Fishing for Sounds Workshop: exploring the sounds of Lake Nipissing

‘Fishing for Sounds’ is a community sound and radio workshop that explores the sounds of Lake Nipissing in winter. These sounds will include the sounds of the ice, the snow, the sounds around the ice shacks and the sound of the water under the ice. Participants will build micro-radio transmitters and contact mics. They will record sounds with contact mics, portable flash recorders as well as with a hydrophone under the ice in Lake Nipissing, then edit the sounds to create an underwater soundscape and presented as part of a radio art installation opening on February 20th.
