Tonal  is an audio project exploring water issues nationally with a special focus on the River Tone in Somerset. Flow is the second of three features, and is all about flow and constriction – how water management like weirs, canalisation and urbanisation affect wildlife, with a special focus on eels  and salmon.  
It features Dr Bel Deering of Somerset Rivers Authority, artist James Aldridge, angler and scientist Simon Ratsey, Oliver Hill of the Environment Agency, artist Anne Marie Culhane  of Tidelines, and Vanessa Becker Hughes of the Somerset Eel Recovery Project.

Mycelium - {sound} art as underlying network for advanced {deeper} listening
http://mycelium.poemproducer.com/

They grow in secret and yet form the largest living organisms
in the world: mycelia, the subterranean filament of fungi.
In this, the sound artist Antye Greie-Ripatti {AGF} sees a metaphor
for political activism in the age of the Internet.
Here, too, small cells are interlacing in the subsurface to effect the greater.
For her radio composition "Mycelium" Greie-Ripatti therefore sonifies
the vital functions of the forest plants and contrasts them
with voices of activists from all over the world.
This creates a multi-lingual sound network,
which transports a quiet but sustainable utopia: Together we are strong.

{text Marcus Gammel, Deutschlandradio Kultur}

Encouraged by Paul Stamets: 6 ways mushrooms can save the world
Inspired by Peter McCoy and Radical Mycology
In admiration for the people's political activism.

Fiona MacDonald works collectively as Feral Practice to create art projects that deepen and expand our connection beyond the human. Often people set up a divide between human and nonhuman being and between different categories of knowledge and understanding. Feral Practice works across these barriers.
