	1	2	3	4	5 SPDM: Radiophrenia Special SPDM: Radiophrenia Special 5 September 2026 12:00 am - 1:00 am SPDM is a collaborative hard drive excavation, a free-associative remix of our recent media consumption. A high velocity conversation through film, music, field recording, social media detritus - anything that can be stored as an audio file. Artist bio: SPDM is an ongoing collaboration between domingo castillo flores and Jeremy Segal. Using free-associative sound collage as their primary method, SPDM explores sound, meaning, and circulation through radio, performance, and music production. SPDM improvises live remixes of their recent media consumption once a month on 90mil Radio. In December 2025 they presented The Merve Tapes on Cashmere Radio, a six-hour broadcast and accompanying zine exploring a collection of cassettes housed at Diffrakt Centre for Theoretical Periphery. SPDM has recently performed (under various monikers) at Bar Neun, Roter Salon, and 90mil. They are currently working on a studio album. Michael Edwards - lusted fleeting Michael Edwards - lusted fleeting 5 September 2026 1:00 am - 2:00 am lusted fleeting is a 68-minute fixed-media immersive-audio piece in five parts (plus coda) with optional live on-stage speaker and lighting effects. Aesthetic promiscuity interrupted by digital discontinuities, degradations, spectral and acoustic shifts, pauses, nostalgic machine noises, and jump-cuts create a meta-narrative that breaks the suspension of disbelief and the basking in immersive sound. Many of lusted fleeting's rhythmically-focused sections were generated by algorithms extrapolated from one-dimensional cellular automata, in particular the so-called Wolfram Codes. Text is used on several levels, both in the foreground with clearly-audible spoken words and in the background as barely-audible, highly-processed hints of human presence. Artist bio: I'm a composer, improvisor, software developer, and since 2017 Professor of Electronic Composition at ICEM, Folkwang University of the Arts, Essen, Germany. I'm the programmer of the slippery chicken algorithmic composition package. My compositional interests lie mainly in the development of structures for hybrid electro-instrumental pieces through the integration of algorithmically produced scored materials with similarly generated computer-processed sound. https://michael-edwards.org blog: https://michael-edwards.org/wp Lorie Ballage, Mathias Loose - Bus 59 Lorie Ballage, Mathias Loose - Bus 59 5 September 2026 2:00 am - 2:30 am BUS 59 is the first outcome of Take to the Road, a collaboration between artist Lorie Ballage and composer Mathias Loose. The 18-minute audio piece unfolds as a guided meditation set within a rainy urban landscape, drawing listeners into a sensory and emotional journey. Through layered narration, concrete sounds, ambient textures, and carefully composed musical cues, the work evokes states of frustration, impatience, disorientation, and quiet release. Its sonic choreography amplifies the physicality of rain, movement, and urban noise, transforming everyday disruptions into moments of heightened awareness. Centered on themes of surrender and acceptance, BUS 59 invites listeners to reflect on the rhythms that govern contemporary life. By embracing unexpected turns and relinquishing control, the piece creates a space for contemplation—where chaos and harmony coexist—and encourages a deeper understanding of the self within the wider emotional and societal landscape. Artist bio: Lorie Ballage (FR/NO) is a Bergen-based visual artist whose practice explores watery utopias, emotional tension, and the poetics of surrender. Working across ceramic installation, sound, and text, she creates immersive environments that invite introspection. She holds an MFA from the Art Academy in Bergen and exhibits widely across Europe. Mathias Loose (DK) is a Copenhagen-based composer and sound artist blending electronic and analogue textures into emotionally rich sonic worlds. His work spans film, performance, and spatial sound installations. He holds a Master of Music in Film Composition from the Danish National Academy of Music and presents work internationally.

The work explores the notions of surplus, discarding and the symbolic reuse of speech, converting vocal leftovers into new forms of listening and meaning. In a way, the result resembles a sound “frottage,” whose figures derive from the electronic manipulation of the harmonics present in my voice. The semantic aspect is relegated to a subliminal instance. In general, the piece is a kind of lo-fi ambient music, generated from fragments of a pre-recorded speech, with the Portuguese words rendered almost imperceptible. Despite the prevailing discreet and hypnotic atmosphere, the work contains a few contrasting and dramatic passages – brief noisy commutations. One might suspects a bored demiurge, fond of deviations. Artist bio: Roberto D'Ugo Junior is a brazilian artist-researcher dedicated to radio art. His work explores interfaces between magic, technique and art. Based on a poetic-documentary listening to everyday life, he develops an aesthetic investigation that dialogues with surrealism and musical minimalism. One of the main features of his work is the ritualistic repetition of speech residues and fragments of field recordings. He holds a PhD in Visual Arts from the Institute of Arts at São Paulo State University. He was production coordinator at Rádio Cultura FM in São Paulo. He teaches radio and sound media at the Faculdade Cásper Líbero. https://www.instagram.com/d_ugo_minimal_radio/ https://soundcloud.com/user-48062083-271779683 Rundfunkorchestra - Sonic traces in a garden of longing Rundfunkorchestra - Sonic traces in a garden of longing 5 September 2026 3:00 am - 4:00 am Sonic traces in a garden of longing is a one-hour, live-to-tape radio performance by Rundfunkorchestra, produced for a dedicated broadcast slot and recorded remotely as an ensemble. A score shapes the hour with a clear temporal architecture while deliberately leaving space for improvisation and individual decisions. Migration is approached not as a story but as a shifting network of sonic relations in three movements—Language/Home, Borders/Deterritorialisation, Movement—punctuated by solo passages. The material draws from the orchestra’s own recordings and archives: voice and multilingual traces, fractured music, animal worlds, the human world, nature. Refusing a single “red thread,” the work treats transmission itself as a compositional device: through the curtain of the radio wave, background becomes foreground, inviting attention to focus, drift, return, and drift again. In this way, migration hints toward otherness—that which is around us, which we always want to grasp, yet can never fully hold. Artist bio: Rundfunkorchestra is a loose collective of sound artists based around Weimar, Dresden, Leipzig and Linz, working “radio-first” across broadcast, installation, and live performance. Created by students of the "Experimental Radio" professorship at Bauhaus University Weimar, they not only focus on audio performances themselves. For example, they developed radiophonic instruments and formats—such as the portable FM performance system Funkstern Plus—and have presented works with stations and festivals including Radio CORAX, Radio Helsinki, and Radio Elsewhere and also Radiophrenia.

