For Radiophrenia, Neo and Charles will present an Image Broadcast. Focusing on radio’s material potential, the broadcast will suspend a single image via audio transmission, allowing it to interface with the sonic and visual landscape of its reception (and disintegration.) The image was produced during a previous Image Broadcast, documenting not the audio itself but the space in which it was heard. Here a prior broadcast finds its way into the current, processed once again through a series of material translations.

Neo Gibson is a musician, releasing music under the alias 7038634357.  Charles Stobbs is a part-time lecturer.  Together they have produced radio broadcasts and installations under their own names, and as Maitre D'. Previously they have been hosted by Wave Farm, the Jacob Lawrence Gallery, Veronica, and Montez Press Radio.

Stories of radical land ownership in North Lewis is a project produced in collaboration with artist Virginia Hutchison, that brings together narratives surrounding the community land buyout of the Galson Estate in 2007. Developed in conversation with artists Stephen Hurrel and Fiona Rennie, the project weaves together local audio archives and interviews and brings them into contemporary conversations surrounding community land ownership.

Agnes Rennie recounts the events that lead up to the buyout and the establishment of the Urras – the Galson EstateTrust. Underpinning the interviews are recitals of the Gaelic place-names that define Galson, in collaboration with Fiona Rennie, and Seismic Sounds, produced by Stephen Hurrel.

Agnes Rennie is the chair of the Galson Estate Trust and Vice Chair of Community Land Scotland.

Stories of radical landownership in North Lewis – full project info

Produced in collaboration with artist Virginia Hutchison this project brings together narratives surrounding the community land buyout of the Galson Estate in 2007.Created during the COVID pandemic in 2020/2021 the project weaves together local audio archives and interviews and brings them into contemporary conversations surrounding community land ownership. With access and social distancing measures in mind the project has taken the form of a series of cast bronze artefacts temporarily sited in the landscape of North Lewis. Embedded with digital QR codes the artefacts link visitors directly to the audio works via mobile phone.

Each of the six objects – a series of cast bronze artworks moulded from cut peat – contain conversations recorded with members of the local community. Two out of six of the artworks remain open as audio project spaces for future conversations.

“If you didn’t know the names of these places you couldn’t talk about them..”[1]

Underpinning the interviews are recitals of the Gaelic place-names that define North Lewis. A gentle call and response between Gaelic and English - though not a direct translation - through the landscape, geography and history of the area.

Looking out onto the Barvas moor visitors can be mistaken for thinking that it is an empty landscape. But listening closely to the Gaelic expressions used to describe the environment of North Lewis gives a sense of the intimate and complex relationship between people and place. A language embedded within local culture and knowledge and not always translatable.

“Space doesn’t become a place until you interact with it. It doesn’t become a place until you name it…and it becomes a place in relation to somewhere or something else..ie. it’s always changing.”[2]

Permeating the voices within the audio works are recordings made from the constant movements and tectonic shifts beneath the Earth’s surface. Produced by artist Stephen Hurrel, the seismic sounds provide layers to the stories and issues that surround engagement with the landscape. Hurrel’s work with Seismic Sounds and with Gaelic speaking communities in Barra, weaves closely into the stories of radical landownership in North Lewis. Where these conversations meet and overlap presents opportunities for wider discussions around land reform in Scotland.

Many thanks to the Galson Estate staff and community. Special thanks to Agnes and Frank Rennie, Lisa Maclean, Annie MacSween, Iain Gordon Macdonald, Richard Collins (Edinburgh University), Edinburgh College of Art and Blackbay Recording Studios.

This project was produced in conversation with artists Stephen Hurrel and Fiona Rennie.

1) Christian de Mouilpied Sancto - Feel So Close - Radio Edit

Synopsis: 

"Feel So Close - Radio Edit" is a short work of AI radio theatre. Adapting the lyrics of Calvin Harris's eponymous EDM hit, Samuel Beckett's radio play All That Fall, and my text messages, the piece probes the strangely similar ways in which both radio and the pandemic have made the home into unhomely setting. The artificial poignancy of the neural-net voices' recitation—underscored by lines about manipulating texts and moods—echoes the irony of the Calvin Harris track: a dancefloor banger about the ecstasy of closeness repackaged for socially distant radio audiences.

Bio:

Christian de Mouilpied Sancto isan artist, musician, and researcher. At present he is a PhD student in Visual and Cultural Studies at the University of Rochester, New York. Previously, he studied composition at Goldsmiths, University of London.

