A series of radio programs By Dani Gal and Achim Lengerer. Originally commissioned by Documenta 14.

The radio is an acousmatic instrument. Listeners do not see the origin of the sound,
their experience is shaped both by the their own interpretation, and the manipulation
of the producer in a political system.

Our programs work on the space between documentary and Musique concrète.
Each show focuses on political events that are connected to acoustic events. This
creates an acousmatic documentary where the programs become sound-objects.
The programs response to the 'image saturated society' discourse, by asking what is
the function of sound as a document in times of live video feeds that can be broadcast
by anyone.

Dani Gal (born 1975, Jerusalem) lives and works in Berlin. He studied at the Bezalel
Academy for Art and Design in Jerusalem; the Staatliche Hochschule für Bildende
Künste Städelschule in Frankfurt; and the Cooper Union in New York. His flms and
works have been shown widely, including: Documenta 14, 54th Venice Biennale
(2011), The Istanbul Biennale (2011), The New Museum New York (2012),
Kunsthalle St. Gallen Swizerland (2013), The Jewish museum New York (2014),
Berlinale Forum Expanded (2014), Kunsthaus Zurich (2015) Kunsthalle Wien (2015)
And more.

Achim Lengerer works on political questions of speech and language that he
thematizes in performances, radio plays or spatializes within installations and
publications. Lengerer founded different collaborative projects such as freitagsküche
in Frankfurt a. M. and voiceoverhead, with Dani Gal. Since 2009 Lengerer runs the
Berlin based showroom and publishing house Scriptings. Different Artists are invited
– all of which are working with the formats of script and text within their processes of
production. Lengerer is currently working on his Ph.D. at Goldsmiths, University of
London, UK, on the format of the rehearsal as an actual format for socio-political
negotiations.

For the last five years I have taken a sample from every video I watch on my laptop. As a tip of the hat to William Burroughs and Robert Anton Wilson I take the sample from the 23rd minute. Each sample is arranged and layered chronologically, constructing an aleatory narrative, a random DJ mix of dialogue, music and foley, a self portrait of viewing habits and memory. VHS rips merge with Blu Ray restorations, youtube binges mingle with abandoned box sets.

Barry Burns is not the bloke out of Mogwai, its a different, unsuccessful one. He is the co-manager of Radiophrenia and has used his immense power to give himself the highly coveted 5am slot.

We are interested in creating new electromagnetic infrastructures and proposing narratives or experiences that can be lived in these ephemeral sonic spaces. Our performances utilize an array of electronic and analog instruments, as well as devices designed and fabricated by hand.The tracks on this page were originally produced for our installation and live performance at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago in March 2016. Using variations in speed, long durations, patience, and repetition, we built up musical and auditory foundations through tracks and technologies, slowly filling the museum with various soundscapes. While broadcasting across analog radio signals (via Radius) and digital transmissions (via NUMBERS.FM), we physically moved through the museum after setting up two stages on two floors to perform from.

Jeff Kolar (b. Chicago, US) is a independent sound artist, radio producer, and curator. He is the Founder and Artistic Director of Radius, an experimental radio broadcast platform established in 2010. His work, described as "speaker-shredding" (Half Letter Press), "wonderfully strange" (John Corbett), and "characteristically curious" (Marc Weidenbaum), activates sound in unconventional, temporary, and ephemeral ways using appropriation and remix as a critical practice. His solo and collaborative projects, installations, and public performances often investigate the mundane sonic nuances of everyday electronic devices. He has performed and exhibited widely across the United States, and at international venues and festivals such as the New Museum (New York, US), The Kitchen (New York, US), Moogfest (Durham, US), CTM Festival for Adventurous Music (Berlin, DE), Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago (Chicago, US), Kino Šiška (Ljubljana, SL), Le Cube Centre de création numérique (Paris, FR), ORF RadioKulturhaus (Vienna, AT), LAK Festival of Nordic Sound Art (København, Denmark), among others.

A 30-minute soundscape, The Chorus is a reconstruction of a dawn chorus - in which
each of the birds' warbles, squawks and whistles has been replaced with a human's
poor mimicry. Following the precise timings of the original field recording, The
Chorus critiques our understanding of the 'natural' world: some sounds recognizably
belong to a clichéd image of authentic rural life; others emerge as perplexing gurgles
and hums. The apparent simplicity of the proposition reveals surprising complexity;
the radio becomes a platform to expose the limits of the voice, mouth and throat as
they contort to achieve increasingly ambitious substitutions.

Timber & Battery’s playful work considers meaning and meaninglessness through
oblique gestures. The collaborative practice of Rohanne Udall (b. 1990) and Paul
Hughes (b. 1991), it takes place across choreographic, performance and visual arts
contexts. Trained in fine art and philosophy, our practice is a meeting point between
disciplines; a persistent and fidgeting enquiry that continually questions itself and the
contexts it finds itself within.
Our work has recently been included at DISKURS festival in (Giessen, Germany,
October 2017), SET.mefree international film selection (Venice and London,
September 2017), and residencies at Hospitalfield Arts Arbroath and Nottingham
Trent University's Summer Lodge.

4. Katie Revell - Union Square April 16th 2016

A meander into, around, and out of, a Bernie Sanders rally at Union Square in Manhattan. The traffic is choked, the crowd is vocal, the shoppers are bemused, and the Hare Krishnas are carrying on regardless in their usual spot by the subway exit. Scraps of conversation (mundane and historic) rise from the swell of the rally as life continues around it.

Katie Revell is a filmmaker with a growing interest in audio. She believes strongly in the potential of documentary (in the broadest sense) to encourage empathy (also in the broadest sense). She co-produces Farmerama, an award-winning podcast connecting small-scale farmers in the UK and beyond. Currently based in Glasgow, Katie grew up on the east coast of Scotland and has also lived in Germany, India and the USA.

This is the first installment of an ongoing process to create a sound piece for those who are only half listening, born from the phenomenon of utilizing the radio as a 'background' content, perhaps the nature of the medium allows an audience to be at once present and absent, engaging then disengaged, an idle bystander.

I do not wish to imply criticism more use the concept of half listening as a starting point as to how we might imagine and approach the half heard and also engage with and explore in a broader way concepts of the missing and not present.

My name is Matt Harding, I am a composer and artist and have recently completed a sound art MA obtaining a distinction. Most recently I exhibited in Gavin Turk's 'Inside Out' show in the summer 2017. I regularly perform my own score to the silent film 'The Cabinet Of Dr Caligari' at various venues across the UK and London, I performed a re imagined shorter version with live foley at the 'Klingt Gut ' festival in Hamburg this year. I also wrote the Soundtrack to British movie 'High Tide' in 2015 and have released 5 albums on Moshi Moshi and Heavenly Records

From a poetic quote by an erotomaniac mental health patient in 1936 (from the eponymous book), « Bien que mon amour soit fou... » explores this kind of condition towards which love can lead. The composition interrogates the relation between the patient and her illness, through collages symbolizing an exploration of the unconscious that may lead to healing.

Nod Akami is a French composer of electronic and electroacoustic music born in 1979, now living in Lille (Fr). Some pieces by Nod Akami were presented for the first time in 2017 at the Italian festival En Chair et en Son, and on the various artists compilation New Frontiers of Electronic Music on the Unexplained Sounds Group label. Bien que mon amour soit fou... was first presented on 19th august 2017 in Korea at the Yongin Poeun Art Gallery during New Music Day @Sonicscape.

Using Joan La Barbra’s Singing Alphabet from Sesame Street (c 1977) as inspiration I asked 10 vocal artists to contribute a reading or improvised vocal performance based on the letters A,E, I, O, U.

I combined the readings/performances forming a continuous piece. Mixing was done in a single take, keeping the spirit of the reading/performance alive within the boundaries of any extra sound manipulation I added.

I’ve been working with Dictaphones and old tape recorders making slurred sounds for the last 10 years. Using a mixture of careful composition and reckless improvisation I’ve managed to put out over 30 tapes and CDrs and play solo and in wonderful collaborations up and down the UK. I’m a lucky man. More recently I’ve started using abstract vocal sounds and words to create Dada-esque poems.

Stoneypath is a sonic exploration of the day-to-day work of the gardeners at ‘Little Sparta’, who tend/sustain the garden against the incessant encroachment of the moorland. Their fight against nature enacts the definitively human task of tending the ‘yin-and-yang’ of order-and-chaos, domesticity-and-wildness, apollo-and-dionysus, reason-and-madness. This sonic poem represents their struggle by generating a sound world which is forever changing, never comfortably settling into a single version of itself. Despite our best efforts
time is still
ultimately
victorious

‘Stoneypath’ is a father-and-son collaboration between the widely published poet, Andrew McCallum. and the sonic artist Adam McCallum, who is currently studying for a Masters degree in Sound Design at Edinburgh University. Both hail from Biggar, in southern Scotland; a stone’s throw from Ian Hamilton Finlay’s garden, ‘Little Sparta’, to which their collaboration is a response.

A work based on the interwoven memory of childhood insomnia and the radio. I wouldn’t be able to sleep and would tune into long wave radio stations, which would phase in and out of reception, swelling up and fading away in slow pulses of static. This is an attempt to recreate that sensation but in a heightened and more tensile and aggressive manner using repeated and manipulated wave samples. This is the first part of a hopefully wider work using the therapeutic deployment of drone and noise in order to explore a possible future system of audio –sensory inoculation against trauma.

My name is Grant Campbell. I am a musician and sound artist from Edinburgh. I’m also involved in the group Optic Nerve.

A radio-play/sound collage about memories, its carriers, changes, imperfections and also about relationship between sound and image.

"Kino Pamięci" is a 3-channel sound collage merging voices, field recordings, electronic and acoustic sounds. Something between a diary, a chronicle of personal stories more important than official history and a soundscape portrait of Sokołowsko. It'll also touch upon a subject of the significance of sound in film through use of various audio excerpts from movies as a commentary or counterpoint.

Overall, it's drawing on the aesthetics of the earliest field recordings of birds - koch's wax cylinder, arthur allen's ivory billed woodpecker recordings, etc. but it's based on a NZ bird which is "lost" in the present time - which is perhaps extinct.

The sound library of a citizen scientist who's spent a lot of time looking for it (and collected a total of 1:26 of audio over 40 years of searching!) is interspersed with recordings of musical interpretations of historic / archival notations used as scores - some from private letters, some published in ornithology journals - played on violin, piano, harpsichord and clavichord.

Included are other birds dead or alive which would have been / are in its environment - the huia (exitinct, here on paper music box) and the NZ rock wren - endangered (whose call is so high pitched it's almost outside the range of human hearing - here the audible part itself sounds like radio static or electronic noise).

Also some vlf recorded in the mountains, all played back through very unstable microcast transmitters and "flocks" of radios.

Sally Ann McIntyre was born in Hobart, and currently resides in Dunedin. Her creative practice is highly responsive to place, and includes sound art, the creative use of radio, and the the use of field recordings, as well as a concurrent practice in poetry and associated forms of writing.

A major platform for her artistic output since 2006 has been a hand-made narrowcast radio station named radio cegeste, a nomadic performance and recording project which broadcasts within a small radius to any locality on the frequency 104.5FM. Lo-fi, site-specific technological interventions into the soundscapes of various places and ecologies are often conceived as exploratory inter-species collaborations, for which she acts as curator and operator, destabilising the notion of one-to-many broadcast, and associated forms of control and authorship within the medium. Soundscapes recorded on site are layered back into the environment with historic field recordings on 78rpm and other media, problematising the immediacy of listening, and asking questions about its historicisation.

radio cegeste has released material on the labels winds measure, Consumer Waste, and/Oar, Idealstate, Flaming Pines, and Gruenrekorder. Sally’s sound work also includes ongoing research into the materiality of recorded silence, the history of birdsong transcription, and the hauntology of extinction as a trace within sound archives, including the use of pre-electrical sonic inscription and playback mechanisms, such as gramophones, phonographic wax cylinders and music boxes, to bring extinct birdsong back to audibility. Projects have been exhibited in galleries and project spaces in Australia, New Zealand, the UK and the U.S.

Her critical practice spans radio documentary, critical writing, and curatorial and organisational work. She has written for Flash Art International, Art Asia Pacific, and other print media, and since 2009 has been involved as an Australasian curator for the international Radia network, which is a curatorial platform for peer-to-peer experimental radio art, commissioning many new works from sound and radio artists in the region. Her interests include environmental history, post-humanism, the history of museums, ethno-ornithology, island ecologies, avian electomagnetic navigation, obsolete technologies, the poetics of erasure and the trace, the possiblity of locality within the globalised, and the cultural and historical situatedness of listening.

Frail Potentialities is a ‘hypertext monologue’ for radio. The work explores an unlikely and anachronistic relationship between the ideas of Simone Weil - activist, mystic and author living in the early 20th century, and the post-digital distribution of the contemporary subject.
Weil was obsessed with breaking down her own subjectivity. As Chris Kraus puts it Weil was ‘arguing for an alien state, using subjectivity as a means to break out of time and space…’ The post-digital order breaks out of both chronological time and physical space but lays claim to a fragmented, impersonal commons of subjectivity. Through the figure of Weil this work explores the mystical, or sci-fi aspects of our contemporary selves.

Kari Robertson (b. Edinburgh 1988) is a visual artist based in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. She previously studied at GSA before serving for two years on the committee of Transmission Gallery. Kari works primarily in time-based media including sound, analogue film and digital video and animation. Through narrative and storytelling her works often explore sci-fi approaches to subjectivity. Characters act as means to un-think the sovereignty of our bodies, identities, or minds or as a way to access forms of radical empathy – what it might be to empathise beyond identity, similarity or equivalence.

Come to it as someone else” is a soundscape formed from free improvisations and processed field recordings. The piece has a number of relational aspects, with the artists working with raw materials provided by the other. It engages with memory and response, with dialogue and reinterpretation being central to both improvisation and processing of found sound. The work builds on the inherent qualities of acoustic instrumentation and organic sound. This is augmented by processed copies, layering and electronics.

Stephan Barrett and Adam Kinsey's work is primarily built around free improvisation. They are developing a practice which combines acoustic instrumentation, field recordings and modular synthesis. They share an interest in developing soundscapes through a variety of collaborative processes which respond to and reinterpret raw material. Their work together attempts to utilise the sonic qualities of texture and space. The artists met recently through Mopomoso Workshop Group and Skronk which offer an open platform for free improvisation in London.

This piece is part of a radio series where we invite an individual to take us to a place that holds significance to them. We then explore the location together, through desultory conversation, field recording and found sound. In the studio we wove together the recordings along with layers of live improvisation, sound effects and musics in keeping with the atmosphere evoked by original walk and the conversation had.

For this particular show we met Iris Garrelfs, Sound Artist, Improviser and Composer, who took us on a walk around a hidden forest by the banks of the Thames.

Born in 2015 out of a love for the outdoors, Postcards from the Volcano is a series of sporadic live radio shows focusing on the poetics of landscape, nature and space in relation to the human, interweaving conversation and on location pre-recordings with spoken word pieces, sound art, sonic experiments, sound collage, classical, contemporary, folk and many other forms of music.

Postcards from the Volcano also perform live utilising text and alternative scores, featuring spoken, taped and manipulated voice, found objects, object resonance and other sonic eccentricities.

'Selected Radio Works' compiles three recordings that engage with different notions of radio. 'Mute Frequencies' and '60Hz Studio Ambience' combine to explore the characteristics of radio as an electromagnetic phenomenon, whilst 'Souvenir' is a composition about memory, texture and documentation. Constructed from sampled charity shop LPs, VLF recordings and AM radio sweeps, the work explores parallel notions of one’s creative practice and the necessity to document the results of that practice. The tracks are sequenced in a linear fashion so as to suggest movement from the corporeal world of voice and texture (engineered radio) into the liminal spaces of electromagnetic waves, whistlers and sferics (natural radio).

Ilia Rogatchevski is a Russia-born multimedia artist, journalist and broadcaster living and working in London. Taking cues from insurrectionist modernist movements like Fluxus, Dada and the Situationist International his prolific output varies from painting and collage to installation and radio work. Appropriation and subversion play key roles in his practice, where phrases, sounds or images are culled from popular sources, détourned and then disseminated back into the public sphere. The refracted transformation of the original message encourages the audience to construct new meanings from these uncanny narratives.

This composition was produced in Radio Picnic residency between 20-25 january 2016 in Bruxelles. The purpose of the composition is to create from voice without sound effects several tracks which are presented in a radio show from a fictional country or another dimension. The voice of the speaker introduce all the song using Grammelot language, the choice of Black Lodge is a reference to David Lynch's Twin Peaks and I wish to present the soundtrack as coming from unconscious dimension, like a dreamlike voice.

My approach of arts follows an anthropological point of view on human activities. I like to consider art as phenomena of expression which most of the time deal between environnement, social rules and individual desire. My work could be resume with the following statement: My favorite definition of art is from Marshall Macluhan: the criminal, like the artist is a social explorer.

101.2 FM, Ghostscape is my recent work in the form of 60min. pseudo-radio mix, reproduced from home recordings that I made 17 years ago, in 2000. It is dedicated to the alternative radio station based in Minsk, which I used to listen as a teenager. Using Sony Walkman tapeplayer (identical to the one I was dreaming to have 17 years ago), I re-recorded two last programs of “Radio Style” from old tapes (which were found accidentally at parents’ home) and made a retrospective intro and a kind of invasion into the existing material from the past. The past which seems to be much more about the future than the present.

I am Anton Sarokin - a multimedia and digital artist with the background in DIY music. I live and work in Minsk, Belarus. In my artistic practice, I focus on issues such as individual and collective memory, political dimension of sound and silence, relationship between music and social sphere, and nonlinear perception of time.

The first meeting of the East German Round Table where members of East German
citizen movements met with government representatives to discuss the future of the
German Democratic Republic. With Elske Rosenfeld.

A series of radio programs By Dani Gal and Achim Lengerer. Originally commissioned by Documenta 14.

The radio is an acousmatic instrument. Listeners do not see the origin of the sound,
their experience is shaped both by the their own interpretation, and the manipulation
of the producer in a political system.

Our programs work on the space between documentary and Musique concrète.
Each show focuses on political events that are connected to acoustic events. This
creates an acousmatic documentary where the programs become sound-objects.
The programs response to the 'image saturated society' discourse, by asking what is
the function of sound as a document in times of live video feeds that can be broadcast
by anyone.

Dani Gal (born 1975, Jerusalem) lives and works in Berlin. He studied at the Bezalel
Academy for Art and Design in Jerusalem; the Staatliche Hochschule für Bildende
Künste Städelschule in Frankfurt; and the Cooper Union in New York. His flms and
works have been shown widely, including: Documenta 14, 54th Venice Biennale
(2011), The Istanbul Biennale (2011), The New Museum New York (2012),
Kunsthalle St. Gallen Swizerland (2013), The Jewish museum New York (2014),
Berlinale Forum Expanded (2014), Kunsthaus Zurich (2015) Kunsthalle Wien (2015)
And more.

Achim Lengerer works on political questions of speech and language that he
thematizes in performances, radio plays or spatializes within installations and
publications. Lengerer founded different collaborative projects such as freitagsküche
in Frankfurt a. M. and voiceoverhead, with Dani Gal. Since 2009 Lengerer runs the
Berlin based showroom and publishing house Scriptings. Different Artists are invited
– all of which are working with the formats of script and text within their processes of
production. Lengerer is currently working on his Ph.D. at Goldsmiths, University of
London, UK, on the format of the rehearsal as an actual format for socio-political
negotiations.

It's been 20 years exactly since I created 'Recorded Delivery', which quietly collected sounds of the inner realm of the Post Office in March 1995. Back then I could only use cassettes to capture sound, and there was no internet or digital in my world. Two decades later the technical options are staggering, but simplicity and calm is more in demand than ever before.

Foundsoundscape was inspired by the very first Digital Radio station in the UK, that simply played a recording of a rural location. Radio you could just leave running to add a peaceful ambience to your environment indoors. It heralded a new media paradigm, as digital broadcasting offered more capacity than requred for the first time, and that space needed filling. At the same time on TV, Channel 4 was broadcasting Big Brother live 24hours, and at night I loved to tune-in my analogue TV sets all over the house, and the shed, so I could hear the housemates gently sleeping as I worked through the night. Since then infomercials, and gambling TV have taken over, and I greatly miss that sense of real-time space, that does not demand your attention. Foundsoundscape quietly underscores your environment, by creating new ones from others.

Radio is special as it was the first medium that could be experienced by many people in many places, all at the same time. Foundsoundscape.com is an online radio station that streams live 24hours a day, which can now be broadcast to people all over the globe. Using over 1000 calm & curious location recordings captured by 100+ recordists, the sounds were simply edited, and then played back three at a time at various volumes in shuffle mode, and the result is never the same twice. You often hear the edges of time as files begin or stop playing mid flow. If you listen ever so carefully you can also hear me working in the studio at the end of the garden late at night, as I have a live mic feeding into the mix. I sometimes like to work with tv radio & music playing, to absorb information, give me ideas, create and share. Email me for a shout-out!

My hope is that others will find foundsoundscape enjoyable and leave it running all day & all night long, just like a radio! It's as simple as that, with one click. A salute to serendipity and shared sonic space. Bookmark it. Play it in rooms around the house. Share it . . Take a break . . .
Every day is different.
Happy Daze.

4. Garrett Tiedemann - Status Update

Caly McMorrow is an interactive art and sound artist based in St. Paul Minnesota. Immediately after the 2016 presidential election she participated in social media catharsis by covering a well referenced Leonard Cohen song and sharing it for those who it may benefit. In this episode, she talks about the post and her continued efforts to unify and connect people together through the complications of life and art. Photos of her interactive installation Status Update can be found on her site and music in this episode is by her from the album All of This is Temporary.

Garrett Tiedemann is a radio producer, journalist, filmmaker and composer.

Additionally, he manages production and strategy for the oral history/storytelling project SisterStory.

5. Andrew Reddy- In Resonance

The track uses data generated by NMR-spectroscopy, a technique which studies the structure of matter by examining the resonant frequencies of nuclei. A sample is placed in a magnetic field and the nuclei are excited with radio waves which causes them to resonate at a frequency unique to each atom. Hydrogen and carbon resonances from a range of different molecules were used on the track. Each sound is a collection of resonances comprising of every nuclei in the molecule resonating simultaneously which forms a distinct sonic fingerprint, a unique choir of the individual voices of every nucleus resonating in harmony.

Andrew Reddy is a composer and sound artist from Kildare, Ireland. Professionally, he works as a research chemist and educator and has a passion for fusing scientific concepts with his art in creating ambient soundscapes, unnerving atmospheres and repugnant noise.

A collaborative audio work by James Greer and Sam Mackay. Unfolding as a correspondence between two post-human reporters, it weaves together reportage, historical research, field recordings and semi-concrete music to offer a ludic re-narrating of the late modern city. Maritime border zones. East Asian suburbia. Mediterranean port life. Interspecies ambitions. 8-bit soundtracks heard through the prisms of hirajoshi and insen scales. Magical itinerance. Aural pathways through the anthropocene.

Devised and produced by James Greer and Sam Mackay. Violin: Max Baillie. Additional voices: Nwando Ebizie, Yung Yee Chen. Incorporating additional music by Jean Claude Risset and King Oliver’s Creole Jazz Band.

James Greer is a field recordist, composer and writer, originally from Scotland but now based in Tokyo. His recent work includes the podcast series TokyoのDensha and is featured on Nick Luscombe’s Japan Sound Portrait 1.1 (Bleep, 2016).
Sam Mackay is a writer and researcher based in London. He co-founded London Contemporary Music Festival in 2013. His PhD examines the interface of musical culture and urban change in contemporary Marseille.

Poludnica is a version of a sound installation that will be performed in Front Room Art Salon Gallery in Alloa, Whitespace gallery in Edinburgh and Veneer Gallery in Glasgow in Autumn 2017. It is part soundscape and part drone music performance that illustrates an attack by a mythical summer demon from Slavic folklore.

Lisa and Rose have a shared interest in making visible process activities. Also in the intangible connections, hidden layers, and emergent materials of the compositional process. This, as yet untitled, work exists as a series of movable parts; all of which form the most expanded conception of its material and immaterial elements but not all of which need to surface in any given iteration of the work. These include - scored elements both notated and instructional, objects, songs by other artists, online video, a decibel meter, conversations between collaborators.

Iteration 1 for Radiophrenia, 2017.

Series of six semi-improvised studies for cello, amplified mangle, and voice, in linear sequence with processed youtube audio ARCHIVE_ 10 Years Ago Today Britney Shaves Heads And Gets Tattooed! by X17Online Video [For all the latest Celebrity Gossip, Entertainment News and the best Paparazzi Photos and Video]. Pitch material for cello generated by application of various filtering exercises to Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds Hallelujah. Objects in performance of mangle include chalk, sugar, USB drives, tampons. Other performance instructions, for both instruments, derived from Fleetway Foldaway Wringer instructions for use. Conversations during the making process reflected on intangible experiences of everyday anxiety, fear and despair, and by contrast the ways we have to represent or articulate them; Britney's instagram account; ASMR, slime and hydraulic press videos on youtube; does Lisa's dad have any tools that we can crush things with; Rihanna 'Diamonds'; an interview with Robert Wyatt that Rose heard (Late Junction?); Anne Griffiths Codiaeum Variegatum; recent/various reading on vulnerability, sadness, sickness and hysteria in relation to empowerment and resistance; whether to record our voices.

Lisa Busby is a Scottish artist, composer, and vocalist working in London, in long duration forms, performance video, text based score, installation and site specific performance. She is interested in exploring the fringes of song; the appropriation of everyday objects and scenarios with a particular focus on using domestic playback media and objects as instruments; and how pop culture artefacts can be set in new and unusual contexts. She's worked with venues including Blackwood Gallery Toronto, IAC Malmö, Tate, Wysing Arts, and Cafe Oto; curators Electra, Primary and Saisonscape; labels Adaadat and The Lumen Lake; and with collaborators Rutger Hauser, The Nomadic Female DJ Troupe, and Gabriel Bohm Calles.

Rose Dagul is an artist, composer and cellist living in London. She is the co-founder and coordinator of The Surround, a DIY platform for performance and music, and is a co-conductor of the Peckham Chamber Orchestra. Other projects include Rhosyn, Holy Island Sketchbook, Rutger Hauser and Alien Wind.

Conceptually two shorter philosophically inclined works, questioning whether syntheses of different worldviews are truly possible, such as Wittgensteinian Quietism and Utilitarianism, Heideggerian views on technology and traditional linear Progressive ones, or dualistic religions and monist ones.

Rose Knapp is a poet and producer. She has EPs & LPs released on D.M.T. Records, Hylé Tapes, Always Human Tapes, Far East Sound, and others. She currently lives in Los Angeles.

2. The Doll - Triple G v3 - Funnel and Pipe French Horn

The Doll has been making hideous solo sounds since 2005. Her no-fi aesthetic is a hit with toddlers. The Doll also has a sideline in field recording, diapercore & household appliances.
She has recently been playing in Seattle noise improv bands TBA & PUNTERS and Auckland bands Septithe & Unknown Tofu. Her US/Aotearoa collective project, Contact Mike, has over 40 band members aged 14 months and up.

"The Doll can be constituted by mixing 3 parts experiment, 4 parts noise, 1 part ritual, and 2 parts theatre, with a pinch of space dust." - Alt Music

3. Vincent Eoppolo - America First

I view my works as a synthesis of various sound art traditions including musique concrete, acousmatic music and radio art.

In my work I strive to present brief moments of the world we are living in. Society in the continuing process of realizing itself. Our relationship with each other, with technology, our morality, spirituality, sexuality, our anxieties and fears. In many ways my works are like sociological and psychological commentaries. My work has been featured on Bernard Clarke's program Nova on RTE's Lyric FM, Phaune Radio from Montpellier, France as well as Radio Art International on CHOQ Radio in Montreal. My works were recently presented at the 2017 New York City Electro-Acoustic Music Festival.

5. Mark Vernon - To Roar or to Whisper

Composed from a recording of a rune reading in Penzance, wind chimes and field recordings also made in Penzance but on an earlier visit. As asceptic I have an ambivalent relationship with fortune telling so for this reading I tried my best to keep an open mind.

Mark Vernon is a Glasgow-based artist whose work exists on the fringes of sound art, music and broadcasting. At the core of his practice lies a fascination with the intimacy of the radio voice, environmental sound, obsolete media and the reappropriation of found recordings. A keen advocate of radio as an art form, he co-runs Glasgow art radio station, Radiophrenia and has produced programmes for stations internationally.

7. Osvaldo Cibils - soundart10september2017

Soundart piece with vinyl disc with problems, three Korg Monotron and osvaldo cibils in el arte de las perillas.

osvaldo cibils. 1961. Artist born in Montevideo, Uruguay. He lives in Trento, Italia. His artworks are oriented to drawing, soundart, videoart and the development of experimental ideas mainly.

During the realization of my artworks I limit myself to a few movements, repeated, with little variations: the hands neutralizing the materials, the eye straight in the action, the breathing contained and brief, the head rigid and the thoughts compressed based on my artistic logic.

8. Sarah Boothroyd - What a Lovely Way to Burn

She looks at him. He looks at her. Their eyes lock and sparks fly. They fan the flame - a coy smile here, a flirtatious gesture there - and soon there is a burning desire between them. But all the while, lurking in the background, is fear. Fear of rejection. Fear of betrayal. Fear of loss. This short audio work explores the definition of romantic love as "giving someone the power to destroy you, but trusting them not to."

Welcome to the Art & Podcast, a podcast that asks "What do you do?" and "Can that be called Art?". Hosted by artist and performer Ronan Mcmahon, and loyally assisted by
producer Roy Shearer, each episode takes the listener on a conversational tour of a different occupation. We delve into how each guest perceives art and creativity, and to what extent both relate to their day job, all whilst taking a nice walk during their lunch break.

In this episode we ask: can Geology be called an art-form? We took a walk up Arthur's Seat in Edinburgh with geologist Gareth Johnson to find out. Will Geology pass our 'extremely scientific' 7-question Art Test?

Ronan Mcmahon is a stage and radio comedy performer with a passion for the convergence of science and art. He regularly collaborates with Naomi O Kelly as the clowning, storytelling, puppetry, live music and social satire partnership, Two Detectives.

