Singing Sand Dunes
(from a discussion of the acoustic-ecology list) For centuries, explorers have reported that crescent-shaped sand dunes can emit low sounds like that of a turbo-prop airplane (giving rise to a legend involving the ghost of a buried dinosaur). Apparently the best way to experience the effect is to climb to the top of a dune and then slide down the steep slip face (causing a small avalanche). A news item in the 4 April issue of Science (page 47), describes how a team headed by Stephane Douady was able to replicate this sound by slowly turning 72 kg of Moroccan sand in a 2 meter doughnut shaped container. Douady believes that this phenomenon can be explained by something called the Reynolds dilatency—a vibration created by the dilation and compression of air as grains separate and come together. (http://www.lorentz.leidenuniv.nl/~mvhecke/Workshop/ granular_workshop.html). For more links and sound recordings of singing sand see http://www-personal.engin.umich.edu/~nori/booming_sand.html http://www.desertusa.com/magjan98/dunes/jan_dune1.html http://www.bigai.ne.jp/~miwa/sand/index.html http://www.schweich.com/sbdA.html http://www.wissenschaft.de/wissen/news/257682.html http://www.arxiv.org/abs/nlin.AO/0412047v1 There are also the singing dunes of the Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore (southern shore of Lake Michigan, in northern Indiana, US). Numerous web sites about the dunes, but nothing about this phenomena in particular (at least nothing that I turned up with a quick search). An excellent recording of booming sand dunes made at Sand Mountain, Nevada, is featured on the CD Pulse of the Planet: Extraordinary Sounds From the Natural World, along with an explanation of the phenomena.

During the Third Reich, Staudenmaier goes on to show, Nazi ecologists even made organic farming, vegetarianism, nature worship, and related themes into key elements not only in their ideology but in their governmental policies. Moreover, Nazi ecological ideology was used to justify the destruction of European Jewry. Yet some of the themes that Nazi ideologists articulated bear an uncomfortably close resemblance to themes familiar to ecologically concerned people today. As social ecologists, it is not our intention to deprecate the all- important efforts that environmentalists and ecologists are making to rescue the biosphere from destruction. Quite to the contrary: It is our deepest concern to preserve the integrity of serious ecological movements from ugly reactionary tendencies that seek to exploit the widespread popular concern about ecological problems for regressive agendas. But we find that the ecological scene of our time--with its growing mysticism and antihumanism--poses serious problems about the direction in which the ecology movement will go. In most Western nations in the late twentieth century, expressions of racism and anti-immigrant sentiments are not only increasingly voiced but increasingly tolerated. Equally disconcertingly, fascist ideologists and political groups are experiencing a resurgence as well. Updating their ideology and speaking the new language of ecology, these movements are once again invoking ecological themes to serve social reaction. In ways that sometimes approximate beliefs of progressive-minded ecologists, these reactionary and outright fascist ecologists emphasize the supremacy of the Earth over people; evoke feelings and intuition at the expense of reason; and uphold a crude sociobiologistic and even Malthusian biologism. Tenets of New Age eco-ideology that seem benign to most people in England and the United States--specifically, its mystical and antirational strains-- are being intertwined with ecofascism in Germany today. Janet Biehls essay explores this hijacking of ecology for racist, nationalistic, and fascist ends. Taken together, these essays examine aspects of German fascism, past and present, in order to draw lessons from them for ecology movements both in Germany and elsewhere. Despite its singularities, the German experience offers a clear warning against the misuse of ecology, in a world that seems ever more willing to tolerate movements and ideologies once regarded as despicable and obsolete. Political ecology thinkers have yet to fully examine the political implications of these ideas in the English-speaking world as well as in Germany.

Re: [webartery] Re: [syndicate] O[ne]Ur-Future
What viewpoint? They?
I don't think Linkola is a they. He's basically a kook
I find interesting because of the emotions he represents.
as for David Suzuki and C.W. Nicol, I suppose they are both
respected mainstream ecologists with relatively large readerships.
The nazi article is very instructive, about the differences between
today's environmentalist movements and yesterdays and cautionary as
well. The word ecology itself was coined in Germany in this milieu.
Or you can look at Tre Arrow.

here in Oregon there are usually tree-sittings going on:
Update from Sten tree-sit
Update on the situation at Sten:
Yesterday (sept 14th) contract climbers working for US Forest Service
Law Enforcement and Lane Co. Sheriff's evicted 2 of the 3 tree-sits in
Sten unit 43. One tree is still occupied. Active logging has begun
within unit 43.
Today (sept 15th) USFS and Sheriff's Dept LEO's escorted fellers into
the area of the two evicted tree-sits and found one tree had been
reoccupied by an activist during the night. Law enforcement guarded
loggers as they cut trees around the activist, who remains in the tree
at last report. Two activists were arrested on the ground, both were
charged with interfering with an agricultural operation. Another
activist is remaining in the third tree-sit further down the hill that
was not evicted yesterday.
A police report was filed yesterday september 14th by an independent
journalist who was present during the arrow attack last weekend. The
report was taken by 2 officers from Lane Co. Sheriff's office. These
same 2 Sheriff's were on-site today(sept 15th)in unit 43 at Sten,
evidently the Lane Co. Sheriff's Department feels arresting forest
activists is more important than finding violent criminals who would
attempt to kill them.
Activists are continuing to occupy the forest at Sten and prevent
further logging. Updated information will be provided as it comes in.
so i guess {shrugging}
until ecology becomes the main focus of social policy
it doesn't seem like much real progress will be made. Otherwise,
i suppose suicide seems like a plausible alternative if the reality
of human apathy in the face of earth's impending devastruction seems
too horrible to experience.