Generative Radio is crawling in and between internet’s fiber-optic cables. A bug that escaped the algorithm now seeks lost or found sounds, spitting back sonic absurdities.

Generative Radio is a system that sorts through the large and growing archives of audio content found on the web, generating an algorithmic online radio stream.

It was conceived by KeDiMouRa and realised by Dimitri Aatos Ellinas in 2017.

Generative Radio Cut-Ups is a fixed and edited version of the stream marking the official release of https://loskop.radio/ where it will go live.

Active since 2013, the Center for Research and Propagation of Musical Turmoil (KeDiMouRa) avidly explores sound and play, in real-time formations and archival contexts.
It was formed in Corfu, Greece as an answer to the common need of its members for a flexible group structure where they could explore collaborative and playful ways of musical interaction, performance and composition.
 KeDiMouRa has initiated numerous concerts, workshops and large-scale events related to improvisation, inviting and collaborating with various musicians and artists.

Their latest project is the experimental online radio Loskop (https://loskop.radio).

3) Anne Marie Deacy & Lesego Rampolokeng - Recalibrating Reason

A collaboration between sound artist Anne MarieDeacy and the acclaimed South African spoken word/poet Lesego Rampolokeng.Their exchange began after both were curated by Brent Meistre into a groupexhibition ‘Broken Vessels’ for Galway International Arts Festival in 2021 andrealising they both had a penchant for radio.

Lesego’s powerful poetry had a huge effect on Anne Marie and led to this transmission piece.

In the powerful spoken word piece ‘Riddim, Rime Reason’,  Lesego, under a satirical eye, tells of truth and lies, displacement, pain, oppression and destruction in hishomeland. Underneath and interwoven into his words, low frequency celestialtuning forks vibrate, creating dissonance and responding in resonance. This work is an attempt at exploring the healing and transformative aspect of soundand sounding.

Anne Marie Deacy is a sound artist and fieldrecordist, based in Co.Galway, Ireland. Field recording is the foundation of her practice and using various devices she explores the heard and discreet sounds of the urban and rural landscape. She found a home for all her lost and found ideas in the medium of radio transmission and it is a platform from which she has been exploring themes around nostalgia, lost formats, sound as activism, community grieving and the inherent need we have to connect.

Lesego Rampolokeng is a prolific South African performance poet and playwright. He was born into a Catholic, working-class family in Soweto, then a Johannesburg township. His mother raised him alone after the early death of his father, who worked in a platinum mine. Rampolokeng briefly studied law at the University of the North. The violence and Catholicism of his childhood inform his poetry’s blunt, unflinching examination of degradation and oppression. Oral folk traditions and contemporary rap music echo throughout his work.

Blomma is anexcerpt from a sound installation exhibited together with sculptures by Jack O’Flynn, at the Pipe Factory in 2018.The exhibition presented a curious landscape of strange growths and visceralsounds. The original piece is 29 minutes long and produced for 6 audiochannels.

[2]Frank Rennie, Dùthcas 2020, The Changing Outer Hebrides – Galson and the meaning of Place

This work was made using fields recordings, DIY instruments, voice and instrumentation. Personal moments captured, mistakes latched onto, manipulated and edited into a series of sound images.

Composed during summer 2021, during a time of personal change and new beginnings. The work uses various field recordings made over the past 20 years that had meaning, memories and connection for me, both personally and in my sound explorations, representing reflections on the past, and changes to come.

Hilary Mullaney is an Irish composer and sound artist based in the North West of Ireland. Active in this field for over 20 years, her works are widely performed and broadcast, most recently for Audiosphere. Sound Experimentation 1980-2020, the first large-scale contemporary art exhibition of sound works, with no images or objects, at Museo Reina Sofía, Madrid. Place informs her practice, using field recordings, improvisation and everyday experiences to explore memories and associations through sound. Psychogeography merges with an interest in psychoanalysis, and from there the work unfolds and reveals itself through sound and listening.

“convenient words/exactly lost” pokes at thedifference between intention and reception in radio transmission. BradleyNjus’s text is already lost somewhat to us listeners–he has put the originalpoem through a series of processes rendering it fractured and filtered. Thisnew facsimile is set by Ralph Lewis for Mike Minarcek. As rain pours outside ofhis car on Philo Road in Urbana, Illinois, Minarcek delivers the somewhatcryptic text with his voice and hands, puzzling  through its notions andfilling in what is missing with his steering wheel. What else could be lostthroughout this broadcast?

