On International Dawn Chorus Day over the first weekend in May, soundCamp will coordinate the 5th crowd-sourced radio broadcast of sounds of daybreak, starting on Saturday 5th May in the early morning London time and running for 24hours until Sunday 6th.

The mechanism for a continuous live daybreak loop was pioneered via the Locus Sonus network by Ragnar Helgi Ólafsson and Páll Thayer in 2010. Since 2014 we have given the loop an ecological twist, listening out for human and non human points of contact.

Reveil brings open microphones on the Locus Sonus soundmap together with hydrophone observatories, aircraft intercepts and webcam grabs, but the core of the broadcast is here.

We invite you to open your microphones for the broadcast.
