Bats produce sounds that are not audible to human ears. First these ultrasounds were digitally reduced to frequencies that are audible. Then the different batsounds were assigned different keys on a keyboard. On this keyboard - the only real Bat-Organ - Ulrich Seidel played the Batman Theme (Neal Hefti, 1966). The video clip was compiled by Sándor Seuntjens using footage from Batman (film, 1966), Batman (animated television series, 1992-95), and National Geographic (natgeowild.com). Music arrangement: Ulrich Seidel, Erfurt, Germany. Video compilation: Sándor Seuntjens, Brussels, Belgium. Idea: Wolter Seuntjens, Erfurt, Germany Thanks: Inken Karst and Interessengemeinschaft Fledermausschutz und forschung Thüringen e.V. |