Mike Minarcek is a percussionist and drummer whorecently received his doctorate from the University of Illinois. Previously, aninstructor at Illinois Wesleyan University, he has been selected as a finalistin the Krannert Debut Artist Competition and has commissioned and performedworks from Emma O’Halloran and Joe Meland. Bradley Njus is a writer based in Los Angeles. His earliestradio memories are of hours spent crouched next to the tape deck, ready to hitrecord when his favorite songs came on. Ralph Lewis is a composer who loves the collaborative, public, andexperimental qualities of radio art.

1) Sebastiane Hegarty - Séance for stones radio mast hour hand and harp

At the former site of Marconi’s radio experimentation station on the Isle of wight, the ghostly strum of an hour-hand plucks notes from thin air as it plays ‘automatically’ on the strings of an abandoned autoharp. Divined in séance with the breeze, this paranormal lullaby, is accompanied by the litho-telegraphy of pebbles tapping away at the concrete remains of a lost radio tower. As it tests substance, this di-di-dit continues the transmission of the first wireless signal sent out‘over the horizon’ one hundred and twenty-one years hence.
Litho-telegraphy choreographed and performed by Julia Hall.

Sebastiane Hegarty’s creative practice explores the relationship between time, place and remembering. Recent works focus on the materiality of sound and the haunted geographies of the audible, silent and unheard.These works are realised in the form of field recordings, composition, performed phonographic objects, failed actions, and lost radio transmissions.

3) Kiera Mulhern -  Self-auscultation 24-05-020 

From the album 'De ossibus 20'.

I have recorded an hour long track with mainly a bit of Digitakt/Blofeld for drones and a bit of 110 hertz spirituality mixed into some 2020/2021 locked down and unlocked down samples with some pre-Covid world recordings for a bit of contrast.

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.

This will let you hang upside down from the dancefloor. Natural scientist Rym Nouioua and sound art curator Sascha Brosamer will guide you to scientific studies and environmental issues in artistic contexts. In this episode of a documentary-style podcast about bio-art, bat sounds and experimental music you’ll learn about ultrasonic sounds, bioacoustics and Covid-19 spread from bats. Furthermore you will listen to some tracks made mainly by bat sounds, based on a sound library from their current project “The Bat effect ''. Besides the communication of bats by recording the ultrasonic noises and presenting them into sound, we will illustrate the interrelation of human and non-human and create points of contact of human and animal shared living spaces.

Taken from recordings made during a short stay in Hong Kong this sound collage includes the sounds of traffic, typhoons, national parks, a library, a monastery, ashopping mall, the underground, a museum and a gift shop. Evoking the contrasts that make up the city.

First entering a studio as a bass player, Thomas Finbarr soon learnt his way around both analogue and digital recording. After an MSc in Sound Design at EdinburghUniversity he has worked as a recordist, sound designer and dialogue editor as well as creating his own sound pieces for festivals theatre productions and installations, including pieces at the Perth Concert Hall in Scotland andMedialab Prado in Madrid. He is currently living in Barcelona.

2. Clarinda Tse & Craig Hunter- (mildly) toxic

Toxicityis such a loaded term, and foraging wild fungi highlights the lack of nuanceattached to the various uses. There is no dichotomy, but a spectrum oftoxicity, a lack of information and a conversation based on fear. This pieceshares our experience of consuming (mildly) toxic mushrooms.

Craig Hunter is a journalist, music and radio enthusiast. Clarinda Tse is an interdisciplinary artist, listener, facilitator, movement practitioner, Hong Kong-born and Glasgow-based. She works across being a sofa barnacle and a mutating muscle.@clarindatse     @koalacraig

3 Jan Sparsam - Mauerlunge

The tracks were composed for a longer radio show documentary about the sonification of electromagnetic fields through induction, thereby revealing a new spectrum of sound in our environment. The basic sounds were recorded with a self-built device called"Elektrosluch" (after the design of JonášGruska), with which such fields can be transformed into audio signals. The track “Strippe” (colloquial for “phone”) is a recording of a DSL system. The Track “Mauerlunge” (“WallLung”) is a collage of field recordings and wire-tapped sounds from hi-fi speaker cables. Both tracks are previously released under my solo moniker monadnode.

