Vulnerability in life and artSurf womanIn this episode, I talk about what surfing means to me. It's a challenge on many different levels. Most importantly, it is teaching me what the real challenge is, in my relationship to the ocean, control, and lessons still to learn. Be sure to check out the book Nature of Surf Women @nature_of_surfwomen written by Ivana Bajic @ivanabajic with photography by Gabriela Tellez and audio recordings by Martyn Stewart.

Naturesound podcastThe State of the PlanetThe world is literally getting quieter - and not in a good way. Since 1970, we've lost nearly 70% of Earth's wildlife populations, and with them, the natural symphony that once filled our planet.
That's such a striking way to think about extinction - not just in terms of numbers, but in terms of silence. And this story about sound recordist Martyn Stewart really brings that home.
You know what fascinates me? He started recording nature's sounds when he was just 11 years old, back when the world had only 3.5 billion people. The recordings from those early days capture something we can barely...

They marvel at the choreography of humpback whale bubble-netting, laugh about microphone-laden decoy ducks, and close with the serene magic of the Norwegian dawn chorus. It's a cinematic, soulful celebration of nature's voic...

Naturesound podcast3 secondsHere’s a thought: Earth is around 4.5 billion years old. Humans? We’ve only been around for about 140,000 years.
To put that into perspective, imagine Earth’s entire existence compressed into a single 24-hour day. Humans would’ve shown up in the last three seconds. Just three seconds. And look what we’ve managed to do in that blink of time.
We gave ourselves the name *Homo sapiens*, meaning "wise man." But are we really wise? Sure, we’re smart. We’ve figured out how to split atoms and send machines into deep space searching for new planets. But we also used thos...

A LIFE IN SOUNDA Life in Sound – A Sonic Portrait of Martyn StewartAt 2 AM, Martyn Stewart knew exactly where he needed to be—on the beach, listening. The waves rolled in like an old song, wrapping around him in the way only nature can.For Martyn, sound has always been more than just something to hear. It’s been an escape, a refuge, a way to make sense of the world. As a child, it was the call of the wild that helped him through a turbulent home. As an adult, it has been his constant companion—through illness, through change, through life itself.In this

You can’t deny that human activity interferes with nature—whether through habitat loss, climate change, hunting, or destruction. But how many realize that **sound** itself can disrupt the natural world?
This is a recording of the latest SpaceX launch in Florida. I set up a microphone to capture the sonic booms, and what happened next was remarkable—alligators responded to the low frequencies, calling out in reaction.
Does this interfere with their breeding? Their communication? Their survival?

Recently, a talented videographer and good friend invited me to Columbia, Missouri, to help document a truly unique event: the spectacle of a red-winged blackbird roost.
As the sun sank low on the horizon, over two million blackbirds descended on a grassy field in a breathtaking display. Just before dusk, they began to arrive, perching in bare trees until the branches seemed to sprout black, fluttering leaves. More poured in, forming vast, shifting clouds that darkened the sky.

No wars conceived, no famine's grime.
Mother Nature weaves a gentle song,
Where harmony reigns, and peace belongs.
Animals roam in instinct's grace,
No destructive footprints to erase.
They coexist, a balanced chore,
Unlike the chaos mankind may implore.
A symphony of life in every tree,
No battles fought for territory.
The rivers flow with a tranquil ease,
A stark contrast to man's unease.
Man, with the power to create,
Yet often wields it with darker fate.
In nature's arms, a lesson found,
To nurture, not destroy, on sacred ground.

Most people record the ocean by standing close to the shore and pointing a microphone at it.
The thing is, Microphones are not ears….
The best way to record the sounds of the ocean is to do it in three steps and mix them together to create a better perspective.
Try recording 50 yards away, then record another separate track 100 yards away and the same, 150 yards away.
When you mix together it sounds more realistic like this.