download itunes use the built in encoder... there are literally dozens of programs out there, but that might very well be the easiest. I would bet Peak probably has a plugin that will do the same, I haven't used Peak in years so don't remember. if you save them at 256 kbps VBR (variable bit rate) you'll generate very high quality mp3s.. ~mIEKAL On Sep 18, 2005, at 4:54 PM, mwp wrote: Teach me!

Toad to Geist
Moab tuned turtle wasabi sunrise Blowhole gay with lickerish vipers And smelted an english radio hung Heavy with left-wing melancholia* And distinguished abstraction. Patchen, crippled, would listen To an inner ocean, would read, Would paint some tiny euglena Of poetic imagination standing As tall as it could beneathe the Lumbering machinery shoveling Bodies into the mouth of history. In the house of green skin Is the girl I adore. Nothing. I know nothing anymore. The world just happens in parking lots. And in fields. I think. What I responded To then was innocence. But now I am sitting At a computer most of the time...** Moab tuned jacaranda bellicose night-light Blowhole grey with invincible cruisers And smelted an english radio hung Heavy with hopeful denominations And extinguished abstraction And yet Cause and effect still ~ ?o.b./t|(r)[a]in|.t - The silhouette of a single continuous Miracle. *Walter Benjamin criticized Erich Kästner's poems, coining the phrase left-wing melancholia. According to Benjamin, the left melancholic takes as much pride in the traces of the former spiritual goods as the bourgeois do in their material goods. http://www.kirjasto.sci.fi/kastner.htm **Values of clarity, transparency, plain sincerity, honest feeling, and so forth, when trumpeted as values, are invariably retrograde values. This is so not because there's anything wrong with clear, transparent linguistic expression in poetry (there are countless emergent poems that exhibit those qualities), but because the act of trumpeting in itself is aggressively encoded with militant and militaristic anxieties over territory and property. http://limetree.ksilem.com/

Re: [webartery] Re: [syndicate] O[ne]Ur-Future
In an odd way, I wouldn't to argue this with you. We're fairly active in these areas, and will continue to be. Personally I've lost interest in the philosophical issues; there's too much to do on a practical level - one reason in fact we want to leave NYC. And there are literally hundreds of thousands of people trying to fight back - for example the movement to restore the tall-grass prairie.

Philosophy of [spam] Pornography
Philosophy of [spam] Pornography How're you doing? Pelite teen pussy doing all sort of nasty things: masturbating, licking pussy, fingering herself [...] The 1980s are to debt what the 1960s were to sex. The 1960s left a hangover. So will the 1980s. Just girls, playing, posing hot and teasing each other. Action is coarsened thought thought becomes concrete, obscure, and unconscious. Don't waste your chance to see beauty in the very prime of life ! Refrain from asking what going to happen tomorrow, and everyday that fortune grants you, count as gain. He seems determined to make a trumpet sound like a tin whistle. _
A Note from Edx in Cambodia
Well! The first thing that went wrong was that the hotel car was not waiting when we arrived, and we had to wait 20 minutes in the tropical heat! I don't want you to think that I am one to bitch when things don't go as expected, but get this - the car didn't have any complimentary Scotch when it did get there! Other than that, things have been going well. The whores are top class and demand condoms. They observe French customs here, and other than the one-too-many problem and the occasional substitution of a Thai for a Cambodian, we are quite happy. Of course the one-legged kids are a constant annoyance - I don't know how many I hate land mines! T-Shirts they have managed to sell me, but if you know anything about Asia, you know that XXX_Large in a T-Shirt is the same as Medium in America, so I haven't unwrapped any of the packages. On a more interesting note, they have a pizza parlor here called Ecstasy Pizza. Drugs are technically illegal here, and thank god I only use drugs in countries with a Death Sentence for smuggling, so I ordered an ordinary pepperoni, no additives. They charged me an extra 200,000r and spiced it up anyway. The only bad experience we had was when, after a long night of drink and entertainment, we were unable to locate an ATM machine. The Khmer Rouge kindly refrained from murdering us, but they did kindly loan us 3 soldiers to stay with us until the French girl opened the money desk. All kidding aside, this is a good place to look at buildings. The lady-boys are not as good as the Thai lady-boys, but I'd defy anyone to distinguish a Thai/Cambodian/Vietnamese/Laotian woman/whore on the basis of a photograph. My new Cambodian GF is unbelievably perfectly physically beautiful - she makes a HK girl look like Western skank. I think it has something to do with Buddhism..
