Terrain Instruments:
a tree, an ice floe,
human made objects for listening to and the overhearing
of vibrations stirred by wind, ice/water movements and
other natural vibrational phenomena: "global's artifacts".

Overall,
Terrain
Instrument
sensors
coupled with solar-powered electronic preamps are my preference
for the unheard vibrations which are possible with these and
similarly constructed parts. I concentrate on sounds which come
directly from natural sources (e.g.,winds, ice floes).
