This immersive audiovisual art experience celebrates the splendor of the animal world—and makes an unforgettable plea for preserving it. From rainforests and deserts to Arctic tundra and coral reefs, hear the howls, croaks, hums, trills, clicks, growls, and cries of animals in the wild, and see this rich symphony of sound made visible through real-time streaming spectrograms. Catch a screening of Bernie Krause: A Life with The Great Animal Orchestra (dir. Vincent Tricon, 2021, 37 min.), and further investigate the phenomena of sound in related exhibits throughout the Exploratorium.
