World Listening Day 2010

i'd like to point you to the proposal for the first World Listening Day
next sunday. from the website:

---
You are invited to participate in the first World Listening Day, which
happens on Sunday, July 18, 2010. The purposes of World Listening Day are:

* to celebrate the practice of listening as it relates to the world around us, environmental awareness, and acoustic ecology
* to raise awareness about issues related to the World Soundscape Project, World Listening Project, World Forum for Acoustic Ecology, and individual and group efforts to creatively explore phonography
* to design and implement educational initiatives which explore these concepts and practices
---

you'll find the press release and further information at
http://www.worldlisteningproject.org/?p=667

radio aporee participates in this event, and asks you for help in creating a world wide "sound snapshot" of this specific day. if possible, please send an audio recording from your actual location, or other places of your interest. i'll then create a dedicated project page on the aporee map for the hopefully numerous contributions... besides of having a nice documentation, i'm really intrigued by the idea of listening to the sounds of a particular day, around the world... hope it works.

website: http://aporee.org/maps/
file format: mp3, 128 - 320kbit, 44 or 48kHz
size: max. 25MB

in case of questions, please let me know.
best, u
