human and their environment by sound.
Every day, you should probably hear sounds in your natural environment. The rustling of leaves in the wind could be included in these sounds.' A brook's babbling is a brook nearby. The sun rises, birds are singing as the sun rises. Some sounds may be irritating, while others are more soothing. Acoustic ecologists take listening to a whole new level. They have to really listen to the sounds and interpret their meanings. Sounds can change over time, and it may indicate that the climate has changed. If an animal sounds start to disappear, it could be that they are losing their habitat.
Those who record these kinds of sounds participate in a technique called field reporting. Some people who do this sit on the ground listening for hours at a time. They also travel to various parts of the world to record sounds. These environments may include forests, deserts, plains, oceans, and mountains. Field recording is also done in urban areas. Many in cities may be interested in hearing how noise pollution is impacting the climate. Field reporters know that sounds in any environment are trying to convey something. All they need to do is stop and listen.
