Oublier Moby Dick (4/4) : La réponse de la baleine à bosse

J’écoutais à l’instant #beau

Ce documentaire est le fruit d’un projet art-science que je mène depuis 2012 avec le bioacousticien Olivier Adam et le CNRS. J’ai en effet découvert des analogies sonores stupéfiantes entre les baleines à bosse et le basson. De sorte que ni Olivier Adam, ni Sophie Bernado, bassoniste, ni moi-même ne savons dire quand on l’entend, s’il s’agit d’un chant de baleine ou de basson. À partir de là, j’ai développé une interface d’échanges sonores sous-marine humain-baleine. Puis, je suis partie avec l’interface, un haut-parleur aquatique et des micros sous-marins, à la Réunion, au sein de l’association d’observation des cétacés Abyss. J’ai enregistré chaque situation, chaque sortie, chaque chant, chaque souffle de baleine et surtout chaque réponse aux stimulations sonores.

Car, oui, il y a eu réponse. Et cette enquête sonore va le montrer.

« Les sons du pouvoir à #Thiruvananthapuram »
▻http://www.rfi.fr/emission/20180922-sons-pouvoir-thiruvananthapuram

Les rues de la capitale du #Kerala, sont presque toujours bruyantes.
Quand les travailleurs agricoles viennent manifester pour leurs droits : l’accès au financement et aux semences, ils portent la voix. Dans ces rues faites de bruits assourdissants, comment faire entendre ses revendications ? Le niveau de décibel doit être plus puissant, si puissant, qu’il couvre tout : les voix, les klaxons, le trafic. Mais dans ces mêmes rues quand des élus passent, le #silence qui s’impose est extraordinaire, stupéfiant, tout le monde l’entend. Au passage d’un convoi officiel, la circulation est coupée, les piétons arrêtés. Tout se tait, sauf les 35 moteurs des voitures d’Etat qui passent l’une après l’autre, c’est presque un chuchotement. Après, les rues de la capitale du Kerala redeviennent bruyantes.

La #glace_noire est un phénomène qui se produit quand le #gel saisit la surface d’un cours d’#eau sans la moindre bulle, donnant cette glace très pure et transparente. Elle fait à peine 5cm d’épaisseur, ce qui représente un risque mais le réalisateur suédois #Henrik_Trygg y est habitué.

Dans son film « the sound of silence », il décrit des courbes à sa surface pendant qu’elle ondule, et les vibrations produisent ces #sons irréels caractéristiques.

Native instrument, concert hier au soir.
“NATIVE INSTRUMENT is a Berlin based sound collaboration bringing together the field recording archive of Felicity Mangan and the precise, minimal vocabulary of Stine Janvin Motland. Their music is built from electronic and vocal adaptations of animal and insect recordings originating mainly from the Australian and North European fauna. With references to electronic dance music and low-fi pop, their mix of bug beats and atmospheric soundscapes uncovers a sonic ambiguity between rural nature, electronics and the human voice.”

Jupiter sounds NASA-Voyager recording - YouTube
▻https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oWTC7P1Dprw

From an original CD: JUPITER NASA-VOYAGER SPACE SOUNDS (1990) BRAIN/MIND Research
Fascinating recording of Jupiter sounds (electromagnetic “voices”) by NASA-Voyager. The complex interactions of charged electromagnetic particles from the solar wind , planetary magnetosphere etc. create vibration “soundscapes”. It sounds very interesting, even scary.
Jupiter is mostly composed of hydrogen and helium. The entire planet is made of gas, with no solid surface under the atmosphere. The pressures and temperatures deep in Jupiter are so high that gases form a gradual transition into liquids which are gradually compressed into a metallic “plasma” in which the molecules have been stripped of their outer electrons. The winds of Jupiter are a thousand metres per second relative to the rotating interior. Jupiter’s magnetic field is four thousand times stronger than Earth’s, and is tipped by 11° degrees of axis spin. This causes the magnetic field to wobble, which has a profound effect on trapped electronically charged particles. This plasma of charged particles is accelerated beyond the magnetosphere of Jupiter to speeds of tens of thousands of kilometres per second. It is these magnetic particle vibrations which generate some of the sound you hear on this recording.

radio astronomy: a project by r a d i o q u a l i a
▻http://www.radio-astronomy.net

adio Astronomy is an art and science project which broadcasts sounds intercepted from space live on the internet and on the airwaves.

