Peter Beamish
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Peter Beamish runs a hotel and an adventure tour company and claims to research animal communication in Trinity Bay, Newfoundland. His focus is on the humpback whale and its capacity for what Beamish calls rhythm-based communication, a concept originally proposed by Soviet researchers in the 1970s and 1980s.
Beamish's work has attracted support and attention from other researchers in this area, e.g. John Lilly, and some intellectuals and political figures such as Pierre Elliott Trudeau. Some dispute the scientific nature of the work.

Beamish has published:
- Dancing With Whales - anecdotal and experimental evidence of communication
- Rhythm-based communication - a short paper on the mathematics of signals
