Posted via• @guardian_us : Is your sound on? This is the story of how one man discovered the ecosystem around him was falling silent – and you can hear it for yourself. As a soundscape recordist, Bernie Krause had travelled around the world listening to the planet. But he soon began recording what was happening on his doorstep in California, capturing the sounds of nature in Sugarloaf Park. Originally, Krause never thought of this as a form of data-gathering. He began recording ecosystem sounds simply because he found their rich array of noises beautiful and relaxing. Krause has ADHD and found no medication would work soothe his mind: “The only thing that relieved the anxiety was being out there and just listening to the soundscapes,” he says. But in April last year, Krause played back his recordings and was greeted with something he had not heard before: total silence. “I’ve got an hour of material with nothing, at the high point of spring,” says Krause.
