If you\u2019ve ever wanted some sort of audio equivalent, we present to you something called Tree.fm. The site provides looping recordings of various forests around the world.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/longhaulmovingpros.com\/?p=1066\">Report Says \u2018Hundreds\u2019 of Users Asked ChatGPT About Bioweapons and Poisons, and It Answered<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The immediate appeal of this site is that it\u2019s basically the complete opposite of what you hear when you open the window: no sirens, no shouting lunatics, no trucks rattling by at velocities that can only be described as \u201cunwise.\u201d Instead, it\u2019s just the sound of a forest far, far away.<\/p>\n<p>Apart from providing an instant dose of serenity, though, these recordings are interesting in their own right. If you\u2019re into birding, you\u2019ll probably be in heaven using one of those apps that can detect and identify birdsong to figure out exactly which warbling avians you\u2019re listening to. Either way, it\u2019s fascinating to hear the differences between a forest in, say, Fiji, and one in Sweden.<\/p>\n<div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The bird calls are obviously completely different, but so is the ambient noise, or lack thereof. Some of this is probably down to the nature of the actual recordings\u2014they\u2019re donated by people around the world, so they almost certainly use different recording devices\/ microphones\/settings\/etc\u2014but even so, it\u2019s striking that some forests seem completely silent but for the sound of birds, whereas in others there\u2019s a sort of low-level ambient rustle of leaves and movement through the undergrowth, etc.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/longhaulmovingpros.com\/?p=1064\">Apple Is Reportedly Worried About Its Non-Creepy Reputation as It Prepares to Enter a Creepy Product Category<\/a><\/p>\n<div>\n<\/div>\n<p>If you want to know exactly where the recording to which you\u2019re listening was made, you can click on the location text provided at the bottom of the window, which will take you to a pin dropped on Google Maps. The recordings themselves are all preserved\/hosted at archive.org, and can be accessed by clicking on the name of the person who donated them.<\/p>\n<p>The site\u2019s \u201cAbout\u201d page explains that Tree.fm was created by German agency New Now, and that it was \u201cmade possible\u201d by a project called \u201cSounds of the Forest,\u201d which is an open source library of forest recordings. Those recordings were originally solicited for a performance at the 2021 Timber Festival in the UK, where artists would \u201crespond to\u201d the recordings by incorporating them into musical pieces. (The results of this project remain on the Timber Festival site, and are also well worth a listen.) The creators of tree.fm also shout out field recording-focused online radio site Radio Aporee.<\/p>\n<div>\n<\/div>\n<p>As far as we can tell, though, while the Sounds of the Forest recordings are released under the Creative Commons license and could (presumably) be incorporated into Tree.fm, the latter\u2019s recordings seem to form their own, separate library. If you want to contribute to that library, you can do so via the big \u201cSend us your forest recordings\u201d on the site\u2019s \u201cAbout\u201d page\u2014otherwise, just grabs some headphones, sit back and enjoy the serenity.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/longhaulmovingpros.com\/?p=1063\">Nanoleaf Smart Multicolor Ceiling Light Review: A Paper Plate on Your Ceiling<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Serenity now!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1067,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1068","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-culture"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.7 -