Roy Shearer is a designer and musician, who often consults as a technician to the arts, and occasionally makes his own forays into sound art and interactive installation.

Ten stories for the radio – Five collected stories elaborated into five sound tales

Project by Renato Rinaldi
Production and organisation by Hybrida
Pieces by Slavek Kwi - Eric la casa - Antje Vowinckel - Ward Weis - Giuseppe Ielasi
Funded by Arlef / Agjenzie Regjonâl pe Lenghe Furlane
Aired by Frioulian local Radio Onde Furlane

Language is a sound, before being a meaning, and it’s the first human element in a soundscape. The stories have then been selected according to the ability of the teller in using the language in a dramatic way more than for the stories themselves. For each story we have commissioned a music piece in which the recorded tale had to be the core of the composition. Such tranformation could only be possible in the hands of people who doesn’t have access to the meaning of the words. That is why we have chosen musicians the furthest away possible from Friulian geography, culture and language so as to have them relate with a new, as far as this is possible today, sound context.

The title literally means cow tongue but it refers to a edible plant: Rumex patientia, known as patience dock, "garden patience", "herb patience", or "monk's rhubarb", is a herbaceous perennial plant species of the genus Rumex, belonging to the family Polygonaceae. In spring it is often consumed as a leaf vegetable in Southern Europe.

The Friulian language is a mosaic of units, more often micro-units, territorial, each one with its own linguistic nuances and peculiar sound. The development of such peculiarities is the result of a long and continuous exchange with the environment, which each community entertains while setting its roots in a certain area. Language is a sound, before being a meaning, and it’s the first human element in a soundscape. The project Lenghedivacje endeavours at bringing out the sound of the Friulian language, throughout the collection of recorded material concerning historical or personal events.

The stories have then been selected according to the ability of the teller in using the language in a dramatic way more than for the stories themselves. The events told are of course significant also as testimony but are especially extraordinary for the way in which they are “spoken” because they are unique and unique is the language they are using. Inside these stories there is a rich musical potential but in order to bring it out we have pushed the language over the wall of sense. For each story we have commissioned a music piece in which the recorded tale had to be the core of the composition. Such transformation could only be possible in the hands of people who could appreciate exclusively the sound of the language thus deprived of its dramatic element linked to sense. That is why we have chosen musicians the furthest away possible from Friulian geography, culture and language so as to have them relate with a new, as far as this is possible today, sound context. The composers selected for this task are people who routinely work with the sound of language and who use the radio as a means of expression investigating its communication possibilities. Each one of them was asked to work on a music composition starting exclusively form the recorded material assigned to them. The result is a series of compositions created from the phonemes (sound bits) of the Friulian language though enjoyable also away from its understanding.

Collected tales

1a - Elsa Fazzutti - Interview collected in Forni di sotto (UD)
She talks about the peculiarities of the Friulian language as it is spoken in Forni di Sopra e Forni di Sotto. She also quotes some satirical writings and some improvised stories coming from the inhabitants.

Elaborated into 1b - Inton tions by Slavek Kwi - (Irland)
I extracted every word, phrase and cluster of words which attracted my attention due to its sound qualities, texture and/or intonation. I treated each word as abstract sound-object. These have been fragmented in various ways and repeated, though irregularly - more as cycles. These were further processed as filtering interesting colors etc. sequences created this way I mixed as sound-environments, e.g. using sound organisation in layers observed in rainforest (part 1). The second part is more linear and bare, developed as gestures. The whole composition is focused on diversity through variations.

Renato Rinaldi studied acting, composition and electronic music. He has worked extensively in theater, first as an actor and then as a sound artist. As a musician he has composed music for theatre, radio plays and documentaries, video and sound installations. He is interested in composition applied to the relationship between sound /environment. He has also produced radio plays, documentaries and radio reportages, aired by Radio RAI and Radio France.

Lisa and Rose have a shared interest in making visible process activities. Also in the intangible connections, hidden layers, and emergent materials of the compositional process. This, as yet untitled, work exists as a series of movable parts; all of which form the most expanded conception of its material and immaterial elements but not all of which need to surface in any given iteration of the work. These include - scored elements both notated and instructional, objects, songs by other artists, online video, a decibel meter, conversations between collaborators.

Iteration 1 for RadioPhrenia, 2017.

Series of six semi-improvised studies for cello, amplified mangle, and voice, in linear sequence with processed youtube audio ARCHIVE_ 10 Years Ago Today Britney Shaves Heads And Gets Tattooed! by X17Online Video [For all the latest Celebrity Gossip, Entertainment News and the best Paparazzi Photos and Video]. Pitch material for cello generated by application of various filtering exercises to Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds Hallelujah. Objects in performance of mangle include chalk, sugar, USB drives, tampons. Other performance instructions, for both instruments, derived from Fleetway Foldaway Wringer instructions for use. Conversations during the making process reflected on intangible experiences of everyday anxiety, fear and despair, and by contrast the ways we have to represent or articulate them; Britney's instagram account; ASMR, slime and hydraulic press videos on youtube; does Lisa's dad have any tools that we can crush things with; Rihanna 'Diamonds'; an interview with Robert Wyatt that Rose heard (Late Junction?); Anne Griffiths Codiaeum Variegatum; recent/various reading on vulnerability, sadness, sickness and hysteria in relation to empowerment and resistance; whether to record our voices.

Lisa Busby is a Scottish artist, composer, and vocalist working in London, in long duration forms, performance video, text based score, installation and site specific performance. She is interested in exploring the fringes of song; the appropriation of everyday objects and scenarios with a particular focus on using domestic playback media and objects as instruments; and how pop culture artefacts can be set in new and unusual contexts. She's worked with venues including Blackwood Gallery Toronto, IAC Malmö, Tate, Wysing Arts, and Cafe Oto; curators Electra, Primary and Saisonscape; labels Adaadat and The Lumen Lake; and with collaborators Rutger Hauser, The Nomadic Female DJ Troupe, and Gabriel Bohm Calles.

Asparagus Piss Raindrop - R&R Rat Race at The Witch Hazel School – Phase 3

The Scene: night, skeletal pieces of driftwood, small fragments of friendship washed up on the beach of late capitalist dystopia. A few small creatures are stirring in the phosphorescence and the jellyfish decay. Are they friendly? Are they of this world?
Announcing Phase 3 of R&R Rat Race at The Witch Hazel School, a radio play by Asparagus Piss Raindrop. Wherein:

– All characters are based on real people but their names have not been changed to protect the innocent.
– Accompanying sounds will be created using amplified contracts, canned migration and organic folé.

For this performance Asparagus Piss Raindrop are Neil Davidson, Lucy Duncombe, Liene Rozite, Julia Letitia Scott, Fritz Welch

Asparagus Piss Raindrop are a crypto conceptual science fiction anti climax band dedicated to pushing beyond all reasonable limits what live music performance can be. Asparagus Piss Raindrop is formed from a dreadful, ever-expanding pool of performer / composer / improvisers from the Glasgow (and beyond) experimental music scene. The group‘s work arises from the questions; How can we do things otherwise? What musical forms arise from and inform our daily experience? Performances typically draw on such things as recycled children’s games, group therapy, shapeshifting, declarations of ridiculous texts, geology, architectural intervention, gender theory, site specificity and slug reproduction. APR have been commissioned to produce work by Tectonics Glasgow, Glasgow International, Tectonics Iceland, Transmission Gallery Glasgow, Association CRIC in France and Supernormal Festival in Oxfordshire.

‘NACHRICHTENTSTELLT’ is an electroacoustic radio-collage of news-broadcasts by Marc Matter, originally produced for SWR2.

Newstexts have a very special form - short, concentrated and standardised. For a long time, I have been fascinated by this aim to objectivity, to speak-out the news-data as neutral as possible. I have recorded and collected lots of radio-news (in german language) which have been further processed and mutated with the use of electroacoustic means. Composed into a sound-text, this composition highlights all the standard words, phrases and inflections typical for radio-news, in a playful manner.

Marc Matter (*1974 in Basel, CH) sound-artist and researcher, former member of Institut fuer Feinmotorik. 1998 - 2003 studies at Academy for Media Arts (Cologne) with Valie Export and Siegfried Zielinksi. Assistant-professor for Music & Text at IMM Düsseldorf, curator at salon-des-amateurs. Extensive studies about Sound Poetry, especially about the OU review by Henri Chopin and curator for the international festival for text-sound-poetry (ISSUE project room 2015). Composer of several sound-texts for radio, developing a practice of text-sound for recording and performance. Collaborations with several artists, i.e. poet Dagmara Kraus, performance-artist Veridiana Zurita, visual artists Haseeb Ahmed and Tris Vonna-Michell, sound-artist Tom White, and software-developper and artist Robert M Ochshorn.

Circuits±Waves is a 53 minute mix of shortwave radio recordings plus other recordings. The work is location specific (the shortwave was recorded in the UAE), but also outward reaching — shortwave signals travel long distances, bouncing off the ionosphere to defy the curvature of the earth. The work begins with manipulated recordings of albatross mixed with the sounds of satellite telemetry, then moves slowly toward the shortwave spectrum. The sounds are always suggestive, giving a feeling of connection to something on a global/cosmic scale, hinting at the natural world and at our very direct manipulation of and interaction with invisible forces.

Jonny Farrow is a multi-disciplinary artist working across sculpture, hardware hacking, printmaking, and sound art. His work uses sound as both a poetics and a material to research the liminal spaces of cultural memory and suspect histories. Utilizing concepts such as resonance, feedback, and transmission, Farrow sounds these spaces through various material means and aims to set them vibrating.

This composition was produced in Radio Picnic residency between 20-25 january 2016 in Bruxelles. The purpose of the composition is to create from voice without sound effects several tracks which are presented in a radio show from a fictional country or another dimension. The voice of the speaker introduce all the song using Grammelot language, the choice of Black Lodge is a reference to David Lynch's Twin Peaks and I wish to present the soundtrack as coming from unconscious dimension, like a dreamlike voice.

My approach of arts follows an anthropological point of view on human activities. I like to consider art as phenomena of expression which most of the time deal between environnement, social rules and individual desire. My work could be resume with the following statement: My favorite definition of art is from Marshall Macluhan: the criminal, like the artist is a social explorer.

I’ve created a contemporary symphony called Alcohol Fuelled Violence that deals with asperger syndrome, epilepsy, violence in socially deprived areas, NHS surgery, loss and atonement.

The symphony tells the story of what happened to my brother after he was the victim of an alcohol fuelled attack.

I am a producer/artist from Northern England and I create orchestral music using cut-ups, layers and loops of public domain classical pieces.

This episode mashes up the soundtrack of Walerian Borowczyk’s 1975 film The Beast with Arte Radio productions about pregnancy and bathing in Japan, economics documentaries by JK Galbraith, and the Fluxus-style choral work of Tomomi Adachi, Paul Lansky, Dominique Petitgand and Nobukazu Takemura.

During 2013 Momus created a series of radiophonic programmes for Newcastle radio station BasicFM entitled Hearspool. Mesmeric, evocative, and made in the tradition of German neue hoerspiel.

Momus is a Scot who makes songs, books and art. He lives between Europe and Japan.

For the last five years I have taken a sample from every video I watch on my laptop. As a tip of the hat to William Burroughs and Robert Anton Wilson I take the sample from the 23rd minute. Each sample is arranged and layered chronologically, constructing an aleatory narrative, a random DJ mix of dialogue, music and foley, a self portrait of viewing habits and memory. VHS rips merge with Blu Ray restorations, youtube binges mingle with abandoned box sets.

Barry Burns is not the bloke out of Mogwai, its a different, unsuccessful one. He is the co-manager of Radiophrenia and has used his immense power to give himself the highly coveted 5am slot.

"Los Galpones" contains four dark and grimacing industrial-tinged drone pieces. Employing the electric guitar, the violin, springs and other found objects, Courtis creates a soundscape that is at times oppressive and dense. A reflection perhaps on the post-industrial urban landscape of his native Buenos Aires. This album should be played loud.

"Los Galpones" is the latest solo full-length release conjured up by the extremely prolific Buenos Aires-based composer Alan Courtis (aka Anla Courtis). Courtis has straddled the international noise underground and the academic-centered modern composition scenes since the early 1990's. As a solo artist, with the Argentine experimental group Reynols, and in collaborations with Pauline Oliveros, Makoto Kawabata (Acid Mothers Temple), Lasse Marhaug, Aaron Moore (Volcano the Bear), Okkyung Lee, and Daniel Menche among others, Courtis has amassed an impressive discography.

1. Dorota Blaszczak – Augmented Radio Listening - ARL No.2

An audio representation of a space of coexisting radio broadcasts, crowded with numerous radio waves. It is structured in the form of short variations on the sound of concurrent radio transmissions, as though we could perceive all the waves at the same time, with overlaps, distortions, splits, modulations, vibrations and movement. It is based on real sound streams of several Polish radio stations, broadcast on Jun 29, 2017, collected from the beginning of each hour throughout the day and played back simultaneously as a sequence of variations. The piece should be listened to on headphones as it uses binaural processing.

The module for binaural processing and movement was programmed by Glen Fraser.

Bio: Dorota Blaszczak is an audio engineer in Polish Radio Archives in Warsaw and an assistant at the Sound Engineering Department of the University of Music. She teaches Interactive Sound courses, works with sound restoration and preservation, creates interactive projects. She worked as sound designer for VR projects in Canada.

2. Chloe Reid – Untitled

Chloë Reid is a South African artist currently considering her practice through a socio-physiological framework. Positioned between sociology, biology and psychology, this term refers to the relationship between a society and the habitual physical functions of individuals within that society. She uses film, writing and audio to pare down, repeat and create rhythmical descriptions of objects and actions in an attempt to locate a kind of politics in regular intuitive performance.

3. Adam Paroussos - Cosmohonic Fantasia Mvt. III Fractal Reprise

COSMOPHONIC FANTASIA: Mvts I-III (OST)

Cosmophonic Fantasia is predominately a musique concrète film in three movements: I Audio Field, II Bamboo Mustard and III Fractal Reprise. This piece explores the metaphysical and expressive nature of sound and inspired by Sonata form. ‘Audio Field’ uses a collection of montaged film and sound samples and ‘remixes’ them together to turn the everyday experiences of sound into a dream-like sonic experience. Mvt 2,‘Bamboo Mustard’ uses collected fragments of live performances to piece together the journey of this character - Bamboo Mustard. The final movement Fractal Reprise concludes the film, exploring the underlying structures within the natural and sound.

Adam Paroussos is an interdisciplinary sound artist and designer, just graduated from Central Saint Martins, BA Performance Design and Practice. His work is rooted in performative, collaborative and experimental approaches with sound and music. Under his Nova award-nominated alter-ego ‘Bamboo Mustard’, he performs with DIY instruments in a sound costume in the cracks and corners of London. Adam works across theatre, live art and film including composing the soundtrack for Andrea Zimmerman’s ‘Erase and Forget’ documentary and Jotdown’s physical theatre show ‘Haidar’.

5. Hilary Mullaney - Sound Card

I wrote this 'sound card' as a gift for my partner. Sharing these sounds with him was a way for us to connect as we navigated our long distance relationship. It was written only for his ears, until now. What was meant to be a short, quirky Valentine's Day message (without the schmaltz) turned into a detailed work using recordings made in a variety of locations including my home in Dublin city; Bull Island, a nature reserve in Dublin Bay; Plymouth, UK, and plundered sounds and voices, all of which were manipulated and sculpted into this 12 minute composition. This work explores moments together, friends, common places, memories, domesticity, whispers, flutters, hopes. This sound montage has a number of different scenes depicting our memories, not only in a literal sense, but also poetic sonic interpretations of the intangible aspects of falling in love.

Hilary Mullaney (Ph.D, MA, BA Music) is a composer based in Dublin, Ireland. She writes primarily fixed media compositions, and her practice is particularly concerned with how place is expressed in acousmatic music. Her compositions have been broadcast and performed at numerous festivals and events worldwide.

7. B. D. Owens – You Should be so Lucky: a polysemy

you should be so lucky: a polysemy is an experimental voice composition that examines the assertion that the idiom ‘you should be so lucky’ is a polysemy (a word or phrase with multiple coexisting meanings). This work was first exhibited as part of the Tainted Luck installation in the DJCAD Masters Show, 2017.

B. D. Owens is a multi-disciplinary artist based near Helensburgh. He develops his conceptual ideas while walking and writing. Text, layered interpretation and language play are threads that run through his work. Currently, he is examining and challenging the binary doctrines of: Winners & Losers, Losing & Finding and Sameness & Difference. He is graduating with Distinction from the Art, Society & Publics MFA Programme at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art and Design 2017.

8 Onirologia - Waves and Ladders

"Waves and Ladders" started with an EEG of me during sleep. The data was then translated to sound and manipulated to recreate dreams that different family members had recounted to me while I was in Italy.

"Waves and Ladders" is the 10th track off of "O", my debut album. "O" was created with audio/visual materials that reference my immigrant experience, whether that be a home video, brainwaves, or my genome report. Contrafact, clipping, and ambience become metaphors for the desire for home.

Onirologia (b. 1995) is an Italian-American music artist from Sarasota, Florida. Their work fuses traditional Italian music, their musical background (Jazz and Rock), and Electronic in order to explore themes of immigration and queerness. They have exhibited works in Florida, Richmond, and India and have appeared in media outlets such as ART Habens and the Huffington Post.

Syros- a Greek island- music in the squares at night-- I sing an old song into a well at the Jesuit monastery- Katarina takes me to a place she finds “very mystic”- Yiannis tells me how music seeped into him as a child from the sounds and rhythms of the island as he rode on his grandfather’s donkey- the home of Rembetika (Greek Blues) legend Marcos- Leyla holds the spirit of the island inside her during dark days and wonders why Syros pulls her back every year- my singing voice improvises my memories of walking with these three.

RADIO UNBROKEN: Songspiel for Radio Revolten
by Helen Hahmann & Gregory Whitehead

Three radio songs composed from voiced fragments of Radio Revolten
manifestos together with other recordings made in the vicinity of the
festival.

I Lover in Revolt
II The Future of Radio is Dirty
III Radio Unbroken

This particular story covers the time electronic music pioneer Delia Derbyshire spent in Cumbria in the mid-1970s. It's one of those stories that will always remain rather ambiguous, as very little is known about this period in her life, so I have tried to reflect this in parts of the telling, and added my own theatrical interpretations to the piece. It has a foundation of two female oral history testimonies with an original sonic composition, produced to help reflect and re-tell elements of the story.

Jenn Mattinson is a freelance creative facilitator and sound artist based in Keswick, Cumbria. She has delivered a wide range of community initiatives, including oral history projects, community exhibitions and creative workshops for people living with dementia. She has produced a number of radio and sound art pieces, including a series of commissions from Octopus Collective, a sound art and new music organisation based in Barrow-in-Furness. Jenn is passionate about exploring multidisciplinary approaches to storytelling, and this if often reflected in her range of work.

Part of a series of silenced films, for the silence of nostalghia, all dialogue and non-diegetic sound has been redacted from Andrei Tarkovsky’s 1983 film Nostalghia.
The silence that survives pulls the background into focus, concentrating the attention of the ear on the sonic details of an emerging landscape, wet with the revenants of footfall, entrance and exit. The textures of optical-sound silence, reminiscent of the atmospheric leaks and spillages of radio transmission, amplify the spectral and oneiric qualities of a soundscape where apparitions of place and time seem to appear, disappear, dissolve and fragment.

Sebastiane Hegarty is an artist, writer and lecturer. His practice explores the relationship between time, place and sensation, primarily through field-recording and soundscape composition. His work has been exhibited and broadcast across the UK and Europe: It’s Eating You, (IMT Gallery, London, 2015), and Heliocemtra, (Museum Punta della Dogana, Venice, 2016). In 2015 he curated the multidisciplinary conference, Chalk: time, sense landscape. More recently he contributed to the Sound of Memory symposium at Goldsmiths, London (2017). Published through Impulsive Habitat, Gruenrekorder and Very Quiet Records, works for radio include, It’s Just Where I Put My Words, (BBC Radio 3, 2013).

Inspired by some of the constraints that are associated with older digital technology, the idea of this performance is to work with the maximum number of audio files that can fit into the 32M memory space of my well worn but fully functioning 1999 Akai MPC2000XL sampler. At the time of it's release nearly two decades ago, this was a quite high spec piece of kit, but now it's tiny memory is frankly laughable in comparison with the giant digital storage capabilities of contemporary laptops and even mobile phones. 32M is just over 6 minutes of sampling time. But constraints can often be a very useful creative tool, forcing us to make concise decisions and think in an original way to get the most out of the least. For example, many of the early adopters of sampling technology had to find ways to be creative within such limited scope. Beat makers like DJ Premier famously used to speed up the records they wanted to sample to fit the section they wanted to loop into the tiny memory capacity of their samplers and then slow the sample down afterwards to return it to it's original pitch. This resulted in a unique grainy texture that has defined the sound of early hip hop productions.

I have asked a number of exciting contemporary artists and musicians who work with sound recordings to send me just over a minute of diverse sounds from their sonic archives. I haven't given them any brief beyond this suggestion. I have worked in the past with samples - and the idea of collaging and re-contextualising sounds. It's by no means a unique concept, but has endless possibilities. And as a community musician I often work very spontaneously to create improvised music with clients. There is an excitement in creating a framework in community music which is both easy to enter and enabling for the participants, but at the same time full of the possibility of what on earth might happen next. I see these two strands of my work colliding in this idea. Here I can only work with what there is. Anything could come out of the editing, processing and re-arrangement of the sounds, making it more than just the audio sum of it's multi-track parts.

Mobile Radio offer an overview of independent and not-for-profit community, ‘free’, campus, and pirate stations who provide a wealth of material and perspectives outside of the mainstream media orthodoxy. This series constitutes a major retrospective of the work of the radio art network Radia, whose collective mission is to make radio that transcends the borders and boundaries of land and language. Mobile Radio visit each station in turn to discern their motives and inspirations, and explore the work of one of their associated artists. Produced with support from Goethe Institut.

Inspired by the discovery of an abandoned ghost library, Lines of Reason blends atmospheric original music, traditional song sequences and extracts from thinkers including Plato and Aristotle, to convey dream-like notions of reason and unreason, linear and circular time and traditional ideas of Englishness – hinting also at contemporary crises of identity, memory and truth in culture and politics. Originally designed to be played in fugue form for a multi-channel installation, the radio version uses a simple pitch pipe and, primarily, the artist’s own voice, to build a lightly textured, haunting soundscape.

Esi Eshun has recently completed a year-long course in Experimental Sound Art taught by artist Graham Dunning. This recording, presented as part of an installation at New River Studios, London, follows on from a semi-improvised composition performed live at The Hundred Years Gallery in Hoxton.

1. Vincent Eoppolo - Poeme Albert-Birot

I view my works as a synthesis of various sound art traditions including musique concrete, acousmatic music and radio art.

In my work I strive to present brief moments of the world we are living in. Society in the continuing process of realizing itself. Our relationship with each other, with technology, our morality, spirituality, sexuality, our anxieties and fears. In many ways my works are like sociological and psychological commentaries. My work has been featured on Bernard Clarke's program Nova on RTE's Lyric FM, Phaune Radio from Montpellier, France as well as Radio Art International on CHOQ Radio in Montreal. My works were recently presented at the 2017 New York City Electro-Acoustic Music Festival.

2. Rachel Cattle - On Air

On Air is a sonic collage made from sound tracks taken from a series of short videos. Made in my studio, at home and in areas nearby using mainly static, durational shots of incidental objects or small creative events, the sound was at first incidental, but eventually became the overriding feature - the videos felt like field recordings and some of the outdoor shots incorporated sounds from a transistor radio. The soundscape was first transmitted live, via speakers into a gallery space and has since been made into a transparent vinyl record. Live transmission returns it back to the airwaves.

Rachel Cattle has recently finished a Contemporary Art PhD at Kingston University entitled I Am a Stylus: Play, Replay, Overdub, Broadcast. Recent events and exhibitions include The Yellow Book - 3 half hour radio programmes broadcast live on Resonance fm and Radiophrenia and A Million Lapses and Pauses, a series of events across Five Years, the ICA, London and Dorich House, Kingston - A Million Lapses and Pauses continues a radio(aktiv) broadcast in the form of recorded sound, live readings, publications and posters orbiting the publication Witch Dance - notes for radio.

3. Ronnie Blake - Number Station (Lillibullero Redux)

Short wave Number Station signals capture people’s curiosity with their eerie sounds and unknown meaning. Some have gone to great lengths to decode the broadcasts and locate the stations. Radio, like so much media today, is being disrupted and is under stress. The notion of ‘Pirate Radio’ seems like a relic from the past in the present context.
The BBC World Service ident ‘Lillibullero’ contained many layers of meaning beyond the utilitarian. This deconstructed melody, strained text to voice bot, and SOS reflect a current condition. Yet, radio retains the power to spark the imagination and waits to be rediscovered.

My formal music lessons were on violin and at a young age I trained in Radio Broadcasting. While I was in punk, new wave and indie bands I began experimenting more with sound which led to a focus in electronic music. I composed pieces for theatre, short films and the International Mail Art Network.
I had an electronic duo called Sloth Brain that performed at Nuit Blanche Toronto in 2009, 2010, and 2013. I continue to improvise with DRONE:KLUB and Cosmic Homeostasis.
I am a DJ and produce Techno, House and experimental works as REquel and
the _protoplasm_population.

4. Garrett Tiedemann - Last Thursday (in Fragments) - Episode 2 - It was, in some ways, a total disaster

In 2015 Don Chambers hosted "a music and other things entertainment" each month called The Last Thursday. Each month had its own theme and governed not only the types of content, but way of presentation for the evening. These evenings lived and died in the moment with very little social media promotion or archiving.
In series 2 of The White Whale we offer snippets of these evenings; providing first glimpses beyond the nights of what went down and why their existence foregoing online permanence is important. Visit http://www.donchambersmusic.com/ for music and more.

Garrett Tiedemann is a radio producer, journalist, filmmaker and composer. He works for American Public Media covering the breadth and depth of composed music for YourClassical and Classical Minnesota Public Radio while also producing films, music videos, music and the podcast The White Whale via his production company CyNar Pictures. As a freelancer, he has lent production and compositional approaches to the podcasts Vanishing Ink, Here Be Monsters, The Organist, ARRVLS, Life of the Law, and Top Score. Additionally, he manages production and strategy for the oral history/storytelling project SisterStory.

5. Tom Miller (aka Comrade Squelch) - Are You Listening

Do you really know how to listen to the radio? Text-to-speech bots, speech-to-text bots, Internet radio scanning, news programs, shortwave drift, and an instructional tape are here to inform you. Are You Listening?, originally composed for Wave Farm radio, is a follow-up to Spectral Wars, which was selected for Radiophrenia 2016 in the Shorts category. The present mix was first broadcast on WGXC-FM in July 2017.

Tom Miller, a.k.a. Comrade Squelch, is a sonic anthropologist. He was an Artist in Residence at Wave Farm in 2017 and premiered his latest composition at Drum Castle in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. Past residencies include the American Museum of Natural History, Anchorage Museum, Bates College Theater, Ethnographic Terminalia, and Proteus Gowanus. A National Endowment for the Arts award-winning composer, he produced public radio programs for WKCR-FM and KRAB-FM. He has a B.A. in Music from Wesleyan and a Ph.D. in Anthropology from Columbia University, and has taught at NYU’s Clive Davis Institute of Recorded Music, Pratt, and the University of Iceland.

7. Luke Pell – Simone Kenyon A Sea View

Some Words to Wander With are a series of recordings as part of In the Ink Dark, a dance and a poem made from from memory and conversation. A project from Luke Pell and collaborators. Created as part of the project invited voices - artists who make dances, whose works are both poetic and choreographic - offer a collection of musings that speak to words and to dances, bodies and buildings, science and nature, to thought and to feeling, to memory, materiality, landscape and loss. They are wisdoms for living, some words to wander with where you live, at work, at rest, at home, away.

Fascinated by detail, nuances of time, texture, memory and landscape Luke Pell is a maker and curator who collaborates with other artists and organisations imagining alternative contexts for performance, participation and discourse that might reveal wisdoms for living. Noticing threads that weave between people and place his artistic projects take form as intimate encounters, poetic objects, installations and environments - choreographies - for physical and virtual spaces.

8. Peter Hawkey - The Wotsit King

The Wotsit King is a piece composed using set notes based on Donald Trump’s most commonly tweeted words. The set notes could be played at any octave on any instrument used. The notes that had to be played were B, F, D, F#, F, A#, D#, G#, D, A#, D#, D#, E, G#, B, D#. These gave a very dystopian final piece!

Peter Hawkey is a guitarist and composer who works with many styles of music. He has written a series of one handed piano pieces, and donated them to the charities The Stroke Association and Help for Heroes, in the hope that they would be beneficial to those who do not have full use of both hands. More recently his mu

Collaborating with actor Peter Hugo Daly and Berlin-based musician Tim Eve The Solar Pessimist combines a performed spoken-word monologue with a cyclical, rhythmic soundscape.

Shifting between speculative ‘pub chat’ and philosophical diatribe, our guiding voice becomes distracted, his thoughts distorted through the joint lenses of conspiracy theory, new-agism and that of the self-righteous contemporary consumer.

Within this meandering thought-process are propositions about what best to be doing at the end of the world, how zero-gravity pornography will affect us all and… if the sun is a conscious being… what happens when he starts talking back?

John Lawrence (b.1981, UK) lives and works in Nottingham.

Mining a contemporary archive of images, footage, formats and references – and working across a wide-range of approaches incorporating large-scale video installation, sound, digital print, writing, live performance and publishing – Lawrence actively questions how we communicate ideas through the production and dissemination of cultural objects, and how mediated experiences of the world can impact on what could be described as a ‘collective psyche’.

Lawrence previously studied at the Royal Academy Schools, London, and is currently Lecturer in Fine Art at both Kingston University and the University of Lincoln.

I Lover in Revolt
II The Future of Radio is Dirty
III Radio Unbroken

Read it like it's the gas bill. Get your partner or a family member to read it. Amauterism is always encouraged.

Dai Coelacanth is a self propelled outsider. A man with a saucy job. Listen to this sound. Gravy rituals. Snake hiss. Landfill electronics. Dirty and ancient. This is just a recording.