The musical ‘scenes’ (some almost reportage, others more fanciful) are artificially constructed but all have their roots in the real world. We move erratically between locations in Europe, Iceland, Australia, North America, North Africa and Asia, with the means of travel (trains, cars, planes, ships) lurking almost throughout. But the logic of the narrative (if there is one) does not lie in geographical connections or distances but in the ‘sonic’ journey: the relationships and contrasts – spectral, rhythmic and spatial – that I had enormous pleasure in discovering within my recorded material. My habit of always carrying sound recording equipment started in the early 1990s when I became interested in capturing everyday sonic events that somehow indicated their geographical location. One day, when I was recording a journey on the London Underground, a lost overseas visitor asked me directions – that incident gave me the idea for a piece based on the broad theme of travel, and the sense of disorientation, even alienation, it can engender. I have amassed quite a sound library over the past 25 years, but only started to investigate these materials methodically in 2014, with three related works: Hidden Vistas (a 20-channel gallery piece, premiered at the Ikon Gallery, Birmingham); Espaces cachés (a 30-channel concert work, commissioned by the Maison des arts sonores, Montpellier and premiered at the Klang! Electroacoustique Festival in Montpellier); and Secret Horizons (a 14-channel installation, composed for the RBSA Gallery, Birmingham as part of the Birmingham Sculpture Trail). My approach in these works was to present the material, but in a way that, given the geographical disparity of some of the concurrently sounding materials, would be impossible in ‘real life’ – we cannot, physically, be in two places at once, but it is entirely possible in the aural domain, especially if recognition and personal memory are evoked and involved. Large loudspeaker arrays, often in different rooms or parts of a space, aided the illusion I was trying to create. I felt, however, that I wanted to subject this material to a more ‘in-depth’ acousmatic investigation, so was delighted when Pierre Alexandre Tremblay, one of my former PhD students at Birmingham and now Professor of Music at Huddersfield, asked me to compose 60-minute multi-channel work when I retired – it was the perfect opportunity. A Leverhulme Emeritus Fellowship enabled me to make field recording trips to Australia and Iceland, and supported the development of multi-channel signal processing software; the National Lottery, via an Arts Council England Grants for the Arts award, supported the period of composition. Going / Places is not so much a piece as an ongoing project – what you will hear today is the story so far. I intend to carry on travelling, recording new materials that will undoubtedly demand and deserve to participate in future versions. Going / Places – a ‘rough guide’ I thought it might be useful to offer some ‘signposts’ (this is a project about travel, after all!) – not to tell you what you should be hearing, but simply to enhance and complement your listening experience (and to give you something else to do if you get bored!). The musical moments or ‘scenes’ that you will hear (some clearly delineated, others overlapping) are all completely artificially constructed; some border on reportage or documentary, others are more fanciful – but they all have their origins in specific locations. Telling you what and where these locations might be does not, I hope, detract from the aural experience. We begin and end in Italy, my second home. Between these scenes – one implying imminent motion, the other more restful and tranquil – we flit erratically and unpredictably between other locations in Europe, Iceland, Australasia, North America, North Africa and parts of Asia, and the means of travel (trains, cars, planes, ships, etc) are lurking almost throughout. But the logic of the narrative (if there is one) does not lie in the geographical connections or distances but in the sonic journey: the relationships and contrasts – spectral, rhythmic and spatial – that I had enormous pleasure in discovering within this huge range of material. I hope you enjoy the ride. I owe huge thanks to a large number of people and organisations for their contributions to this work and their assistance in its creation: Thanks to: The National Lottery/Arts Council England, The Leverhulme Foundation, Pierre Alexandre Tremblay and the Huddersfield Contemporary Music Festival, Joe Klingler, Elainie Lillios and Michael Thompson, Alex Harker and his students, James Carpenter, Chris Tarren, Lisa Whistlecroft and Steve Benner, David Hirst – and my wife, Alison Warne. Artist bio: Jonty Harrison (1952) studied at the University of York, before working at the National Theatre and City University, London. In 1980 he joined the University of Birmingham, where he directed the Electroacoustic Music Studios and BEAST. He retired in 2014 and is now Emeritus Professor of Composition and Electroacoustic Music. Gastprofessur, TU, Berlin (2010); Leverhulme Emeritus Fellow (2014-15).

