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

Before there were any stars or galaxies, 13.8 billion years ago, our universe was just a ball of hot plasma -- a mixture of electrons, protons, and light.
This program explains what we hear when we listen to “sounds from space” and the ways in which scientific study of the distribution and metamorphosis of the original energetic content of the “Big Bang” has enabled the mapping of the cosmos.
