One Year Alone in the Forest: Day 1

In this video, I take you into the wilderness to install a long-term, unattended field recording rig featuring the Wildlife Acoustics SM4. This recorder will run continuously for an entire year; capturing the unbroken rhythms of nature, free from human presence and untouched by anthropogenic noise. This project was inspired by Joshua Bonnetta’s recent work The Pines, which meditates on time, ecology, and the act of listening. Like Bonnetta, I’m drawn to the subtle transformations of a single place—how one soundscape morphs across seasons, how silence shifts in tone, and how life emerges in layers that can only be heard through patience. I’ll return at least once a month to swap SD cards and replace the dual 10Ah battery packs that keep the recorder running. While this method departs from my recent goal of intentional, in-person recordings, it reflects a compromise born of necessity: for now, my field trips are brief and rarely remote enough to fully escape noise pollution. But this setup allows me to continue pursuing my love of pure nature sound; captured with care, and in a place far removed from the mechanical world. Over the coming months, I’ll share excerpts from the recordings, observations from my visits, and reflections on how the wilderness changes—not just audibly, but emotionally—through each season. This is a long-form listening experiment, a quiet collaboration with time, weather, and wildness. Subscribe if you’d like to follow the journey. My Motivation: As a naturalist and field recording artist, I am seeking the quietest places in the world. Along my travels, I capture recordings of singing birds, rain showers, waterfalls, bugs and other natural sounds. I believe there is medicine in these sonic landscapes and I want to share these healing sounds with you. Our genetic code evolved alongside nature and hardwired us to respond to our landscape. That's why it's natural to relax while listening to birds, jump in response to snakes, and even to sleep at night. I hope that by listening to natural soundscapes, you will reconnect with nature. Allow nature to teach you through her sounds. Nature is calling, it's time we listened.