He has received many commissions and prizes internationally, and his work appears on four solo albums (empreintes DIGITALes, Montreal) and several compilations. https://electrocd.com/en/artiste/harrison_jo/Jonty_Harrison Anne Lepère - Nuages (Clouds) Anne Lepère - Nuages (Clouds) 5 September 2026 5:00 am - 6:00 am Clouds is a sound fiction unfolding between sky and earth. Imaginary beings and animals guide our steps through a sky in motion. Each layer has its own distinct character: Cumulus, Stratus, and Cirrus invite us to navigate their unique densities, colors, and musicalities. The air—sometimes warm, sometimes cold—lifts us to shifting heights, revealing cloud-poems, clusters of droplets with floating phrasing. Moods are like a changeable sky. No one lives under a perfectly uniform sky, nor one that is entirely grey or blue; it reminds us of impermanence. And you—what color is your sky today? Artist bio: Anne Lepère is a sound artist, composer, and radio producer whose work explores the poetry of everyday life between urban and rural spaces. Trained in Brussels hubs such as ACSR and at Royaumont, she has been creating radiophonic pieces, music, and sound design for theatre, dance, performance, and film since 2013. A recipient of several awards, she authored Autopoïèse (2019) and Area (2022), innovative works blending documentary, poetry, and explorations of time. In 2025, she completes Nuages, a new long-form radiophonic piece produced by Babelfish, ACSR and Semi-Silent, combining the sonic score of clouds with collective writing.

Julio César Palacio - What about China? 5 September 2026 6:00 am - 7:00 am This piece is made with field recordings in one of the most incredible places I have ever visited and listen to. The province of Guizhou in southern China, in its beautiful rural villages, where various ancient dialects are spoken, such as KAM, which can be heard in the recordings. These are places that change your life because they remind you of the love for the land and the harmony between humans and nature. In the recordings, you can hear the toads and frogs in the rice fields, the cicadas, all singing at tremendous volume in the vastness of those mountain valleys, the weavers at their beautiful traditional looms, villagers singing together, parties, laughter... For me, this is perhaps the most unique place I have ever been listening to and field recording. Artist bio: Julio César Palacio is an Venezuelan-born, Barcelona-based artist, researcher, educator, and composer. His sonic practice focuses on the study of acoustic phenomena, listening as a community practice, the relationship of sound in identity and collective memory, oral history, noise pollution and the impact of human beings on nature, the study of bio-acoustics and the analysis of sound DATA as a material for awareness and conservation of the environment and his soundscape, understood in the context of today's climate crisis and instability.

A Sound Essay. 5 September 2026 7:00 am - 7:30 am How to approach a new place? And what to take home from it? The rural area of Tescani in Romanian Moldavia is characterized by reverberating sounds waving between hills, farming, and plenty of dogs. Up the hill on the edge of the village lies a small museum in honor of the Romanian composer George Enescu. A mansion with its own little forest. But the grandeur of the past shows cracks. Humidity sneaks up the walls. Red, aristocratic patterned carpet hosts historic notes, furnitures, and instruments. Mice ate the hammer felt of the piano – the piano on which Enescu finished his opera Oedipe. Today it is untouchable. Packs of visitors come in coaches, have a quick look, bath in some mellow notes, and climb their vehicle again to take off. What is conserved along the way? The piece follows, questions, deconstructs, and reconstructs the process of conservation. Artist bio: La Pesch lives in Leipzig and works as sound and voice artist, author, director, and curator – mainly in the fields of radio, composition, installation, performance, and the walking arts. Her works show a strong sense for the specific characteristics of phenomena, people, and places. They oscillate between narrative and purely sound-based with strong fascination for the thin borderline between fiction and reality. Often she uses spoken word that transcends sentences and syntax and reaches a pure atmosphere or emotional quality. She sets in scene encounters creating contact points creating contact points in dialogue.

The piece traces a genealogy of the void, linking the Argentine State's 1878 foundational genocide ("Conquest of the Desert") with contemporary logics of mineral extractivism. The project is rooted in media archaeology: it employs "tuning stones" (quartz and lithium) based on galena radio principles to capture the radio frequency spectrum without external power sources. This technique enables a physical interaction with territorial vibration and the acoustics of the air. The work is structured as a live non-fiction sound piece, processing and remixing records from the National General Archive alongside field recordings and choral testimonies. De/Cierto functions as a sonic archaeology that intervenes in the frequencies of historically silenced territories, exploring the radio medium as a site of tension between the documentary archive and geological materiality. Artist bios: Maru Waldhüter is a sociologist and sound producer focused on documentary narratives and social research. She has produced non-fiction series for the Rosa Luxemburg Foundation and CELS, and was a producer at FM La Tribu for eight years. Her work explores the intersection of regional politics and sound memory. MINGUS / IDOSÔIDOS is a sound artist and researcher specializing in field recordings and media archaeology. He co-directs REMEZCLATUCIUDAD and has documented oralities across Ibero-America for platforms like Radio 3 (Spain) and Radio Tsonami (Chile). His practice investigates the auditory perception of territories and the materiality of archives.

