Hydrophone Demo

Here is a collection of sounds recorded with our hydrophone. Some of these sounds were recorded in the music school pond, and some were recorded by me and Ayal in the Huron River. The first three sounds are Spencer throwing big rocks into the frozen pond and breaking the ice. You can hear the ice chunks breaking apart and the sound of bubbles. The fourth sound is an active spot in the river where shallow water was flowing over rocks. The fifth and sixth sounds are the hydrophone skipping along fast-flowing water so that it goes back and forth between underwater and above water. The short periods of silence that sound like edits are just the sound of the hydrophone above water. The seventh sound is the rushing water of the dam. The eighth sound is the hydrophone on the surface of a wavy part of the river. You can hear it dip below and above the water.
