'Sounds of Australia' nominations

You think the combustion engine would be a winner but no it is the pedestrian button, also know as the beg button.

The beg button is 'an icon of Australian design' that makes distinctive sounds to signal to pedestrians that is o.k. to quickly interrupt the supply chain of combustion engine vehicles.

Sounds to be protected: 20 years of Freesound

"To celebrate its 20th anniversary, the CCCB presents Sounds to Be Protected — a sound installation curated by the Freesound team and artist Fito Conesa. The work reflects on the fragility of sound and its role as intangible heritage, inviting visitors to listen deeply and consider how our everyday soundscapes might one day disappear.

Conservation agreement landholders trained to use wildlife cameras and audio recorders as part of a NSW Biodiversity Conservation Trust pilot project.

"Across eight regions in NSW, more than 1.4 million camera images and 15,000 hours of audio recordings were logged throughout the 12-month pilot, which began in August 2024."

"We got so many threatened species, including the sooty owl, the powerful owl, heaps of different microbats, including threatened microbat species...See[ing] what the species are doing over seasons and time will be really useful."

"The second stage of the project began in March this year and will wrap up in March 2026."
