Description:

Interspecies empowers artists to re-invent the human relationship with animals, with the goal of healing our own species' emotional, spiritual, and cultural ties with nature. Our best known work brings musicians from around the world together with wild whales and dolphins, to explore the potential for interspecies communication. We are not 501c3, and do not seek donations. Here's a more detailed page about what we do. Interspecies Communication existed as a functioning US 501(c)(3) nonprofit for thirty five years. It was founded and directed by Jim Nollman with the support of foundations, individuals, and governmental organizations. In 2013 the board of directors decided that the nonprofit status and the organizational framework was no longer relevent, since all the principals were eyeing retirement. This website now serves as a legacy of Nollman's work as an artist for nature. Let's start by listening to this truly great song you won't hear anywhere else.

A third category is imagery by many different artists which has appeared in 30 years of the Interspecies newsletter.