(10:24) 3 La Pesch - Mouth without Words (5:27) 4 Faruk Mehić - ePrelude Op. 18 No. 3 (3:18) 5 Medio Mutante - Williams Mix 23A (4:16) 1) Abigail Ranic - Vocal Hymn Inspired by a single chord, this track, "Vocal Hymn" is comprised of nearly 20 individual vocal tracks all sung and arranged by A Ranic. Vocal Hymn explores the discomfort of dissonance by using long meandering vocal melodies which twist and intertwine with each other, falling in and out of harmony. A Ranic is a queer artist working out of Detroit, Michigan. Their work explores themes of twinship, gender, and the strangeness of having a body. Ranic's work expands across many mediums, including but not limited to: performance art, drag, clowning, sound and video art, printmaking, fiber arts, and installation. https://www.instagram.com/nibacari/ 2) Female Laptop Orchestra (FLO) - From this world to... This is a proposal for a fixed composition, scheduled to be mixed and sent to Radiophrenia on March 7th, 2026. This piece will revolve around one question: "We are sending a message to space. It is likely that we will be exctinct by the time aliens hear it. What do you want to say?" Each of us will answer in our mother tongues, and these spoken words will be processed through an ethical AI tool to create our base track. Geographically distributed FLO performers will each use the opensource Hi Audio platform to record asynchronously additionnal musical tracks on top of the previous composition. This will allow us to explore ideas such as the state of our world, humanity's posture within our planet and the universe, our hopes for the future, our prides, our disappointments, our cultures and our values. The Female Laptop Orchestra, founded in 2014 by Nela Brown, is an international ensemble of professional musicians, visual artists, and researchers working at the intersection of music, technology, and distributed audiovisual performance. By bridging time zones, continents, political boundaries and languages, FLO explores telematic intercultural collaboration and raises awareness of the underrepresentation of women in the sound and music computing fields. Performers for this piece are: Nela Brown (HR), Léa Ikkache (FR), Alayna Hughes (US), Maria Mannone (IT), Magdalena Chudy (PL), Ariane Stolfi (BR), Sonia Wilkie (AU), Alayna Hughes (US), Silvia Binda Heiserova (SK), Maria Aguado (SP), Sonia Wilkie (AU). https://femalelaptoporchestra.wordpress.com/performances/ 3) La Pesch - Mouth without Words What are we listening to? A forest at night? A melting glacier? A choir of wordless mouths and bodies trying to express their relationship to the world and with one another. This is what remains when the world leaves us speechless with a strong desire to express. La Pesch, lives in Leipzig and works as sound and voice artist, author, director, and curator – mainly in the fields of radio, composition, installation, performance, and the walking arts. Her works show a strong sense for the specific characteristics of phenomena, people, and places. They oscillate between narrative and purely sound-based with strong fascination for the thin borderline between fiction and reality.

The piece was premiered at the Electronic Music Concert as part of the anniversary programme of the Student Cultural Centre, University of Banja Luka, and was subsequently featured in the Metapsychosis journal in the article Spectral Portraits in Transit by Michael Eisenberg. Faruk Mehić is a composer from Bosnia and Herzegovina. He completed his bachelor’s studies in composition under the mentorship of professor Tatjana Milošević Mijanović, DMA, at the Academy of Arts of the University of Banja Luka, where he is currently pursuing his master’s studies in composition. His works have been performed across Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, Serbia, Albania, Slovenia, Croatia, Italy, Denmark, and The United States of America. https://farukmehic.com/ 5) Medio Mutante - Williams Mix 23A In 2023 Medio Mutante became the first artist to realize a new version of John Cage's "Williams Mix" for magnetic tape using the original 1952 score. The score is 192 pages long, covers 8 channels of sound, more than 600 sound samples and required over 10,000 tape splices. The finished piece is available as a boxed set of 8 records of the individual channels, or digitally in mixed and individual channel versions. A detailed documentary video of the process is available on Medio Mutante's YouTube channel: youtu.be/h1G8EljAfPA https://mediomutante.bandcamp.com/album/john-cage-williams-mix-23a A band. http://www.mediomutante.com https://www.instagram.com/mediomutante.mp3 Radiophrenia Shorts 1B Radiophrenia Shorts 1B 5 September 2026 8:30 am - 9:00 am 1 Yeudiel Infante Esquivel - GLOSOLAL-IA FM (11:00) 2 Edward Ruchalski - Radio Voices 3 (I'm Here and There) (7:24) 3 Susan Brewster - The Nature of Persistence and the Other Way Round (7:31) 4 Owen Duff - Selections from The Meaning of Alexa (Ambient) 3 - Have you ever been to the ocean (3:09) 1) Yeudiel Infante Esquivel - GLOSOLAL-IA FM GLOSOLAL-IA FM presents voices that no longer belong to any real language; they emerge from the failure of artificial intelligences attempting to restore messages beyond