Hydrology: Earth Optimism
Hydrology features underwater recordings of diverse aquatic soundscapes from locations including Mexico’s Sian Ka’an Biosphere Reserve, Norway’s Kvina River, and Queensland’s coastline. Created by Leah Barclay for the Earth Optimism Summit in Washington, DC, the work connects ecological sounds with the voices of water protectors and river communities worldwide.
Soundwalk: “Aquí habita un río” (A river lives here)
This post explores the relationship between Panama City and its urban waterways through a multisensorial soundwalk along the six-kilometer Matasnillo River, the most polluted in the area. It offers an open letter reflecting on what the river reveals about the environment and human connection from its source to the ocean.

River Listening is an interdisciplinary research project exploring the cultural and biological diversity of global river systems through sound. The project examines the creative possibilities of accessible and noninvasive recording technologies to monitor river health and engage local communities in the conservation of global river systems. River Listening combines emerging fields of science with acoustic ecology, creativity and digital technology to further the understanding of aquatic biodiversity and inspire action at a time when the conservation and management of freshwater ecosystems is a critical priority.
This River Listening installation has been created for the 2017 Sound + Environment conference at the University of Hull and features soundscapes from river systems across the world.
