Doug Quin (North Carolina, US) does it all-straight field recordings,
subtle reconstructions, contemporary composition, and museum sound
installations. While in Antarctica on a National Science Foundation
expedition to McMurdo Sound, he could hear-and feel-the sounds of giant
weddell seals through six feet of sea ice. His hydrophones picked up
a strange and wonderful sonic community, including weddells, leopard
seals, orcas, ice fracturing, and Adelie penguins diving into the water.