With The diluted Hours, we are plunged in the heart/body of the artists’ seismic intentionality: the symbolical and aesthetic mutation of fantastical Sci-Fi becoming the demiurge of the wreckage of our time. A prophetic announcement of the cataclysm – far from being morbid, it radiates a spectrum of imaginary possibilities for our future struggles. But where there is a danger, what can save us also grows. The dissection of our ills becomes the mirror of a new body the audience will have to build like insolent architects.

Since they met in 2001, the Magali Daniaux and Cédric Pigot’s joint work bears the dual hallmark of experimentation and performance. Their pieces bring together various media, associating elements from opposite ranges, with a taste for connections between Sci-Fi and documentary forms, high-tech engineering and fantasy tales, heavyweight materials and fleeting sensations. Starting with installations and objects, their work soon included experimental actions and more immaterial artistic gestures. Videos, sound art, music, poetry, olfactive research, virtual works bordering the digital arts have formed, over the past years, a cycle of works dealing with climate change, economic, political and geo-strategic issues, urban development and food management. They are currently working in Alaska on land art projects dealing with time, archaeology, geology and climate change.

Their work was shown in leading institutions and festivals : Terminal B, in kirkenes - Norway, in 2017, Cosmoscow, in moscow in 2017, festival acce)s(, in Pau, 2016, Musée du Jeu de Paume in Paris in 2014, Venice Biennial of Architecture in Italy in 2014, Barents Spektakel in 2013 in Norway, Ultima Festival, at Oslo Opera in 2011, Palais de Tokyo in Paris in 2011, Qui Vive International Biennial in Moscow in 2010 and Dashanzi Art Festival in Beijing in 2004

A 30 min audio journey at walking, stumbling and snuffling pace. The Piece is seen through the trials and tribulations of a deceased welfare claimant ghoul. Channelled through the (meth) spirit network... and communicated through a fictional”in house” radio station at the Social/DSS etc... The Derelict site of this welfare place long gone/closed down since the 1980s was built on the site of an ancient burial ground of bumped off skivers/conscious objectors, the inflicted and the ergophobic. It’s told through the eyes of 1920s fella who is tipped off by a blind beggar that it's better to dole it then work , and there in this poor sucker see the light. He then takes a journey of discovery and is in/out of many jobs for maybe a day at a time. Stuck In the cyst of slime and swimming in ectoplasm. Bouncing back and forth in vapour space-time to and fro the work bureau/DSS. Still confused about which path to bumble/walk/transcend or even copulate...

If the people united never could be defeated why did the Susquehanna People disappear? This question that keeps me busy for a long time until Jimmy and I did one of our many videochats. He was intriqued also by the role of the Europeans in this phenomenon - the French, the Dutch, the Swedes, and the English.

After an intensive research Jimmy wrote a balanced story about the Susquehanna People while i did an interpreation of an interpretation by Frederic Rzewski who I greatly admire. The music in this project is based on 15 of the 36 variations in different forms and interpretations - with unusual combinations of instruments and music styles - from classical to electronic music - from concert hall to intimate studio. This Symphonic Poem leaves room for the imagination of the listener to create his or her own story about the Susquehanna People.

The sound work "Millionth" was constructed simply by using a telephone and audio recording equipment. I systematically recorded individuals saying the word 'hello' when they first answered the telephone. I charted my telephonic journey through 227 different countries working on a ratio of 1:1000000 to condense the worlds population to just 6348 people. Each individual "hello" has then been edited into a sequence in which every country appears in descending order of population size one after the other, resulting in a 43 minute audio track.

I’ve created a contemporary symphony called Alcohol Fuelled Violence that deals with asperger syndrome, epilepsy, violence in socially deprived areas, NHS surgery, loss and atonement.

The symphony tells the story of what happened to my brother after he was the victim of an alcohol fuelled attack.

I am a producer/artist from Northern England and I create orchestral music using cut-ups, layers and loops of public domain classical pieces.

This episode mixes Pimsleur language-learning exercises with the ghost scene from Satyajit Ray’s Goopy Gyne Bagha Byne, Lavinia Greenlaw’s verse take on Wagner’s Tristan and Isolde, Serge Gainsbourg in Morocco, documentaries on the Silk Road and the burning of the great library of Alexandria, an interrupted newscaster, a troglodyte musician, and the music of ancient Greece.

During 2013 Momus created a series of radiophonic programmes for Newcastle radio station BasicFM entitled Hearspool. Mesmeric, evocative, and made in the tradition of German neue hoerspiel.

Momus is a Scot who makes songs, books and art. He lives between Europe and Japan.

Miriam Schikler recorded sound fragments from the reality of state violence against
Palestinians in the West Bank as means of activism and music making.

A series of radio programs By Dani Gal and Achim Lengerer. Originally commissioned by Documenta 14.

The radio is an acousmatic instrument. Listeners do not see the origin of the sound,
their experience is shaped both by the their own interpretation, and the manipulation
of the producer in a political system.

Our programs work on the space between documentary and Musique concrète.
Each show focuses on political events that are connected to acoustic events. This
creates an acousmatic documentary where the programs become sound-objects.
The programs response to the 'image saturated society' discourse, by asking what is
the function of sound as a document in times of live video feeds that can be broadcast
by anyone.

Dani Gal (born 1975, Jerusalem) lives and works in Berlin. He studied at the Bezalel
Academy for Art and Design in Jerusalem; the Staatliche Hochschule für Bildende
Künste Städelschule in Frankfurt; and the Cooper Union in New York. His flms and
works have been shown widely, including: Documenta 14, 54th Venice Biennale
(2011), The Istanbul Biennale (2011), The New Museum New York (2012),
Kunsthalle St. Gallen Swizerland (2013), The Jewish museum New York (2014),
Berlinale Forum Expanded (2014), Kunsthaus Zurich (2015) Kunsthalle Wien (2015)
And more.

Achim Lengerer works on political questions of speech and language that he
thematizes in performances, radio plays or spatializes within installations and
publications. Lengerer founded different collaborative projects such as freitagsküche
in Frankfurt a. M. and voiceoverhead, with Dani Gal. Since 2009 Lengerer runs the
Berlin based showroom and publishing house Scriptings. Different Artists are invited
– all of which are working with the formats of script and text within their processes of
production. Lengerer is currently working on his Ph.D. at Goldsmiths, University of
London, UK, on the format of the rehearsal as an actual format for socio-political
negotiations.

For the last five years I have taken a sample from every video I watch on my laptop. As a tip of the hat to William Burroughs and Robert Anton Wilson I take the sample from the 23rd minute. Each sample is arranged and layered chronologically, constructing an aleatory narrative, a random DJ mix of dialogue, music and foley, a self portrait of viewing habits and memory. VHS rips merge with Blu Ray restorations, youtube binges mingle with abandoned box sets.

Barry Burns is not the bloke out of Mogwai, its a different, unsuccessful one. He is the co-manager of Radiophrenia and has used his immense power to give himself the highly coveted 5am slot.

Here we speak to Marianne Crousillac and Jean-Baptiste Imbert of Radio Grenouille in Marseille in France.

Mobile Radio offer an overview of independent and not-for-profit community, ‘free’, campus, and pirate stations who provide a wealth of material and perspectives outside of the mainstream media orthodoxy. This series constitutes a major retrospective of the work of the radio art network Radia, whose collective mission is to make radio that transcends the borders and boundaries of land and language. Mobile Radio visit each station in turn to discern their motives and inspirations, and explore the work of one of their associated artists. Produced with support from Goethe Institut.

"Concept Bongo"'s completely minimal logic is not exhausted in the fact that it is an album that is only played with bongos. Because beyond this conception, the music we find in its thirty minutes is characterized by a mystagogic feeling which, through an abstracted and repetitive ambience, keeps you totally transfixed, marginally helpless to react to it. References to the musical culture of the percussion instruments are stimuli left to the listener's own discretion: you can understand "Concept Bongo" as raw material for spiritual escapees, study it as pure improvisation or regard it as an exercise on style, even. Anla Courtis has studied classical guitar, piano, theory and composition, but here he plays the role of the abstract percussionist, with all the rhythmic liberties of a contemporary improviser. "Concept Bongo" is like one of Zeitkratzer's dreams for the organic performance of electronic music, with Pauline Oliveiros' spirit being unable to escape the studio. And now I know what I will be listening to after Jon Mueller's "Metals" or Paal Nilsen-Love's "Cut and Bleed".

Anla Courtis is a key figure of contemporary avant garde. He began in 1993 in Buenos Aires, co-creating Reynols, an experimental band in which he played the electric guitar, with which he released more than 100 vinyls and cassettes. A small number compared to the huge volume of his personal releases, as well as his collaborations with over two hundred artists of the experimental sound.

2. Gregory Kramer - Barbed Wire V

Barbed Wire V is a selection from Barbed Wire, an album of soundworks composed from barbed wire fence recordings I made while in the bushveld of the Limpopo province, South Africa.

Gregory Kramer is a multidisciplinary artist working with sound and space. Taking inspiration from his archaeological curiosity of abandoned places and his interest in mythology, he searches for ghosts among the ruins and seeks to unearth evidence of forgotten histories through sound. His sound work uses field recordings, found materials, electronics, instruments and radio transmissions. His work was featured in the Sonom International Sound Art Festival, and he recently composed for a dance piece performed at the Setia Darma Museum of Masks and Puppetry in Bali. He has album releases on Impulsive Habitat and International Winners.

3. Alexis Weaver - The Odd Forest

The limits of the stereo sound space are explored from bottom to top in this peculiar landscape, created from the sound of a child’s wind-up unicorn toy and the carols of wild synths. The listener is dropped into an otherworldly forest which is alive and seething with fast-moving creatures; friend or foe, you never can tell… This piece is part of a larger suite of works drawing on the sounds of childhood toys.

Alexis Weaver is a young electroacoustic composer based in Sydney, Australia. Growing up close to the pristine beaches and landscapes of Jervis Bay, Alexis is fascinated by sounds of the natural world. By fusing her classical education with music technology, Alexis aims to create powerful abstract works and bring the wonder of sound to new audiences.

Alexis has composed soundtracks for animation, short stories, radio, and the Sydney Fringe Festival. Recently, her acousmatic and radiophonic works have been broadcast overseas in France and Scotland. Alexis was awarded First Place and People’s Choice Award in the 2016 and 2015 University of Sydney Verge Awards respectively for her acousmatic works. Alexis’ 2017 work, Spin, will be included on RMN Classical’s upcoming album, Electroacoustic and Beyond Volume 2.

4. Hoagy Houghton - Radio Photographs

Like so many of us, Hoagy Houghton has a compulsive, and at times, perplexing need to take photographs. In a bid to understand why he is seemingly so dependent on the visual image, Hoagy has removed the image itself from his photography, presenting an ongoing exhibition of observations and interpretations to photograph’s he has taken. Here, Cody Lee Barbour, Joel Cox and Aimee Elizabeth Skelton take on the task of describing three of these photos. It is Hoagy’s intention to give the listener creative freedom in viewing each image and to encourage them to consider their own engagement with imagery and sound.

Hoagy Houghton is a London based artist, interested in understanding the poetics of the senses.

Cody Lee Barbour has a fondness of soft drinks & spaghetti with the aim of inspiring fuzzy heads. Currently working & writing words in the UK after a warm sabbatical in Perth.
Joel Cox is a radio producer, musician and co-creator of the podcast London Compass Radio. He lives in Glasgow.

Aimee Elizabeth Skelton grew up in Falkirk and now lives in Glasgow, where she works in a soap shop. She holds a BA in English from the University of Strathclyde, and was the winner of the 2016 Peggy Grant Award for her dissertation on sound poetry. She has been performing her own poetry around Glasgow since the age of 16, and has been published in journals in Scotland and Canada. She is currently involved in a project with Paisley Pen & Paper facilitating free creative writing workshops for mental wellbeing.

5. Blake Degraw - Triple Quartet

Electronic Duodecet for Humans is a four-movement recording experiment conceptualized, executed, and recorded by Blake DeGraw. It explores reaction as a generative device. Each movement contains twelve overdubbed layers of the performer listening and reacting to aural stimuli that only he can hear (through headphones). The nature of the performer’s interactions with these stimuli changes with each four movements, ranging from harmonization to gestural imitation to direct mimicry.

Blake DeGraw is a composer, performer, bandleader, and sound-installation artist currently residing in Seattle, WA. He studied euphonium performance at the Las Vegas Academy of Performing Arts, and currently studies modern composition at Cornish College of the Arts. He is the director and conductor of FHTAGN, an experimental chamber ensemble that focuses on extremes in spatial dispersion, as well as indeterminacy operations, free improvisation, and alternative forms of conduction within those extremes. DeGraw is also the co-founder of Plancklength, a sound-art collective that explores interactive sound production through installation work and instrument creation.

6. Harry Moore - Bells of Verdelaise

Walking in France into the Bordeaux region I entered Verdelaise as the call to mass bells rang out, resonating off the stone walled town. I could physically feel the sound waves as I sat and recorded them, this treatment is my interpretation of the experience and includes some of the raw untreated recording.

7. Amanda Johnson - On High Wheeldon

Composed by Buxton Museum’s artist in residence, Amanda Johnson, for their new gallery opening in September 2017, The Hindlow Lion Suite consists of four electro-acoustic pieces for stringed instruments and recorded environmental sounds. Inspired by the Cave lion bones in Buxton Museum’s collection, the composer uses ancient cave lion DNA to inform the music. The pieces were recorded in Foxhole Cave in the Peak District National Park, Derbyshire, where ice age cave lion bones have been found.

With thanks to Arts Council England, Buxton Museum, Heritage Lottery Fund, The National Trust, Sound and Music and The British Library sound archive.

Recent recipient of the Francis Chagrin award Amanda Johnson is a composer and violinist fast gaining a reputation for work made in response to museum collections. In recent years she has worked with the British Music Collection, the National Trust, Nottingham Trent University, Sheffield Cathedral, the National Coal Mining Museum and is she currently composer in residence here at Buxton Museum.

After a classical training, Amanda played in a number of orchestras and chamber groups. In recent years her practice has moved towards composition, her work combining traditional composition, digital sounds and live performance, often derived from data or patterns.

2. Kala Pierson – Chikatilo Arc

Chikatilo Arc comes from my work making audio for an experimental play in which the actors spoke only source texts (or slightly modified source texts) by the subjects of the play. One subject was Andrei Chikatilo, a serial killer who lived in mid-20th-century Ukraine. In this piece, the sound sources are actor Dan Maccarone portraying Young Chikatilo; a processed “Shh” sound; and Ilya Temkin playing bandura, a Ukrainian lute.

Kala Pierson is an American composer and sound artist. Vivid, expressive, and full of bold colors, her music has been performed in more than 30 countries on six continents, widely awarded and commissioned, and published by Universal Edition. She's held season-long composer residencies with American Opera Projects, Tribeca Performing Arts Center, and San Francisco Choral Artists. With deep interests in non-western musics, she's initiated many cross-cultural projects. Born in 1977, she studied composition at Eastman School of Music and now lives in Philadelphia with her spouses and son.

3. Josh Carro - [[[man muzzle]]]

[man muzzle] is an audio representation of our perceived processing of time. involving the audio documentation of field recordings of Los Angeles which can be anything that exists in the time bound space perception, i am connecting the sound documentation of the landscape into an art work that represents time in it’s most natural perceivable form.

josh carro (b. 1982-) is a multimedia artist who works with simple materials, complex sound processing, and noise. Based in Los Angeles, carro started a disciplined practice in percussion at an early age and became obsessed with visual art, metal music, jazz, percussion, electronic, recording, and experimental music composition. carro has performed in countless spaces and recordings across the U.S., Canada, and Europe with sound work performances and commissions by The Futurist Intoners in The Cleveland Museum of Art, Singapore Art Science Center, Laurie Anderson, Rat Bastard, Ehnahre, Blood Oath, UC Berkeley Cellist Ensemble, Wild Rumpus, What’s Next? Ensemble, Now Hear Ensemble, Ulrich Krieger, Vicki Ray, and Susan Allen. As a recording artist, carro has recorded his and many other works at Capitol Records, T.V. Stand Studios and has released multiple electro-acoustic albums on labels including: XI Records, H.L.M., Somehow Recordings, Vent, and Ephem-Aural.

4. Kevin Logan - The Sounding of Plastic and Paper

This is a mumbling examination of the deliberate crushing crumpling of a plastic water bottle which has become a stock device in my recent presentations. It is often the first act or action that I engage when taking my place behind a speaker’s podium, or other such staged space.

It is intended to set a register for what is about to happen. This obstinate-object sounding is a slightly uncomfortable ‘doing’. Its role is a comedic misplacement, a slightly subversive and almost unhiemlich deed. As a rule, the cheaper and less reputable the brand of bottled
Kevin Logan is a Manchester born artist based in London, UK. His work embraces cross-disciplinary fields and incorporates installation, sound, moving-image and performance. He has exhibited and performed internationally, had audio-visual works screened in festivals worldwide, and had sound works on compilation CDs.

He is currently a part-time PhD candidate with the research organisation CRiSAP (Creative Research into Sound Arts Practice), University of the Arts London. This practice-led research explores the sonic through mediation, performance, and pedagogic and curatorial outcomes. His theoretical and experimental texts have been published in print and online, and he presents regularly at conferences and symposia.

5. Kamen Ivanov Nedev (a.k.a Acoustic Mirror) - Ghostwalk 02 - Estépar

"Ghostwalk 02 - Estépar" is based on field recordings made in Monte de Estépar, in the Spanish Province of Burgos, in July 2017. Monte de Estépar is a beautiful small holm oak forest, and is also the site where 327 citizens were assassinated by Franco's Regime during the Spanish Civil War, and were buried in a series of common graves.

Ghostwalks is a series of works which explore the relationship between soundscape, historical memory, and public space. The locations are usually important sites of memory, and the work mines the in/audible spectrum of sound captured in these locations.

Kamen Nedev is a sound artist, flâneur, and independent cultural producer. Since 1986 he works and tries to live in Madrid, Spain. Under the Acoustic Mirror moniker, since 2005 he has been working on a line of research in phonography, sound art, and radio art, with an emphasis on the soundscape of urban space as well as social sound production, situated listening, and militant sound investigation.

This work results from an unofficial residency and covert micro FM transmission at The Lizard Wireless Telegraphy Station, Cornwall: site of the first ‘over-the-horizon’ wireless communication by Marconi in 1901.

The work draws on field-recordings from a local landscape haunted by the architecture of listening and communication: the looming pulse of the Lizard Lighthouse foghorn, the automatic Morse of loose wires and antennas at Poldhu (site of the first trans-Atlantic wireless transmission). The piece opens with the di-di-dit, of Marconi’s test signal as performed on the station building and a derelict radar room at RAF Pen Oliver.

Sebastiane Hegarty is an artist, writer and lecturer. His practice explores the relationship between time, place and sensation, primarily through field-recording and soundscape composition. His work has been exhibited and broadcast across the UK and Europe: It’s Eating You, (IMT Gallery, London, 2015), and Heliocemtra, (Museum Punta della Dogana, Venice, 2016). In 2015 he curated the multidisciplinary conference, Chalk: time, sense landscape. More recently he contributed to the Sound of Memory symposium at Goldsmiths, London (2017). Published through Impulsive Habitat, Gruenrekorder and Very Quiet Records, works for radio include, It’s Just Where I Put My Words, (BBC Radio 3, 2013).

(1) Ralph Lewis - Fearless Reception: What Was The Hardest Part

(2) WE ARE THE SAME, WE ARE THE WORLD is an audio collage made up of every day sounds and interviews, intertwined with sounds from a range of countries and cultures. It features members of the 16+ programme at Glasgow Clyde College - the only one of its kind in Scotland, aimed at supporting unaccompanied young asylum seekers and refugees from a range of backgrounds and countries. It is a specialist ESOL (English for Speakers of Other Languages) course which incorporates creative arts, outdoor learning and extensive guidance. This year’s class, with an age range of 16-19, is made up of 22 young people who speak over 10 different languages. They have come together with the creative collective SISTER, to produce their own radio work for Radiophrenia, inspired by and featuring sounds of their home countries and what they hear in their new home of Glasgow.

Those taking part are: Abel, Sabrina, Yacob, Sarah, Senait and Kokob from Eritrea; Ahmed from Sudan; Burhan and Rahima from Ethiopia; Ming, Jie and Ling from China; Vero and Neron from Congo; Yacoub from Kuwait; Huong, Hoang and Cuong from Vietnam; Farid and Ishanullah from Afghanistan; Sharjeel from Pakistan; and Sarkawt from Iraq.

SISTER are a creative collective formed by Cass Ezeji and Siobhain Ma. Their work primarily explores the experiences and challenges facing mixed race Scottish women, along with questions of identity and establishing a connection with their respective backgrounds (Nigeria, Hong Kong, Ireland and Scotland) from a distance.

Produced by Siobhain Ma and Cass Ezeji.

(3) Ralph Lewis - Fearless Reception: What is Reception Like Today? (06:39)

These two selected movements from “Fearless Reception” feature different iterations of Ileana Merary’s musical creativity, storytelling, and advocacy. In “What Was the Hardest Part,” Merary’s recorded interview is gently processed and is accompanied by a live, indeterminate violin part. In Merary’s version of “What is Reception Like Today,” she and Rogue Trio use Ralph Lewis’s composition as a platform to combine Merary’s poetic text about a tense encounter with police and a song she composed about remaining calm in the face of the anxiety these experiences.

Fearless Reception is a series of pieces explicitly designed to inhabit radio and concert spaces as it aims to raise up immigration narratives from Arizona and promote inclusivity in our country. It is a collaboration between the Rogue Trio, singer/composer Ileana Merary, the Florence Project (www.firrp.org), and composer Ralph Lewis. Earlier performances/broadcasts have included support from Slate Arts Gallery, The Herberger Institute of Design and the Arts, WEFT 90.1-FM, and WGXC 90.7-FM.

A collaborative sound/photo work by Luke Fowler and Richard McMaster. Starting at sunrise on Saturday 9th September 2017 Fowler and McMaster walked the length of one of Glasgow's oldest and longest Roman roads; Great Western Road (GWR). Beginning at St. George's X they made timed 1minute recordings, every 7 minutes, until they reached a point (near Old Kilpatrick) where it became too dangerous to continue on foot. Using identical location mixers and the same Mid-Side microphone configurations- McMaster walked and recorded on one side of the road whilst Fowler recorded on the other. They both recorded as prompted and by the agreed fixed structure- with no plan or anticipation of capturing any specific sound events besides the road itself. The two discreet, yet synchronised recordings are then brought together in the editing process and panned hard left and right to create a wide stereo image of the road's soundscape on that day. The Great Western Road documents the city slowly awakening and traverses a cross-section of neighbourhoods and terrains from St. George's X and Kelvinbridge to Anniesland and Duntocher. It crosses the River Kelvin and passes alongside Botanical Gardens and Gartnavel Hospital before reaching the A82 motorway. The Great Western Road is a major route for commercial traffic and also the means for the citiy's' inhabitants to escape on daytrips to Loch Lomond and beyond.

Richard McMaster is an artist/musician – he lives and works in Glasgow (UK).
Luke Fowler is a filmmaker/musician – he lives and works in Glasgow (UK).

1. Reuben Telushkin - 2067

2067 is a 15-minute sound piece dealing with the theme of the 50th anniversary of the 1967 Detroit Rebellion. Weaving samples, speech clips, sound effects, into news reports into a single sonic narrative, the piece explores what has changed and what hasn't in the 50 years since the rebellion, and looks 50 years into the future to imagine a future in which liberation has taken place.

Reuben Telushkin is a sound and visual artist based in Detroit, MI. He builds interactive electronic music installations utilizing tangible interaction and rapid prototyping technology. Reuben's work is an exploration of the convergence of time and space in number, using sound and geometry to illuminate those connections. Much of Reuben's work is concerned with the role of technology in Black popular culture.

2. Vincent Eoppolo - Self Portrait 2017

I view my works as a synthesis of various sound art traditions including musique concrete, acousmatic music and radio art.

In my work I strive to present brief moments of the world we are living in. Society in the continuing process of realizing itself. Our relationship with each other, with technology, our morality, spirituality, sexuality, our anxieties and fears. In many ways my works are like sociological and psychological commentaries. My work has been featured on Bernard Clarke's program Nova on RTE's Lyric FM, Phaune Radio from Montpellier, France as well as Radio Art International on CHOQ Radio in Montreal. My works were recently presented at the 2017 New York City Electro-Acoustic Music Festival.

3. Garrett Tiedemann - Last Thursday (in Fragments) - Season Preview - Quote Me

In 2015 Don Chambers hosted "a music and other things entertainment" each month called The Last Thursday. Each month had its own theme and governed not only the types of content, but way of presentation for the evening. These evenings lived and died in the moment with very little social media promotion or archiving.
In series 2 of The White Whale we offer snippets of these evenings; providing first glimpses beyond the nights of what went down and why their existence foregoing online permanence is important. Visit http://www.donchambersmusic.com/ for music and more.

Garrett Tiedemann is a radio producer, journalist, filmmaker and composer. He works for American Public Media covering the breadth and depth of composed music for YourClassical and Classical Minnesota Public Radio while also producing films, music videos, music and the podcast The White Whale via his production company CyNar Pictures. As a freelancer, he has lent production and compositional approaches to the podcasts Vanishing Ink, Here Be Monsters, The Organist, ARRVLS, Life of the Law, and Top Score. Additionally, he manages production and strategy for the oral history/storytelling project SisterStory.

4. Barry Burns - when my husband dreams

Found reel to reel tape.

5. Martin Heslop and Helen Tookey – Jitties

These three tracks, Jitties, Beautiful Error and Glasshouse, are part of an ongoing collaboration between poet Helen Tookey and composer Martin Heslop. While the original texts use fragmentation to try to convey a particular experience – a sense of the language sliding, piling up, or of a mind going over and over a question – the fixed, written work can only create this effect to a limited extent. Here, the words are cut and spliced, repeated and layered to make the language move and track over itself, while the soundbeds pulse and shimmer, creating a texture of volatility and urgency.

Helen Tookey is a poet based in Liverpool. Her debut collection Missel-Child (Carcanet, 2014) was shortlisted for the Seamus Heaney first collection prize. Her pamphlet In the Glasshouse was published by HappenStance Press in 2016, and the CD/booklet If You Put Out Your Hand, a collaboration with musician Sharron Kraus, was released by Wounded Wolf Press in 2016.

Martin Heslop is a composer and writer based in Newcastle. He has written scores and lyrics for short and full-length theatre shows and film, and has worked on many collaborations with poets, playwrights and visual artists for live performances, recordings and installations.

6. Valery Mikromedas - OGLE-2005-BLG-390Lb_08

Mikromedas is a data-driven musical project in which compositions are elaborated using data from space, deep space and numerical simulation models related to various astrophysical phenonoma. Compositions in the project are produced using source material that consists of sampled (live) radio astronomical data (e.g. data as recorded by several spacecrafts such as Voyager1, Voyager or registered data emitted by various pulsar stars which is over 22000 years old), observed and simulated numerical astrophysical data streams turned into sounds using newly developed sonification techniques.

Spanish Language. Sound experimentation of poems related about to life in big cities. Quito, capital of Ecuador, brings stories of different authors who in short poetry expose the daily life of the streets, homes, environments and passing the days surrounded by the cold cement in which they live.

Audio producer born in Ecuador, during my professional career I was involved in the creation and coordination of cultural and musical events. As a sound engineer I was involved in a few recording projects in close cooperation with Ecuadorian hip hop and rock alternative stage. My interest in music and my profession as a sound engineer was closely connected to my involvement in social and community projects. I am a board member of an NGO working in the defence and wellbeing of Amazonian rainforest. I was the creator and coordinator of the festival Amazonia Indomable.

8. Paco Dvoi - Purest State

"Purest State" explores the way in which a person can desire to escape into a rural environment but yet be mentally trapped in an urban reality. With a touch of humour, this spoken word piece highlights the kind of conditioning that can make a person prefer elevators, drug stores, and internet love, over nudity in nature and the joy of peeing from an ancient tree “while high on fragrant breeze”.

Between 2001 and 2007, Paco Dvoi fronted Chilean rock band Toximetro, performing in dresses and ripped stockings while singing mainly in English. The band released an EP titled Euphoproctox: EP Infusion. In 2007, Paco returned to Toronto where he completed a B. Ed. and wrote songs on an acoustic guitar. In 2012, he released a solo album titled Shades of Dysphoria. In 2015, Paco released Morphogenesis, songs and spoken word featuring a variety of guest musicians. Paco Dvoi’s work is poetically-inspired and reflects light and darkness in its incisive portrayal of people and situations rooted in an imperfect world.

Steppes, deserts, and high mountains dominate the region of Cuyo in west Argentina. The fragile water infrastructure forms an audible contrast in this barren landscape, creating fertile valleys and oases, rich with vegetation. The condensed soundscape moves between these extremes of "naturally dry" and "artificially wet". The silent landscape elements were articulated through improvisation on site: hunks of earth fly through canyons, ebbing water crackles across salt deserts, small wood chips fall on cactuses, sand trickles down heaps of metal. All composed sounds are unprocessed (except gentle equalization).

'The Midshipman' is a short, narrated prose set to sound. It tells the story of two survivors of a shipwreck, stuck on a narrow lifeboat, adrift on the ocean. The language is unforgiving, harsh, malevolent. The soundscore, veering between overtly musical elements and impressionistic noise, tracks the psychological journey of the narrator. This work is intended for stage production in 2018, with this edit version existing specifically for the medium of radio.

Joe Harney is an Irish musician, composer and sound designer, based in Edinburgh; Nicholas Kavanagh, an Irish stage actor based in Waterford, Ireland. Kate A Wright, a Welsh writer based in London. Joe and Nicholas have collaborated many times on stage productions of new theatre works. They both loved the short story from Kate, and decided to attempt to bring its unsettling lyricism to life in sound.

We listen to a play and the audience watching it. As the show progresses, the reactions in the auditorium change; the public is annoyed. The stage and the show were built using a collage of sounds from the Freesound collaborative database.