My name is Jan, I am a sociologist and musician from Freiburg, the most southwestern end of Germany. I play guitar in a garage punk band and compose music individually as monad node, using a wide array of instruments and self-built devices like synthesizers, tape loops, drum machines as well as a ton of effects that I self-soldered. I also produce a monthly radio show with two friends in which we discuss current releases fromthe field of experimental music. The show is called "Büchse Buntes"(roughly translatable as pick-n-mix) and runs on the free radio station"Radio Dreyeckland" (http://www.rdl.de).

4. Doriane Souilhol -Girls pity boum onomatopoeia

Collage of onomatopoeias, noises, fictitious languages of the post-punk scene with the voices of Lizzy Mercier Descloux -Pylon - Vivien Goldman ...  This short sound piece is part of the INNUENDO project which started in 2019 in collaboration with the artist Amandine Rué. We shared music and focused on the gender of this music, on my side feminist punk and post-punk, and for Amandinehair metal. The lyrics, the poses, the gestures, the clothes.

5. Chelidon Frame  - The Seasons Change in a Somber Montage

Like most of the tracks I've composed recently under the name Chelidon Frame, even "The Seasons Change in Somber Montage" has been realized during lockdowns and red zones. With this song, I've moved in two directions: on the one hand, heavily processing raw sound to make them completely unrecognizable on the other, slightly modifying some field recordings to realize an alien yet familiar soundscape.The overall aim was to combine e recreate an imaginary landscape of glitches and noises, a travel of the mind during restricted times.

Chelidon Frame is an experimental electronic music project that mainly works with fieldrecordings, radio interferences, guitars and processed sounds. His installations are experienced-based and suggest a dialogue between the location (both virtual and physical) and the sounds proposed, aiming to deliver a message in the simpler yet most effective way. The use of code, data analysis and data-driven sounds, allow information to be experienced anew. In his studioworks and live sets different layers of sounds - guitars, synthesizers and custom-made instruments - piles up creating unexpected new soundscapes.

6. Johanna Linsley with Jan Mertens - Sonic Spectral Summoning

This learning experience is aimed at equipping participants with the tools necessary to identify, isolate and summon your own ghostly spectre from the acoustic atmosphere of your choice. Every ringtone, white noise machine, laptop fan or refrigerator buzz has the potential to contain a latent haunting. Every inside joke, gossip circuit and open secret might, if you listen the right way, have the capacity to raise the dead. Drawing on common affects like revenge, melancholy and ecstatic force to tune your senses, you will develop a sensitivity to wraiths, apparitions, and lingering presences. (Originally commissioned for Queer Extension)

Johanna Linsley is an artist and researcher based in Dundee, Scotland.  She works across performance, interdisciplinary writing and sound. Her ongoing creative collaboration Stolen Voices, with Rebecca Collins, develops 'sonic detection' as a way of thinking expansively about site and place.  Her work has been presented in the UK and internationally, in venues including the Museum of Modern Art (New York), the Victoria & AlbertMuseum (London), the Wellcome Collection and the Centre for Contemporary Art(Glasgow). She is a Lecturer in Creative Practice at the University of Dundee.She collaborates often with Jan Mertens, a sound artist also based in Dundee. http://www.jhlinsley.com   https://soundcloud.com/janmertens      https://www.queerextension.org/

7. Ryan Lambie - Taking an audiosniffer for a walk (extract)

A shorter than planned piece based around sounds captured on a walk with a SOMA Ether electromagnetic audio receiver.  File then manipulated / mixed in the Borderlands granular app (on an Ipad in a caravan in Cornwall).  Longer piece to be uploaded to bandcamp at the end of Feb 2022.  Lo-fi experimental field recording artist from the Scottish central belt. Work mainly revolves around one take Iphone 5s and Sony ICD-UX560 voice recordings. Everyday sounds of the streets, radio static, random pub conversations and feedback. Borderline sound art. 

8. Johnny Dixon - Pill Pieces 6 

Only Transition is an exploration of presence within the soundscape of the Cairngorms. The lochs, the river, the wind, the rain, the endless heather and mountains of granite covered in green inviting the traveler to step further into their wealth. Over a week spent exploring the paths and hills of Glenshee, sound marks big and small slowly emerge, a brief introduction to the history and spirits that forged its terrain.

