Fundamental Resonance is a broadcast series exploring a new approach to the audition of acoustic,  mechanical,  and electromagnetic vibrations.   Each episode combines an audio essay with a soundscape,  composed of examples of the phenomena discussed,  as a way to explore the unreachable,  reveal the hidden,  and manifest what lies beyond the senses.


Fundamental Resonance is an audio supplement to the art exhibition
Energy Fields: Vibrations of the Pacific
