I got the chance to go and see Chris Watson, forerunning audio recordist, in Bournemouth as part of the Arts Festival. This guy is phenomenal and very passionate and informative about what he does, I would urge anyone to see him talk if the can as he is very open with techniques, equipment and rivetting stories of the natural and man-made world of sound.

I then went on the field trip day to Brownsea Island the next day where we took hydrophonic, contact and parabolic mics to capture some of the sounds of the island and to glean knowledge from Chris himself on what to record and where, and why. It was a fantastic day!

RING! An experience
On 1/10/13 I went to see/listen to Ring. What an experience to be sat in pitch black room with 200 other people and binaural recorings played to simulate your journey to another room. It was pretty epic and at times terrifying.