The project is a collaboration between r a d i o q u a l i a, and radio telescopes located throughout the world. Together we are creating ’radio astronomy’ in the literal sense - a radio station devoted to broadcasting audio from our cosmos.

Radio Astronomy has three parts:
– a sound installation
– a live on-air radio transmission
– a live online radio broadcast

Listeners will hear the acoustic output of radio telescopes live. The content of the live transmission will depend on the objects being observed by partner telescopes. On any given occasion listeners may hear the planet Jupiter and its interaction with its moons, radiation from the Sun, activity from far-off pulsars or other astronomical phenomena.

Broadcasting Sounds from Space

Radio Astronomy correlates the processes associated with broadcast radio - the transmission of audible information, and the processes of radio astronomy - the observation and analysis of radiated signals from planets, stars and other astrophysical objects. The work synthesizes these two areas. The signals from planets and stars are converted into audio and then broadcast on-line and on-air. The project is a literal interpretation of the term, ³radio astronomy². It is a radio station broadcasting audio from space.

r a d i o q u a l i a consider radio telescopes to be radio receivers, which are listening to radio signals being transmitted from planets and stars. Thinking of radio in this way radically enlarges the concept. Radio Astronomy is located within this expanded field of radio.

Many of the sounds emitted by these objects are fascinating from both an aesthetic and conceptual perspective, prompting comparisons with avant-garde music and electronic sound art. Yet very few people have heard these sounds, considering space to be silent, rather than the rich acoustic environment it turns out to be.

„Natural Imbalance: The Threat to Female Field-Recorders”, par #Lucy_Jones
▻http://pitchfork.com/thepitch/962-natural-imbalance-the-threat-to-female-field-recorders

Until late this summer, I took daily research walks across a London marshland to inspire a project relating to the area. That was, until I heard about reports of attacks on women near the river. Police thought three different men were responsible; a park ranger told me that one man was cycling up to young, blonde, female joggers in broad daylight, hitting them on the back of the head, and then attempting to assault them. I stopped going, resentful of the fact that my gender made this work unsafe, while my male peers could carry on, unthreatened.

As I sat cooped up at home, I wondered whether this threat to women’s personal safety underpinned the male domination of nature writing and music-making rooted in field recordings. Both depend on being outdoors, alone. Was the comparatively low number of female musicians using nature as a compositional tool a result of feeling vulnerable in certain environments? Were female music-makers taking safety precautions in order to work that their male counterparts weren’t even aware of?

The Wild Sanctuary Audio Archive represents a vast and important collection of whole-habitat field recordings and precise metadata dating from the late 1960s. This unique bioacoustic resource contains marine and terrestrial soundscapes representing the voices of living organisms from larvae to large mammals and the numerous tropical, temperate and Arctic biomes from which they come. The catalog currently contains over 4,500 hours of wild soundscapes and in excess of 15,000 identified life forms.

Fully half of the natural soundscapes in this rare set are from habitats that no longer exist, are radically altered because of human endeavor, or have gone altogether silent.

The first portable audio recorder was made in 1945 by a man named Tony Schwartz. He moved the VU meter from inside of the unit to the top, so he could see the recording volume. And, he put a strap on it so that he could hang the device over his shoulder. Armed with his recorder (and sometimes a secret microphone attached to his wrist), Schwartz chronicled every sound in his Manhattan neighborhood. He recorded children singing songs in the park, street festival music, jukeboxes in restaurants, vendors peddling vegetables, and more than 700 conversations with cab drivers, just to name a few examples.

Creating the Sounds of Star Wars™ Battlefront™ - Star Wars - Official EA Site
▻http://starwars.ea.com/starwars/battlefront/news/creating-the-sounds-of-star-wars-battlefront

The DICE sound team has been very fortunate with how much knowledge sharing and support that they have received from Skywalker Sound. Over various visits to Skywalker Ranch, members of the team have been able to meet and discuss the sound of Star Wars™, with Star Wars sound design legends Ben Burtt and Matt Wood, and they have also been given access to the original sounds and stems from the films.

