Your Call 042309 Commons - Where can we find silence in our lives?

Where can we find silence in our lives? On the next Your Call we will talk with acoustic ecologist Gordon Hempton, author of One Square Inch of Silence. Hempton has been an advocate for the dwindling number of places where no man-made sound intrudes. How can we preserve and create silent spaces? Should we be creating sanctuaries of silence? Send us an email at feedback@yourcallradio.org or join us live at 11 am. How do you find or create the silence you need? It's Your Call with Rose Aguilar and you.

Guest:
Gordon Hempton in New York
Acoustic ecologist and Emmy Award-winning sound recordist, author of One Square Inch of Silence: One Man's Search for Natural Silence in a Noisy World.
