In this context he has been capturing and exploring sounds from, for example, volcanicearth, ice, atmospheric phenomena, nuclear power plants and deserted places.^[1] His piece "Labyrinthitis" was created from sounds recorded inside his inner ear.^[1] Recording tools used include accelometers, hydrophones and home-built electromagnetic receivers.