Ten stories for the radio – Five collected stories elaborated into five sound tales

Project by Renato Rinaldi Production and organisation by Hybrida
Pieces by Slavek Kwi - Eric la casa - Antje Vowinckel - Ward Weis - Giuseppe Ielasi Funded by Arlef / Agjenzie Regjonâl pe Lenghe Furlane
Aired by Frioulian local Radio Onde Furlane

Language is a sound, before being a meaning, and it’s the first human element in a soundscape. The stories have then been selectet according to the ability of the teller in using the language in a dramatic way more than for the stories themselves. For each story we have commissioned a music piece in which the recorded tale had to be the core of the composition. Such transformation could only be possible in the hands of people who doesn’t have access to the meaning of the words. That is why we have chosen musicians the furthest away possible from Friulian geography, culture and language so as to have them relate with a new, as far as this is possible today, sound context.

The title literally means cow tongue but it refers to a edible plant: Rumex patientia, known as patience dock, "garden patience", "herb patience", or "monk's rhubarb", is a herbaceous perennial plant species of the genus Rumex, belonging to the family Polygonaceae. In spring it is often consumed as a leaf vegetable in Southern Europe.

The Friulian language is a mosaic of units, more often micro-units, territorial, each one with its own linguistic nuances and peculiar sound. The development of such peculiarities is the result of a long and continuous exchange with the environment, which each community entertains while setting its roots in a certain area. Language is a sound, before being a meaning, and it’s the first human element in a soundscape. The project Lenghedivacje endeavours at bringing out the sound of the Friulian language, throughout the collection of recorded material concerning historical or personal events. The stories have then been selected according to the ability of the teller in using the language in a dramatic way more than for the stories themselves. The events told are of course significant also as testimony but are especially extraordinary for the way in which they are “spoken” because they are unique and unique is the language they are using. Inside these stories there is a rich musical potential but in order to bring it out we have pushed the language over the wall of sense. For each story we have commissioned a music piece in which the recorded tale had to be the core of the composition. Such transformation could only be possible in the hands of people who could appreciate exclusively the sound of the language thus deprived of its dramatic element linked to sense. That is why we have chosen musicians the furthest away possible from Friulian geography, culture and language so as to have them relate with a new, as far as this is possible today, sound context. The composers selected for this task are people who routinely work with the sound of language and who use the radio as a means of expression investigating its communication possibilities. Each one of them was asked to work on a music composition starting exclusively form the recorded material assigned to them. The result is a series of compositions created from the phonemes (sound bits) of the Friulian language though enjoyable also away from its understanding.

Collected tales

2a - Lidia Dorigo - Interview collected in Caprizzi (UD)
Halfway between history and legend the village Buarta in the XVIII° century is wiped out by a landslide and is subsequently rebuilt in a different valley by its only survivor.

Elaborated into 2b - È puis YOU by Eric la casa - (France)

I don’t normally work with material that has not been recorder by myself because to me the moment I record, the moment I open my ears to the world is of fundamental importance. Listening is already a musical act. The piece which was assigned to me was not particularly interesting except for the extrordinary prosody of a woman whose speach I did not understand (at times I had the illusion I could catch a word). In my approach to the task I had to chose between two options: either go to the place where the recording was made for a dynamic listening, then find a place particular to that person (the acoustic space is fundamental in my work); alternatively I could work towards trying and making the material my own. Afterall the rules imposed were sufficient enough to force me to do what I did not want to do, in fact it would have been impossible for me to go there on my own.
This is exactly what I needed, be adrift. Someone to push me so as to allow myself to be drifted away by the air and material. I began by studying what was in the voice, moving then to the sound of the breath then to the first syllabs an finally to the words. I organized the material into lists in order to be able to observe the matter I was dealing with, but mainly to have the possibility to re-map (re-assemble) a whole and to find new sound shapes. Every list originates to anumber of multiple vairations, though the list is but a support to the variation, a step in the process of de-materialization of this voice. In this area of improvisation (which is the core of the composition) I began to re-listen to the original material making it my own. The voice in its original space (A) is a sound while it becomes musical fragment in the organized space of the lists (B). The lists are then inserted into “digital” solutions more or less complex and generated from the same raw material.
The final purpose of all these operations is to “expand” the listening field. I therefore worked in the gap between A and B in order to create a new space where I could position myself together with the listener inwhich what could be understood/perceived of the original sound has been multiplied/expanded/ filtered from the material organized into lists.

Renato Rinaldi studied acting, composition and electronic music. He has worked extensively in theater, first as an actor and then as a sound artist. As a musician he has composed music for theatre, radio plays and documentaries, video and sound installations. He is interested in composition applied to the relationship between sound /environment.

A collaborative sound/photo work by Luke Fowler and Richard McMaster. Starting at sunrise on Saturday 9th September 2017 Fowler and McMaster walked the length of one of Glasgow's oldest and longest Roman roads; Great Western Road (GWR). Beginning at St. George's X they made timed 1minute recordings, every 7 minutes, until they reached a point (near Old Kilpatrick) where it became too dangerous to continue on foot. Using identical location mixers and the same Mid-Side microphone configurations- McMaster walked and recorded on one side of the road whilst Fowler recorded on the other. They both recorded as prompted and by the agreed fixed structure- with no plan or anticipation of capturing any specific sound events besides the road itself. The two discreet, yet synchronised recordings are then brought together in the editing process and panned hard left and right to create a wide stereo image of the road's soundscape on that day. The Great Western Road documents the city slowly awakening and traverses a cross-section of neighbourhoods and terrains from St. George's X and Kelvinbridge to Anniesland and Duntocher. It crosses the River Kelvin and passes alongside Botanical Gardens and Gartnavel Hospital before reaching the A82 motorway. The Great Western Road is a major route for commercial traffic and also the means for the citiy's' inhabitants to escape on daytrips to Loch Lomond and beyond.

Richard McMaster is an artist/musician – he lives and works in Glasgow (UK).
Luke Fowler is a filmmaker/musician – he lives and works in Glasgow (UK).

This work describes the seven days of the Catholic Genesis. The soundscape for
any day is presented in original sound but is presented in different ambience. I
have extracted twelve soundscapes and combined the soundscapes with
the twelve notes from the musical scale. In the final I have created the eighth day
that describe the today time with our soundscape.

1. Ben Glas - Music For An Empty Space

"Music For An Empty Space" is the first track on the recently released album titled "Music For An Empty Space And Full Mind" by Ben Glas, via Portland, OR based record label Sounds Et Al. The piece is a spatial composition consisting of sinewaves and focuses on creating a space for perceptive interacting for the pleasure and consideration of each individual listener. This piece acts as a sonic installation, filling each space with new tonal possibilities for a unique listening experience.

Ben Glas is an interdisciplinary artist working from Portland, OR. With a keen focus on perceptual phenomena and vibration, his work engages notions of relativity, space and spatial modes of experiencing sound. Glas' intent is to offer a time and space for individual listeners to become aware of their experience and existence in spacetime.

2. Jaxton Su – Dreamscape:Reverse Time

Dreamscape is an exploration of how sounds in dreams can be translated aurally to form a narrative that could potentially aid in the understanding of the self. It aims to provide the audience with a sonic experience of the artist's self-portrait as told by his dreams.

Jaxton Su (b. 1988) is a Singaporean Visual Artist, based in Glasgow, UK. He enjoys experimenting with the use of colours in portraying peculiar narratives that delve into the notions of archetypes and the imaginary. Taking inspirations from the natural environment, Jaxton often creates bizarre dreamlike worlds with a whimsical composition of elements to bring across his ideas. Working with a variety of different mediums such as painting and installation, he hopes to create a visual utopia that could form a resonation with others and spark an imagination.

3. J Diaz - Sic Pilot: Part II

Sic Pilot: Part II is a work recently released on J Diaz’s debut album, Sic Pilot. The piece unravels deeply seeded racism in the American landscape and combines electronic sounds with spoken word elements--quoting the likes of Langston Hughes, Billie Holiday, Martin Luther King Jr, and Shakespeare. The work also includes police report quotes on recent shootings of American people of color. Sic Pilot: Part II is a plea for justice as much as a tribute to the lives that have been lost.

J Diaz is a Sound Artist moving to England in September of 2017. He designs sound for a variety of mediums—including theatre, dance, and the concert stage. J's concert music has been performed by The City of Tomorrow, members of Roomful of Teeth, Grammy award winning bassist and Bang on a Can All Star Gregg August, violinists Jennifer Choi and Fung Chern Hwei, pianist Stephen Gosling, and cellist Yves Dharamraj. In May of 2017, J released his debut album of electronic sounds, Sic Pilot. The album explores the national ambiguity in J's Mexican American identity.

4. Adam Pierce - The Jay

He once shot a bluejay through the eye, with a ray from the sun
Turned off he opened his head to the sky, and laughed at the god’s almanac

My how I remember that day, in the moon’s great equilibrium;
forests were at every door
and I’d walk out to the darkening ship.

Days tallied on, to the months and to the years
before long, he would bait the jay
and look to it’s eye
shifting in the lilting sun.

Moons would appear, dancing through the neptune blue fields
once again, praying for something more,
for the ire of the night sake was too black.

Found sound, not field recordings. An audio diary of the images, instruments, and nuances of daily life.

I have been active in the avant garde music community in Michigan, USA for over a decade, as a solo artist and a part of many collectives, releasing numerous recorded works through many different formats and performing on a regular basis across a diverse set of gallery spaces/venues. Over the past year I have been focusing solely on recording a work titled: 'Music in the Moon Beam,' which is an audio diary that began the winter of 2017 and will end the spring of 2018. The audio work will be accompanied by a dream diary compiled over the course of the same time.
What interests me is recorded music as sound work, to be absorbed across multiple formats and in diverse environments, not restricted to any contemporary preconceptions of audio consumption.

Works composed primarily with voice, guitar, modular synth, & tape

6. Hagai Izenberg - Chronicle 4

Chronicles is a weekly format of works that attempt to trace the sounds and happenings on a weekly basis and compress them to 4-5 minutes of sonic experience.

Fresh raw materials were collected every week including field recordings, samples from radio & tv and recordings sent by listeners of RadioArt program by Meira Asher on 106fm, who featured the project.

It includes 6 episodes (total of 30 minutes) of 6 weeks from Oct 6th till Nov 17th, 2016 and attempts to capture everyday sounds together with the daily news & events, tragedies and political discourse next to advertisements and entertainment.

Hagai is a sound artist, composer and musician and a founder member of the electronic duo Rendezvous. Born in 1978, he lives and works in Israel. His work focuses on collecting and combining field recordings together with radio broadcasting, using sounds we’re exposed to every day in the public and domestic spheres, often in passing or involuntarily.
The result is a multi-layered restless composition created in real-time, using pre-recorded sound objects and live sources; a compressed sonic experience of our daily lives.

7. Chin Ting Chan – Stargaze

Stargaze is realized using Cycling 74’s Max/MSP 5 program. The entire piece is generated with a sine wave running through various custom-made effect-processing modules; they include amplitude modulation, multi-tap/feedback delay, flanging, reverb, as well as pitch-shifting in the frequency domain using the Fast Fourier Transform procedure. The piece is roughly divided into two parts. The first part uses the same pitch materials from Katachi II for violin and live electronics (2011), where they are solely derived from an ancient game of Go dated from 1846 in Japan. The second part groups the pitches in small sets, sometimes randomizes them and combines them with a quasi-glissando effect.

Hong Kong composer Chin Ting (Patrick) CHAN has been a fellow and guest composer at festivals such as the International Computer Music Conference, IRCAM’s ManiFeste and the Wellesley Composers Conference, with performances in more than twenty countries. He has twice represented Hong Kong abroad in the International Rostrum of Composers and the ISCM World Music Days Festival. He is currently Assistant Professor of Music Composition at Ball State University. He holds a D.M.A. from the University of Missouri–Kansas City as well as degrees from Bowling Green State University and San José State University. He is currently Assistant Professor of Music Composition at Ball State University.

The diagnostic and statistical manual of musical disorders is an expressionistic audio documentary that examines the intellectual and emotional trauma that accompanied the demise of modernism in classical music during the late 20th century. Composers and theorists whose professional rhetoric had elevated compositional technique to the status of triumphalist ideology eventually found themselves adrift in an environment that was indifferent to their mythology of progress, prompting some of them to resist and denounce the inversion of their social and artistic status from avant-garde to garde-en-arrière, and others to abandon the cult of doctrine and adapt to an evolving cultural landscape.

The compositions of David Jason Snow have been performed in concert by the Ensemble Intercontemporain, the New Juilliard Ensemble, the American Brass Quintet, the Harvard Wind Ensemble, the Eastman Percussion Ensemble, and other ensembles throughout the United States, Europe, Asia and Africa. Snow has been the recipient of awards from the National Endowment for the Arts, the Maryland State Arts Council, the ASCAP Foundation, BMI, Musician magazine and Keyboard magazine, and has been an artist resident at Yaddo and the Millay Colony for the Arts. He holds degrees in music composition from the Eastman School of Music and Yale University.

Secret Fantasies is a collection of sound collages based on descriptions of childhood fantasies, remembered by people around the world. People of varying degrees of celebrity have been selected to vocalise the fantasies. These people have been selected according to two criteria: suitable vocabulary on record, and appeal of their voices. The fantasies was released on cassette in 2016 by Calling Cards, a publishing house based in London.

I have for the past year collected stories. I started collecting them to expand my work
beyond my own repository of memories and narratives. In the beginning I was asking
people I knew in conversation if they remembered fantasies they had has children, games they used to play, or memories that they might not have told anyone about. What can they tell about the society in which they come in to existence? Niels Bugge graduated with an MFA from CalArts in 2017, and with a BFA from Glasgow School of Art in 2013. He is currently living in Los Angeles.

The violent, xenophobic riots in Rostock-Lichtenhagen shortly after the unification of
Germany. With Wolfgang Richter and Cornelia Schmalz Jacobsen.

A series of radio programs By Dani Gal and Achim Lengerer. Originally commissioned by Documenta 14.

The radio is an acousmatic instrument. Listeners do not see the origin of the sound,
their experience is shaped both by the their own interpretation, and the manipulation
of the producer in a political system.

Our programs work on the space between documentary and Musique concrète.
Each show focuses on political events that are connected to acoustic events. This
creates an acousmatic documentary where the programs become sound-objects.
The programs response to the 'image saturated society' discourse, by asking what is
the function of sound as a document in times of live video feeds that can be broadcast
by anyone.

Dani Gal (born 1975, Jerusalem) lives and works in Berlin. He studied at the Bezalel
Academy for Art and Design in Jerusalem; the Staatliche Hochschule für Bildende
Künste Städelschule in Frankfurt; and the Cooper Union in New York. His flms and
works have been shown widely, including: Documenta 14, 54th Venice Biennale
(2011), The Istanbul Biennale (2011), The New Museum New York (2012),
Kunsthalle St. Gallen Swizerland (2013), The Jewish museum New York (2014),
Berlinale Forum Expanded (2014), Kunsthaus Zurich (2015) Kunsthalle Wien (2015)
And more.

Achim Lengerer works on political questions of speech and language that he
thematizes in performances, radio plays or spatializes within installations and
publications. Lengerer founded different collaborative projects such as freitagsküche
in Frankfurt a. M. and voiceoverhead, with Dani Gal. Since 2009 Lengerer runs the
Berlin based showroom and publishing house Scriptings. Different Artists are invited
– all of which are working with the formats of script and text within their processes of
production. Lengerer is currently working on his Ph.D. at Goldsmiths, University of
London, UK, on the format of the rehearsal as an actual format for socio-political
negotiations.

It's been 20 years exactly since I created 'Recorded Delivery', which quietly collected sounds of the inner realm of the Post Office in March 1995. Back then I could only use cassettes to capture sound, and there was no internet or digital in my world. Two decades later the technical options are staggering, but simplicity and calm is more in demand than ever before.

Foundsoundscape was inspired by the very first Digital Radio station in the UK, that simply played a recording of a rural location. Radio you could just leave running to add a peaceful ambience to your environment indoors. It heralded a new media paradigm, as digital broadcasting offered more capacity than requred for the first time, and that space needed filling. At the same time on TV, Channel 4 was broadcasting Big Brother live 24hours, and at night I loved to tune-in my analogue TV sets all over the house, and the shed, so I could hear the housemates gently sleeping as I worked through the night. Since then infomercials, and gambling TV have taken over, and I greatly miss that sense of real-time space, that does not demand your attention. Foundsoundscape quietly underscores your environment, by creating new ones from others.

Radio is special as it was the first medium that could be experienced by many people in many places, all at the same time. Foundsoundscape.com is an online radio station that streams live 24hours a day, which can now be broadcast to people all over the globe. Using over 1000 calm & curious location recordings captured by 100+ recordists, the sounds were simply edited, and then played back three at a time at various volumes in shuffle mode, and the result is never the same twice. You often hear the edges of time as files begin or stop playing mid flow. If you listen ever so carefully you can also hear me working in the studio at the end of the garden late at night, as I have a live mic feeding into the mix. I sometimes like to work with tv radio & music playing, to absorb information, give me ideas, create and share. Email me for a shout-out!

My hope is that others will find foundsoundscape enjoyable and leave it running all day & all night long, just like a radio! It's as simple as that, with one click. A salute to serendipity and shared sonic space. Bookmark it. Play it in rooms around the house. Share it . . Take a break . . .
Every day is different.
Happy Daze.

Here we speak to Ralf Wendt and Jackie Bruce of Radio Corax in Halle (Saale) in Germany.

Mobile Radio offer an overview of independent and not-for-profit community, ‘free’, campus, and pirate stations who provide a wealth of material and perspectives outside of the mainstream media orthodoxy. This series constitutes a major retrospective of the work of the radio art network Radia, whose collective mission is to make radio that transcends the borders and boundaries of land and language. Mobile Radio visit each station in turn to discern their motives and inspirations, and explore the work of one of their associated artists. Produced with support from Goethe Institut.

1. Chelidon Frame - Low Rise (Blackout)

“Low Rise (Blackout)” is an eight minute piece, entirely made up by using recordings of medium wave signals and synthesized sounds. The result is a mist of noises in which sometimes a word or a sound pops up, making itself recognizable. All this rarefied magma will eventually concentrate itself in a dense soundscape of radio noises.

Chelidon Frame is an experimental electronic project from Milano, Italy. He works with drones, found objects, shortwave radio signals, prepared guitars and looped soundscapes.
Since 2013, he released songs for the compilations promoted by “IFAR”, dealing with Musique Concrète. In 2014, “Antartica” was chosen for Saout Radio’s installation “here.now.where?”, premiered during the V Marrakech Biennale. He also worked on the first and third edition of “Waywords and Meansigns”, an unabridged recreation of “Finnegans Wake”.
In 2017 is selected for an artistic residence at the San Fedele Centre, Milan.
He released three studio albums and one EP.

2. B D Owens - Dìlseach

Dìlseach is an experimental voice composition; an imagined soundscape from the perspective of a cairn terrier (Dìlseach). This work is dedicated to the memory of Isa MacLeod and Dìlseach, from Kyle of Lochalsh.

B. D. Owens is a multi-disciplinary artist based near Helensburgh. He develops his conceptual ideas while walking and writing. Text, layered interpretation and language play are threads that run through his work. Currently, he is examining and challenging the binary doctrines of: Winners & Losers, Losing & Finding and Sameness & Difference. He is graduating with Distinction from the Art, Society & Publics MFA Programme at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art and Design, November 2017.

4. Gael Tissot – Reflets Vibrations

Reflets-Vibrations (Reflections-vibrations) is the story of a musical development of these two words. Reflets, the first part, is a premonition of what is to come: the sounds of the second part are reused in a much more softer and hidden way. The later part (Vibrations), by contrast, is full of a percussive energy. A danced version of this piece also exists.

Gaël Tissot studied musicology and composition in Toulouse, before being admitted to the composition class of the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique de Lyon. Since 2011, he is a member of the artistic collective éOle in Toulouse (France). He is the author of several international musicological publications. Gaël Tissot was awarded several prizes: Mauricio Kagel 2012 (Vienna) 2nd Prize, Prix résidence 2008 at the Concours international de musique et d’art sonore électroacoustiques de Bourges, etc. His music is played in France as well as in other countries: ISCM World Music Days 2016, Nuits bleues, Tage für neue Musik (Darmstadt), festival Occitània (Toulouse), University of Cologne...

5. Bjorn Hatterud - Prostitute asks God for help, you won't believe what happens next

This is a sound piece made up of sounds from my own library. My goal with the piece is to make a landscape for metaphysical thinking. The title is from an evangelical christian YouTube video. The piece is a small protest against metaphysics and God being reduced to politics and materialistic greed.

Bjørn Hatterud (born 1977) is a Norwegian sound artist, art curator, critic and writer. He has released music in more than 15 countries, and worked with artists like Maja Ratkje, Conrad Schnitzler and Lasse Marhaug. He is an independent art curator, and art critic. His writing on contemporary art, music, sexuality and working class culture has been printed in most Norwegian news papers and cultural journals. Hatterud lives and works in Oslo, Norway.

6. Bláithín MacDonnell - Something, in parts

In a room above a pub, ‘something in parts’ attempts to root narrative in ideas of displacement, storytelling and to rejoin at once disparate but connected parts. The narrative folds and unfolds itself as objects, places and people are assembled and reassembled. Highly descriptive images of locations and rooms attempt to place the audience in the specifics of place both rooting and un-rooting the listener in their current location. The audience is taken into different spaces through layers which appear to be at once fictional and factual.

Bláithín Mac Donnell’s practice explores the relationship between place, person, narrative and fact. Storytelling is used as a way to ground an intangible image and relocate it in the now. The act of storytelling is performed and intertwines with the idea of image making itself so that the narrative becomes images in the mind. The viewer faced with a one person narrative is forced to call upon their own visual realm and remake the image within their own mind so that the space in which the story is told becomes the image. Bláithín completed her BA in Fine Art at Goldsmiths, her MA at The Royal College of Art. Recent performances include The Function Room a gallery above a pub, Tate Modern, a former nucleur bunker in Whitechapel and live on radio for Echo, KtoK fm. Most recently she has presented text pieces at ASP Glasgow.

7. Adam Pierce - The Jay Pt. II

‘The Jay”

He once shot a bluejay through the eye, with a ray from the sun
Turned off he opened his head to the sky, and laughed at the god’s almanac

My how I remember that day, in the moon’s great equilibrium;
forests were at every door
and I’d walk out to the darkening ship.

Days tallied on, to the months and to the years
before long, he would bait the jay
and look to it’s eye
shifting in the lilting sun.

Moons would appear, dancing through the neptune blue fields
once again, praying for something more,
for the ire of the night sake was too black.

Found sound, not field recordings. An audio diary of the images, instruments, and nuances of daily life.

I have been active in the avant garde music community in Michigan, USA for over a decade, as a solo artist and a part of many collectives, releasing numerous recorded works through many different formats and performing on a regular basis across a diverse set of gallery spaces/venues. Over the past year I have been focusing solely on recording a work titled: 'Music in the Moon Beam,' which is an audio diary that began the winter of 2017 and will end the spring of 2018. The audio work will be accompanied by a dream diary compiled over the course of the same time.
What interests me is recorded music as sound work, to be absorbed across multiple formats and in diverse environments, not restricted to any contemporary preconceptions of audio consumption.

Works composed primarily with voice, guitar, m

The track starts with a field recording of my university campus a few days before the fall semester started. Then it goes into a recording of the main square in Krakow, Poland I made while visiting family over the summer, Finally I go back to the recording I started with. I added sound that I thought could compliment these recording: nature sounds at the beginning since the university recording is somewhat quiet, busier sounds in the middle, and a soft end. This track represents all the sounds of our world mixing together to create each person's individual soundscape.

My name is Daniel Jemiolo. My artist name is Jemnastique. I am in the early stages of my music making journey. I make music using field recordings. The field recordings that I use are a combination of personal recordings and ones found on freesound.org. When I make my music, I have a basic idea that I want to try out. I improvise with idea and see what comes out. I only use effects on the sound if I believe that it will enhance the project in some way. In the future I plan to added more produced sounds using the techniques I learn in my computer music classes.

Assembled from phone recordings made in London and Stockholm throughout summer 2015. Commissioned by 'Ears Have Ears' FBi Radio, Sydney, Australia. First aired Oct 2015. Mastered by Giuseppe Ielasi

Astor is the moniker of Mark Harwood, Australian publisher, event curator and sound artist who is now residing in London, United Kingdom. Under this guise he deploys a wide variety of techniques including field recording, musique concrete and electronics. All of these forms are approached with a sense of bypassing the cliches embedded within in order to coerce a sound world which is simultaneously contemporary, foreign, intense, beautiful, unsettling and engaging. Mark has released 2 acclaimed LP’s on Kye (USA) with his third, Lina in Nida on his own Penultimate Press imprint.

A series of radio programs By Dani Gal and Achim Lengerer. Originally commissioned by Documenta 14

The radio is an acousmatic instrument. Listeners do not see the origin of the sound,
their experience is shaped both by the their own interpretation, and the manipulation
of the producer in a political system.

Our programs work on the space between documentary and Musique concrète.
Each show focuses on political events that are connected to acoustic events. This
creates an acousmatic documentary where the programs become sound-objects.
The programs response to the 'image saturated society' discourse, by asking what is
the function of sound as a document in times of live video feeds that can be broadcast
by anyone.

Dani Gal (born 1975, Jerusalem) lives and works in Berlin. He studied at the Bezalel
Academy for Art and Design in Jerusalem; the Staatliche Hochschule für Bildende
Künste Städelschule in Frankfurt; and the Cooper Union in New York. His flms and
works have been shown widely, including: Documenta 14, 54th Venice Biennale
(2011), The Istanbul Biennale (2011), The New Museum New York (2012),
Kunsthalle St. Gallen Swizerland (2013), The Jewish museum New York (2014),
Berlinale Forum Expanded (2014), Kunsthaus Zurich (2015) Kunsthalle Wien (2015)
And more.

Achim Lengerer works on political questions of speech and language that he
thematizes in performances, radio plays or spatializes within installations and
publications. Lengerer founded different collaborative projects such as freitagsküche
in Frankfurt a. M. and voiceoverhead, with Dani Gal. Since 2009 Lengerer runs the
Berlin based showroom and publishing house Scriptings. Different Artists are invited
– all of which are working with the formats of script and text within their processes of
production. Lengerer is currently working on his Ph.D. at Goldsmiths, University of
London, UK, on the format of the rehearsal as an actual format for socio-political
negotiations.

“i think we have something in common” is a modular multimedia work examplifying the transformation and extension of a given structure through a feedback system. It is an ongoing project that isolates intimate parts of the human body and recomposes them digitally. The audiovisual results get published at: https://de.xhamster.com/user/trypophile where they become part of the pornographic maelstrom. The necessary profile, its avatar, the comments and interactions are a vital, ever-developing part of the project. They shed light on certain forms of discourse, the codes of the text and the zoning of the system. The audioversion of the project focuses on three characters of the project and situates them in a drone environment.

Alexander Martinz, born 1979 in Klagenfurt, studied Electroacoustic Composition and Transmedia Art. He teaches at the University of Applied Arts, lives and works as a composer and media artist in Vienna, is the voice of Captain Knife and the bassist of Running Fetus. He is interested in the different logics and traditions of audiovisual media as well as in their correlations. Complex transformations of popcultural material can be considered a foundation of his work.

'Is It Worth It? is a new sound piece which aims to draw attention to the vacuous political rhetoric encompassing modern day environmental issues. By manipulating political speech, distorting natural sounds and creating new synthesised instruments, the work deals with threats facing the environment, the lack of political will to make change and media’s acceptance of mistruths. The effects of climate breakdown, which include erratic seasonal patterns and increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide, have been proven to alter breeding and migrational behaviours of birds, cause bleaching and destruction of coral reefs, and pollute our water and air. This reality has been borne out of an economic structure which exploits finite natural resources in search of unsustainable capital gain.'

This is a collaboration between Allan Whyte and Louise Wilson. Both graduated from Glasgow University with a degree in Zoology. Allan worked for a nearly six years in environmental policy before leaving to pursue a career in the arts. He has recently received a masters degree from Glasgow School of Art in Sound for the Moving Image. Louise moved to the Netherlands to do a short course in sound art and field recording at the Institute of Sonology in the Hague, before commencing a Masters degree in Ecology at Glasgow, from which she will graduate this November. Her research focused on the use of underwater sound as a tool for assessing the health of rivers

Julia Drouhin and Phillipa Stafford, as Sisters Akousmatica, investigate mysterious radio broadcasts known as “the Silent Key”.

Radio: drag the dial across frequencies at any given time, any given place and you will hear a cacophony of sounds. Static, pops and crackles, whistles, the tap, tap tap of the world and the universe going about its electromagnetic business. In between those sounds are stations: broadcasts that are music, news, chatter, cryptic messages and espionage. Stretching out around the world in a network of terrestrial communication, bouncing off the heaviside and landing back again to be collected by radio-listeners - in cars and in kitchens. Sisters Akousmatica are always listening - seeking out the strange broadcasts destined for...? Well, who knows. NM, SK begins to examine some of the recordings they have made in their quest to research “the silent key” - a series of broadcast messages that they discovered in the winter of 2017.

Pip Stafford and Julia Drouhin create curatorial and written international projects concerning collective radio practices, auditory-spatial exploration and the intersection of gender and emergent art forms, to support, promote and cultivate women’s voices in public space. Focusing on the concept of akousma – sound removed from its source – their projects provide a space to examine the possibilities of invisible and ephemeral radiophonic world. They were the recipients of 2016 Next Wave Festival’s Emerging Curator Program presenting Sisters Akousmatica, a women street radio acousmonium with 8 sound artists performing and 2 curators walking for 7 hours in 7 public spaces in Melbourne, in partnership with Liquid Architecture, Signal, 3CR and The Channel.

Sisters Akousmatica has since become an artistic and curatorial umbrella, awarded by the Arts Tasmania’s Artist Investment Program 2016 to produce a retreat for women sound artists, provide workshops (crystal radio and FM transmitter building) and develop new work. Pip and Julia perform as well as an improvised duo Super Occult Cosmophon using radios as instruments, amplified mineral samples, lovingly re-kindled transistor parts and looped sources in acts of sound divination and occult listening to conjure delicate spirit noises and unleash domestic imps. In 2018 Sisters Akousmatica will present XYL as part of Mona Foma in Tasmania.

