AuroralChorusIvMusicOfTheMagnetosphere Stephen P. McGreevy audio opensource_audio (Besides Natural VLF Radio recordings, I have added a great amount of fascinating acoustic field-recordings at an old desert mine tank (fabulous and bizarre echo/resonance/reverb/effects, and a two-part show (80-minutes-plus) on May 2006 storm-chasing I did with the infamous Richard Heene and SKYWARN (Rickard Heene became the "Balloon Boy Father" in October 2009 - aka. "Science Detective" and his "TSR: Tornado-Seeking-Rocket" project) - see further below.) NATURAL VLF RADIO COMPENDIUM ONGOING - to PRESENT-TIME VLF RECORDINGS: "Auroral Chorus IV: Music of the Magnetosphere - Desert Whistlers:" At the latitudes (both geographical and geomagnetic) of the southern Great Basin Region of the western USA and Mojave Desert regions, lie the area where most of the time, whistlers are the predominant natural VLF radio phenomena. During my travels throughout the beautiful and arid western deserts, I have captured many lovely whistler events, especially in Death Valley and Joshua Tree National Parks. 2012 VLF/Natural Radio AUDIO (MP3) FILES CONTINUOUSLY BEING ADDED: My latest 2011 - 2012 VLF-audio files (primarily California-desert VLF audio) are being added to this Album as VLF events occur that are worth recording at my southerly home-base latitude - (not optimum for fascinating VLF compared to the Auroral Zone). Additionally, on 29 December 2010 I uploaded additional archival MP3 audio-files recorded in Canada, the UK and Ireland, as they represent a great variety of wonderful VLF recordings I have made during my extensive travels abroad, to higher-latitude locations, too. ------- THE ENTIRETY of all of the MP3 audio files on www.spaceweathersounds.com are here as well, plus more. This includes some audio files from my Canadian auroral-zone expeditions. ------- Train Recordings: I made several recordings of passing trains (another recording enjoyment of mine whilst traveling) of Union Pacific trains in Nevada (Sand Pass north of Pyramid Lake) and in eastern Montana, in the Summer of 2001. ------- Loma Prieta Earthquake recordings: It was very serendipitous that I recorded the electronic-Carillion Bells of Santa Rosa Junior College (California) the evening of 17 October 1989, exactly during the Loma Prieta Earthquake (mag. 6.9) in northern California, which occurred at 5:04:14 pm PDT (I have inserted a 1 second silence gap in this recording when I think the quake begins). In the final three minutes of this recording (which begins at about 5:00 p.m. PDT), you can hear students shouting "earthquake!" and other sounds... (I was not attending SRJC but happened to live for a spell adjacent to the college). ------- Tank Experimental Recordings made at the Reward Mine (Inyo County, California): - an old water tank lying on its side makes for amazing audio effects of echoing, resonances, and reverb! ------- ADVENTURE FEATURE (caution, much swearing): Storm Chasing with Richard Heene (Balloon Boy Father) 14 - 15 May 2006 in South Texas - I was invited by the famous Richard Heene, Science Detective, to join him on one of his truly adventuresome storm-chasing adventures! Two part POD-CAST here. The guy was really zany, manic, and very intense, as you will hear... ------------------------------------------------- Stephen P.