their capacity for interpretation. Conceived for broadcast, the work is a binaural radio art piece in the format of a radio magazine, premiered on Radio UNAM 96.1 FM (Mexico City) on 14 February 2026. It incorporates sound documentary segments exploring impossible insects, fictional advertisements for unimaginable products, non-conventional musical passages, and capsules that construct sonic coherence without semantic meaning. It is, perhaps, a radio signal from an alternative reality; yet at the same time it is a metaphor for our own—of media that exclude and of silenced voices. This language is illegible to us even though it once articulated the reality we inhabit, much like marginalized voices the system does not know how to hear. What do the languages silenced by technology sound like? Yeudiel Infante is a Mexican composer and sound artist. His work has been presented at major venues and festivals in Mexico, United States, and Europe—including the Palacio de Bellas Artes, Festival Internacional Cervantino, the Kennedy Center, and the Théâtre Public de Montreuil—and has received recognition from institutions such as the Centro Mexicano para la Música y las Artes Sonoras and the Bienal Internacional de Radio. In 2024, he served as Coordinator of the 46 Foro Internacional de Música Nueva organized by the Instituto Nacional de Bellas Artes y Literatura. https://www.instagram.com/yeudielinfante https://x.com/yeudielinfante 2) Edward Ruchalski - Radio Voices 3 (I'm Here and There) Radio Voices (3) was created specifically for Radiophrenia’s open call. The source material was recorded from a short-wave receiver via the Wide-band WebSDR site, University of Twente. The various beeps, noises and tones, and spoken words were processed by EQ, filters, and pitch shifting. Additional, sound sources include bells and percussion. In my Radio Voices project, I hope to present an imaginary world of our world in a future that no longer includes human beings. However odd this may seem, in this future, human-made sounds from the past are still present, dominant and floating in the atmosphere. This piece made from radio transmitted sounds is intended for radio broadcast. Edward Ruchalski is a composer, sound artist and field recordist. His compositions have been performed at the Kennedy Center, Lincoln Center, Mass MoCA, Symphony Space on Broadway and elsewhere. In 2020, Ruchalski’s acousmatic work, “Refined Localities”, was selected for inclusion in the exhibition, Audiosphere, at the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía in Madrid, Spain. Ruchalski has been an artist in residence at Wave Farm in Acra, N.Y. During the residency he created a concept for a radio show with co-host Stephen Bradley called Bells, Bugs, Whispers & Plinks (WGXC 90.7 FM). edwardruchalski.com edwardruchalski.bandcamp.com 3) Susan Brewster - The Nature of Persistence and the Other Way Round Thinking about recent discoveries of fossilised human footprints, the idea of aeonic imprints, something lasting indefinitely, from fossils to DNA, sparked many images in creating this piece. Whether a footprint in the sand, or an unconscious memory, it is fascinating that an event might suddenly, or gradually, and unexpectedly reveal clearly what has been hidden for a long, long time. An ambisonic composition, “ The Nature of Persistence and the Other Way Round” aspires to place the listener within an immersive sound environment that is familiar but alien at the same time. Textures are created by digital manipulation of a variety of samples from acoustic instruments including flute, drums, cello and mouth harp. As a scalable format, the piece could be configured and decoded to fit different surround speaker systems whereby the virtual sound sphere is adapted accordingly. Susan is from the USA living in London, UK. Her compositions encompass a spectrum of musical styles, traditions and concepts. Her electroacoustic work has been awarded and premiered at international festivals. As an invited guest composer at the London Gamelan Composers Forum, ‘Ears to Earth’ for Gamelan and electronics, was premiered at the School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS), London. Compositions are experimental and abstract, suggesting stories or conundrums. Scores range from conventional notation to graphic designs prompting improvisation. Currently she focusses on creating compositions for ambisonic, or immersive environments, exploring themes of the human relationship to technology. https://www.linkedin.com/in/susanbrewster https://www.instagram.com/sus_an_brewster/ 4) Owen Duff - Selections from The Meaning of Alexa (Ambient) 3 - Have you ever been to the ocean These are selections from a long-form work I have just completed, derived from an improvised piano and vocal ‘duet’ with an Amazon smart speaker which I recorded and then processed with extreme time stretching, editing and sound design. I also included audio of what the smart speaker recorded during the duet from Amazon’s servers. With this piece I wanted to evoke in sound the space between human expression, represented by my freely improvised playing and sung questions, and AI’s understanding of it. I also wanted to explore the blurring lines