Boblo Island Redux is a collage of sounds, texts, and music from the larger work of theater called BOBLO. The piece explores the incredible of history of Boblo Island, once home to a grand amusement park that now lies in ruins this small piece of land in Detroit River was once a stop on the underground railroad, used for rum running during prohibition and now home to luxury condos. Boblo Island Redux explores these resonating histories, and the traces of memory left behind. Text by Erin Brandenburg, music by Andrew Penner.

Andrew O'Connor independent radio producer, and sound artist based in Toronto. His work reflects an interest in sound, storytelling, and transmission, and explores these ideas through formal broadcast radio as well as installation art, sound design, and pirate radio. Andrew's work has been featured across the CBC Radio network, syndicated internationally and was most recently presented at the UK International Radio Drama Festival. He currently hosts and produces a weekly pirate radio show called Disco 3000 on his own low watt FM station Parkdale Pirate Radio.

1. Slugs of Eternity – Yugamorph

"Yugamorph" Released by the "Cian Orbe" netlabel

Our names "horridus" and "David M Paganin"

"horridus", the driving force behind "devilsclub", is based in Cascadia, Oregon, USA. horridus has anonymously created experimental electronic music since 2012, although his musical experimentations date back far earlier. Sounds of unbridled complexity emerge from his Hordijk modular system. He distances himself from boring rules, censorship, servitude to money, and the illusion of selling art.

"David M. Paganin" is from West Footscray, Victoria, Australia. The expressive musical themes that interest him relate to human freedom in a post-modern world. Such themes include alienation, psychological repression, the existential vacuum, obsession, rage, absurdity, mourning, regret, neurosis, depression, death and the concept of self. All sounds are intended to be ultimately uplifting, affirmations of human vitality and spirit.

2. Radio Noise Duo - Antennas instead of roots

The track is a result of searching for sound structures based mainly on radio noise. The combination of several analogue radios let us produce interference which is controlled by additional devices. The idea is based on searching for various dependence between real-time radio noise and its connections to space, so it becomes a resonator which affects the track sound each time it's performing.

Radio Noise Duo (Tomasz Misiak and Marcin Olejniczak from Poland) looking for inspiration in electricity, radio noise and amplified everyday objects. Earlier the musicians were associated with groups like kalEka (Misiak) or Monopium (Olejniczak), but they also had some solo projects. Radio Noise Duo is a part of Radio Noise Orchestra- still continuing initiative focused on radio noise in various artistic activities.

3. Vincent Eoppolo - Virtual Pleasures 1

I view my works as a synthesis of various sound art traditions including musique concrete, acousmatic music and radio art.

In my work I strive to present brief moments of the world we are living in. Society in the continuing process of realizing itself. Our relationship with each other, with technology, our morality, spirituality, sexuality, our anxieties and fears. In many ways my works are like sociological and psychological commentaries. My work has been featured on Bernard Clarke's program Nova on RTE's Lyric FM, Phaune Radio from Montpellier, France as well as Radio Art International on CHOQ Radio in Montreal. My works were recently presented at the 2017 New York City Electro-Acoustic Music Festival.

4. Vile Plumage - Daphne and The Baron are Stranded at the Station: Episode 1

“Daphne and The Barron are Stranded at the Station” is the first episode of a soap. A melodrama. A voyage to the depths. The murk. Drug cults. Inter-dimensional beings. Demonic possession. The dark movements of a Parish Council. Grim business in a market town.

Vile Plumage' is a collective consisting of Duke Burnett and Peter 'Bunny' Cropwell , with occasional input from the 'Burselm Community Radio Players'.

Our primary focus is the 'reality oscillation' - there are no straight lines or static points. Strange myths and urban banality exist at precisely the same co-ordinates. The crowd. You think you recognise those faces... but most of them are doppelgangers. We live in an area called The Burselm. Every Sunday we trudge around the streets, sometimes sheltering in Bingo Hall doorways. Always with the record button pushed firmly down. Sound is transferred directly, MAGICALLY to tape. We butter these recordings with paranormal research. Strictly local. Strictly. These sounds are bashed and boiled into radio shapes. Melodrama. Soap opera. Pulp.

5. Marcelo Armani - Bill Dá-U-Oh

Bill Dá-U-Oh is one of the four pieces that integrate the sound installation Concerto Diplomático #0917 (Diplomatic Concert), which was shown between September and November at Adelina Galery, São Paulo, Brazil. This piece is composed of the appropriation of fragments extracted from the youtube channel of Donald Trump's political campaign speeches in which he talks about the construction of the wall on the US-Mexico border. To these fragments, are incorporated sounds and noises recorded by the own artist during a performance that consisted of breaking a wooden wall of 8m of length with blows of ax.

Marcelo Armani (Carlos Barbosa, 1978) is a sound artist, improv musician and electroacoustic producer. He has recorded recordings in Latin America and is currently represented by label Luscinia Discos, Granada, Spain and Adelina Galeria, São Paulo, Brazil. It is projected in the field of visual arts from 2011, participating in shows with a sound installations projects and artistic residencies by countries of Latin America, Europe, Africa and the United States. He currently lives and works in Canoas, RS, where he also works in sound production for film and video art.

6. Patrick Blake - Piatti

An acousmatic piece composed in November of 2015. The piece explores granular sound worlds within conventional musical instruments. Constructed out of recordings of cymbals and electric guitar, transformed and re-purposed, the sounds are layered with field recordings and synthesised tones. Recognisable and familiar sounds can be heard amongst the layers of the piece, developing into distorted and alien sounds.

Patrick Blake is a student at the University of Glasgow, currently pursuing a Masters degree in Electronics with Music. During his studies, within and without the University, he has explored various arenas of experimental music - from jazz and leftfield pop to electro-acoustic performance and composition. His main musical output can be heard with the bands Neuro Trash and Expert Group, both of which have new material to be released online this year.

7. Lia Mazzari – Vigiljoch, Chairlift & Whip

Vigiljoch: Chairlift and Whip is the outcome of two field recordings taken in the Italian Alps in August 2017. It is the first document of her research into whip cracking.

Lia Mazzari is a musician, producer and translator based in London. Her work involves live performance and recorded material using field recordings, cello, whip and text. Her event series Silver Road reinforces interdisciplinary experiments in sound and vision and was based in a steel water tank in South-East London until March 2017.

Much modern art, music, theatre, tv, film, literature and radio is marked by a certain slickness, competence and professionalism I often dislike and masks deeper failings. Due to the availability of software and digital recording equipment it is hard to avoid the temptation to achieve this. I wanted to do something marked by a lack of this. Following Borges, Carlyle etc I did this in the form of a review show of imaginary works of varying quality done as much as possible in one take using no software.

Ten stories for the radio – Five collected stories elaborated into five sound tales

Project by Renato Rinaldi Production and organisation by Hybrida Pieces by Slavek Kwi - Eric la casa - Antje Vowinckel - Ward Weis - Giuseppe Ielasi Funded by Arlef / Agjenzie Regjonâl pe Lenghe Furlane Aired by Frioulian local Radio Onde Furlane

Language is a sound, before being a meaning, and it’s the first human element in a soundscape. The stories have then been selectet according to the ability of the teller in using the language in a dramatic way more than for the stories themselves. For each story we have commissioned a music piece in which the recorded tale had to be the core of the composition. Such transformation could only be possible in the hands of people who doesn’t have access to the meaning of the words. That is why we have chosen musicians the furthest away possible from Friulian geography, culture and language so as to have them relate with a new, as far as this is possible today, sound context.

The Friulian language is a mosaic of units, more often micro-units, territorial, each one with its own linguistic nuances and peculiar sound. The development of such peculiarities is the result of a long and continuous exchange with the environment, which each community entertains while setting its roots in a certain area. Language is a sound, before being a meaning, and it’s the first human element in a soundscape. The project Lenghedivacje endeavours at bringing out the sound of the Friulian language, throughout the collection of recorded material concerning historical or personal events. The stories have then been selected according to the ability of the teller in using the language in a dramatic way more than for the stories themselves. The events told are of course significant also as testimony but are especially extraordinary for the way in which they are “spoken” because they are unique and unique is the language they are using. Inside these stories there is a rich musical potential but in order to bring it out we have pushed the language over the wall of sense. For each story we have commissioned a music piece in which the recorded tale had to be the core of the composition. Such transformation could only be possible in the hands of people who could appreciate exclusively the sound of the language thus deprived of its dramatic element linked to sense. That is why we have chosen musicians the furthest away possible from Friulian geography, culture and language so as to have them relate with a new, as far as this is possible today, sound context. The composers selected for this task are people who routinely work with the sound of language and who use the radio as a means of expression investigating its communication possibilities. Each one of them was asked to work on a music composition starting exclusively form the recorded material assigned to them. The result is a series of compositions created from the phonemes (sound bits) of the Friulian language though enjoyable also away from its understanding.

Collected tales
3a - Ermes Pellizzari - Interview collected in Preone (UD)
He tells his account of the earthquake in september 1976 when he was woken up by a tremour and was then rescued by his dog.

Elaborated into 3b - Linguamoto by Antje Vowinckel - (Germany)
When I listened to the text I didn't understand anything in the beginning. After two or three times of listening I understood some basic Italian words and I got a hint on the general issue of the recording. But felt helpless and wanted to make a completely abstract musical piece by fragmentizing all the speech. But that would also mean to destroy the characteristic expression of the language. And I wanted to keep it! 
 So I decided to keep single words or phrases that seemed to be somehow dramaturgical keywords or phrases to the narration. And instead of manipulating the language I started to feature these keywords by isolating them, I wanted to free certain words that have a particular melody or human expression from its less significant surrounding. So I only kept single words with lots of breaks that evoke a rythm and emphasize their melodical potential. After introducing the material in this way and show its melodical side I felt able to add melodical material that stams all from pitching a single "huu". Now even longer phrases can be heard as musical material and are integrated in a general musical concept. 
I tried to emphasize the musical charasteristics of the Friul language but also tried to destillate and keep dramaturgic turning points of the original story. I found that the concept shows parallels to Manga aesthetic where you have fragments of phrases that are blown up, isolated from the story and integrated in a visual design.

Julia Drouhin and Phillipa Stafford, as Sisters Akousmatica, investigate mysterious radio broadcasts known as “the Silent Key”.

Radio: drag the dial across frequencies at any given time, any given place and you will hear a cacophony of sounds. Static, pops and crackles, whistles, the tap, tap tap of the world and the universe going about its electromagnetic business. In between those sounds are stations: broadcasts that are music, news, chatter, cryptic messages and espionage. Stretching out around the world in a network of terrestrial communication, bouncing off the heaviside and landing back again to be collected by radio-listeners - in cars and in kitchens. Sisters Akousmatica are always listening - seeking out the strange broadcasts destined for...? Well, who knows. NM, SK begins to examine some of the recordings they have made in their quest to research “the silent key” - a series of broadcast messages that they discovered in the winter of 2017.

Pip Stafford and Julia Drouhin create curatorial and written international projects concerning collective radio practices, auditory-spatial exploration and the intersection of gender and emergent art forms, to support, promote and cultivate women’s voices in public space.
Focusing on the concept of akousma – sound removed from its source – their projects provide a space to examine the possibilities of invisible and ephemeral radiophonic world.

They were the recipients of 2016 Next Wave Festival’s Emerging Curator Program presenting Sisters Akousmatica, a women street radio acousmonium with 8 sound artists performing and 2 curators walking for 7 hours in 7 public spaces in Melbourne, in partnership with Liquid Architecture, Signal, 3CR and The Channel.
Sisters Akousmatica has since become an artistic and curatorial umbrella, awarded by the Arts Tasmania’s Artist Investment Program 2016 to produce a retreat for women sound artists, provide workshops (crystal radio and FM transmitter building) and develop new work.

Pip and Julia perform as well as an improvised duo Super Occult Cosmophon using radios as instruments, amplified mineral samples, lovingly re-kindled transistor parts and looped sources in acts of sound divination and occult listening to conjure delicate spirit noises and unleash domestic imps.

In 2018 Sisters Akousmatica will present XYL as part of Mona Foma in Tasmania.

In English-speaking countries, the term "giallo" often refers to the Italian film genre, a particular style of Italian-produced murder mistery thriller-horror film that usually blends the atmosphere and suspense of thriller fiction with elements of horror fiction and erotocism.
The genre developed in the mid-to-late 1960s, peaked in popularity during the 1970s, and subsequently declined over the next few decades. It has been considered to be a predecessor to, and significant influence on, the later American slsher film genre.
The word "Giallo" is Italian for "yellow" The term was derived from a series of cheap paperback mystery novels, popular in post-fascist Italy, which were published with yellow covers.

Uhren is an album of twelve, individually composed, five-minute clocks, totaling one hour. Using field recordings, found sounds, instruments and an alphabet to percussion converter, each piece references time in content or structure. Some of the sonic materials used include recordings of a prehistoric, winter solstice-measuring monument, a mnemonic device for remembering the number of days in months, two cemeteries, an exhibit of extinct animals, a diner at lunchtime and the first five minutes past midnight.

Gregory Kramer is a multidisciplinary artist working with sound and space. Taking inspiration from his archaeological curiosity of abandoned places and his interest in mythology, he searches for ghosts among the ruins and seeks to unearth evidence of forgotten histories through sound. His sound work uses field recordings, found materials, electronics, instruments and radio transmissions. His work was featured in the Sonom International Sound Art Festival, and he recently composed for a dance piece performed at the Setia Darma Museum of Masks and Puppetry in Bali. He has album releases on Impulsive Habitat and International Winners.

Wondering Soul explores radio broadcasting materially through live performance, looking at alternative forms of how audio is broadcasted or made public as well investigating the fringes of radio, its liveness, glitches, and ghostly interferences. This exploration or experimentation forms the backdrop to an investigation of sonic phenomena on the edge of human perception which are often characterised in the human mind as supernatural, weird or the eerie. In particular we are focusing on the ghost and the algorithm as similar forms who's histories might inform an understanding of each other, telling a wider story of broadcast technology and human intimacy.

Alexander Storey Gordon makes drawings, film, text, performative and event based works that articulate the tensions between our bodies, our environment, and others. Crucially, looking at the way these agitations both in the social body and the individual mind are mediated and played back to us through the structures of film and literature.

He graduated with a degree in Printmaking from Grays School of Art in 2010 and has since exhibited widely both within the UK and Internationally. recent exhibitions have included A Apoheny, Intermedia Gallery, CCA, Glasgow, (solo) 2017; Suppose there is A, ICA Singapore (group) 2017; A P A R I Ç Ã O, Phosphorus, Sao Paulo (solo) 2015; and Be Vigilant Dear Friends, Because You Never Know When Your Going To Have Your Eyes Gouged Out, Glasgow Project Rooms 2014 (solo).

Richy Carey is a sound artist and composer. Broadly speaking, his work looks about the way we listen to film, thinking about what the sound of an object or material is, not the sound it makes. He’s currently doing AHRC funded PhD research into the relationship between materiality, language and film sound at Glasgow University.

Recent works and collaborations include Sonorous Objects, with Lauren Gault and Mark Bleakley, Memo to Spring, for Sarah Rose (Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art, 2017), Special Works School, with Bambitchell (Gallery TPW, Toronto, 2017), Forms of Action for Asunción Motions Gordo (CCA Glasgow. 2017), "You're saying exactly how I feel” with Tom Walker (TAP Gallery, 2016), There’s something happening somewhere, with Carrie Skinner (Tron Theatre, Glasgow, 2016) and INCONGRUOUS DIVA for Cara Tolmie and Will Holder (British Art Show, John Hansard Gallery, Southampton, 2016).

Music and the Shadow People is a feature length radio play adapted from a text of the same name by composer William Parker. The radio version was produced by Andrew O'Connor for KunstRadio in Austria. The story takes place in a world that is for the most part ruled, dominated, and being destroyed by HE, a world built on lies, a world out of sync with the realities of the universe. It centers around two main characters Stockyman a revolutionary and wanted man, and Johnson Wordless a conscripted soldier in HIS army, as they both seek passage to the "Tone World".

Andrew O'Connor independent radio producer, and sound artist based in Toronto. His work reflects an interest in sound, storytelling, and transmission, and explores these ideas through formal broadcast radio as well as installation art, sound design, and pirate radio. Andrew's work has been featured across the CBC Radio network, syndicated internationally and was most recently presented at the UK International Radio Drama Festival. He currently hosts and produces a weekly pirate radio show called Disco 3000 on his own low watt FM station Parkdale Pirate Radio.

Radio Concrete is an ongoing experimental sound project which combines field recordings together with radio broadcasting.

It is an exaggerated personal interpretation of sounds that we are exposed to every day in the public and domestic spheres, often in passing or involuntarily.

Fresh raw materials including field recordings of our everyday routine, samples and loops from tv & radio, news editions and advertisements are all gathered on a regular basis and then mixed together on the spot.

Hagai is a sound artist, composer and musician and a founder member of the electronic duo Rendezvous. Born in 1978, he lives and works in Israel.

His work focuses on collecting and combining field recordings together with radio broadcasting, using sounds we’re exposed to every day in the public and domestic spheres, often in passing or involuntarily.

The result is a multi-layered restless composition created in real-time, using pre-recorded sound objects and live sources; a compressed sonic experience of our daily lives.

A series of rainscapes originally created for a rain pavillion designed by the artists Dalziel & Scullion for the Kaust University Campus in Saudi Arabia. All sounds recorded and composed by Mark Vernon.

Rain has a unique ability to sound out and describe the surfaces in our immediate surroundings, making us newly aware of the timbre, dimensions and other sonic qualities of all things in our vicinity. Rainfall on pots and pans, tubs and tins, car bonnets and cafe tables, park benches and rubbish bins, drainpipes and scaffolding, umbrellas and window panes, conservatories and caravans, pavements and microphones...

"I opened the front door, and rain was falling. I stood for a few minutes. Lost in the beauty of it. Rain has a way of bringing out the contours of everything; it throws a coloured blanket over previously invisible things; instead of an intermittent and thus fragmented world, the steadily falling rain creates continuity of acoustic experience."

Filthy Man is an audio recording of a reading of a short story by Chloë Reid.

Chloë Reid is a South African artist currently considering her practice through a socio-physiological framework. Positioned between sociology, biology and psychology, this term refers to the relationship between a society and the habitual physical functions of individuals within that society. She uses film, writing and audio to pare down, repeat and create rhythmical descriptions of objects and actions in an attempt to locate a kind of politics in regular intuitive performance.

3. Luong Hue Trinh - Return ii

I’ve heard stories about Vietnamese refugees, and I also met some of them. During war times, they left the country because of various reasons such as politics, religion...etc. or simply, looking for a better life. During their trip to new lands and over there, they faced many difficulties. After years, people could have a stable living, but not all of them. However, they all share a common feeling. They don’t really belong to anywhere. This piece is dedicated to them. In their minds it should create a kind of imaginary motherland.

1998–2010, after studying at Vietnam National Academy of Music, Luong Hue Trinh graduated with honors in Jazz keyboard. In 2010, electroacoustic music became her main focus. 2015- 2018, she’s been awarding DAAD scholarship for Master Multimedia Composition in Hamburg, Germany.

Her works’ve been exhibited in art spaces/museums, broadcasted on radios, performed in festivals in Vietnam, Thailand, China, Malaysia, Cambodia, Philippines, Indonesia, Japan, Turkey, US, Czech Republic, Germany, Scandinavia, Australia, Canada & UK. Her first album Illusions had a review and was on the list of Best of 2016: Album of the Year by Avant Music News in San Francisco, US.

Synopsis - This is an experimental piece based on the Number Station phenomenon. Placing the listener in a Croft in the Highlands of Scotland, you listen to an array of unknown shortwave signals from all corners of Scotland's mythical Moors and Munros. From an ancient world full of legends and folklore, where witches, wolves, unicorns and
giants roam, what anomalies will occur?

6. Christoffer Schunk - Did You

This is the first track of Until No Longer Effective: an album of experimental music utilizing hundreds of fart samples collected over two years. The album can be considered a type of slow- change music based on the listener’s attitude and perception of the sounds. What results from continued exposure to something like a fart and how does accompanying noise influence the perception of it? If it is immediately grotesque or funny, how long does it take for different opinions to form? What does this say about humor? Can fart acclimation relate to societal or political acclimation?

Christoffer Schunk is a multidisciplinary composer and performance artist based in Los Angeles. His works involve voice, common and uncommon instruments, field recordings, electronics, and acting. His pieces have been featured nationally and internationally at SEAMUS, MUSLAB, the Ars Electronica Forum Wallis Festival, the Brooklyn Film Festival, Sound Thought Festival, the Iron Composer Competition, REDCAT, Human Resources LA, the wulf and on I Care If You Listen, and have been performed by Conceptual Soundproductions Budapest, Santa Clarita Master Chorale, the CalArts New Century Players, Black House Collective, and the UC Santa Barbara Symphony Orchestra.

7. Eleanor Wright - Still Solar Wind

Considering the universe as a complex network of vibrations, we reposition ourselves (as a body of waves) somewhere amongst the macro (cosmic) and micro (atomic) frequencies of our environment.We seek to find harmony and resonance in the symphony of energies that surround us, and we can be made aware of the omnipresent vibrations with the understanding of sound waves as pervasive spiritual entities: eclectic but united in their nature. This piece proposes a moment of resonance where radio is the domestic platform that these measureless vibrations can assume

Former art student and current physics student, I hope to eliminate the exclusive language the two fields use to communicate their essential comments and explorations of the universe, and cross pollinate the two in hope to share and achieve a higher consciousness.

I have been writing and producing a weekly series of musical science fiction radio plays for children. They are broadcast on Radio Sunnyside, 101.5 FM, here in my hometown of Flagstaff Arizona. The show is called "Mary Farfisa's Outer Space Radio Theater." Mary Farfisa is an eight-year-old space-girl who travels the Galaxies on her space-horse, Briscoe. Mary goes from planet to planet, searching for “songs and sounds and music and noise” to share with the rest of the Universe. Mary catches the songs and sounds and music and noise in her “audio lasso.” Then she brings them to the Listener’s Library – an intergalactic collection of sounds, curated by music-loving super-beings called the Listeners. Mary’s adventures are exciting, funny and fun. But each episode also teaches something about a certain style of music, or deals with some aspect of learning music that kids can relate to. The show was created by me. I write, produce (and even act!) in every episode. Original music and sound effects are created for each episode. The art and posters that accompany each show are painted by me. The plays are performed by local actors and musicians, like Cara Alboucq, who plays the role of Mary Farfisa.

All the shows can be listened to at mixcloud.com/maryfarfisashow.

And you can find out more about the show at facebook.com/maryfarfisa.

An anonymous submission of unknown provenance. An uncensored artefact of outsider radio. This programme documents the audio inventiveness of two hyperactive young girls across two sides of a C90 cassette tape. K & C radio explores the inner psyche of its two willing participants revealing obsessions with nuns, the Argos catalogue, Gremlins and poo, lots of poo. For the first time ever this radio show made solely for the entertainment of an audience of two will be heard across the airwaves and across time. K & C – if you’re listening, and I hope you are - I’d just like to let you know that – I need a poo!

Upward Citizen is an experimental sound project recorded in the city of Santiago, Chile in November 2016.

This work proposes a vertical crossing, which accounts for the link between the release of the being and action of climbing. By means of the registration of the different layers of the city (that begins in the underground transport and ends at the top of Cerro Santa Lucía, immersed in the middle of the city) this proposal pretends to show the different sonorities to which we are exposed within the contemporary city and how it can mutate depending on the place and height to which we are.

Ignacio Pereira Molina a.k.a Espereira (b. 1992) is a chilean-based graphic designer and media artist. Since his formal studies in design, his work has been changing into more experimental and conceptual areas, working the image as a whole in various techniques such as photography, engraving and new media. Its imaginary is based mainly on the human being and its relation with the habitat; carrying out interdisciplinary projects that try to unveil the existence of man.

The Lady In Her Dimensions is a series of writings describing a woman – a relationship, a past love – but explored through theories on the construct of the universe. It allows the unknown to become potential. The real to become magical. It presents a different angle in which to interpret the feelings of loss, guilt, want and regret, and how all things are intimately connected.

The piece comes from a collaborative project made with my brother, involving the creation of twelve experimental pieces of writing – stories, plays, poems, scribblings – each developed from the starting point of a photograph.

Jolyon Houghton is a 28 year old actor and writer from West London, who studied Collaborative & Devised Theatre at the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama. His writing is a mixture of humour and misfortune, in the form of plays, poems and short stories.

1. Garrett Tiedemann - Last Thursday (in Fragments) - Episode 6 – Limitation

In 2015 Don Chambers hosted "a music and other things entertainment" each month called The Last Thursday. Each month had its own theme and governed not only the types of content, but way of presentation for the evening. These evenings lived and died in the moment with very little social media promotion or archiving. In series 2 of The White Whale we offer snippets of these evenings; providing first glimpses beyond the nights of what went down and why their existence foregoing online permanence is important. Visit http://www.donchambersmusic.com/ for music and more.

Garrett Tiedemann is a radio producer, journalist, filmmaker and composer. He works for American Public Media covering the breadth and depth of composed music for YourClassical and Classical Minnesota Public Radio while also producing films, music videos, music and the podcast The White Whale via his production company CyNar Pictures. As a freelancer, he has lent production and compositional approaches to the podcasts Vanishing Ink, Here Be Monsters, The Organist, ARRVLS, Life of the Law, and Top Score. Additionally, he manages production and strategy for the oral history/storytelling project SisterStory.

2. Hagai Izenberg - Chronicle 2

Chronicles is a weekly format of works that attempt to trace the sounds and happenings on a weekly basis and compress them to 4-5 minutes of sonic experience. Fresh raw materials were collected every week including field recordings, samples from radio & tv and recordings sent by listeners of RadioArt program by Meira Asher on 106fm, who featured the project. It includes 6 episodes (total of 30 minutes) of 6 weeks from Oct 6th till Nov 17th, 2016 and attempts to capture everyday sounds together with the daily news & events, tragedies and political discourse next to advertisements and entertainment.

Hagai is a sound artist, composer and musician and a founder member of the electronic duo Rendezvous. Born in 1978, he lives and works in Israel.

Dreamscape is an exploration of how sounds in dreams can be translated aurally to form a narrative that could potentially aid in the understanding of the self. It aims to provide the audience with a sonic experience of the artist's self-portrait as told by his dreams.

Jaxton Su (b. 1988) is a Singaporean Visual Artist, based in Glasgow, UK. He enjoys experimenting with the use of colours in portraying peculiar narratives that delve into the notions of archetypes and the imaginary. Taking inspirations from the natural environment, Jaxton often creates bizarre dreamlike worlds with a whimsical composition of elements to bring across his ideas. Working with a variety of different mediums such as painting and installation, he hopes to create a visual utopia that could form a resonation with others and spark an imagination.

4. Jamie Livingstone – Iteration

Puddle Rainbows Missed is a poetry EP by Jamie Livingstone produced by future garage and techno DJs Blackboxx and Acidtone. It centres around the idea of the Mandelbrot Set and iterative patterns. How do these forms commune with the brittle, coarse and tender everyday muck? What are people up to with cucumbers? Who knows anyway? It’s poems mixed with samples. It’s sound and shape.

I started writing poetry when Mr Harrington read us Yeats and almost stopped when I heard what age he lost his virginity.
Yeats, that is, not Mr Harrington.
Who knows what he gets up to.
I am 26. Yeats was 31. I live in Oban. I have no children. I have a full set of teeth.

Jean François CAVRO - Compositeur – Artiste du son - Cartographe sonore Il est diplômé du Conservatoire National de Région de Lyon (CNR - classe de Denis Dufour) et du onservatoire National Supérieur de Musique de Lyon (CNSM - classe de Philippe Manoury et Denis Lorrain), en composition instrumentale, électroacoustique et informatique musicale. Il a également suivi le cursus de DEA musicologie du XXième siècle à l’IRCAM
(Institut de Recherche et de Coordination Acoustique/Musique – Paris. Il est actuellement étudiant en Master II musicologie, mémoire de recherche sur la cartographie sonore urbaine. Il intervient régulièrement depuis plusieurs années dans le cadre de projets en collaboration avec l’Education Nationale : Projet petite enfance, Ville de Lyon – projet sur l’ Arc Jurassique Franco/Suisse – Lycée du 1er Film Lyon - colloque 2005 “la Musique, le
Son et la Ville” – Lycée Courbet, Belfort – Lycée Technique de l’Horlogerie, collège et établissements primaires de la ville de Morteau – Centre de Linguistique Appliquée Besançon – Ecole Nationale des Beaux Arts de Limoges – Intervenant son à l’École
Nationale Supérieure de Cinéma Louis Lumière – La Plaine St Denis, Cité du Cinéma.

Il se présente comme artiste du sonore en développant parallèlement à son travail de composition un vaste projet sur les paysages sonores, mémoire vivante du monde contemporain. Ce travail sonore s’inscrit dans une réalité urbaine. Son approche de musicien ouvre un champ autre à la lecture classique d’une ville : il nous révèle les sons et la voix de la ville. Par une exploration passant par la collecte d’instantanés sonores, il élabore une cartographie nouvelle. Elle alterne des échelles de sons diverses partant du fond sonore général d’un hall de gare jusqu’au détail comme la voix d’un marchand ambulant dans la rue... vrai puzzle ou kaléidoscope sonore renvoyant aux multiples facettes et images urbaines. Il définit la ville non seulement comme un lieu mais aussi comme une accumulation de mouvements pluriels et d’expériences simultanées. La ville est un véritable palimpseste où se lisent les couches de l’histoire : les bâtiments gardent en eux une mémoire. Ils sont les témoins d’une époque, d’un temps passé, présent ou futur. A l’inverse l’environnement sonore est oublié, fugace, éphémère. Jean François CAVRO fixe cette mémoire sonore en perpétuelle transformation et nous permet de l’analyser et de mieux comprendre ainsi notre société. Celle ci est de plus en plus urbaine, les sons industriels remplacent un par un les sons naturels. Les villes s’étalent dans une péri- urbanisation.

Jean François CAVRO nous éclaire, par sa démarche, sur l’évolution de ce phénomène. Par ses constats et questionnements il peut donner des réponses et des
orientations à suivre pour les acteurs de la ville. Par son travail minutieux de construction et de déconstruction sonore, le compositeur nous pose ainsi les questions : “Aujourd’hui où vivons nous et Que devons nous écouter ?”. Cette simple question constitue peut-être tout l’enjeu d’une composition musicale conçue dans une réalité sonore urbaine : témoigner de l’identité sonore des villes. Une telle prise de conscience peut sans doute contribuer à révéler la vigueur des lieux dans lequel nous vivons. Il est lauréat de plusieurs résidences et concours nationaux et internationaux.

