I have worked with Very Low Frequency (VLF) natural radio extensively since 2013, using it as a medium for sound art, documentary, composition, installation and audio-visual works that combine elements of both art and science. In addition to my artistic works with VLF I have created and published a user guide and teaching resource called VLF: A Sound Artist’s Guide. This guide has been accessed internationally and forms the basis of a series of workshops called Magnetic Signals and Radiophonic Soundscapes which I have taught by myself internationally. The guide is also featured in the collection of several libraries and museums as well as being used as a teaching resource.
