Sirius Delphinus
from YouTube :: Videos by TheOceaniaProject July 04, 2008
A very interesting mythological story about whales and dolphins concerns a tribe in west Africa called the Dogon of Mali. The Dogon, whose culture is alive and well today, at one time lived on the southern coast of the Mediterranean. They have many religious and creation beliefs which very much involve the whales and dolphins. They have perpetuated these beliefs in their religious ceremonies and in the form of sand drawings. In their basket weavings they had 50.8 divisions, the reason for which is that they had quite specific knowledge of the Sirius star system which is a binary star system. They understood how Sirius B, the white dwarf, moved around the main bright star Sirius A. They used sand drawings to illustrate the orbital paths of the stars. The white dwarf Sirius B takes 50.8 years to complete an orbit of Sirius A. The Dogon knew this. In the 1950's a British astronomer named Robert Temple was traveling on a plane across the Atlantic. Sitting beside him was Arthur C. Clark. Robert Temple began to tell Arthur C. Clark about the new knowledge of the Sirius star system provided by the advancing technology of radio astronomy. Sirius B, the white dwarf, is not visible using a telescope whereas radio astronomy allows one to hear Sirius B. Arthur C. Clark simply said to Temple, "You would be interested in the Dogon." Richard Temple began research on the Dogon and discovered how much knowledge the Dogon had of the Sirius Star System. He then went on to spend seven years of his life with the Dogon and wrote a book called 'The Sirius Mystery'. When Temple went to meet the Dogon he asked, "How did you get this knowledge?" The Dogon's answer was very simple. They said, "These creatures came from the star Sirius landed in the ocean and were in the form of amphibians, whales and dolphins. They gave us the knowledge about the Sirius star system." Then Temple asked, "What else did they tell you?" The Dogon replied, "They told us the story of life on Earth." And their story of life on Earth was as follows: There are three energies on the Planet Earth, Nomo, Onomo and Ogo the unfinished species. Nomo the small whales or dolphins would be the messengers, announcing the time of the sacrifice. Onomo, the great whales, the masters of the water, would be sacrificed for the purification and the re-organisation of the planet, allowing completion. That was their story. Only Sirius A is visible to the human eye. It is in fact the brightest star in the sky. Sirius B is known to us only through listening carefully with a radio telescope. We listen for stars! The galaxy, the universe & Canis Major is to imagine why! And as humans our imagination is infinite! So let us imagine further. Even as scientists we do have an infinite imagination. Do we not? We are limited only by our desire to imagine further! We kindly thank Mr. R.

Hominis universus oceanus
from YouTube :: Videos by TheOceaniaProject June 22, 2008
This is the first section of Migaloo the White Whale's Songline from 1998 in High Quality. Yesterday we sighted 16 pods passing about a nautical mile from Cape Byron. They were breaching occasionally, very probably to get a better view of the lighthouse. Cape Byron is a very important landmark for the whales on their migration north, being the most easterly point on the continent. This is the fourth in the Songline Series, here is the first: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IF9StwXcjQE The song is clearly audible through the hull of the research vessel. Depending on the proximity of the singer, the song is also audible standing on the deck. The sound pressure level of their song is reduced significantly once it passes into the air. Whales speak to each other constantly. The cadence and syncopation of their normal conversations are much different from that of their songs. They often make sounds above water through their blow holes. Because water is denser than air it is a much better conduit for sound. If a singer is close you can here him in much the same way standing on the deck as our recordings sound at 50% volume on YouTube. Of course the moment you enter the water, which we don't because it is illegal and unnecessary, the sound is felt at it's full sound pressure level, the equivalent of a jack hammer or loud rock concert. We are working on several papers related to whale 'language'. The term 'language' in relation to Humpback Whales is not yet accepted by the scientific community so we are careful about using it. Although we firmly believe that whales of all species have highly evolved languages. Three researchers in Hawaii, two computer engineers and a marine biologist, have created a computer application to asses the entropy of whale sounds (loss of energy from a system in this case sound frequency) and have compared them to a range of human languages. They have concluded that Humpback sounds are equivalent to human languages. They used the recordings of Dr. Roger and Katy Payne, made in the 1970s, who were the first scientists to recognize that the unique sounds made by Humpback Whales were in fact conscious, complex evolving songs. Hominis universus oceanus - Human as one with the Ocean The population of this group of whales which we study, the Antarctic Area V whales, was estimated to be between 45,000 and 60,000 before whaling commenced. When whaling ceased in Australia because of the lack of whales, there were an estimated 150 individuals remaining. We published a collaborative paper on the Antarctic Area V population in 2005. Using Photo-Identification 'mark re-capture' techniques we estimated the recovering population to be approximately 7,000. The population could now be around 10,000.

Migaloo the White Whale Speaks
from YouTube :: Videos by TheOceaniaProject June 17, 2008
We present to you the voice of Migaloo, the White Whale. We thought it appropriate that Migaloo be granted the opportunity to speak before the meeting of the International Whaling Commission, beginning this week, Monday June 23. http://www.iwcoffice.org/meetings/meeting2008.htm As speakers are allowed only a few minutes to present their case, we extracted only the most poignant statements from our 1998 recording of Migaloo's two hour discourse. 'Migaloo' means 'White Fella'. He was named by Australian Aboriginal Elders. The images are highlights from close extended pod encounters between 1998 and 2007. For images of Migaloo, please view the encounter as narrated by our intern Dave Williams: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0vEj9gYZChw ''One of the great thrills of my life was hearing and feeling Migaloo's voice pass through my body as he swam past The Oceania Project's research vessel on October 2, 1998.'' ~Dave Williams The sound pressure level of the whale's song is equivalent to that of a jet engine. It is speculated that the whale's song if unimpeded by land-masses could circulate the globe and return to its source. Divers in close range of a singer have told us that their whole bodies vibrate with the frequencies. The population of this group of whales which we study, the Antarctic Area V whales, was estimated to be between 45,000 and 60,000 before whaling commenced. When whaling ceased in Australia because of the lack of whales, there were an estimated 150 individuals remaining. We published a collaborative paper on the Antarctic Area V population in 2005.
