National Trust Asking Public for Sounds of UK Seaside

The National Trust in the UK is asking the British public to send them the sounds of the seaside for a crowdsourced map and eventual music piece.

“The National Trust is asking the public to record the sounds of the seaside for a digital archive. Bosses at the organisation want thousands of recordings to be uploaded onto a digital map, which will be curated by the British Library.”

I actually heard about this on BBC World News yesterday and Dan Damon made me laugh; he was very indignant about the repeated mentions of seagulls. “They steal your chips!”
