Dear Nature Recordists,

Just some thoughts for you folks.  I am just tossing this out to the
list as a possible idea provoker and perhaps a sonic challenge to inventors=
:
.
I am generating and amassing a vast archive of microbe videos from
explorations of protozoa/metazoa/bacteria/ and other microorganisms that
inhabit my rain barrel wilderness. My ongoing question is: What are the
soundtracks for my videos? Nobody seems to have invented microphones
with the capability of capturing the sound of, for example;  Rotifer
cilia whirling, or collisions of Paramecia with Euglenoids, or the
thrashings of a Nematode.
.
Nature recordists work in too narrow of a slice of the sonic spectrum.
How about some innovations/inventions that expand the range into the
realm of microbes, or, that translate microbial motions into the human
range of hearing?
