Listening with ancient trees.
Starting our journey to this ancient forest at midnight,scrabbling o ver large granite stones and undulating paths.

A night walk in a temperate rain forest in Dartmoor Devon UK.
Close your eyes and take a sonic journey of deep earthly time  with this ancient tree that's been a silent witness to layers of history.

The sounds you here are after a warm day are  tiny popping  that is the sound of water passing through the cells of the xylem tubes and cavitating as it mixes with air on its way upwards.

I have wanted to capture for years what goes on behind the bark of a tree,I spent hours with this ancient trees at night to escape as much human noise as possible.Using highly sensitive contact microphones and hydrophones,handmade pre-amps and probes  to make audible the inner workings of trees. I first heard the moss layers of the bark as it  hydrated and dehydrated  then the rumble of the tree moving and the popping of the water,and the odd plane going past.

Internal Sounds of a Tree

Jamie combines art practice with field recordings and sound composition to enable non- anthropocentric readings of post-industrial sites. His experimental practice research methods include multi-sensory technological methods of observation, employing VHF, radio waves, Geiger counters, handmade synths and devices. Alongside using the latest software applications of granular synthesis and spatial audio Jamie creates immersive sound installations and extended electroacoustic/acousmatic compositions.
Jamie is a multi-award-winning artist researcher, has presented his work at International and National symposia and has exhibited and published widely including:

Jamie's work in sound has been broadcasted on Radio 3 Mixing it London (UK) and Resonance  FM  London (UK).Most recently Migration Sounds Oxford University UK,Sites and Memory Project and working with The Freshwater Sounds Archive in collaboration with Dr Jack Greenhalgh Canada Foundation for Innovation.
