Taiwan Soundscape

The stethoscope is always used by the doctors to diagonise a patient. Wang Wen-Lin, a nurse of the Veteran General Hospital, discovered that the stethoscope can be used as a hearing aid for old people! However, I guess that when using it, you should not shout aloud. Otherwise, the old man's ears would be damaged by you!

World Forum for Acoustic Ecology annual meeting is coming to Asia! The meeting place is in Japan, which is only 3 hours away from Taiwan and no visa is required!
Now it is calling for proposals. Hope people can participate it to make our colourful environmental sounds of Taiwan resonating in the international stage! At the same time, to introduce and share our sounds with friends around the globe.
The proposal is limited to 300 words. The deadline is 15 May 2006. Everybody Go Go Go!

In Yahoo groups, there is a Sound as Art group raised by Bill Thompson. If you are interested in, do have a visit and exchange your views.