Stories of radical land ownership in North Lewis is a project produced in collaboration with artist Virginia Hutchison, that brings together narratives surrounding the community land buyout of the Galson Estate in 2007. Developed in conversation with artists Stephen Hurrel and Fiona Rennie, the project weaves together local audio archives and interviews and brings them into contemporary conversations surrounding community land ownership. 

Chapter 6 presents recitals of the Gaelic place-names that define North Dell, a gentle call and response between Gaelic and English - though not a direct translation - through the landscape, geography and history of the area. Underpinning the recital are Seismic Sounds, produced by Stephen Hurrel.

Stories of radical landownership in North Lewis – full project info

Produced in collaboration with artist Virginia Hutchison this project brings together narratives surrounding the community land buyout of the Galson Estate in 2007. Created during the COVID pandemic in 2020/2021 the project weaves together local audio archives and interviews and brings them into contemporary conversations surrounding community land ownership. With access and social distancing measures in mind the project has taken the form of a series of cast bronze artefacts temporarily sited in the landscape of North Lewis. Embedded with digital QR codes the artefacts link visitors directly to the audio works via mobile phone.

Each of the six objects – a series of cast bronze artworks moulded from cut peat – contain conversations recorded with members of the local community. Two out of six of the artworks remain open as audio project spaces for future conversations.

“If you didn’t know the names of these places you couldn’t talk about them..”

Underpinning the interviews are recitals of the Gaelic place-names that define North Lewis. A gentle call and response between Gaelic and English - though not a direct translation - through the landscape, geography and history of the area.

Looking out onto the Barvas moor visitors can be mistaken for thinking that it is an empty landscape. But listening closely to the Gaelic expressions used to describe the environment of North Lewis gives a sense of the intimate and complex relationship between people and place. A language embedded within local culture and knowledge and not always translatable.

“Space doesn’t become a place until you interact with it. It doesn’t become a place until you name it…and it becomes a place in relation to somewhere or something else..ie. it’s always changing.”

Permeating the voices within the audio works are recordings made from the constant movements and tectonic shifts beneath the Earth’s surface. Produced by artist Stephen Hurrel, the seismic sounds provide layers to the stories and issues that surround engagement with the landscape. Hurrel’s work with Seismic Sounds and with Gaelic speaking communities in Barra, weaves closely into the stories of radical landownership in North Lewis.  Where these conversations meet and overlap presents opportunities for wider discussions around land reform in Scotland.

Many thanks to the Galson Estate staff and community. Special thanks to Agnes and Frank Rennie, Lisa Maclean, Annie MacSween, Iain Gordon Macdonald, Richard Collins (Edinburgh University), Edinburgh College of Art and Blackbay Recording Studios.

This project was produced in conversation with artists Stephen Hurrel and Fiona Rennie.

03) Marco Paltrinieri - Together 

From the album 'The Weaver'.

The Weaver is the debut solo album by the multidisciplinary artist and Discipula collective member Marco Paltrinieri.

Merging spoken words with field recordings, electro-acoustic textures and relics of found melodies, The Weaver brings to life, across 6 movements, the memories and thoughts of a creature living in a world in which the distinction between reality and simulation, as well as between psychic space and external environment seems to have definitely collapsed.

The album stems from Paltrinieri’s ongoing interest in the cognitive and perceptual mutations caused by the irreversible technologization of our lives. Drawing upon the speculative power of fiction, The Weaver aims at creating a multilayered and non-linear narrative in which sounds and words are used to conjure images from an unknown and yet unsettlingly familiar dimension. 

“Journey Through the Auricle” is a voyage through an elevator centring on exploration and internal and external discovery. Stop one consists of a commission from your ears. They have enlisted our help to clear out the clutter and clatter of what is going on upstairs. Stop two takes you to an unknown land, rich in colour and restorative light beams. While stop three nourishes your roots and provides a sound bath for the senses. Throughout this collaborative piece Siobhain channels the imagined environments through dreamlike synths, while Rhiannon uses metallic and machine-like sound and voices that are not her own.

Siobhain Ma is a sound artist who explores themes of identity, environment and (sometimes) the supernatural in her work.

Rhiannon Walsh is a sometimes audio maker, writer and Reiki practitioner. She enjoys producing content centred around the body, nature, rest and meditation – including ASMR.

Voice onceworks with one sound sample as material base for a composition. A recording ofnonverbal vocalisations made while spending time alone in the flat of a friend,is digitally processed and reimagined.