between humans and the technology we have invented, and to play with the dichotomy between our ideas of freedom and a digital capitalism which has promised to deliver that freedom, but has arguably removed our liberty to reject capitalism. Owen Duff works across multiple artistic fields, from his work as a singer-songwriter with many albums and videos released over 20 years, to his work making music for screen such as the Queerty-nominated series Kissing Walls. As a sonic artist Owen was Highly Commended in the 'Composed with Sound' category at Sound of the Year Awards in 2023, created the sound art/poetry collaboration 'Ghost Dance' with poet Emily Berry, which was a featured premiere on BBC's Late Junction in 2024, and had work selected for an In The Dark listening event the same year. http://www.owenduff.co.uk http://www.instagram.com/owenduffmusic owenduff.bandcamp.com Antje Vowinckel - Opdoppling: recycling ritual in four parts Antje Vowinckel - Opdoppling: recycling ritual in four parts 5 September 2026 9:00 am - 9:45 am Opdoppling recycling ritual in four parts Production: AV, 2023 I Listening/Collecting II Processing III Recycling IV Upgrade Percussionists in part IV: Burkhard Beins, Emilio Gordoa, Els Vandeweyer, Antje Vowinckel; soprano saxophone Antje Vowinckel Premier: 16. 12.2023, SWR 2 Pop shreds - without beginning, without ending - boom past from cars and Bluetooth boxes, hiss from mobile phone headphones, colonize public space. Global songs, composed somewhere, sometime, practiced, sung, mixed, mastered. Now dismembered, compressed and flattened; thrown in front of our ears. – Do they really blow by? Evaporate? Or do they drift again, somewhere in us, like plastic in the sea? Treatment I For the first part, I listened to music leftovers flying around, collected them and embedded them in a music I composed myself. These remnants are either already "naturally" filtered during the recording (because only the trebles penetrate from a headphone to the outside or only the bass from a passing car), or I filtered afterwards. The Doppler effect is also natural in many cases, because I have moved quickly past the sound source or the sound source has moved past me. (In summer on Tempelhofer Feld, you can easily find twenty private picnics, each with its own boom boxes, next to each other. I kept walking past it.) In some cases, I have increased the Doppler effect afterwards. Due to the filtering and the Doppler effect, most of the snippets are no longer recognizable. There are a few exceptions that can possibly still be assigned. But they are so short that it doesn't matter under copyright law. Location: Berlin Neukölln and Tempelhofer Feld Instrumental sounds: recorded various acoustic instruments themselves and digitally processed: vibraphone, harmonium, soprano saxophone. In addition, individual accordion tones, recorded by Anna-Katharina Schau; they only occur in edited form. Embedded in this layering are the pop music remnants. II The pop remnants end up in the sounds of the E-Werk Luckenwalde. Recording: August 2022. (https://www.kunststrom.com/jetzt-wechseln.html) This E-Werk sounds like a sound installation in itself. I changed these sounds only a little and put the pop remnants in and processed them further. III I transcribed the looped rhythms of the recorded pop remnants (see p. 4/5), replayed them with stones and sticks on wood, stone, metal barriers and branches in nature. They mix with free rhythms and instrumental sounds from the first part. IV For the fourth part, I went to a remote Lost Place with three performers. There we played the looped rhythms in different rooms with a boom box and then played them on the surfaces of the rooms with percussion mallets. Water pipes protruding from the walls, for example, sound like an untuned vibraphone, plus metal grilles, shards, objects lying around in rooms of different sizes and reverberations. The rhythms are first strictly imitated, then transition into improvisation. On another day I recorded soprano saxophone sounds myself in the Lost Place. At first, long-drawn notes with a slight downward movement like a very slow Doppler effect. Then several notes in quick succession, the frequencies of which all reverberate for a long time in the large room. In the arrangement, the short initial notes were cut off, so that only the polyphonic reverberation can be heard. The harmonizer effect that is created in this way is natural. Place: Lost Place in the north of Brandenburg. Biography: Antje Vowinckel is a Berlin based composer, radio artist and musician. Her works can be heard on radio stations such as Deutschlandfunk, SWR, WDR, HR, BR; at festivals such as Donaueschinger Musiktage, Ruhtrienale, Eclat-Festival Stuttgart or at concert venues such as ZKM Karlsruhe, Issue-Project Room New York, Sophiensäle Berlin. For her compositions with sound bites she developed the methodes of Automatic Speaking and Dialect-Karaoke. Furthermore, she creates installations and performances in public spaces, which are aimed at a random and wider audience. The main focus of her work is in Germany, but her pieces are also presented internationally, e.g. her piece Call me Yesterday was broadcast and presented in 18 countries.

