I’ve never heard Cicadas* as loud as those in Zadar earlier this summer so I got the recorder out and grabbed a snapshot of the cacophony.This wasn’t just an evening thing though….all. day. long. If there was a tree, it was singing. This snippet was made on the side of the road on the way back to our apartment after recording the sea organ
*may not actually be Cicadas but close enough.
Loads of photos from this trip on Instagram - instagram.com/itsonlyrobjones/

The Sea Organ.
The sound of the sea through the Sea Organ of Zadar, Croatia
The Sea organ is an architectural sound art object located in Zadar, Croatia which plays music by way of waves passing through tubes located underneath a set of large marble steps.
Chaotic reconstruction work was undertaken to repair the devastation Zadar suffered in the Second World War The frantic reconstruction turned much of the sea front into an unbroken, monotonous concrete wall.
The device was made by the architect Nikola Bašić (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikola_Ba%C5%A1i%C4%87) as part of the project to redesign the new city coast (Nova rive) and the site was opened to the public on 15 April 2005.
In 2006, the Sea Organ was awarded with the prize ex-aequo (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ex_aequo_et_bono#Ex_aequo) of the fourth edition of the European Prize for Urban Public Space (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Prize_for_Urban_Public_Space).

Lost in the Supermarket
As the late Joe Strummer once sang "I'm lost in the supermarket, I can no longer shop binaurally" or something similar.
I took a wander around my local food emporium with my binaural microphones in my ears. Maybe commit to both earbuds for this one.
