Endangered sounds : silence as sonic exploration

Endangered sounds : silence as sonic exploration

Garth Paine

Research output: Chapter in Book / Conference Paper › Conference Paper

Abstract

![CDATA[In early 2001, NASA announced they had captured an echo of the Big Bang!! I have in my head an image of a wind beaten astronaut hanging out a porthole of a distant space ship, test tube in hand, swinging madly at arms length to capture a sample of the echo, an invisible artefact identifiable only by sophisticated sensors onboard. Once gathered, this sample is corked, labelled and safely archived. Of course this is a phantasmic vision, but it was my initial response, and stands as the inspiration for the Endangered Sounds project.]]
