Sonics

Developed by Atlantic Public Media in Woods Hole, Massachusetts, “Sonic IDs” and “Science Minutes” are short, sound-rich portraits and stories aired throughout the broadcast day on WCAI, the Cape and Islands NPR station. Sonics put voices from the listening community on the airwaves and provide station identification. Have a listen.