1. Timo Kahlen – Essence of Art: Part 1

A conceptual and personal exploration of the essence of art: both thesis and anti-thesis. The essence of art is to make mistakes. True art is (but) deception. Trust me, I'm an artist.

Sound sculptor and media artist Timo Kahlen (*1966) has been creating eye- and earcatching, temporary media sculptures and sound installations for more than 25 years.

2.Suzy Angus and Janieann McCracken - Pathfoot Sounds

This year Stirling University celebrates its 50th birthday. We created a sound art installation reflecting the architecture and fabric of the original university building, Pathfoot, as well as staff and students, past and present. The whole project took about a year and the final piece takes the listener through the front door at the start of a day, all the way up and through until sunset.

3. Stuart Russell - Search for the Spirit

Some embrace the spirit as a source of comfort but what exactly is this ethereal
entity? Believers and non-believers search for the elusive human spirit. Poetry
by Stephanie Turner. Produced by Stuart Russell with Eyebrow Media.

past) BBC Scotland. At 22, he was one of the youngest in the country to receive
a British Empire Medal for services to the arts, one of many impressive
accolades.

4. Seth Rozanoff – Preachersong

Preachersong (2012) was realized in the electronic music studios at the Sonic Arts Research Center in Belfast. Audio recordings, which I collected as I walked through the town centre streets of Sao Paulo, were freely arranged, through a process of reflective listening in the studio. My approach in the studio can be viewed as an improvisation; I aimed to create collisions of contrasting environmental sounds. These contrasts seemed to highlight a new intimacy between individuals and their environment. For example, the opening 'character', a preacher wandering through the praça de sé, introduces the listener to a new developing environment.

BIO:
Seth Rozanoff is currently living in Glasgow, where he received a Phd at the University of Glasgow. He previously lived in Belfast, Amsterdam, and Sao Paulo after leaving New York City in 2010. Rozanoff’s work sets up a range of performative, musical, and compositional relationships. The resulting interaction is managed through either a range of scores, studio techniques, and live electronic performance. Future projects include, a series of solo works for drum machine, sampler, laptop, and video; a work for percussion and electronics with Ruud Roelofsen; and a piano and electronics work for Adam Tendler.

5. Selina Springett - Profits [or] Loss

This audio piece is from an installation work adapted for radio. It invites the listener to contemplate the conflicting roles of nature, consumerism and an increasingly mechanised, distanced society. It combines field recordings from urban Australian bushland(forest that borders residential city areas) and polyvocal narrations of the net value of the 60 richest companies and the 100 richest individuals in the world, as well as their profit (or loss) of a single day’s trading. Various drones, factory and machine noises as well as the sounds of an Australian supermarket self-checkout evoke a sense the world’s current trajectory towards a post human/post natural existence.

Selina Springett is a Sydney based sound and installation artist and academic. Her work explores ways of representing environmental and social issues through installations, radio, community and public art works. These have been shown locally and internationally, and have won a number of awards.

Welcome to the Art & Podcast, a podcast that asks "What do you do?" and "Can that be called Art?". Hosted by artist and performer Ronan Mcmahon, and loyally assisted by
producer Roy Shearer, each episode takes the listener on a conversational tour of a different occupation. We delve into how each guest perceives art and creativity, and to what extent both relate to their day job, all whilst taking a nice walk during their lunch break.

In this episode we ask: can Nannying be called an art-form?

We met up with Giulia, who runs a nanny agency in Berlin, to find out. Ronan risks life and limb once again, being swallowed and spat out by a dragon in the quest for scientific rigour.

Ronan Mcmahon is a stage and radio comedy performer with a passion for the convergence of science and art. He regularly collaborates with Naomi O Kelly as the clowning, storytelling, puppetry, live music and social satire partnership, Two Detectives.

Ten stories for the radio – Five collected stories elaborated into five sound tales

Project by Renato Rinaldi Production and organisation by Hybrida Pieces by Slavek Kwi - Eric la casa - Antje Vowinckel - Ward Weis - Giuseppe Ielasi Funded by Arlef / Agjenzie Regjonâl pe Lenghe Furlane Aired by Frioulian local Radio Onde Furlane

Language is a sound, before being a meaning, and it’s the first human element in a soundscape. The stories have then been selectet according to the ability of the teller in using the language in a dramatic way more than for the stories themselves. For each story we have commissioned a music piece in which the recorded tale had to be the core of the composition. Such tranformation could only be possible in the hands of people who doesn’t have access to the meaning of the words. That is why we have chosen musicians the furthest away possible from Friulian geography, culture and language so as to have them relate with a new, as far as this is possible today, sound context. The title literally means cow tongue but it refers to a edible plant: Rumex patientia, known as patience dock, "garden patience", "herb patience", or "monk's rhubarb", is a herbaceous perennial plant species of the genus Rumex, belonging to the family Polygonaceae. In spring it is often consumed as a leaf vegetable in Southern Europe.

The Friulian language is a mosaic of units, more often micro-units, territorial, each one with its own linguistic nuances and peculiar sound. The development of such peculiarities is the result of a long and continuous exchange with the environment, which each community entertains while setting its roots in a certain area. Language is a sound, before being a meaning, and it’s the first human element in a soundscape. The project Lenghedivacje endeavours at bringing out the sound of the Friulian language, throughout the collection of recorded material concerning historical or personal events. The stories have then been selected according to the ability of the teller in using the language in a dramatic way more than for the stories themselves. The events told are of course significant also as testimony but are especially extraordinary for the way in which they are “spoken” because they are unique and unique is the language they are using. Inside these stories there is a rich musical potential but in order to bring it out we have pushed the language over the wall of sense. For each story we have commissioned a music piece in which the recorded tale had to be the core of the composition. Such transformation could only be possible in the hands of people who could appreciate exclusively the sound of the language thus deprived of its dramatic element linked to sense. That is why we have chosen musicians the furthest away possible from Friulian geography, culture and language so as to have them relate with a new, as far as this is possible today, sound context. The composers selected for this task are people who routinely work with the sound of language and who use the radio as a means of expression investigating its communication possibilities. Each one of them was asked to work on a music composition starting exclusively form the recorded material assigned to them. The result is a series of compositions created from the phonemes (sound bits) of the Friulian language though enjoyable also away from its understanding.

Collected tales
4a - Vilma Boria - Interview collected in Socchieve (UD)
Her life in a farm by the river, she tells about how the water in May “falls in love”.

Elaborated into 4b - iiiooOo by Ward Weis - (Belgium)
i don't understand any word of the original recording .... so, i took the first and last word of the lady an did some spectral analyse on it.
I could generate new sonic material from this research. it was my scope to make the final edit as long as the original material ... so my piece is also 10.43 ( cutted the silences at the begin and end ) where the original sounded quite hard, my version became less harsh, much more stretched and sound as a choir not speaking words only syllables instead.

Renato Rinaldi studied acting, composition and electronic music. He has worked extensively in theater, first as an actor and then as a sound artist. As a musician he has composed music for theatre, radio plays and documentaries, video and sound installations. He is interested in composition applied to the relationship between sound /environment. He has also produced radio plays, documentaries and radio reportages, aired by Radio RAI and Radio France.

1. Adam Paroussos - Mvt. II: Bamboo Mustard

Cosmophonic Fantasia: Mvts I-III (OST)
Cosmophonic Fantasia is predominately a musique concrète film in three movements: I Audio Field, II Bamboo Mustard and III Fractal Reprise. This piece explores the metaphysical and expressive nature of sound and inspired by Sonata form. ‘Audio Field’ uses a collection of montaged film and sound samples and ‘remixes’ them together to turn the everyday experiences of sound into a dream-like sonic experience. Mvt 2,‘Bamboo Mustard’ uses collected fragments of live performances to piece together the journey of this character - Bamboo Mustard. The final movement Fractal Reprise concludes the film, exploring the underlying structures within the natural and sound.

Adam Paroussos is an interdisciplinary sound artist and designer, just graduated from Central Saint Martins, BA Performance Design and Practice. His work is rooted in performative, collaborative and experimental approaches with sound and music. Under his Nova award-nominated alter-ego ‘Bamboo Mustard’, he performs with DIY instruments in a sound costume in the cracks and corners of London. Adam works across theatre, live art and film including composing the soundtrack for Andrea Zimmerman’s ‘Erase and Forget’ documentary and Jotdown’s physical theatre show ‘Haidar’.

2. Hagai Izenberg - Chronicle 3

Chronicles is a weekly format of works that attempt to trace the sounds and happenings on a weekly basis and compress them to 4-5 minutes of sonic experience. Fresh raw materials were collected every week including field recordings, samples from radio & tv and recordings sent by listeners of RadioArt program by Meira Asher on 106fm, who featured the project. It includes 6 episodes (total of 30 minutes) of 6 weeks from Oct 6th till Nov 17th, 2016 and attempts to capture everyday sounds together with the daily news & events, tragedies and political discourse next to advertisements and entertainment.

Hagai is a sound artist, composer and musician and a founder member of the electronic duo Rendezvous. Born in 1978, he lives and works in Israel. His work focuses on collecting and combining field recordings together with radio broadcasting, using sounds we’re exposed to every day in the public and domestic spheres, often in passing or involuntarily. The result is a multi-layered restless composition created in real-time, using pre-recorded sound objects and live sources; a compressed sonic experience of our daily lives.

3. Jaxton Su Jingxiang - Dreamscape: Prison break

Dreamscape is an exploration of how sounds in dreams can be translated aurally to form a narrative that could potentially aid in the understanding of the self. It aims to provide the audience with a sonic experience of the artist's self-portrait as told by his dreams.

Jaxton Su (b. 1988) is a Singaporean Visual Artist, based in Glasgow, UK. He enjoys experimenting with the use of colours in portraying peculiar narratives that delve into the notions of archetypes and the imaginary. Taking inspirations from the natural environment, Jaxton often creates bizarre dreamlike worlds with a whimsical composition of elements to bring across his ideas. Working with a variety of different mediums such as painting and installation, he hopes to create a visual utopia that could form a resonation with others and spark an imagination.

In 2015 Don Chambers hosted "a music and other things entertainment" each month called The Last Thursday. Each month had its own theme and governed not only the types of content, but way of presentation for the evening. These evenings lived and died in the moment with very little social media promotion or archiving. In series 2 of The White Whale we offer snippets of these evenings; providing first glimpses beyond the nights of what went down and why their existence foregoing online permanence is important.

Garrett Tiedemann is a radio producer, journalist, filmmaker and composer. He works for American Public Media covering the breadth and depth of composed music for YourClassical and Classical Minnesota Public Radio while also producing films, music videos, music and the podcast The White Whale via his production company CyNar Pictures. As a freelancer, he has lent production and compositional approaches to the podcasts Vanishing Ink, Here Be Monsters, The Organist, ARRVLS, Life of the Law, and Top Score. Additionally, he manages production and strategy for the oral history/storytelling project SisterStory.

5. Jamie Livingstone - The Best of a Bad Bunch of Swimmers

Puddle Rainbows Missed is a poetry EP by Jamie Livingstone produced by future garage and techno DJs Blackboxx and Acidtone. It centres around the idea of the Mandelbrot Set and iterative patterns. How do these forms commune with the brittle, coarse and tender everyday muck? What are people up to with cucumbers? Who knows anyway? It’s poems mixed with samples. It’s sound and shape.

I started writing poetry when Mr Harrington read us Yeats and almost stopped when I heard what age he lost his virginity.
Yeats, that is, not Mr Harrington.
Who knows what he gets up to.
I am 26. Yeats was 31. I live in Oban. I have no children. I have a full set of teeth.

Alvin Lucier’s “I am sitting in a room” is not just a key work in the history of sound art but also and primordially an example of sonic conceptual art. The piece has often been analyzed from a phenomenological approach, grounded in how sound builds our perception of a space and how, conversely, that same space shapes the sounds we hear when we inhabit it. But Lucier’s piece has a lot more to say. “I am sitting in a room” can be understood as a sonic-work about self-presence and the problematic notion of a speaking subject that, to put in the words of Jacques Derrida, “hears himself speak”.

Lucier himself recalls that one day Cornelius Cardew described the piece as some sort of suicidal act: a sonic device through which his author was trying to make himself disappear by means of erasing his voice. To put it less dramatically, it could be said that Lucier’s famous piece is a brilliant trick of acousmatic escapism. Where did Lucier go? Is he still in the room after his speech is no longer understandable? Has he turned himself into a resonant ghost?

“Am I sitting in a room?” pays homage to Lucier’s almost homonymous work and, at the same time, is conceived as a sonic commentary to the strong conceptual operation that underlies the original piece. The central idea is reversing the process through which Lucier’s piece was created. The voice explaining the process cannot be heard until the piece is close to its end. What we hear is not a voice disappearing but a recorded speech that progressively becomes clearer and easier to understand. Someone seems to be appearing. But does this acousmatic subject (this acousmêtre as Michel Chion would call it) appear completely? Is he fully revealed? The voice sounds strange, like if someone is talking backwards. And, after all, a recorded voice is always a simulacrum of a presence, a ghost. Just as Lucier’s piece couldn’t erase his presence completely, the acousmêtre behind this piece will not succeed in
making himself fully present. So… is he really sitting in a room?

“Am I sitting in a room?” is not just the result of an "artistic attempt" but also and
primarily an exercise carried out in the framework of my doctoral research on Lucier's piece. When I started working on my philosophy thesis I soon realized
about the fact that "I am sitting in a room" seems to defy a purely theoretical
approach and demands a practical and truly sonic engagement. This is the
reason why, in order to address issues such as those of presence, resonance,
appearance and disappearance, I decided to record this "reversed" and also “interrogative” version of the piece. The final aim of this exercise is not so much
answering the questions that Lucier’s piece seems to raise but to reformulate
them by asking them again in a reverse form.

The full text that will be reversed and repeatedly played back into the room and
finally reversed again when the process is completed is the following one:

I am sitting in a room different from the one you are in now. I am recording the sound of my speaking voice and I am going to reverse it before I play it back into the room again and again. By doing this the resonant frequencies of the room will reinforce themselves and any semblance of my speech, with perhaps the exception of rhythm, will be destroyed. After that I will reverse the recording resulting from this process. What you have been hearing from the very beginning are the natural resonant frequencies of the room articulated by speech. I don’t regard this activity simply as a tribute to Alvin Lucier’s “I am sitting in a room” but as a way to reverse his trick of acousmatic escapism. Just as he seemingly tried to make himself disappear I am trying to do the opposite. And just as Lucier’s piece couldn’t erase his presence
completely this one will not succeed in making me fully present.

French sound artist, activist and musician Gaël Segalen aka IhearU has a very diverse experience in sound and is focused on polylistening, dissonance and new music, as well as to create people’s encounters in improvisation spaces. She believes all the noises she has collected or manipulated, can coexist in one inclusive spirit, here and now, and transposes the complexity of the world into electroacoustic and polyrhythmic soundscapes, bruitisme and DFR (Danceable Field Recording) compositions. The reconciliation of all the noises she has collected from her travels is manipulated in the studio, in one inclusive spirit, here and now.

3. Bláithín MacDonnell - Something in Parts

In a room above a pub, ‘something in parts’ attempts to root narrative in ideas of displacement, storytelling and to rejoin at once disparate but connected parts. The narrative folds and unfolds itself as objects, places and people are assembled and reassembled. Highly descriptive images of locations and rooms attempt to place the audience in the specifics of place both rooting and un-rooting the listener in their current location. The audience is taken into different spaces through layers which appear to be at once fictional and factual.

Bláithín Mac Donnell’s practice explores the relationship between place, person, narrative and fact. Storytelling is used as a way to ground an intangible image and relocate it in the now. The act of storytelling is performed and intertwines with the idea of image making itself so that the narrative becomes images in the mind. The viewer faced with a one person narrative is forced to call upon their own visual realm and remake the image within their own mind so that the space in which the story is told becomes the image. Bláithín completed her BA in Fine Art at Goldsmiths, her MA at The Royal College of Art. Recent performances include The Function Room a gallery above a pub, Tate Modern, a former nucleur bunker in Whitechapel and live on radio for Echo, KtoK fm. Most recently she has presented text pieces at ASP Glasgow.

5. Garrett Tiedemann - Last Thursday (in Fragments) Episode 5: Interpretation

In 2015 Don Chambers hosted "a music and other things entertainment" each month called The Last Thursday. Each month had its own theme and governed not only the types of content, but way of presentation for the evening. These evenings lived and died in the moment with very little social media promotion or archiving. In series 2 of The White Whale we offer snippets of these evenings; providing first glimpses beyond the nights of what went down and why their existence foregoing online permanence is important. Visit http://www.donchambersmusic.com/ for music and more.

Garrett Tiedemann is a radio producer, journalist, filmmaker and composer. He works for American Public Media covering the breadth and depth of composed music for YourClassical and Classical Minnesota Public Radio while also producing films, music videos, music and the podcast The White Whale via his production company CyNar Pictures. As a freelancer, he has lent production and compositional approaches to the podcasts Vanishing Ink, Here Be Monsters, The Organist, ARRVLS, Life of the Law, and Top Score. Additionally, he manages production and strategy for the oral history/storytelling project SisterStory.

6. ETC - Giallo

In English-speaking countries, the term "giallo" often refers to the Italian film genre, a particular style of Italian-produced murder mystery thriller-horror film that usually blends the atmosphere and suspense of thriller fiction with elements of horror fiction and eroticism.
The genre developed in the mid-to-late 1960s, peaked in popularity during the 1970s, and subsequently declined over the next few decades. It has been considered to be a predecessor to, and significant influence on, the later American slasher-film genre.
The word "Giallo" is Italian for "yellow" The term was derived from a series of cheap paperback mystery novels, popular in post-fascist Italy, which were published with yellow covers.

The ETC project combining electro-acoustic experiments and synthetic modulations.

Soft noise, the collateral effect of an urban environment on individuals from a post-industrial society or as many opportunities to transcribe the unspeakable to the sound plane, et cetera et cetera, the worst remains to come ...
ETC has toured in Europe, China cetera et cetera

7. Blake Degraw – Mantra

Mantra is an adaptation of William S. Burroughs’ Pistol Poem No. 3. It is part of a series of adaptations in which the composer explores methods of creating sonic analogues of selected poems, as opposed to setting their text to music. All parts recorded by Blake DeGraw and Chloe Wicks.

Blake DeGraw is a composer, performer, bandleader, and sound-installation artist currently residing in Seattle, WA. He studied euphonium performance at the Las Vegas Academy of Performing Arts, and currently studies modern composition at Cornish College of the Arts. He is the director and conductor of FHTAGN, an experimental chamber ensemble that focuses on extremes in spatial dispersion, as well as indeterminacy operations, free improvisation, and alternative forms of conduction within those extremes. DeGraw is also the co-founder of Plancklength, a sound-art collective that explores interactive sound production through installation work and instrument creation.

Please mind the gap is the first episode of a new monthly show by Mari Moriko broadcasting on Cashmere Radio. It is an audio collage of sounds from all ages that look toward a feminist future where power structures of all kinds are questioned and dismantled. but how far is this a western-centric ideal and how does it translate to non-western cultures (my focus is on japan) where the binary notion of gender is woven into the language itself. synthesised text-to-speech voices read out texts, manifestos, cd sleeves, user comments, conversations and more, underscored with beautiful pieces by women in electronic music. each show concludes with an episode of “sumatto” (smut – erotic literature for women by women), read out almost unintelligibly by a japanese text-to-speech voice.

A specially re-recording version for Radiophrenia of a live hörspiele work performed at Apologies In Advance #7 (V22 Louise House, Forest Hill) on 19th August 2017. A third and final iteration of the piece is being exhibited as a sound installation at the Angus-Hughes gallery in Hackney throughout November.

James Torrance is an audio engineer and occasional radio producer, often found dabbling in the more confused corners of sound art and non-music. He has spent a number of years documenting sounds from London’s modernist housing estates and regularly collaborates with artists and film-makers. Amongst other meanderings, his current solo work presents a bricolage of found sound, phonography and hörspiele oddities.

Plus, of course, a certain Mr Momus spinning the scrapbook, spool tools, glue pot and scissors.

During 2013 Momus created a series of radiophonic programmes for Newcastle radio station BasicFM entitled Hearspool. Mesmeric, evocative, and made in the tradition of German neue hoerspiel.

Momus is a Scot who makes songs, books and art. He lives between Europe and Japan.

Mark Vernon – Deep Sleep Trawler

Synopsis:

A composed dreamscape created from a series of interviews about nightmares and dreams. The voices are combined with atmospheric soundbeds created from processed electronic sounds and field recordings to create a form of non-narrative radio play where dream logic rules. The piece is in part an homage to Barry Bermange and Delia Derbyshire's 1964 radio work, 'Inventions for Radio: Dreams'. This piece also includes readings of extracts from the dream diaries of artist, shamen and dream interpreter, Kate Walters, interviews made by Radio Royal volunteers and interviews with members of the FDAMH arts and media group. Thank you to everyone who took part.

Biography
Mark Vernon is a Glasgow-based artist whose work exists on the fringes of sound art, music and broadcasting. At the core of his practice lies a fascination with the intimacy of the radio voice, environmental sound, obsolete media and the reappropriation of found recordings. A keen advocate of radio as an art form, he co-runs Glasgow art radio station, Radiophrenia and has produced programmes for stations internationally. He has published his solo and collaborative music projects through labels including Staalplaat, Ultra Eczema, Entr’acte, 3Leaves, Staubgold and Gagarin Records, as well as a series of small CDR and LP editions on his own meagre resource imprint. His last album ‘Lend an ear, leave a word’ was released on Kye Records in 2016.

For the last five years I have taken a sample from every video I watch on my laptop. As a tip of the hat to William Burroughs and Robert Anton Wilson I take the sample from the 23rd minute. Each sample is arranged and layered chronologically, constructing an aleatory narrative, a random DJ mix of dialogue, music and foley, a self portrait of viewing habits and memory. VHS rips merge with Blu Ray restorations, youtube binges mingle with abandoned box sets.

Barry Burns is not the bloke out of Mogwai, its a different, unsuccessful one. He is the co-manager of Radiophrenia and has used his immense power to give himself the highly coveted 5am slot.

During 2013 Momus created a series of radiophonic programmes for Newcastle radio station BasicFM entitled Hearspool. Mesmeric, evocative, and made in the tradition of German neue hoerspiel.

1. Chin Ting Chan - Katachi I

Katachi is a Japanese term that means form, shape or figure. In the ancient game of Go, the word Katachi is used to describe the formation of stones on a Go board (Go is originated from Ancient China, where it is known as Weiqi). The conception of stone formation in Go is transformed to apply to the circulation and combination of sounds and timbre in the music.

Hong Kong composer Chin Ting (Patrick) CHAN has been a fellow and guest composer at festivals such as the International Computer Music Conference, IRCAM’s ManiFeste and the Wellesley Composers Conference, with performances in more than twenty countries. He has twice represented Hong Kong abroad in the International Rostrum of Composers and the ISCM World Music Days Festival. He is currently Assistant Professor of Music Composition at Ball State University. He holds a D.M.A. from the University of Missouri–Kansas City as well as degrees from Bowling Green State University and San José State University.

4. Kala Pierson – Lost Languages

Lost Languages begins with fluid loops played by Ilya Temkin on bandura (a Ukrainian lute). Gradually, these loops wash into sounds made from other acoustic-only sources: bowed piano strings, metallic sounds from a piano's frame and the metal body of a zarb (drum), and processed layers of a human voice saying "shh." The loss here is meant to be heard as an abstract process: loss of old worlds and knowledge, silencings direct and indirect.

Kala Pierson is an American composer and sound artist. Vivid, expressive, and full of bold colors, her music has been performed in more than 30 countries on six continents, widely awarded and commissioned, and published by Universal Edition. She's held season-long composer residencies with American Opera Projects, Tribeca Performing Arts Center, and San Francisco Choral Artists. With deep interests in non-western musics, she's initiated many cross-cultural projects. Born in 1977, she studied composition at Eastman School of Music and now lives in Philadelphia with her spouses and son.

5. Adam Paroussos - Mvt. I Audio Field

Cosmophonic Fantasia is predominately a musique concrète film in three movements: I Audio Field, II Bamboo Mustard and III Fractal Reprise. This piece explores the metaphysical and expressive nature of sound and inspired by Sonata form. ‘Audio Field’ uses a collection of montaged film and sound samples and ‘remixes’ them together to turn the everyday experiences of sound into a dream-like sonic experience. Mvt 2,‘Bamboo Mustard’ uses collected fragments of live performances to piece together the journey of this character - Bamboo Mustard. The final movement Fractal Reprise concludes the film, exploring the underlying structures within the natural and sound.

Adam Paroussos is an interdisciplinary sound artist and designer, just graduated from Central Saint Martins, BA Performance Design and Practice. His work is rooted in performative, collaborative and experimental approaches with sound and music. Under his Nova award-nominated alter-ego ‘Bamboo Mustard’, he performs with DIY instruments in a sound costume in the cracks and corners of London. Adam works across theatre, live art and film including composing the soundtrack for Andrea Zimmerman’s ‘Erase and Forget’ documentary and Jotdown’s physical theatre show ‘Haidar’.

6. Katie McMurran – Alone

This piece is an attempt to encapsulate the feelings of loneliness that arise when one is without an “other” and the frustration that comes from dealing with the expectations others place on those who are alone.

Katie McMurran is a sound engineer for broadcast and composer. She uses field recordings, music and text to create sonic landscapes that explore internal dialogs and contemplations. Her pieces have been exhibited with Sound Cafe, New Town Arts, New Adventures in Sound Art and Association Octandre.

7. devilsclub – Orwellian Comedy

"orwellian comedy" is an improvised, abstract, electronic piece made with equipment that harnesses chaos for the purpose of modulation. This piece is a selection from a series of works entitled "aleatoria" I made while on the road travelling this year. This piece was live patched with no overdubs straight to 2 track.

"devilsclub" is my vehicle for transmitting expressions of deeply felt emotions that defy words, and or the intensely absurd. Usually these transmissions are made live to 2 track with no overdubs. I am yet another humble participant in the renaissance of free speech and content that the Internet has made possible. As we rapidly approach the "end of employment" due to the maturing of the "Universal Machine" I have chosen to celebrate this odd time with a few odd sounds. The odder, the better.

8. Jan Swinburne – RADIOdomestica

The Radio series are live improvisation noise music tracks that use random broadcast samples and static as a form of audio aggression and commentary on contemporary broadcast radio experience, but they are mostly about putting random and programmed sound together.

Jan Swinburne is a Canadian artist whose interdisciplinary practice uses traditional and digital media. Swinburne approaches all media from a painter’s sensibility with focus on visual code systems and complexity as an aesthetic framework. Some works evolve into larger site-sensitive installations and projects. An experimental approach to art is central to her practice.

Swinburne’s digital work utilizes image de/re/generation and composing sound. Swinburne has collaborated with like minded international musicians and has screened in Brooklyn/New York City (Experi-MENTAL Festival 6), New Jersey (Filmideo/Index Art Centre), Washington DC (Auditory Learning Experience) and Toronto (VectorFestival). In 2015 she signed with Alrealon Musique.

In the rural community of Molien, in the Marne Valley, people remember two larger than life characters : André le Géant 3 time Wrestling World Champion (iconic face of Obey) and nobel prize writer Samuel Beckett. Nicole Greub, Jacques Roussimoff, Jacques Delaitre, François Musnier, Yvonne Ampen mix their fragmented memories and anecdotes with history. Including archival material, excerpts of wrestling programs with Dédé and plays by Sam.

Shortly after the invention of the microphone Nazi Germany used field recordings to
strengthen nationalistic feelings. With Yaron Jean.

A series of radio programs By Dani Gal and Achim Lengerer. Originally commissioned by Documenta 14.

The radio is an acousmatic instrument. Listeners do not see the origin of the sound,
their experience is shaped both by the their own interpretation, and the manipulation
of the producer in a political system.

Our programs work on the space between documentary and Musique concrète.
Each show focuses on political events that are connected to acoustic events. This
creates an acousmatic documentary where the programs become sound-objects.
The programs response to the 'image saturated society' discourse, by asking what is
the function of sound as a document in times of live video feeds that can be broadcast
by anyone.

Dani Gal (born 1975, Jerusalem) lives and works in Berlin. He studied at the Bezalel
Academy for Art and Design in Jerusalem; the Staatliche Hochschule für Bildende
Künste Städelschule in Frankfurt; and the Cooper Union in New York. His flms and
works have been shown widely, including: Documenta 14, 54th Venice Biennale
(2011), The Istanbul Biennale (2011), The New Museum New York (2012),
Kunsthalle St. Gallen Swizerland (2013), The Jewish museum New York (2014),
Berlinale Forum Expanded (2014), Kunsthaus Zurich (2015) Kunsthalle Wien (2015)
And more.

Achim Lengerer works on political questions of speech and language that he
thematizes in performances, radio plays or spatializes within installations and
publications. Lengerer founded different collaborative projects such as freitagsküche
in Frankfurt a. M. and voiceoverhead, with Dani Gal. Since 2009 Lengerer runs the
Berlin based showroom and publishing house Scriptings. Different Artists are invited
– all of which are working with the formats of script and text within their processes of
production. Lengerer is currently working on his Ph.D. at Goldsmiths, University of
London, UK, on the format of the rehearsal as an actual format for socio-political
negotiations.

2. Lin Li - The Star (abridged) by HG Wells

In this series of audio work by Lin Li, abridged versions of short stories in the public domain are created by using the first sentences in all or some of the paragraphs of the original text. The disconnected sentences form a semi-coherent structure within which other sounds are weaved together to accentuate the enigmatic quality of the narrative, providing space for imagination.

Originally from Hong Kong, Lin Li is now based in Scotland. She has been using sound and moving image in her creative practice since 2011.

3. Matthew Grouse - Only Solace

"Anxiety is the dizziness of freedom." - Søren Kierkegaard

As we exit childhood, a pessimism seems to ingrain itself in our social awareness, leaving the sheltered view of the world behind. An unavoidable atmosphere of anxiety amongst the general public fills the air like a dense fog. The various factors that amalgamate to create this feeling and the often surprising methods of alleviation can be extremely sporadic and surprising. The structure of the piece is based around these escalations and descents in the feeling of being overwhelmed.