4) Helen McCrorie and Richy Carey- We know a better word than happy,

Rite#1 is the first of a series of works that inhabit the boundary between composition and sound installation, focused on the theme of the relationship Culture-Nature. This pair is made up of two opposed terms that permeate and repel each other at the same time.Rituality, performance, art have often attempted a connection between the two, despite the difficulty of a mutual exclusion. This work is itself a moment ofreflection about the impossibility of this relationship: it tries to establish a specific rituality, a specific language, unifying sound synthesis, naturalistic and urban field recording in a contemplative flow.

 Manfredi Clemente is a composer and sound artist based in Palermo (IT). His aesthetical research focuses on the phenomenology of recorded sound and sound spaces. He often composes for theatre and performances and works as a sound engineer for classical music recordings. His compositions are played all around the world and have received several international recognitions including: 1^st prize at Prix Presque Rien 2019, prize Banc d’Essai 2018 of the GRM, finalist at Prize Franz Liszt 2017, 1^st Prize at Di_Stanze 2014. At the moment he is Professor of Electroacoustic Composition at the Conservatorio Rossini of Pesaro (IT).

“R-22.2” is a performance collaboratively produced by Catalina Barroso-Luque and Feronia Wennborg. The story follows Refrigerant Gas 22 as they make their way through the distinct environments in a fridge cooling system. R-22 is one and many, embodying both dark and jovial aspects of individual and collective existence. The basis for this domestic sci-fi tale was produced in quarantine using home recordings, noises, voices, and interactions with everyday objects. Originally commissioned as a sound piece for Wysing Broadcast, the story takes new multidimensional form as a performance for Radiophrenia.

Choreography by Salma Françoise Faraji.

Catalina Barroso-Luque is a Mexican artist who constructs narratives, makes images and hosts intimate events. Writing is at the heart of her practice and relies on techniques of performativity and vocality, alongside processes of disassembly, reassembly, and translation. Catalina works with other practitioners. Making is carried across bodies and territories, resulting in artworks that are voiced between tongues. In 2021 Catalina launched She’s a bit much (abitmuch.net) in collaboration with Jude Browning, an online publishing platform that is sensitive, sick and cloyingly sweet. Catalina has also been working with Daniella Valz Gen on Deslices, a correspondence series for Glasgow International 2021, Montez Press Radio (New York 2021) and Desbordes / Deshacer in post[s] (Quito 2022). Other new work include: Berta Esmeralda, a short story about a macaw, Gutter Magazine Vol. 24 (Glasgow 2021;) and Xaxalpa, a Mexican gothic memoir for Bricks from the Kiln V (London 2022).

Taking the elements from around us and making them into music. A collage of reality, times, experience. This being evolved towards radio, records and the internet. Making them anew into a voyage of our perception. The mirror of the collective unconscious. Including voyeurism and black humour. Reflecting the things we love, and placing thing in ridicule. Putting the disparate and colliding them, in careful randomness. We make a true statement of the Public domain Playing with endless juxtaposition, and the media's they a show

1. Wayne Mason with Shawn Blackburn – My Voice Is A Symphony Of Muddy Overlapping Realities 

Wayne Mason reads a cut-up text piece with improvisational noise guitar accompaniment from long time musical collaborator Shawn Blackburn.

Wayne Mason is an experimental writer and sound artist from Florida, USA. He has been published widely in the small press and is the author of several chapbooks. Together with Shawn Blackburn, they perform and record as electronic project Blk/Mas.

2. Anette Gellein – Eg hate å gå på butikken Någen ganger e det greit (I hate going to the store but sometimes it’s alright) 

Mixed field recordings, vocal,guitar and electronic sounds.

Anette Gellein (b.1995) is a multimedia artist currentlybased in Stavanger, Norway.

3. Valeria Muledda and Christoph Penning - Orsa maggiore

Orsa maggiore wasborn as an encounter between two sound artists in the plane of the poetic word.The piece is composed in the exploration of poetry as an experience ofmysterious pronouncing and language as sound. The shared text creates its spacein the darkness of the night, where Ingeborg Bachaman's Orsa Major shines, withthe words of a speech for one of her radio dramas, and those of Sergio Atzeni,taken from his "Passavamo sulla terra leggeri". Together they givelife to a physical vision where sound, poetry and being in the world aretogether earth and cosmos.

