-The soundscape is composed with FoAM's field recordings made on Seili during the spring of 2019 and sonification of data collected at The Archipelago Research Institute over several decades. The time series used in the sound walk include oceanographic data (such as temperature, salinity,  presence of chlorophyl, and oxygen levels) of the sea surrounding the island.

 This walk includes a soundtrack as part of the experience. You will need a device that can play sound with earbuds or headphones (such as phone or mp3 player) for listening during the walk. The soundfile is one hour long, and the walk should take approximately an hour. This walk includes a soundtrack as part of the experience.

 When you start playback take a few moments to experiment with listening at different volumes. You should be able to hear the recorded sound as part of the current soundscape on the island, so it's best to avoid noise cancelling headphones.  When you start playback take a few moments to experiment with listening at different volumes.

 +Recorded and resynthesised with the landscapes and inhabitants on Seili in the Archipelago Sea, with co-operation of a Sennheiser AMBEO VR Mic (and Deadkitten), Zoom-H6, Sony PCM-D100, H2a hydrophone, miscellaneous mobile phones and computers for audio and data processing using Ardour, Audacity, SuperCollider, Tidal, LibreOffice, Emacs, with an adhoc collection of racket and python scripts. Thanks to their material substrate and the myriad invisible products of human effort and ingenuity.  
 + 
 +Thanks to all the animate, inanimate and partially animate participants in the field recordings and time series. Thanks to the dawn and twilight choruses, to the insects near the viking garden and the mosses of Leper's rock. To the reeds and grasses, trees and pebbles. To the moth catcher and the dying fridge of Portti pääty. To the rain, dew and sea water. To the droning ships and airplanes, the background hum of the Eurovision Song Contest and other spectral disturbances. To the critters crawling through lichen and floating in the shallows, invisible to human eyes. To the ticks and herring, zooplankton and phytoplankton, and the changing levels of salt, oxygen and chlorophyl in the Archipelago Sea. To the birds and bats, and many others who walked and fluttered near or across our microphones. Thank you. This soundscape would not have been possible without you.