As well as asking how the original sounds were created and the stories and reasoning behind them, the team also brought along Frostbite to demonstrate some of the challenges in creating the audio of Star Wars™ Battlefront™, elaborating on how they would build upon the legacy sounds to fill all of the worlds and experiences that lay ahead. The focus and goal was to embrace the original sounds, staying as true as possible to their original feel and intent.

Whilst at Skywalker Ranch, the sound team also recorded Foley sessions with Dennie Thorpe and Jana Vance, to capture audio source material for all the movement and surface interactions in the game, as well as blaster Foley, capes, and other bespoke recordings that goes to make up the unique Star Wars sounds.

Being so close to the original filming location for Endor, it also made sense to go out into the local woods and capture some new material. DICE’s Audio Director Ben Minto continues:

BEN MINTO: What we were really after were recordings of the “air” or the “feel” of the pacific coastal redwoods, which is the location where the forest moon of Endor was filmed. If you can get away from today’s noise pollution, you can experience this very delicate and quiet sound that is something that we strive to add in as a layer when designing ambiences. It really helps to put the player in that specific environment and sell the sensation of being surrounding by those giant trees.

We spent two days recording in different reserves, capturing the “air” and other obvious Endor sounds, but also looking at how sounds travel through a forest. Clean, real recordings like these are very useful for us when making quadraphonic ambiences and for adding the right sense of space and life; being there in person and experiencing those surroundings makes it easier when trying to recreate that feel in the studio.

A propos de #tourisme_noir, il me semblait avoir déjà mis cette référence sonore ici, mais apparemment non. Donc : un #livre et un #CD de l’artiste #Peter_Cusack, dont le titre résume tout : Sounds from Dangerous Places (les sons des endroits dangereux)
▻http://www.sounds-from-dangerous-places.org

‘What can we learn of dangerous places by listening to their sounds?’

‘Sonic Journalism’ is the aural equivalent of photojournalism. It describes the practice where #field_recordings play a major role in the discussion and documentation of places, issues and events and where listening to sounds of all kinds strongly informs the approach to research and following narratives whilst on location.

Recent travels have brought me into contact with some difficult and potentially dangerous places. Most are areas of major environmental/ecological damage, but others are nuclear sites or the edges of military zones. The danger is not necessarily to a short-term visitor, but to the people of the area who have no option to leave or through the location’s role in geopolitical power structures. Dangerous places can be both sonically and visually compelling, even beautiful and atmospheric. There is, often, an extreme dichotomy between an aesthetic response and knowledge of the ‘danger’, whether it is pollution, social injustice, military or geopolitical.
Places visited include:

– Chernobyl exclusion zone, Ukraine;
– Caspian oil fields, Azerbaijan;
– Tigris and Euphrates rivers valleys in South Eastern Turkey threatened by massive dam building projects;
– North Wales, UK, where Chernobyl fallout still affects sheep farming practice;
– nuclear, military and greenhouse gas sites in the UK, including Sellafield, Dungeness, Bradwell, Sizewell, Thetford Forest, Rainham and Uttlesford;

“Preserving the Fading Sounds of Delhi’s Street Vendors”
▻http://www.citylab.com/work/2015/04/preserving-the-fading-sounds-of-delhis-street-vendors/390687

A day in #Delhi is anything but routine. With a growing population of 17 million people, the Indian capital has recently emerged as an ever-shifting global hub. Yet one thing has remained constant for generations: the echoing chants of the city’s pheriwhallas, or street vendors.

“People wake up to the sound of hawkers coming to sell eggs, fruit, [and] vegetables,” explains #Rashmi_Kaleka, a Delhi-based artist. “By the afternoon one has the cobbler—the chaader walla. On Sunday one gets the mala walla, the man who will mend your old jewelry.”

Kaleka may appreciate the vocal beauty of the city’s pheriwallas more than the average Delhi resident. She’s been recording their chants since 2005, and her work was recently featured on a BBC podcast.
