In this tutorial, I explain how to build the exact same solar-powered audio streamers we use in the forest.

Sonic Forest is a real-time sonification environment converting climate data from the forest to musical sound in order to facilitate public awareness on climate change as well as the ecological rhythms that I have created as part of my MSc Final Project.

On Tuesday 9th September 2025, we presented the Sensing the Forest project at UKAIRS in Newcastle, UK.

We went for two visits to the Alice Holt Forest on 26 August 2025 and 1 September 2025 to dismantle the two streamers and the Dendrophone installation, respectively.

A group of incoming Queen Mary University PhD students, led by Dr Anna Xambó Sedó, visited Alice Holt Forest on Monday August 18th, in the heart of the summer holidays.

With this final year project I hoped to create a proof of concept for a device that would allow you to open your phone and see the state of your environment on a local level.

We presented the Sensing the Forest project at the International Conference on Live Coding 2025, Barcelona, Catalonia.

Last month, I, alongside colleagues and friends from Queen Mary University of London, took a day out of our busy schedules to visit Hampshire to experience Dendrophone.

We visited Alice Holt Forest on Friday, 4th July 2025, as part of a field-trip funded by the ‘Sensing the Forest’ research project, an interdisciplinary exploration blending art and science to raise awareness of climate change and forest behaviour through immersive sound installations, led by Dr. Anna Xambó Sedó.

The inspiration for my final year project came from the Sensing the Forest project, which focuses on collaborative and interdisciplinary approaches to studying the relationship between forests and climate change.

We are happy to announce the publication of this blog post on the Freesound blog about two ongoing datasets from DIY streamers at Alice Holt Forest, UK

We went for a 21st visit to the Alice Holt Forest on 26 June 2025. The main goal of this field trip was to show Pete's Dendrophone installation to Christopher Meigh-Andrews and maintenance checks.
