The Absent Listener (May 5, 2025) - #soundscape video for #binaural #listening on #headphones YouTube video by The Absent Listener

Composer Annea Lockwood is wearing headphones on a river shore. She is leaning back against a sloping concrete wall that curves into a river, possibly a place to put in boats.  She is wearing a black T-shirt and is smiling.

Annea Lockwood shares why recording river sounds matters to her on today's edition of Making Waves. Her river sound map works, like the one for the Hudson River, anticipate by decades current interests in sound mapping. Listen at wavefarm.org/wf/archive/d...