Matthew Grouse, 21, is in his final year at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, studying composition with David Fennessy and Electro/Acoustic composition with Dr Alistair MacDonald. His work regularly combines media and is often concerned with human frailties and the everyday. Another large source of inspiration comes from a variety of arts, especially a love of film. Matthew was awarded the 2017 Kimie Composition Prize which resulted in a commission from Live Music Now, supported by the Kimie Trust. In 2016, Matthew was the winner of the Walter and Dinah Wolfe Memorial Award, adjudicated by Sir James Macmillan.

4. The Doll - Grumpy Gravediggers Amateur Hour

The Doll has been making hideous solo sounds since 2005. Her no-fi aesthetic is a hit with toddlers. The Doll also has a sideline in field recording, diapercore & household appliances.
She has recently been playing in Seattle noise improv bands TBA & PUNTERS and Auckland bands Septithe & Unknown Tofu. Her US/Aotearoa collective project, Contact Mike, has over 40 band members aged 14 months and up.

"The Doll can be constituted by mixing 3 parts experiment, 4 parts noise, 1 part ritual, and 2 parts theatre, with a pinch of space dust." - Alt Music

5. Jaxton Su Jingxiang – Dreamscape: PE Climb

Dreamscape is an exploration of how sounds in dreams can be translated aurally to form a narrative that could potentially aid in the understanding of the self. It aims to provide the audience with a sonic experience of the artist's self-portrait as told by his dreams.

Jaxton Su (b. 1988) is a Singaporean Visual Artist, based in Glasgow, UK. He enjoys experimenting with the use of colours in portraying peculiar narratives that delve into the notions of archetypes and the imaginary. Taking inspirations from the natural environment, Jaxton often creates bizarre dreamlike worlds with a whimsical composition of elements to bring across his ideas. Working with a variety of different mediums such as painting and installation, he hopes to create a visual utopia that could form a resonation with others and spark an imagination.

2 - Katy Hundertmark - From Before. To Here (16:19)

The experimental soundscape `From Before. To Here´ is a collection of 23 autonomous answering machine messages, linking various moments that now lie in the past. The missed calls were recorded for the exhibition `Ignore The Radiators ́ as part of Glasgow Open House Festival 2017 and represent the result of a durational performance where Hundertmark called her own phone from different places over time. The listener will experience a sonic collage of dissonant sound messages that tell an interlaced narrative made of noise, voices, conversations snippets, silence and field recordings.

Katy Hundertmark (1992, Oman) is a Scottish-German artist with a special interest in the threshold of the visual and performing arts. Her practice explores questions of identity, mostly using her own self as the vantage point and implementation for enquiries into the human condition. Hundertmark moved to Glasgow in 2015 and now holds an MLitt Degree in Photography and Moving Image from the Glasgow School of Art. Over the past years her work has been exhibited internationally in Germany, Great Britain, Israel, Italy and China.

(3) Jason Lesacalleet - Tarnished Copper (Copper Will Never Be Gold)

(4) Jason Lescalleet - I Killed Another Day

Jason Lescalleet assembles recordings to create a narrative meditation on the passage of time and our perception thereof.

Since establishing himself as a preeminent voice in contemporary electro-acoustic study, Jason Lescalleet has exploded the notion of what is possible within the realm of tape-based music. His recorded catalog acknowledges a diversity of application, from lo-fi reel-to-reel soundscaping and work for hand-held cassette machines, to digital sampling and computer generated composition. Lescalleet's live actions further expand his ouevre to include work with video, dance, performance art and multi-media concerns.

In the past two decades, Lescalleet has gradually and painstakingly compiled a compelling discography on notable labels such as Erstwhile, RRR, Intransitive Recordings, Kye, Celebrate Psi-Phenomenon, Hanson Records, Chondritic Sound, and most recently via his own Glistening Examples imprint. He has collaborated with Kevin Drumm, Aaron Dilloway, Graham Lambkin, Phill Niblock, Joe Colley, John Hudak, Rafael Toral, Thomas Ankersmit, and CM Von Hausswolff, among others, and during this time he’s built a solid reputation for delivering a visceral live experience in concert.

He currently lives in Maine, where he works and operates the Glistening Examples publishing label and the Glistening Labs studio for audio recording and mastering services.

Anne-Laure Pigache & Alessandro Bosetti with the Radiorevolten Workshop Ensemble: Claas Fritzsche, Mark Vernon, Mara May, Bernd Kukielka, Martina Weber, Aileen Wrozyna, Judith Geffert and others.

Recorded on October 23rd in Halle. Special thanks Sarah Washington, Knut Aufermann and the whole Radiorevolten team.

Imagine going back to the first days of radio when tape splicing and editing as well as sound effects and sound processing were not available. Imagine a time when everything was mono and all actors, noisemakers, Foley artists and speakers would gather in front of a single microphone to broadcast in real time. Imagine a sound art piece, a noise composition, a radio play, a radio documentary where all sounds are exclusively derived from the human voice.

While going back to those early times, we are travelling from the future and we are bringing with us all the ideas and aesthetic worlds that new technologies have implanted in us. How can we reinvent the possibilities given to us by technology?
Along these lines Alessandro Bosetti and Anne-Laure Pigache helped develop a collective piece with a fearless group of workshop participants during the massive Radiorevolten radio festival in Halle in October 2016. The live performance happened in a secluded room in front of a single microphone - an original and huge Melodium 42B from 1951 - while the somewhat baffled audience sat in front of a single loudspeaker in another separate room. Where did these sounds come from? At first it sounded as if an amorphous, gigantic monster was trying to extrude itself from the tiny acoustic hole at the centre of the loudspeaker. Eventually as ears grew used to the new situation and learned to project themselves across this sonorous worm-hole a new radiophonic universe emerged, monophonic but wide and deep, physical and textural, populated by abstract stories and characters and inhabited by a beautiful text by Mark Vernon. Bosetti and Pigache have been exploring monophonic real-time radio in a series of workshops titled Hand Made Radio since 2012.

From Gabi Schaffner's diary : " Maybe this becomes more comprehensible when I say that the text that sparked up in fragments between the choir of breathers, sniffers, grunts, snorts and moans dealt with a mediation practice that preceded the vocal improvisations. Instead of looking at a mandala the group focused on a speaker. The main body of the text was written by Mark Vernon and interspersed with the observations from other members of the group. As with Bosetti’s former piece, the dynamic of the play grounded in complex patterns of voices that varied in loudness and intensity, that same in pairs, single or collectively. Even though there was zero stereo effect the performance evoked a sense of space and intense interplay. As the piece came to a close the shadowy figures of the workshop members glided into vision with Anne-Laure and Alessandro improvising a slow dance on each side of the still whispering speaker. Applause. "

EDEN3 is a Futures Agenda that assumes a period or grief and reflection appropriate to the anthropocene. Followed by an obsessive attention to living things: playful experiments with experience and subjectivity, new sculptural interface and iterative development of environmental art practices.

Reiko Goto and Tim Collins are environmental artists, working together since 1985.

They embrace an ecosystems methodology, collaborating with a range of disciplines, communities and other living things. They are interested in the ways that art and imagination contribute to practical wisdom and democratic discourse about ethics and human values. The work primarily focuses upon natural public places and everyday experience of environmental commons. An ethical-aesthetic impulse permeates the artwork.

Goto orients herself through an experimental practice of empathic exchange with people, places and things. She completed her PhD in Ecology and Environmental Art in Public Places in 2012. Collins seeks transformative experience and ideas that can leverage small creative freedoms for people, places and things. He completed a PhD in Art, Ecology and Planning in 2007.

They are known for a phenomenological approach to site conditioned public art and a radical democratic approach to post-industrial landscape and ecological restoration. Since 2007, they have been immersed in an experimental approach to the perception and understanding of the relationship between individual trees, greenhouse gases and climate change. They have also begun some new work that examines forests in the 21st Century. They have worked in North America, Europe and Asia.

Here we speak to Ragnhild Faller and Hans Kristen Hyrve of Radio Nova in Oslo in Norway.

Mobile Radio offer an overview of independent and not-for-profit community, ‘free’, campus, and pirate stations who provide a wealth of material and perspectives outside of the mainstream media orthodoxy. This series constitutes a major retrospective of the work of the radio art network Radia, whose collective mission is to make radio that transcends the borders and boundaries of land and language. Mobile Radio visit each station in turn to discern their motives and inspirations, and explore the work of one of their associated artists. Produced with support from Goethe Institut.

“The kind of things that we fight against everyday but they ignore us, they silence us and they are still doing it.” is a fictional conversation that was initiated to antagonise the problematic system(s) and structure(s) within the institutions.

Through the artist’s personal experience and observation as a woman of color, the work examines, questions and provokes the perpetual rules of powers.

Katherine Ka Yi Liu (b. 1989, Los Angeles) distinguishes herself as an Asian woman who stands robustly as a contemporary artist and activist.

Ten stories for the radio – Five collected stories elaborated into five sound tales

Project by Renato Rinaldi Production and organisation by Hybrida Pieces by Slavek Kwi - Eric la casa - Antje Vowinckel - Ward Weis - Giuseppe Ielasi Funded by Arlef / Agjenzie Regjonâl pe Lenghe Furlane Aired by Frioulian local Radio Onde Furlane

Language is a sound, before being a meaning, and it’s the first human element in a soundscape. The stories have then been selectet according to the ability of the teller in using the language in a dramatic way more than for the stories themselves. For each story we have commissioned a music piece in which the recorded tale had to be the core of the composition. Such tranformation could only be possible in the hands of people who doesn’t have access to the meaning of the words. That is why we have chosen musicians the furthest away possible from Friulian geography, culture and language so as to have them relate with a new, as far as this is possible today, sound context.

The title literally means cow tongue but it refers to a edible plant: Rumex patientia, known as patience dock, "garden patience", "herb patience", or "monk's rhubarb", is a herbaceous perennial plant species of the genus Rumex, belonging to the family Polygonaceae. In spring it is often consumed as a leaf vegetable in Southern Europe.

The Friulian language is a mosaic of units, more often micro-units, territorial, each one with its own linguistic nuances and peculiar sound. The development of such peculiarities is the result of a long and continuous exchange with the environment, which each community entertains while setting its roots in a certain area. Language is a sound, before being a meaning, and it’s the first human element in a soundscape. The project Lenghedivacje endeavours at bringing out the sound of the Friulian language, throughout the collection of recorded material concerning historical or personal events. The stories have then been selected according to the ability of the teller in using the language in a dramatic way more than for the stories themselves. The events told are of course significant also as testimony but are especially extraordinary for the way in which they are “spoken” because they are unique and unique is the language they are using. Inside these stories there is a rich musical potential but in order to bring it out we have pushed the language over the wall of sense. For each story we have commissioned a music piece in which the recorded tale had to be the core of the composition. Such transformation could only be possible in the hands of people who could appreciate exclusively the sound of the language thus deprived of its dramatic element linked to sense. That is why we have chosen musicians the furthest away possible from Friulian geography, culture and language so as to have them relate with a new, as far as this is possible today, sound context. The composers selected for this task are people who routinely work with the sound of language and who use the radio as a means of expression investigating its communication possibilities. Each one of them was asked to work on a music composition starting exclusively form the recorded material assigned to them. The result is a series of compositions created from the phonemes (sound bits) of the Friulian language though enjoyable also away from its understanding.

5a - Mitja Rinaldi - Interview collected in San Giorgio di Nogaro (UD)
A 20-month-old toddler playing.

Elaborated into 5b - Mitjakuti by Giuseppe Ielasi – (Italy)
I have worked very seldomly with voices and words as ultimate source for my compositions. Though in this case the challenge seemed rather interesting. Actually I never considered the issue of language musicality since I’ve always treated all sounds in the same manner. The project’s theme though required a certain regard for the voice and the language. However until the sounds came out of a computer file they seemed untouchable, it was only possible to listen to them for as they were. Maybe what came up to my mind was the simplest, though most awsome, way of transforming the material into a music instrument: I simply changed the sound player by printing a vinyl. The voice thus turned into tool that could be played and manipolated, I was therefore able to exepriment a number of sampling techniques, which are a consolidate baggage throughout many music genres.

Renato Rinaldi studied acting, composition and electronic music. He has worked extensively in theater, first as an actor and then as a sound artist. As a musician he has composed music for theatre, radio plays and documentaries, video and sound installations. He is interested in composition applied to the relationship between sound /environment. He has also produced radio plays, documentaries and radio reportages, aired by Radio RAI and Radio France.

(1) Ricardo Paraiso Silvestre - Hearing Vibrations (10:01)

Hearing vibrations, when inaudible sound transposes senses and touch goes to hearing. We feel vibrations but we don't hear them. They are never the less present. Capturing these vibrations with sensors bring these sounds back into the realm of the audible from the sense of touch. These vibrations are transmitted through solids and the sound captured is different for each medium where the vibration is present while the source of the vibration remains the same. This work is based on this premises that although the vibrating source may be the same, the captured sound varies wit the medium. The sounds captured for this work are of the vibrations produced by a small vibrating motor that is placed on various materials thus producing different sounds.

Ricardo Paraíso Silvestre is a sound artist living and working in Oeiras, Portugal. With a degree in plant pathology, he went on to study sculpture at art school and later got a masters in multimedia communication. All of his works have field recordings as a starting point. Both audible and inaudible sounds are used to compose audio pieces. His works have been played in a number of exhibits and radio stations both in Europe and the United States and was part of a CD edition of electromagnetic sound works

(2) Vincent Eoppolo - Reflexivity
(3) Jamie Livingstone - The Signal In The Noise
(4) Sarah Angliss - The Messenger (Crystal Palace Mix)

Jason Lescalleet assembles recordings to create a narrative meditation on the passage of time and our perception thereof.

Since establishing himself as a preeminent voice in contemporary electro-acoustic study, Jason Lescalleet has exploded the notion of what is possible within the realm of tape-based music. His recorded catalog acknowledges a diversity of application, from lo-fi reel-to-reel soundscaping and work for hand-held cassette machines, to digital sampling and computer generated composition. Lescalleet's live actions further expand his ouevre to include work with video, dance, performance art and multi-media concerns.

In the past two decades, Lescalleet has gradually and painstakingly compiled a compelling discography on notable labels such as Erstwhile, RRR, Intransitive Recordings, Kye, Celebrate Psi-Phenomenon, Hanson Records, Chondritic Sound, and most recently via his own Glistening Examples imprint. He has collaborated with Kevin Drumm, Aaron Dilloway, Graham Lambkin, Phill Niblock, Joe Colley, John Hudak, Rafael Toral, Thomas Ankersmit, and CM Von Hausswolff, among others, and during this time he’s built a solid reputation for delivering a visceral live experience in concert. He currently lives in Maine, where he works and operates the Glistening Examples publishing label and the Glistening Labs studio for audio recording and mastering services.

Sarah Angliss and Stephen Hiscock - Percipient

Theremin, carillon, ventriloquism, percussion and automata feature in this performance inspired by the electrical mysticism in GEO S Hazelhurst’s ‘The Invisible Telegraph of Tomorrow’. Writing in 1887, 14 years before a faint radio signal was first transmitted across the Atlantic, the author prophesized a time when messages would be transmitted around the globe by telepaths lined along the shores of each continent. This musical per-formance will include some reenactments of experiments in chapter 1, Hazelhurst’s trea-tise on thought transference.

Sarah Angliss is a composer, automatist and live performer whose music explores resonances between English folklore and early notions of sound and machines. Sarah’s particularly known for her skills on theremin and recorder and for the robotic instruments she designs and builds to work with her on stage. Sarah also composes for live film scores and theatre, most recently for Eugene O’Neill’s expressionist play ‘The Hairy Ape’ (at The Old Vic, London, and Park Avenue Armory, New York, directed by Richard Jones). She’s currently composing an electroacoustic chamber opera on the life and death of Charles Byrne (with librettist Ross Sutherland, for Aldeburgh Music and the Jerwood Charitable Trust) and creating sounds and music for a live stage version of The Twilight Zone at The Almeida Theatre, London. Her recent album Ealing Feeder was released in April 2017. “The most inventive album I’ve heard in a long while…a testament to Angliss’s imagination and sheer musicality”, Simon Reynolds, 4 Columns, New York. “A highly atmospheric and compelling listen…drawing on a dense skien of real pasts and imagined futures to talk lucidly and provocatively about the present”, Robert Barry, The Wire Magazine.

Stephen Hiscock is a composer, drummer and percussionist, working for film, advertisements, theatre and the concert hall. His works have been performed at the Melbourne Festival, Aardklop Festival (South Africa), Purcell Room, Royal Festival Hall, Glastonbury, Latitude and a national tour of Ghana. Most recently he’s been writing for the theatre. He was composer and live soloist in Complicite’s Lionboy which toured in 2015 to the UK, Hong Kong, South Korea, South Africa and played for two weeks on Broadway in New York. Also ‘X&Y’ – a two-hander with Marcus Du Sautoy and Victoria Gould – produced by the Science Museum and performed at all the major UK festivals. In 1992 he was a founder member of percussion group ensemblebash, performing world premieres of works by Steve Reich, Stewart Copeland, Nitin Sawhney, Django Bates, Eric Whitacre, Imogen Heap, Keith Tippett and Tan Dun. His percussion features extensively on Angliss’ debut album Ealing Feeder. He’s currently on European tour with Mark Eiztel.

Anthony Autumn & Christopher MacInnes - Interior Ocean

For their new live performance Anthony and Christopher will be generating a semi-improvised composition of vocality and soundscaping. Drawing on writings and field-recordings gathered over the past year, they will create an immersive and disorientating journey through an imagined sub-aquatic landscape.

Interior Ocean is a slow crawl through the jellied monoculture swamping the petrified machine-scape of global capitalism. Originating from a fascination in the unique biology of jellyfish and the strange relationship they have to globalisation, the performance will explore the complex entanglement between built and natural ecologies. Both collateral interference and agent of globalisation, the jellyfish becomes a parallel entity for the SSRI-infused emotional labourer, the symbiotic host of insomniac-twitching, 24 hour on-screen living.

Anthony Autumn is an artist whose varying practice centres on writing and collaboration. Previously a dedicated performance poet and editor-at-large of HOAX publication, Anthony currently programmes and runs art and creative writing workshops and contributes written and spoken work to publications, exhibitions and events.

Christopher MacInnes is an artist based in Glasgow. Working across computer-generated animation, installation, sculpture and computer programming, MacInnes draws on visual languages from consumer technology, the corporate web and science fiction.
Through the creation of immersive environments, both online and IRL, he explores the heavy infrastructure of information based cultures against the glossy hyper-texture of our luxury-tech devices with the aim of articulating the practice and nature of being human in a simultaneously industrial and intangible environment.
Recent shows and projects include SPORES OF LOVE, David Dale Gallery (Glasgow 2017), 4k made me sick (ArebyteLASER, London), (Retina Gothic, Intermedia, CCA (Glasgow 2016), Small Gate, Infinite Field, Generator Projects (Dundee 2015) and Boot Signal, Embassy Gallery (Edinburgh 2015).

Carrie Skinner - woah oh oh oh, on the radio -adio -adio

This new visual performance for the radio woah oh oh oh, on the radio -adio -adio, develops out of an attempt to synchronise the individual and collective rhythms of its multiple and variously located live and future audiences, by pulling them together into the shared aspirational forever of a disco lyric.

Carrie Skinner lives and works between Glasgow and Berlin. She is into figuring out contemporary cultural relationships with time and its multiple concepts through popular imagery and themes from Gothic and Science-Fiction genres. Ghosts, telephones and disco music haunt her practice, playfully illustrating the academic discourses of spectralities and liveness while testing the limits of the transitory relationship between audience and performer. She reluctantly makes solo performances for expediency and economy, and seeks out scenarios that anticipate spectacle and demand virtuosity but probably expose her failure and amateurism. Recent performances include; Lutz Mommartz retrospective for Transit Arts, Glasgow, 2017;Nowhere for TAKE ME SOMEWHERE, Tron Theatre, Glasgow, UK 2016, Time Isn’t Holding Up Time Isn’t After Us, Old Hairdressers, Glasgow, 2016; Cherry Picker at Rhubaba, Edinburgh, 2016. Published work includes; ‘there’s something happening somewhere: a score for a rehearsal or a re-enactment’, The Burning Sand VI ed. Sarah Lowndes, Glasgow, 2016; ‘Mary This One’s For You: A Romantic Drama in Three Acts’, Gnommero: Multiplicity ed. Sarah Tripp and Richard Taylor, Glasgow, 2015.

Please mind the gap is the first episode of a new monthly show by Mari Moriko broadcasting on Cashmere Radio. It is an audio collage of sounds from all ages that look toward a feminist future where power structures of all kinds are questioned and dismantled. but how far is this a western-centric ideal and how does it translate to non-western cultures (my focus is on japan) where the binary notion of gender is woven into the language itself. synthesised text-to-speech voices read out texts, manifestos, cd sleeves, user comments, conversations and more, underscored with beautiful pieces by women in electronic music. each show concludes with an episode of “sumatto” (smut – erotic literature for women by women), read out almost unintelligibly by a japanese text-to-speech voice.

“100 Books” is a work for 100 voices, and consists of a marathon reading of 100 variations of the same poem, all of them written by John Bently. It is a collective act, a celebration of the power and commitment of released words, an elegy to the song, the poem, the human voice. It is a reminder that no matter how ferocious the tyranny, there are some things that cannot be erased, burned, suppressed, enslaved, imprisoned or silenced. You can kill the singers but never the song, once sung.

Featuring the voices of (amongst others):

John Bently
Amanda Palmer
Iain Sinclair
Brian Catling
Ben Rivers
Carol Chant
Mikey Kirkpatrick
Gareth Evans
Marcia Farquhar

Chiara is a filmmaker working with animation, experimental film, documentary and sound to explore the ways in which we perceive, remember, articulate and preserve personal and collective histories and place through the filter of memory and the imagination.
Chiara is also the founder and curator of The Light & Shadow Salon, a monthly film night at The Horse Hospital in Bloomsbury.

A sort of irrational exploration of “the questing beast”, the artist who goes beyond the limits of propriety and shocks — or merely tries to shake — the bourgeois order.

During 2013 Momus created a series of radiophonic programmes for Newcastle radio station BasicFM entitled Hearspool. Mesmeric, evocative, and made in the tradition of German neue hoerspiel.

Momus is a Scot who makes songs, books and art. He lives between Europe and Japan.

Czech political prisoners in the communist era formed a special kind of brotherhood
that lasted years after their release. With Jana Kopelentova Rehak.

A series of radio programs By Dani Gal and Achim Lengerer. Originally commissioned by Documenta 14.

The radio is an acousmatic instrument. Listeners do not see the origin of the sound,
their experience is shaped both by the their own interpretation, and the manipulation
of the producer in a political system.

Our programs work on the space between documentary and Musique concrète.
Each show focuses on political events that are connected to acoustic events. This
creates an acousmatic documentary where the programs become sound-objects.
The programs response to the 'image saturated society' discourse, by asking what is
the function of sound as a document in times of live video feeds that can be broadcast
by anyone.

Dani Gal (born 1975, Jerusalem) lives and works in Berlin. He studied at the Bezalel
Academy for Art and Design in Jerusalem; the Staatliche Hochschule für Bildende
Künste Städelschule in Frankfurt; and the Cooper Union in New York. His flms and
works have been shown widely, including: Documenta 14, 54th Venice Biennale
(2011), The Istanbul Biennale (2011), The New Museum New York (2012),
Kunsthalle St. Gallen Swizerland (2013), The Jewish museum New York (2014),
Berlinale Forum Expanded (2014), Kunsthaus Zurich (2015) Kunsthalle Wien (2015)
And more.

Achim Lengerer works on political questions of speech and language that he
thematizes in performances, radio plays or spatializes within installations and
publications. Lengerer founded different collaborative projects such as freitagsküche
in Frankfurt a. M. and voiceoverhead, with Dani Gal. Since 2009 Lengerer runs the
Berlin based showroom and publishing house Scriptings. Different Artists are invited
– all of which are working with the formats of script and text within their processes of
production. Lengerer is currently working on his Ph.D. at Goldsmiths, University of
London, UK, on the format of the rehearsal as an actual format for socio-political
negotiations.

It's been 20 years exactly since I created 'Recorded Delivery', which quietly collected sounds of the inner realm of the Post Office in March 1995. Back then I could only use cassettes to capture sound, and there was no internet or digital in my world. Two decades later the technical options are staggering, but simplicity and calm is more in demand than ever before.

Foundsoundscape was inspired by the very first Digital Radio station in the UK, that simply played a recording of a rural location. Radio you could just leave running to add a peaceful ambience to your environment indoors. It heralded a new media paradigm, as digital broadcasting offered more capacity than requred for the first time, and that space needed filling. At the same time on TV, Channel 4 was broadcasting Big Brother live 24hours, and at night I loved to tune-in my analogue TV sets all over the house, and the shed, so I could hear the housemates gently sleeping as I worked through the night. Since then infomercials, and gambling TV have taken over, and I greatly miss that sense of real-time space, that does not demand your attention. Foundsoundscape quietly underscores your environment, by creating new ones from others.

Radio is special as it was the first medium that could be experienced by many people in many places, all at the same time. Foundsoundscape.com is an online radio station that streams live 24hours a day, which can now be broadcast to people all over the globe. Using over 1000 calm & curious location recordings captured by 100+ recordists, the sounds were simply edited, and then played back three at a time at various volumes in shuffle mode, and the result is never the same twice. You often hear the edges of time as files begin or stop playing mid flow. If you listen ever so carefully you can also hear me working in the studio at the end of the garden late at night, as I have a live mic feeding into the mix. I sometimes like to work with tv radio & music playing, to absorb information, give me ideas, create and share. Email me for a shout-out!

My hope is that others will find foundsoundscape enjoyable and leave it running all day & all night long, just like a radio! It's as simple as that, with one click. A salute to serendipity and shared sonic space. Bookmark it. Play it in rooms around the house. Share it . . Take a break . . .
Every day is different.
Happy Daze.

Mobile Radio offer an overview of independent and not-for-profit community, ‘free’, campus, and pirate stations who provide a wealth of material and perspectives outside of the mainstream media orthodoxy. This series constitutes a major retrospective of the work of the radio art network Radia, whose collective mission is to make radio that transcends the borders and boundaries of land and language. Mobile Radio visit each station in turn to discern their motives and inspirations, and explore the work of one of their associated artists. Produced with support from Goethe Institut.

We are interested in creating new electromagnetic infrastructures and proposing narratives or experiences that can be lived in these ephemeral sonic spaces. Our performances utilize an array of electronic and analog instruments, as well as devices designed and fabricated by hand.The tracks on this page were originally produced for our installation and live performance at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago in March 2016. Using variations in speed, long durations, patience, and repetition, we built up musical and auditory foundations through tracks and technologies, slowly filling the museum with various soundscapes. While broadcasting across analog radio signals (via Radius) and digital transmissions (via NUMBERS.FM), we physically moved through the museum after setting up two stages on two floors to perform from.

Press/Review: https://mcachicago.org/Stories/Blog/2017/06/03222016

Jeff Kolar (b. Chicago, US) is a independent sound artist, radio producer, and curator. He is the Founder and Artistic Director of Radius, an experimental radio broadcast platform established in 2010. His work, described as "speaker-shredding" (Half Letter Press), "wonderfully strange" (John Corbett), and "characteristically curious" (Marc Weidenbaum), activates sound in unconventional, temporary, and ephemeral ways using appropriation and remix as a critical practice. His solo and collaborative projects, installations, and public performances often investigate the mundane sonic nuances of everyday electronic devices.

1. Kyle Vanderburg - Tempest in a Teakettle

The title suggests the small problems we consider daily, waiting as they build within us. ‘Waiting’ is explored in several ways, and uses the medium to augment these daily dramas. After being introduced to the teakettle, the noise of rain and wind begin to fill the sonic space. Soft rains and distant thunder churn over one another in a tempest, giving way to cautious harmonies from the wail of a storm siren. Just as soon, the sirens fade: A full kettle has come to boil. The unease of waiting blurs the sense of scale between the tempest and the teakettle.

Composer Kyle Vanderburg (b. 1986) grew up in Missouri where the Ozarks meet the Mississippi River valley. Raised on southern gospel and American hymnody, his music tries to walk the line between eliciting nostalgia and devising innovative sonic worlds. His electronic works place familiar sounds in new contexts, his acoustic works feature catchy melodies and too many time signatures. He writes music he hopes his parents will like. He holds degrees from Drury University and the University of Oklahoma and has studied under Carlyle Sharpe, Marvin Lamb, Konstantinos Karathanasis, and Roland Barrett. He'd be delighted if you checked out KyleVanderburg.com.

2. Jaxton Su Jingxiang - Sword Magic

Dreamscape is an exploration of how sounds in dreams can be translated aurally to form a narrative that could potentially aid in the understanding of the self. It aims to provide the audience with a sonic experience of the artist's self-portrait as told by his dreams.

Jaxton Su (b. 1988) is a Singaporean Visual Artist, based in Glasgow, UK. He enjoys experimenting with the use of colours in portraying peculiar narratives that delve into the notions of archetypes and the imaginary. Taking inspirations from the natural environment, Jaxton often creates bizarre dreamlike worlds with a whimsical composition of elements to bring across his ideas. Working with a variety of different mediums such as painting and installation, he hopes to create a visual utopia that could form a resonation with others and spark an imagination.

3. Hagai Izenberg - Chronicle 6

Chronicles is a weekly format of works that attempt to trace the sounds and happenings on a weekly basis and compress them to 4-5 minutes of sonic experience. Fresh raw materials were collected every week including field recordings, samples from radio & tv and recordings sent by listeners of RadioArt program by Meira Asher on 106fm, who featured the project. It includes 6 episodes (total of 30 minutes) of 6 weeks from Oct 6th till Nov 17th, 2016 and attempts to capture everyday sounds together with the daily news & events, tragedies and political discourse next to advertisements and entertainment.

