The live streams are made possible in large part through collaboration with the pioneering live streaming project Locus Sonus at the Hautes Ecoles d'Art of Aix en Provence and Bourges, with the development of the '''LocustreamBox Raspberry Pi''' and of '''LocusCast for mobile audio streaming'''.{br}{br}Stave Hill is a beautiful wildlife haven on the Rotherhithe Peninsula. There is free access for the public to the patchwork of meadows, ponds, streams, woodland habitats. Stave Hill Ecological Park is managed by TCV Urban Ecology as a nature reserve, educational facility, research area and place of recreation. The Park has been designed and managed to form a mosaic of grassland, woodland, scrub and wetland habitats which support a wide variety of wildlife. Visitors can enter from Russia Dock Woodland or from entrances around Stave Hill. The Park is open to the public at all times and has a full time warden. — http://community.tcv.org.uk/course/view.php?id=52{br}{br}{br}{br}'''Programme :'''{br}[Download pdf|http://locusonus.org/documentation/img/PROJETSEXTERNES/smith/soundCamp_flyer_APR2014.pdf]{br}{br}{br}{br}{br}{br}---- '''REVEIL 24 HOUR BROADCAST''' ''by Grant Smith''{br}{br}REVEIL relays the sounds of live open microphones provided by streamers around the world.{br}Starting on the morning of Saturday 3 MAY just before daybreak, London time (UTC +0+1), the reveil broadcast tracks the sunrise West, from microphone to microphone, following the wave of sound that loops the earth every 24 hours.{br}Sounds are provided by the Locus Sonus network and elsewhere, together with a collection of live audio sources assembled for this broadcast.{br}REVEIL is different from the vast majority of radio available online in that it is not primarily dedicated to music or talk, and none of it is pre recorded.

!! STREAMING GUIDELINES
We invite and welcome your live audio streams for this event and beyond, as part of an evolving network of open microphones, set to create a live archive of terrestrial soundscapes as yet unheard.{br}The URL of the REVEIL stream is available for any broadcaster to take, whether for an extended re-broadcast or one or more dips into the streams.{br}We also invite broadcasters to contribute your own sounds of dawn by putting your microphone out the window at sunrise.{br}And we would be very happy if you would tell your listeners about this event and invite them to provide their own sound streams.{br}For details, please contact Maria Papadomanolaki:

!! FIRST: OPEN A LOCUSTREAM ACCOUNT


Before streaming, you must create an account for each microphone dedicated to the Locustream project. Each new account and registration is moderated by Locus Sonus.{br}{br}

{br}{br}
You need to put in the settings for your Locus Sonus account so the stream is recognized by the Locus Sonus server and appears on the Locustream Soundmap. {br}{br}

!! STREAMING THE NEW LOCUSTREAMBOX RASPBERRY PI
----
{br}{br}

!!presentation :
With a Raspberry Pi mini computer (eg £27.86 from [here|http://uk.farnell.com/raspberry-pi]), you can stream in mono or stereo, over ethernet or wifi. Setup takes a matter of minutes using our pre-configured SD Card. The system is designed for long-term trouble-free operation. Your stream will appear on the Locus Sonus Audio Soundmap ( http://locusonus.org/soundmap/ ) and will be included in the '''REVEIL''' broadcast.
{br}{br}
What to do:{br}
'''[Go to this page for Locustream PiBox SD card download and instructions|Pibox]'''
- Contact Grant Smith or Locus Sonus to express an interest in setting up a stream:

After '''[downloading locustream app|http://locusonus.org/downloads/]''' navigate to your downloads folder and click the '''locuscast.apk''' to install. Be sure that 'Unknown sources' is enabled in security settings.
Once the app is installed you simply need to enter your '''[locus soundmap identity and password|http://locusonus.org/soundmap/admin/login/]''', enable location functions (GPS) and you can start streaming.
{br}{br}
You will obtain better results by using an external microphone. We have tested the '''iRig microphone pre-amp''' which provides phantom power via a 9v battery and enables the connection of any type of mike with an XLR connector.
