Sound is a travelling wave which is an oscillation
of pressure transmitted through a solid, liquid, or gas,
composed of frequencies within the range of hearing and
of a level sufficiently strong to be heard, or the
sensation stimulated in organs of hearing by such vibrations.
For humans, hearing is normally limited to frequencies
between about 12 Hz and 20,000 Hz, although these
limits are not definite. The upper limit generally
decreases with age. Other species have a different range
of hearing. For example, dogs can perceive vibrations higher
than 20 kHz. As a signal perceived by one of the major senses,
sound is used by many species for detecting danger, navigation,
predation, and communication.
Earth's atmosphere, water, and virtually any physical phenomenon,
such as fire, rain,wind, surf, or earthquake, produces
(and is characterized by) its unique sounds.
Many species, such as frogs, birds, marine and terrestrial mammals, have also developed special organs to produce sound. In some species, these have evolved to produce song and speech. Furthermore, humans have developed culture and technology (such as music, telephone and radio) that allows them to generate, record, transmit, and broadcast sound. I create music from chaotic sampled sources and effected media generated noise. My objective is finding unusual reactions within unique styles of viable sound. Side projects keep things interesting so contact me here for collaborations. Find my other work called Solar Research here.