Of the sword’s longing to be the word. I have died, I have died, and blood gushed in a broad torrent over armour. I have awoken, changed, again casting my warrior’s gaze over you." Velimir Khelbnikov, 1918 Produced Musiques et Recherches, October 2025 Source of sound material: Field recording made in the Ukrainian trenches of Donbass in 2014, during the start of the Russian offensive. Poem – ‘Wind is song’ by Russian poet Velimir Khelbnikov – 1918 Voice – Natalia Pschenitschnikova In 2014, I had access to a very unsettling recording. It was made by a friend in the trenches of the Ukrainian army in the midst of the war by the Russian army in Donbass. Unfortunately, 15 years later, this war is still ongoing. This audio document, captured the clatter of voices and weapons of war operated by men we call soldiers. It touched me indirectly, without penetrating me, but rebounded off like a stone skimming across water. In the safe space of the studio, using these traces of violent reality, I wanted to construct similar sonic textures in time, for abruptly sweep them away with the pacifist poem “Wind is song” by the Russian poet Velimir Khlebnikov, in which a dead soldier wakes up and gazes at us. It was written in 1918, on the eve of the turmoil and bloodshed that followed the revolution. Khlebnikov dreamed ‘of the sword’s longing to be the word’. Machine Listening - Voyce Walkr Machine Listening - Voyce Walkr 5 September 2026 10:00 am - 10:30 am Voyce Walkr by Machine Listening is a reimagining of Russel Hoban’s post-apocalyptic 1980 novel Riddley Walker, updated, reworked, and distilled in response to our technological present. The work recasts Hoban’s nuclear devastation as a collapse brought on by carbon capitalism and techno-solutionism. The environment is ravaged, language has warped and degraded, and computing and other advanced technologies have vanished. Society is now organised around a myth about the causes of the collapse – The User Story – broadcast daily over a rudimentary radio network made from salvaged parts. This is the ‘voyce walking’ of the work’s title. The piece evokes radio’s various golden age(s) at the same time as the story imagines radio as a crude post-apocalyptic medium, far in the future. Time has been deliberately scrambled. Cloned children tell of coming ‘infomayshun barms’ on vintage radios. Old stories of dystopian futures tuned in to the anxieties of the present. Artist bio: Machine Listening is a platform for collaborative research and artistic experimentation, founded in 2020 by Sean Dockray, James Parker, and Joel Stern in order to subject automated systems to political and aesthetic scrutiny. The collective works across writing, installation, performance, music, software, curation, pedagogy, and radio. Our work has been presented at major institutions including the Australian Centre for Contemporary Art, Cricoteka Tadeusz Kantor Museum (Kraków), Warsaw Museum of Modern Art, Galerie Nord (Berlin), the National Communication Museum, RMIT Design Hub, and MUMA. And we have performed at Unsound Festival, Soft Centre, and Melbourne Recital Centre, among others. https://machinelistening.exposed/ Suk Jun Kim - Syrian Humming Project Suk Jun Kim - Syrian Humming Project 5 September 2026 10:30 am - 11:00 am Hums are never just about songs. They are always more about stories, memories, feelings of you and me. When we asked displaced Syrian families to share with us their hums of songs and tunes about food and meals, their hums were more than about food. They were for people with whom they shared meals. These are hums for homesickness, love, working in the field, trading, raising chicken, preparing meals, having coffee, religious devotion, love for the nation and their people, nostalgia and commemoration, and their particular challenges during the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic. These are beautiful and heart-warming hums, and they deserve our listening. As a part of GCRF-funded project called Syrian Food Futures, Syrian Humming Project is a sound art project that aims to tap into the personal and collective memories on food and daily life of displaced Syrian people through humming. Syrian Humming Project continues to evolve since its pilot project which ran between 2019-2020. For the pilot project, we asked Syrian families displaced in various countries, including Turkey, Germany, France, and Scotland to send their hums and songs online. You can listen to snippets of these hums from Syrian Humming. Following these hums, Suk-Jun Kim created ten short humming pieces based on some of them. These short humming pieces also uses images and quotes from From the Field, another sister project on Food Security in Syria and the Impact of COVID-19 on displaced Syrian communities.

Antje Vowinckel - Sisyphon Antje Vowinckel - Sisyphon 5 September 2026 12:00 pm - 12:30 pm Composition with international call centre voices. Being stuck on hold, waiting to eventually speak with a representative, is an experience everyone knows—yet no one shares. You press your ear against the receiver and keep your mouth shut so as not to miss that crucial moment. We all hear and say the exact same things—much like at a concert, yet in total isolation. It’s time, to give it a public space. Antje Vowinckel has listened to many recorded messages before she was finally connected. The research for the project was kindly supported by Musikfonds, Germany. A Radiophrenia commission produced with the support of Creative Scotland.

Produced by the Khamoosh collective and participatory research project, this episode features artists of diverse communities who reflect on their ways of living and on their practice. Tehran is at the crossroads for the stories told in this episode – whether as a place to return to or escape from. Members of Khamoosh reflect on the question: Who is an artist? They do so through letters, conversations, interviews, and by holding space for one another. Sonic elements emerge from a collective effort, drawing from the group’s rich sonic archive. Artist bio: Khamoosh is a participatory artistic research project that mediates conservation and restoration by exploring the sonic heritage of Iran through recorded sounds of everyday life; sounds less heard or even silenced. Their methodology is guided by an ongoing process of learning by doing, community-based participation, collective artistic practice, and research as a network. They come together in the shared intimacy of sound through the tools of technology and time. Hearing the relationship between sound and language is an ongoing process formed by both well-known and unknown contributors as well as by non-humans, broadening the listening sphere of their extended collective.

