🔊Go listen to Marco's awesome new podcast on bioacoustics! I might be partial, but both guests ( @nicolasmathevon.bsky.social & @mhoeschele.bsky.social ) are beyond amazing💚🎶
🎼What is octave equivalence?
🎶Do animals use notes and octaves?
In the second episode of Acoustic World, we talk about it with @mhoeschele.bsky.social from ARI Vienna’s "Musicality and Bioacoustics" group.

This year marks the 100th birthday of #bioacoustics, established by Ivan Regen in 1925, which studies how animals hear, produce and propagate sound.
Let’s discover this discipline with @nicolasmathevon.bsky.social, Professor of Saint Etienne University, in the first episode of Acoustic World.
