Sunsong by Patrick Sykes published on 2013-07-16T10:20:52Z The skies are never silent. Invisible to the naked eye, VLF, or Very Low Frequency radio waves, are the sonic equivalent to the stunning visual aurorae that illuminate the planet's poles. Caused by the interaction of solar energy with the charged part of the Earth’s atmosphere, they can only be made audible with special equipment. This audio feature blends original recordings of VLF sounds with the voices of those who work with them, from science to sound art, King’s Cross to California. With thanks to: Dan Tapper, sound artist (www.magneticsignals.tumblr.com) Stephen McGreevy, VLF recordist (www.auroralchorus.com) Dr Simon Foster, Imperial College London Camley Street Natural Park Produced by Patrick Sykes (www.patrickjsykes.com) Genre Short Feature Comment by Janmeeba I just came across this subject(VLF and natural radios) and this seems really interesting. Only if i had money to build myself a receiver to capture those sounds too... :( 2014-10-12T23:04:41Z Comment by user310342826 weather 2014-08-28T00:49:18Z
