  • Cetacean Opps - Cracking the Sperm Whale Alphabet
    Aug 29 2024
    Complex compositions made up of groans, moans, sighs, roars, and high-pitched squeals that can last for hours - The songs of whales are both beautiful and haunting. Humans have had a particular fascination with the sounds of cetaceans and the possible meanings behind it since Roger Payne, a marine biologist, first noticed the complex sonic arrangement of humpback whale sounds during a research expedition to Bermuda in 1967 But what if we could translate what they were saying? Really understand what the different clicks and codas actually mean? On this episode we're going to chat with the Cetacean Translation Initiative, also known as CETI, who is revolutionizing the latest advancements in cetacean research and discuss the potential implications of breaking the language barrier between humans and whales. Guests: - Geovanni Petri - Professor of network science at the Network Science Institute of Northeastern University and principal of research at project CETI - Shane Garrow - A scientist in residence at Ottawa's Carlton University and the biology lead for project CETI
