Dolphin Communication Research

OUR MISSION
Our mission is to significantly expand
communication between dolphins and humans.
We are working towards this goal by using cutting-edge technology to:
Develop new systems to explore cetacean cognition and acoustic abilities, and create a language interface.
Record cetacean sounds both above and below water in the broadest spectrum ever achieved.
Analyze these cetacean sounds for harmonic patterns and communication value.
Use these analyzed sounds to play specific musical phrases and tones underwater -- back to the cetaceans -- while recording their contemporaneous responses.
Publish and share this research in scientific journals.
Assist in establishing new standards in the scientific grade recording and processing of marine mammal acoustics.
Play cooperative games with cetaceans in order to expand our understanding of interspecies alliances and non-verbal communication.
Produce and distribute music created in partnership with these cetacean recordings for integration into human consciousness.
Utilize dolphins to inspire humanity towards greater stewardship of our oceans.
