AUDITORIAL – Bernie Krause and Soundscape Ecology
A Sounding Wild x Spatial Audio Labs Spatial Sound Design, Mix and Master work for The Guardian and Google.
The Guardian has launched an experimental feature format on World Accessibility Awareness Day, in partnership with Google and the Royal National Institute of Blind People.
This is a 17-minute audio-only story about Bernie Krause, pioneer of the ‘Soundscape Ecology’ research field, his life and what’s ahead of us. The experience is played back on a specifically-built platform that aims to make stories more accessible to visually-impaired people. Image resolution, colors and audio complexity can be chosen to personalise the experience based on each other needs.

Everyone told the filmmakers at Habitat XR that filming African leopards in the wild was impossible. The solitary animals are notoriously hard to catch on camera and are declining in population around the world due to habitat loss.
But these filmmakers were inspired to catch the animals on camera for an educational project for kids. A passionate Belgian philanthropist asked them to create an immersive VR education experience on Africa’s famously dangerous Big Five animals—lions, leopards, rhinos, elephants and buffalo.
Not only did Habitat XR manage to film the leopards, they even got one on a kill and another one sniffing the camera! Check out the full 8K 360 video below (be sure to toggle on 8K quality for the highest clarity).