Hagai is a sound artist, composer and musician and a founder member of the electronic duo Rendezvous. Born in 1978, he lives and works in Israel. His work focuses on collecting and combining field recordings together with radio broadcasting, using sounds we’re exposed to every day in the public and domestic spheres, often in passing or involuntarily. The result is a multi-layered restless composition created in real-time, using pre-recorded sound objects and live sources; a compressed sonic experience of our daily lives.

5. Jamie Livingstone – Between Breaths

Puddle Rainbows Missed is a poetry EP by Jamie Livingstone produced by future garage and techno DJs Blackboxx and Acidtone. It centres around the idea of the Mandelbrot Set and iterative patterns. How do these forms commune with the brittle, coarse and tender everyday muck? What are people up to with cucumbers? Who knows anyway? It’s poems mixed with samples. It’s sound and shape.

I started writing poetry when Mr Harrington read us Yeats and almost stopped when I heard what age he lost his virginity.
Yeats, that is, not Mr Harrington.
Who knows what he gets up to.
I am 26. Yeats was 31. I live in Oban. I have no children. I have a full set of teeth.

6. Alexis Weaver - Hot Wheels Lead to Melted Tyres

A toy car, or a monster truck? Zippy, energised gestures leave behind deep, textured trails, exaggerating small sounds with a child’s passion. This piece is part of a larger suite of works drawing on the sounds of childhood toys.

Alexis Weaver is a young electroacoustic composer based in Sydney, Australia. Growing up close to the pristine beaches and landscapes of Jervis Bay, Alexis is fascinated by sounds of the natural world. By fusing her classical education with music technology, Alexis aims to create powerful abstract works and bring the wonder of sound to new audiences.

Alexis has composed soundtracks for animation, short stories, radio, and the Sydney Fringe Festival. Recently, her acousmatic and radiophonic works have been broadcast overseas in France and Scotland. Alexis was awarded First Place and People’s Choice Award in the 2016 and 2015 University of Sydney Verge Awards respectively for her acousmatic works. Alexis’ 2017 work, Spin, will be included on RMN Classical’s upcoming album, Electroacoustic and Beyond Volume 2.

7. Gregory Kramer - Vampire State Building

Vampire State Building is an eight-channel audio performed piece using lobby recordings of eight New York City landmark buildings (Empire State Building, Trump Tower, Chrysler Building, Waldorf-Astoria, Lipstick Building, Plaza Hotel, 30 Rockefeller Plaza and 1 World Trade Center). This version has been mixed down to stereo.

Gregory Kramer is a multidisciplinary artist working with sound and space. Taking inspiration from his archaeological curiosity of abandoned places and his interest in mythology, he searches for ghosts among the ruins and seeks to unearth evidence of forgotten histories through sound. His sound work uses field recordings, found materials, electronics, instruments and radio transmissions. His work was featured in the Sonom International Sound Art Festival, and he recently composed for a dance piece performed at the Setia Darma Museum of Masks and Puppetry in Bali. He has album releases on Impulsive Habitat and International Winners.

8. Katie Currie - Is there anybody out there

Creating artwork that relates to humanities interest in finding life on other planets and our creation of space travel in order to reach out to these potential beings is a particular interest of mine, the way we have created other means to reach them through physical contact or transmission is fascinating to me. ‘Is there anyone out there?’ consists of a collection of audio clips that are a combination of mysterious signals received from space and unexplainable radio transmissions alongside a Morse code translation of the phrase ‘is there anybody out there?’ which plays intermittently.

This 60 minute recording was produced in July 2016 in Ano Syros, Greece (as
part of the Syros’ Sound Meetings residency) and is the first realization of a score entitled Inner Sound. This enhanced field recording was recorded during two takes using a Zoom H6 handheld recorder, airhorns, and audience participation. Finally, in editing, sine-tones were added to correspond to the altitude of the journey up and down the path, from the highest point on the island to sea level.

Jordan Dykstra is a composer and performer born in Sioux City, IA, who was formally educated throughout the United States and informally throughout Europe. Some of his
interests include psychoacoustics, plants, invention, drinking coffee, noise, and his cat Basil. In 2015 Jordan founded Editions Verde, a small-run music publisher interested in the relationship between physical objects and sound.

The women behind the civil rights movement in the U.S. as documented in Irma
McClaurin’s African American feminist archive, and Ryan Mendoza hijacking Rosa
Parks' house to Berlin.

A series of radio programs By Dani Gal and Achim Lengerer. Originally commissioned by Documenta 14.

The radio is an acousmatic instrument. Listeners do not see the origin of the sound,
their experience is shaped both by the their own interpretation, and the manipulation
of the producer in a political system.

Our programs work on the space between documentary and Musique concrète.
Each show focuses on political events that are connected to acoustic events. This
creates an acousmatic documentary where the programs become sound-objects.
The programs response to the 'image saturated society' discourse, by asking what is
the function of sound as a document in times of live video feeds that can be broadcast
by anyone.

Dani Gal (born 1975, Jerusalem) lives and works in Berlin. He studied at the Bezalel
Academy for Art and Design in Jerusalem; the Staatliche Hochschule für Bildende
Künste Städelschule in Frankfurt; and the Cooper Union in New York. His flms and
works have been shown widely, including: Documenta 14, 54th Venice Biennale
(2011), The Istanbul Biennale (2011), The New Museum New York (2012),
Kunsthalle St. Gallen Swizerland (2013), The Jewish museum New York (2014),
Berlinale Forum Expanded (2014), Kunsthaus Zurich (2015) Kunsthalle Wien (2015)
And more.

Achim Lengerer works on political questions of speech and language that he
thematizes in performances, radio plays or spatializes within installations and
publications. Lengerer founded different collaborative projects such as freitagsküche
in Frankfurt a. M. and voiceoverhead, with Dani Gal. Since 2009 Lengerer runs the
Berlin based showroom and publishing house Scriptings. Different Artists are invited
– all of which are working with the formats of script and text within their processes of
production. Lengerer is currently working on his Ph.D. at Goldsmiths, University of
London, UK, on the format of the rehearsal as an actual format for socio-political
negotiations.

Basement Voices” is a mini-documentary made from a collection of reel to reel recordings made between 1955-1964 by Diogenes Paul Schouwe, the Panamanian consulate to Chicago, a refrigerator technician and Rosicrucian. They had been stored since 1997, when he passed away, in the basement of my apartment building in Logan Square, Chicago.

Alyssa Moxley accesses narratives of identity, place, space, and embodied experience through sound. She utilizes microphone techniques, field recording, interviews, composition, digital and analog sound design, speaker placement, and sculpture to create detailed sonic interventions and environments that relate to networks of memory and knowledge distribution.

In this piece I have recorded as many people as possible within a certain period of time. Wherever I went I asked people to say “here” in their own mother language. Each person was asked to say this word only once, and only in cases of perfect bi- or tri-lingualism did I allow them to say it in additional languages. I have edited all of these single-word samples chronologically in the exact order in which they were recorded. All recordings were made between August 12th and October 30th, 2017 in Vicobarone (IT), Milano (IT), Marseille (FR), Porto (PT), Marseille (FR), Taipei (TW), Bologna (IT) and Lyon (FR).

People, microphones and languages move, at least in relation to each other. Their movement is somehow unpredictable and free as a beautiful dance. Whilst scanning the territory I experienced how linguistic and geographical landscapes intersect in complex ways and how every territory is constantly transversed in multiple directions by so many living beings.

Each of these recordings of a single word is evidence of an individual being in a specific place at a specific moment in time although we may not know the actual details of who, where and when. People come and go and are found in unexpected places, each one of them with her/his own biography and memory. The microphone has its own schedule, its own agenda, and opens a window towards the future and the not here. Languages moreover, travel with people, sometimes the same person carries two, three or more. Languages are not bound to a specific location or to a specific person as they migrate from place to place and from mouth to mouth.

In triangulating languages, individuals and the microphone we obtain precise coordinates of pure existence but we may not be able to infer proper locations. Nevertheless all these coordinates draw a path, a road, a corrugated and fascinating itinerary worthy of travelling over and over again with our ears and imagination. Consider this piece a travelogue, or a meditation on voice in relative space and have a nice trip.

Horses - An immersive, cinematic portrait of T.Cribbs & Sons, one of East London’s oldest funeral directors. Specialising in traditional horse-drawn funerals they are the only firm who still have their own stables. This captures the intimate relationships they have with their horses, and the quiet intensity of their work. One of 28 audio portraits designed to be listened to whilst wandering through an overgrown Victorian cemetery park in Mile End in London.

Meet me at cemetery gates - Neglected for years, Tower Hamlets Cemetery Park was originally one of London’s Magnificent Seven cemeteries. It stretches for 31 acres and is the city's largest urban woodland. From cemetery to nature reserve, the park mirrors the East End’s long history of providing a refuge and haven for (im)migrants. We meet those who played there long ago, Serbian foragers, bird-watchers and to children who visit the park now, who all create a portrait of this bewitching space.

“They say you should never stop drinking suddenly. But that was exactly what I did…”
The day after his alcoholic mother’s funeral, David starts his own nightmarish battle with withdrawal. A first-person docudrama based on real-life experience, The Last Glass takes listeners on a vivid hallucinatory journey through grief, psychosis and delirium and out the other side.

Content note: contains graphic descriptions of violence and self-harm plus one use of strong language.

Love Without Sound are an audiovisual duo comprising David Badger and Abi Bliss, from Wakefield and Huddersfield. Sonically, they take acoustic instruments and electronic sounds, the technologically advanced and the deliberately naïve, and combine them in organic and unearthly ways. Previous work includes Reasons for Admission, an installation for a padded cell at the Mental Health Museum; Pixophytoflora, an AV performance at Light Night Liverpool; and The Sum of All Knowledge, a film for Wakefield Artwalk.

The Territory Wildlife Park is a 400-hectare expanse of native bush land located south-west of Darwin, Australia. By day the sonic landscape is suppressed by heat. However, at night, the bush swells with insects, birds and mysterious rustlings through the pandanus.

Field recordist and radio maker Camilla Hannan spent three weeks living on the edges of the park. She spoke with the land’s traditional custodians and park workers to examine how the sounds of our environment reflect our connection to country and each other.

Red Rooms in Subterranean Dwellings explores myriad nagging uncertainties, as they are revealed to be mundane, yet ripe currency for exchange with ever present fearmongers.
Or alternatively, a place to burn a light, indulging introspection and surreal dreaming as a wellspring for imagination.

This piece is a response to H.G. Wells’ “The Red Room ” short story from 1874. Taken
simply, it’s a brief gothic test of credulity: to cause a shiver, as a fireside read. But typical of Wells, there is another effort there — interpreting and projecting a rapidly shifting social
climate. Wells delivers Fear as a commodity, packaged and constrained by the four walls of his Red Room; promoted by an indentured peerage of brokers. This Fear is materially real, yet allows for conscientious refusal — by sustained efforts to keep light burning in it's
shadow.

The passing century has seen rapid shifts to the present day, where we face a far diminished risk and tangible cause for fear. Conscious endeavour has emphatically explored the unknown, and forcefully pursued uncertainty; ultimately fueling discovery, creativity and progress. Regrettably, those misfortunes which do catastrophically disrupt safety and security are too often tractable to evident, deliberate machinations. Our sense of fear is organic and innate, but our attachment to it, often misdirected.

The narrative and sound design are developed by methods of process and constraint. This
facilitates the artists working simultaneously, in physical isolation, to produce convergent
expression: a structure of narrative voices braided through spatial timbral and rhythmic layers. There is the impression is of a ‘musical’ piece physically mobile in an extensive unfamiliar world. The language and instrumental devices can seem familiar, but there is ambiguity and strangeness, reflecting the individually dissociative influence of the generative compositional processes. Shifting dynamics and textures let the listener infer their own fears to the strangeness, or find empathic resolve in the leading, dreamlike narrative. A rich rhythmic and harmonic palette that references and extends the stylings of contemporary electronic music, exploiting a range of software and hardware tools along with fieldsourced recordings, samples and voice processing. The sound artists responsible frequently work with radical applications of acousmatic and concrete techniques, here moderated, to serve an impression of musical norms, gradually revealing little that concedes to convention.

Cast in sediments of the last great flood, Pangaean Permafaction stands as a collective of experimental sound artists who may never physically meet.

Current projects are traversing four points of the globe, between participants in Australia and England:

*A Patch Of Nettles* — a solo sound project from small town New South Wales, Australia, keeping busy adapting field recordings to acousmatic arrangements, constructing electronic instruments and collaborating with strangers. Nettles is regular contributor to the avant garde Disquiet Junto project and is published on Bandcamp and Soundcloud.

*Pytchblend* — an English sound artist whose work studies the half-awake moments before the onset of sleep using AMSR and frisson-inducing spectral manipulation into audio dreamlets. Pytchblend is a regular on RTÉ’s Nova in Ireland, Berlin Community Radio and is published on Bandcamp and Soundcloud and youtube.

*TheNumbersInTheDream* — an English multi-instrumental itinerant sorcerer, wearing a hat of eternal paradox. At times, he is not real. Other times he creates warmly received echoing melodies shrouded by inscrutable ghost voices. Nick can be found on the Fag Ash Records net label, Soundcloud , youtube and spinning sound on Mixcloud where he inexorably winds new genres in song.

*KeithysDunimselfaMischief* — an Australian sound artist who poses the question, "does the silence create the sound or does the sound create the silence?" He finds that the answer is unreservedly, “yes it does”. He has received regular Australian airplay on RN's Sound Quality , and Bay FM in northern NSW. He enjoys sleeping and is published on Soundcloud.

I’m enamored with the idea of self(ish)-help and prescriptions for deeper purpose – though, after iterations of these across centuries, we’re still fucked up. We can’t focus. We get a notion and don’t follow through because we’re constantly distracted. Life is easier with distractions. It is a mental frenzy. Add to that the 2016 election in my nation, and I’m personally, uncomfortably numb.

That’s what I’m doing with this work: showing you the battle between mental frenzy and ASMR, hypnotism, Gematria, meditation, and a bunch of cult-speak I was mired in, though recently shrugged off after 21 years etc.

A poetical sound creation 2017
Voices, sounds, music and cut : Sonja B. Berg
Contains fragments of poetical texts of contemporary authors in french and italian.

I like to create universes of poetical and strong images, dance with sound and musique
explorations, go beyond limits, transmit my passion of the art of playing with reality and
share the freedom to redefine it. I’m inspired by everything that is alive and study human
relationships like one would listen to a marvellous story. Reliance speaks about memory
and time, and the beauty of wandering into different worlds as we do in dreams.

Sonja B. Berg is an international performance artist born in Berlin, lives and works in Toulouse/France. Has been working and collaborating with festivals, theatres and institutions in France, Danmark, Poland, USA, Italy, Germany and Sweden. She is working on embodied ritual and the poetical action.

This is a selection of seven shows from ‘radioart106fm’ compiled for radiophrenia 2017. It contains the creations of female Radio and Sound artists

A radiophonic essay by Floy krouchi, Hélène Lucien and Marc Pallain

How to make visible the invisible radioactivity? Hélène Lucien et Marc Pallain went on the field, in the exclusion zone around Fukushima nuclear plant. They entrusted the sonic composition of this experience to the sound artist Floy Krouchi.

To reveal the imprint of radioactivity and crystallise a concrete, undeniable proof of the invisible, Héléne Lucien (a plastic artist) and Marc Pallain (a photographer) placed, in 2012, just one year after the catastrophe, and in 2016, some analog blank medical radiographic films in the exclusion zone around Fukushima nuclear plant. They subjected them to ionising radiation during variable periods ( 3 to 37 days) and different levels of radiation (between 3.8 microSievert/h and 40 microSievert/h). The result is a series of images called "Chronoradiograms", real internal landscapes ( inner visions) resting on photography as a revelator of the index of radioactivity.

In “Fukushima Radiography”, the sound creation was composed by Floy Krouchi from the sounds collected by Hélène Lucien and Marc Pallain in Fukushima with, as a central element, stretched, unrecognizable and essential: the dosimeter. She also questions the two artists about their work in the Fukushima exclusion zone, and their physical sensations while being exposed to high rates of radiation. It implies the question of subjectivity, of the risk ,of the commitment and the involvement of the body in the contaminated zone.

Simultaneously, the poetic and visionary writing of the poet Jotaro Wakamatsu recreates images through a series of premonitory poems recited in French and Japanese by
Gyohel Zaitsu. These poems deal with the ineluctable coming catastrophe on the Fukushima zone, echoing that of Tchernobyl which had deeply impressed the poet following his stay in1987.

With excerpts from « Hitono Akashi » : Jotaro Wakamatsu translated from english by Jacques and Jacqueline Krouchi
With: Gyohei Zaitsu, Jotaro Wakamatsu, Michael Ferrier, Madame Takahashi.
Additional text Hélène Lucien and Marc Pallain
Original composition Floy Krouchi

Produced and presented by Meira Asher, The program’s host station KolHaCampus106fm closed down on August 31, 2017. Between the summers of 2014 and 2017, Meira aired 107 programs and several specials, part of which were Radia.fm member stations productions.

In the aftermath of this agonising farewell, ‘radioart106fm’ is reforming and will reappear soon, starting with a monthly show on Radio Campus Bruxelles in 2018.

An experimental durational piece which utilises field recordings made in Sri Lanka between February and April 2017 and in Glasgow between August and October 2017. These recordings are combined, compared and contrasted to explore musical commonalities in aspects of urban and natural soundscapes as well as spoken word and song.
My aim is to create an abstract illustration of echoes which I have identified between two very vibrant soundscapes, which I have found myself immersed in this year.

Ross Whyte is a composer and sound artist. In 2012 he completed a practice-based PhD in Musical Composition where his field of research was impermanence in audio-visual intermedia and headphone-specific composition. His compositional output in recent years has often included collaborations with artists of disciplines different from my own, including dance, theatre, sculpture and web design. Since early 2016 he has worked as one half of the Gaelic ambient electronica duo, WHɎTE with singer-songwriter Alasdair Whyte. Their acclaimed debut album, Fairich, was released in 2016 and has received positive reviews and regular national and international radio airplay.

“100 Books” is a work for 100 voices, and consists of a marathon reading of 100 variations of the same poem, all of them written by John Bently. It is a collective act, a celebration of the power and commitment of released words, an elegy to the song, the poem, the human voice. It is a reminder that no matter how ferocious the tyranny, there are some things that cannot be erased, burned, suppressed, enslaved, imprisoned or silenced. You can kill the singers but never the song, once sung.

Featuring the voices of (amongst others):

John Bently
Amanda Palmer
Iain Sinclair
Brian Catling
Ben Rivers
Carol Chant
Mikey Kirkpatrick
Gareth Evans
Marcia Farquhar

A series of radio programs By Dani Gal and Achim Lengerer. Originally commissioned by Documenta 14.

The radio is an acousmatic instrument. Listeners do not see the origin of the sound,
their experience is shaped both by the their own interpretation, and the manipulation
of the producer in a political system.

Our programs work on the space between documentary and Musique concrète.
Each show focuses on political events that are connected to acoustic events. This
creates an acousmatic documentary where the programs become sound-objects.
The programs response to the 'image saturated society' discourse, by asking what is
the function of sound as a document in times of live video feeds that can be broadcast
by anyone.

Dani Gal (born 1975, Jerusalem) lives and works in Berlin. He studied at the Bezalel
Academy for Art and Design in Jerusalem; the Staatliche Hochschule für Bildende
Künste Städelschule in Frankfurt; and the Cooper Union in New York. His flms and
works have been shown widely, including: Documenta 14, 54th Venice Biennale
(2011), The Istanbul Biennale (2011), The New Museum New York (2012),
Kunsthalle St. Gallen Swizerland (2013), The Jewish museum New York (2014),
Berlinale Forum Expanded (2014), Kunsthaus Zurich (2015) Kunsthalle Wien (2015)
And more.

Achim Lengerer works on political questions of speech and language that he
thematizes in performances, radio plays or spatializes within installations and
publications. Lengerer founded different collaborative projects such as freitagsküche
in Frankfurt a. M. and voiceoverhead, with Dani Gal. Since 2009 Lengerer runs the
Berlin based showroom and publishing house Scriptings. Different Artists are invited
– all of which are working with the formats of script and text within their processes of
production. Lengerer is currently working on his Ph.D. at Goldsmiths, University of
London, UK, on the format of the rehearsal as an actual format for socio-political
negotiations.

For the last five years I have taken a sample from every video I watch on my laptop. As a tip of the hat to William Burroughs and Robert Anton Wilson I take the sample from the 23rd minute. Each sample is arranged and layered chronologically, constructing an aleatory narrative, a random DJ mix of dialogue, music and foley, a self portrait of viewing habits and memory. VHS rips merge with Blu Ray restorations, youtube binges mingle with abandoned box sets.

Barry Burns is not the bloke out of Mogwai, its a different, unsuccessful one. He is the co-manager of Radiophrenia and has used his immense power to give himself the highly coveted 5am slot.

1. Optic Nerve – Mirror

This song explores how a sense of self can fragment over time, as the relationship of who you are and your physical body wane. It intensifies this sense of dislocation using the subliminal sounds of radios retuning and detuning as a percussive base.

Optic Nerve are a musical and visual arts group based in Edinburgh and London consisting of Cosima Cobley Carr and Grant Campbell. They have released four individual multimedia works and are currently also in the process of finishing a larger project, which they aim to present live in an immersive multimedia performance. Recently they also performed as sound carriers for Japanese musician Damo Suzuki.

2. Vincent Eoppolo - Hello

I view my works as a synthesis of various sound art traditions including musique concrete, acousmatic music and radio art. In my work I strive to present brief moments of the world we are living in. Society in the continuing process of realizing itself. Our relationship with each other, with technology, our morality, spirituality, sexuality, our anxieties and fears. In many ways my works are like sociological and psychological commentaries. My work has been featured on Bernard Clarke's program Nova on RTE's Lyric FM, Phaune Radio from Montpellier, France as well as Radio Art International on CHOQ Radio in Montreal. My works were recently presented at the 2017 New York City Electro-Acoustic Music Festival.

3. Luke Pell – Lucy Cash Out of Touch

Some Words to Wander With are a series of recordings as part of In the Ink Dark, a dance and a poem made from from memory and conversation. A project from Luke Pell and collaborators. Created as part of the project invited voices - artists who make dances, whose works are both poetic and choreographic - offer a collection of musings that speak to words and to dances, bodies and buildings, science and nature, to thought and to feeling, to memory, materiality, landscape and loss. They are wisdoms for living, some words to wander with where you live, at work, at rest, at home, away.

Fascinated by detail, nuances of time, texture, memory and landscape Luke Pell is a maker and curator who collaborates with other artists and organisations imagining alternative contexts for performance, participation and discourse that might reveal wisdoms for living. Noticing threads that weave between people and place his artistic projects take form as intimate encounters, poetic objects, installations and environments - choreographies - for physical and virtual spaces.

5. Maria Papadomanolaki – Messtrument improvisation

Consisting of a close-circuited array of transmitters, receivers, microphones and other electronics, the messtrument is a feedback-driven platform (rather than instrument) for performing alone or in the context of ensembles. Based on the idea of improvising with the sounds and acoustics of a particular site, the messtrument is more than a noise generator as it uses the ether as it 'mixing console'

This is a recording of a recent messtrument improvisation/demonstration for the students of the Digital Music and Sound Arts course at the University of Brighton.

7. Marjorie van Halteren and Jeff Gburek - Strange Ambitions

He's in Poland, she's in Northern France. Two Americans abroad, mapping the mysterious triangular territory of sound recording, instrument creation and poetry across the continent.
Working with voice, guitar, percussion, samples, invented instruments and words, their work features sounds of this world, of other worlds, philosophic crosstalk, voice-as- texture, bird tongues, field recording requiems, ancient drumming, voices on the edge of sleep...exploring sound/music/text in equal balance....

8. S van der Linden - Monolog GIRL

Omigosh! I'm away with the fairies! I ruminate, let my dreams marinate, stare into space or to this low energy abstraction who's always pushing his hair back during dinner. He is sooooo FUNNY! This totally whimsical and lovely someone gazes at me with this dreamy look in his eyes that smoothes all over and soothes deep aches and pains on its pathway into the body, easing tension at a deep level, helping relieve fatigue and greatly reviving low sympathetic levels. I concentrate on the reduced appearance of this warm abstraction from immediate reality. Sissy and soft. Establishing a sense of calm that settles upon everyone present.

HOW MINDFUL CAN U B? HOW MINDFUL R U? is an experimental composition exploring agency in mental and spiritual well-being amidst a landscape of uncontrollable chaos.

Platitudes is a collaboration between interdisciplinary artists Julia Dyck and James Goddard. Platitudes uses voice / bent data / musical instruments / samples and field recordings to create audio performances that explore the layering of symbolic ontologies in our contemporary life, digital and otherwise. PLATITUDES wonders how many ways there are to say the things that are said.

In 1999 me and my partner decorated a bedroom for our baby son in a Patrick Heron style. 18 years later I was asked to play a show in reaction to Heron’s ‘Red Table’ painting. I joined these two experiences together recording my partner talking about the how and why we painted the room and writing text sound pieces (based on Heron’s paintings) for me and my daughter to recite.

I also recorded two 20 minute domestic field recordings, one for each speaker, and mixed the spoken word and text performances onto this canvas.

My son declined to take part.

Sound mixing and text pieces: Joe Posset

I’ve been working with Dictaphones and old tape recorders making slurred sounds for the last 10 years. Using a mixture of careful composition and reckless improvisation I’ve managed to put out over 30 tapes and CDrs and play solo and in wonderful collaborations up and down the UK. I’m a lucky man. More recently I’ve started using abstract vocal sounds and words to create Dada-esque poems.

This is an imagined conversation loosely based on the lives of Daisy and Violet Hilton, conjoined twins born in the UK in 1911. The Hiltons were displayed in circuses in Europe and toured the U.S. sideshow, vaudeville and burlesque circuits in the 1920s and 1930s. They’re retired now. They whisper themselves to sleep while conjuring what death will feel like when it comes to them both. There’s a ghosted imprint of mourning of those attached to us, whether by our own sinew or the withered wings of dead seabirds. Their single knotted torso extends beyond immediate and singular relationships.

My audiophilia whispers into the radio's ear with documentaries and poetic narratives airing globally via artist-curated programming. Listening along the central California coast, I teach production artistry online at The New School for Public Engagement and curate Earlid, a virtual space for adventurous sound artistry, radiophonics and curious listeners where I recently co-moderated the online forum, "Radio's Art."

Symphony No. 1 is a written symphony that is only hearable for the inner ear, thereby each listening experience will be different from each other, and every listening experience will be totally valid.

How to perform the piece: Symphony No. 1 should be read up loud in the radio by a narrator. The narrator would decide how the speed of words should be.

About "Symphony No. 1 - Music for the inner ear":

Is it possible to create imaginary music only hearable for the inner ear of the listener? A kind of music in which the listener also becomes the composer? A utopic kind of music in which anything therefore is possible? Can written stories about sound manifest themselves as imaginary pieces of music inside the listeners mind brought to life using the inner ear?
Can the story about a piece of art, become the piece of art? These questions are the subject of composer Niels Lyhne Løkkegaards work.

Niels Lyhne Løkkegaard is interested in how to democratize the act of creating, and is looking into the utopic space of imaginary music as a method of composing and as a catalyst for creating. On a philosophical level Niels Lyhne Løkkegaard is interested in how stories about music can be accepted as being music detached from any psychical manifestation, and how narratives are capable of constituting reality. How can this narrative metasphere be a space for artistic action in what could be described as curatorial times?

Niels Lyhne Løkkegaard is a sound artist and composer who studied at Denmark’s Rhythmic Music Conservatory and the School of Architecture of the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts. He has created a wide range of works and sound releases that operate at the intersection of experimental music and sound art, a.o. the soundtrack for MoMA’s René Magritte exhibition The Mystery of the Ordinary in 2013. Niels Lyhne Løkkegaard considers his compositional work to be a basic research in sound. He is interested in exploring the sensuousness of sound, and he wants his music to stimulate new ways of approaching sound. Over the recent years Niels Lyhne Løkkegaard has experimented with creating music that lets the instruments transcend their inherent sonic norms and reappear as new, untouched sound. In the work series SOUND X SOUND he explores this by way of multiplication. He has written and recorded the seven pieces of SOUND X SOUND from 2013 to 2016 – a series of works multiplying one instrument a number of times: One piece is written for 9 pianos, another for 10 hi-hats and so on. Løkkegaards interest in facilitating a more "democratic" approach to creating music, has also lead him into creating imaginary pieces of "music for the inner ear" and creating the curatorial non-event Curatorium.

This work comprises field and forgotten recordings, small town/city centre conversations and sounds with audio effects, synths and acoustics. It tries to promote then reign back the constant battle experienced, to lesser or greater degrees, of the wild and tame sides of personality and behaviour. We experience brooding on madness with inner thoughts in and out of context of everyday living, or getting in a state where our outer actions and words lead us away from our ‘actual’ personalities, towards the Steppenwolfesque. Contrastingly we can be content in situations where we should be stressed, angry, sad or irritable - sound and music, whether audible to everyone or playing in our minds often play a part in this.

Worth listening out for are roaring polar bears, wind up chickens, rusty curtain hooks, clicking reindeer heel cartilage, geese, starlings on a Summers night, diaries, bin store gadgies, drunks, art exhibitions, junior football, domestication as an unattainable myth, sobriety, child's play, shop ambience and last chance yelps.

No longer acceptable as entertainment student party and cheap deal booze nights got sacked for hard clubbing and sonic experimentation - only the good stuff from then on was pursued. The dawn of multitrack recording ensued with late night sessions of improvised intoxicated songs with Ryan Lambie as Johns Indie Disco. The JID years were a productive period, tracks of techno punk quality and some flashes of pure genius, but only 3 live gigs, meant the main means of promotion was handing out home burnt CDs in the street. The Ladywell Lout era then ensued, involving the circle of contributors from JID with semi-documentary based audio on gala days, gadgies, losers and high rises.

In this spontaneous audio piece Anna Zett explores the interview as a form of monologue and a form of trialogue. It is centered around the artist's visit at a professional fortune tellers office in Beijing.She has brought her own deck of modernist tarot cards, he is willing to share his approach to situation analysis and fate calculation according to Chinese traditions. Mediated by a third person who is serving as translator, they enter a conversation about chance.

Anna Zett has written and directed two radio plays for the public radio in Germany, both of them dealing with voice-based oracles and the challenge of communication.
