Welcome to c/DigitalBioacoustics, a unique niche in the vast universe of online forums and digital communities. At its core, bioacoustics is the study of sound in and from living organisms, an intriguing intersection of biology and acoustics. Digital bioacoustics, an extension of this field, involves using technology to capture, analyze, and interpret these biological sounds. This community is dedicated to exploring these fascinating aspects of nature through a digital lens.
As you delve into c/DigitalBioacoustics, you'll notice it's not just another technical forum. This space transcends the usual drone of server rooms or the monotonous tap-tap of keyboards. Here, members engage in a unique fusion of natural wonders and technological prowess. Imagine a world where the rustling of leaves, the chirping of birds, and the mysterious calls of nocturnal creatures meet the precision of digital recording and analysis.
Within this domain, we, the participants, become both observers and participants in an intricate dance. Our mission is to unravel the mysteries of nature's soundtrack, decoding the language of the wild through the lens of science. This journey is not just about data and graphs; it's about connecting with the primal rhythm of life itself.
As you venture deeper, the poetic essence of our community unfolds. Nature's raw concert, from the powerful songs of mating calls to the subtle whispers of predator and prey, creates a tapestry of sounds. We juxtapose these organic melodies with the mechanical beeps and buzzes of our equipment, a reminder of the constant interplay between the natural world and our quest to understand it.
Our community embodies the spirit of curious scientists and nature enthusiasts alike, all drawn to the mystery and majesty of the natural world. In this symphonic melding of science and nature, we discover not just answers, but also new questions and a deeper appreciation for the complex beauty of our planet.
c/DigitalBioacoustics is more than a mere digital gathering place. It's a living, breathing symphony of stories, each note a discovery, each pause a moment of reflection. Here, we celebrate the intricate dance of nature and technology, the joy of discovery, and the enduring quest for understanding in a world filled with both harmony and dissonance.
For those brave enough to explore its depths, c/DigitalBioacoustics offers a journey like no other: a melding of science and art, a discovery of nature's secrets, and a celebration of the eternal dance between the wild and the wired.

Every time I read about a scientist trying to talk to whales, I get excited, and I think every time that scientists are getting significant closer and this time interspecies communication might actually work.
I feel the same way about this experiment.
Thanks for sharing
You're very welcome! It certainly is very exciting, it would just be the coolest thing ever to cary on conversation with another species!
I had no idea before reading this that the journalist was actually there for the recent birthing(first time a sperm whale birth was caught on camera if I'm not mistaken). There's some cool video of the whales working together to hold the baby above water right after its born. Here's the post with the videos and pics incase you missed it.
Oh I read the article last night, but didn't see any videos or pictures, just New Yorker cartoons. Are there article-related videos and pictures in that article?
This newyorker post we are in now has no videos or images of it, but 3 days ago I made a post of an article that was just about CETI happening to be there for the birthing and that article has videos and images. That is the post that I just linked in my last comment. They must have more footage as well, so I'm hoping they release it!
Oh very cool, thank you, I'll definitely check that out right away
Oh MaN that's some crazy footage, that must be the best job.
I can't believe how clear the drone footage is that you can see them carrying the baby, that's amazing!
Yeah, seriously! I'd love to go down to Dominica just to volunteer with them for a bit.
Whhhooooaaaaa is that an option?
I just looked around some, it seems like they are looking for coders, but, unfortunately, I didn't find anything about physically coming to help out. Still couldn't hurt to ask them though, I don't think they are a huge organization.
Very cool, it would be life altering. I can imagine sitting around with friends years later explaining how I got into marine research
Haha. No, not that I've heard of, just dreaming, couldn't hurt to ask though.
i mean, you can talk to anything if you want to…
Ha, yeah, I suppose it could have been "Can We Talk With Whales?"