Valeria Muledda is a sound and transdisciplinary artist, performer and activist living in Italy. She has been trained in the international panorama of research theatre and in the artistic practice of different languages and instruments. She focuses on the exploration of the body-space relationship as an aesthetic and political experience. Attentive to the processes of individual, collective,urban and eco-social transformation, her research contaminates physical, contemplative, participatory, sound and linguistic practices, aiming to nourish a renewed relationship with the everyday and a continuously developing awareness. In 2012 she founded STUDIOVUOTO, an open and shared laboratory of investigation andcreation.

Christoph Pennig is a composer, sound artist, performer and activist living in Naples. His artistic interests are improvisation and collective works. His works are perception-offers that focus on the non-repeatable and the moment. Itis not the ‘what’ that matters but the ‘how’. He composes acousmatic music as well as pieces for acoustic instruments, or voice with live electronics andvideo projections and other forms of mixed media.  
After a classical education on piano, trumpet and singing, he first studied music informatics with a focus on composition. Since 2010 he has been increasingly active in the field of radical improvisation.

4. Luke Fowler – Plants extract 1

5. Lauren Redhead and Alistair Zaldua – Feminist Pirate Broadcasts 

The beginning of a projected album of work for this duet of spoken word and improvised e-violin, these two pieces bring together experimentally composed texts using Oulipo-derived techniques, live violin performance and sampled violin and environmental sounds. The texts could be considered critical rewritings, or translations, of existing work that address historical, political, aesthetic, and gender-based themes, and their relation to art and listening. Rather than just a backdrop, the violin improvisation ‘plays into’ the spaces offered by the spoken word, presenting its own spaces, or responding to the spoken text.

Composers and improvisers Lauren Redhead and Alistair Zaldua frequently work together on collaborative projects and in their duet for organ and live electronics. Alistair performs with the acoustic and 5-string electric violins, along with live electronics, and is also a conductor, and a researcher with the Royal Music Association’s Music and/as Process study group.Lauren is an organist and a musicologist who writes on the aesthetics of recent music, and a Senior Lecturer at Goldsmiths, University of London. This combination of spoken word and improvised e-violin is the beginning of a new project involving text and improvisation.

6. Anna Stereopoulou – Es Trophoniou memanteutai 

A podcast that is a Dream Bilingual Narrative of educational and ecological character,based on the “Encoimesis” (Incubation) practices that took place in Asclepeions(the Ancient Greek world). It consists of the Soundwalk's Field Recording[Hercyna Springs (Krya) – Oracle of Trophonius – Livadia City-center], offering a psycho-acoustic experience, similar to the one of each "Sleeper"-patient's. The title is inspired by the same ancientproverb (ancient Greek: «Ες Τροφωνίου μεμάντευται» / English: “He/She receivedan oracle from the oracle of Trophonius”) referring to the Sullen and Gloomypeople, in general (or in particular, the Visitors of the Asclepeions, in the ancient times).

Anna Stereopoulou specialises in music composition for film and television [“200Years Modern Greek State – 200 Miracles and Steps Forward” anniversary TVFillers series (ERT | 03-12/2021), “A Place Called Home”: Best Original Score Award (CYIFF 2014), “PLANO”: Best Music Video Award (NIFF 2019, Kolkata,India), “SYN”: 'Classical:NEXT Innovation Award 2020 Nomination' and 'Under the Aegis of GNTO – 2019']. She has presented her art worldwide, in cultural centres and archaeological sites.She has also worked as an advisory programmer in music and film festivals, as part of her activity in culture, education, journalism and tourism, and within her interdisciplinary research.

8. William Brooks – AudiblePhotographs (0:59) 

35mm photograph encoded in radiowave. Using Slow Scan Television (SSTV), an image is translated into radio transmission, and can bedecoded back into its photographic form. Used as a method to disseminatephotographic information during early space exploration,each recording can bedecoded through audible reception using an SSTV app on any mobilephone/computer (Robot36 encoding). Each attempt to decode the photo from theaudio results in a slightly different image due to minute variations in audible reception; it is often the case that ambient noise influences what is decoded.The photographic images are from the Preseli Hills, Pembrokeshire, Wales. 

My name is William Brooks, I am third year BA Fine Photography (w/CreativeComputing) student at University of the Arts London: Camberwell. My practice has primarily concerned the use of radio communication as an artistic medium; often attempting to visually articulate the telematic connections that we rely upon and use in our day to day lives.
