After the stillness of winter, springtime in Central Ontario (Canada) awakens the ears to a suddenly active soundscape of birds, frogs and the drumming of the ruffed grouse. The first weekend of May at Warbler's Roost (22 KM west of South River) provides an exciting opportunity for media and sound artists of all levels to enjoy the acoustic wonders of the spring season while learning about the art of soundscape recording.
Events include a soundscape concert with guest artist by David Eagle, a “dawn chorus” multi-channel recording, lecture-demonstration on integrating interactive technology with soundscape recordings, and workshops on recording and editing soundscapes with NAISA Artistic Director Darren Copeland.
Practical Details:
- All levels of experience are welcome.
- Equipment available for those who require it. Those with recording equipment are welcome to bring their own.
