We are soundscape restorers and sonic rewilders. We use sound and listening to support initiatives that make the world sound a little better. We make music too!

It’s #GlobalBigDay - an annual celebration of our feathered friends! To mark this special day, we recorded #birdsong at dawn. A nightingale hid in the tall grasses, and sang, as the east started to glow. We need birdsong in our lives for our #wellbeing! Enjoy…

It’s taken six years to reach the point where we’re ready to start sharing, with the world, the work we’ve been doing to create #regenerative #soundscape in southern #Spain. We believe this work has the potential to create new ways of engaging with issues such as #climatechange.

Spring near @wakehurst_kew. Almost impossible to find a quiet spot with @Gatwick_Airport being so close. We need to escape the anthropophony for our #wellbeing - we need to listen to the more-than-human sing!

We were invited to @thenewtinsomerset last week. Surrounded by the wonderful #soundscape of the estate, we gave a talk and performance (with brassicas grown on the estate!) which described how we use #sound and #listening to create pathways to #regenerative futures!

Did you know that wetlands are the home to 40% of the world’s plant and animal life? The scary fact is 35% of it has been lost or degraded in the last 50 years. It’s so crucial to protect these special areas. #soundscape #rewilding #hydrophone #regeneration #pondlife

Remembering a special summer living in this ‘hut’ in the Lewis Hills, Newfoundland - an experience which showed me the importance of a ‘wild’ mind. My thinking has become domesticated and ‘flabby’ in recent years…and, it needs to change!
