There is a record album consisting of the songs of the humpback whale recorded on the spotunderwater without any Disneyesque touches to mar it anywhere. It is a moot question whetherthese songs are cetacean works of art or partly conversations and only partly works ofart—but I think it must be impossible to listen to them without experiencing some kind ofthrill.