A pioneer of pop art, Paolozzi’s practice drew inspiration from artists that utilise similar collage and cut-up techniques such as Charles Ives and William S. Burroughs. As such, these relationships are explored within this work through John Cage’s concept of the coexistence of dissimilars, where the notion of harmoniously blended elements is eschewed in favour of collage-like juxtapositions ‘that fuse in the ear of the listener’. Like Paolozzi’s collages, this work incorporates ‘found objects’ in this case John Taverner’s In Nomine and the writings of Gertrude Stein that are reimagined, juxtaposed and intertwined with composed and indeterminate materials alongside soundscape recordings to form an equivocal sound world. Commissioned and performed by Galvanise Ensemble, with funds from Arts Council England, PRS Foundation and RVW Trust. Duncan MacLeod is an award-winning composer, sound artist, and Professor of Sonic Arts at Glasgow School of Art. He works across concert music, sound installations, stage and participatory arts. Informed by folklore, sociopolitical issues and a deep connection to place, his practice explores human relationships with land and ecosystems in the Anthropocene. He creates works that amplify connections between culture, communities and landscape through creative sound practices. His works have been commissioned, performed and broadcast internationally, creating spaces where listeners can encounter and reflect on place, identity, heritage and the environment, and prompting more attentive, responsive ways of listening. https://duncanmacleod.org/ https://soundcloud.com/duncan-macleod https://www.instagram.com/ https://galvanizeensemble.co.uk/ 2) Tianjun Li - Breathe, and you are home The work is a 2-channel stereo sound work shaped by an exchange of breath between the artist and their mother, recorded separately in China and Finland. T Breathing forms the core structure of the piece. Each inhale and exhale turns into wind, carrying hesitation, distance, and care across borders. The work reflects the migrant experience during a complex and layered period, marked by separation, illness, restricted mobility, and ecological loss. Within this intimate pulse are field recordings from the artist’s deforested hometown, ambient sound from a Finnish Immigration Service Point, and birdsong gathered in both countries. Broadcast through FM and online transmission, listening becomes a dispersed but shared act, as air, voice, and signal travel together through space, forming a temporary home in sound. Tianjun Li (CN/FI), also known as Timjune, is a Finland-based visual artist and experimental vocalist working across photography, video, sound, voice, performance, and community-based practices. Li works with synesthesia and an exceptional four-octave vocal range to create imaginative sonic-visual landscapes where more-than-human beings emerge as metaphors for socio-ecological realities. Li holds a master’s degree in Visual Cultures, Curating, and Contemporary Art, with a minor in Sound in New Media, from Aalto University. https://timjune.com/ https://timjune.com/breathe,-and-you-are-home-(2026) https://www.instagram.com/timjunelee 3) Sabrina Berenice Llorens - Quizás estoy dentro de un trueno “Quizás estoy dentro de un trueno” (Perhaps I am inside a thunder) is an expanded reflection on listening and inhabiting different environments and atmospheres. The piece unfolds as an exercise in adaptation and transformation, where modes of listening to diverse sonic ecosystems turn the landscape into a new territory emotional and political. Drawing from field recordings made across different landscapes in Córdoba and Berlin, the sounds erode and collapse through loops and delays, exploring shifts and relationships between human and natural phenomena. A living territory, an identity in transit within a thunder. Berenice Llorens is a composer, guitarist, DJ, improviser, and experimental artist. Her practice and artistic research are rooted in the collection and reinterpretation of sounds from nature, the city, and machines, exploring relationships between humans, technologies, and their environments. She works with loops, delays, field recordings, guitar, and synthesis, developing compositions, performances, and improvisations. Llorens music moves through electroacoustic textures, psychedelic explorations of chamber prog and post-rock ideas, and the pulsating energy of techno. She also collaborates with audiovisual artists, writers, and dancers, and produces radio shows and radio works.

They describe their life in the district - growing up, working, the Roma and the broader communities. They are both at the cusp of growing into adulthood and trying to find their respective places in the world. Both of them speak fondly of local parks, gatherings and the amount of resources available. However, as they speak about the people in their current lives it seems that the idyllic picture of a tight community, as they remember it from the childhood, gives way to a bleaker one - where there's every person for themselves. The work makes use of field recordings captured around Grochów and prepared sounds to illustrate the narrative. Original interviews were conducted by Dom Sztuki in Grochów. Mechatronics engineer who works daily with car audio systems. His passion is everything related to sound. He engages in music production, creating sound installations, instruments, and performing concerts. He combines a technical approach with creativity, and for him, the audiosphere is more than just a carrier of information—it's a way to transcend barriers between people, non-humans, and phenomena. https://linktr.ee/ossitika https://www.instagram.com/big_chart 2) Scarlett Quinn - Red World Red World is an electroacoustic/field recording/ambient composition. Using short wave radio recordings and field recordings, Red World is an attempt to capture granular elements of humanity. It invites the listener to engage with the sound; deconstruct its layers, find nostalgia, something familiar, something distant, listen quietly. Scarlett Quinn is a composer and sound designer whose practice centres on sound art, electroacoustic music, and interactive media systems. Inspired by artists such as Pauline Oliveros, Julius Eastman, and Cornelius Cardew, her compositions interrogate ideas of labour, gendered sound, and embodied listening. She is currently finishing her studies in Music at the University of Manchester, as well as working as a sound designer in game audio. http://www.scarlettquinn.com @badlyscanned 3) Water Feature - Various Birds - inferior merlin A collection of somewhat convincing birdsong and foley created entirely on a small battery-powered drum machine. Many imaginary and fanciful 'species' including the Pond Bather, Golden Nuthatch and Brown Yipper are featured. A long-form sound collage of many species is the central work, and 'close-ups' are also included. In one sense the project is a sincere tribute to bird identification records and tapes one would find in garden centres in the 90s, of which the artists have a large collection. In another sense it is an uncanny objection to a contemporary relationship with nature that romanticises and objectifies it from a safe distance. The sounds have been sampled in records by other artists, used in an extended arrangement for an installation in the Jardin Des Plantes in Paris, presented with narration by a supposed ornithologist, and are played constantly via an internet radio station. Water Feature is a 'collage band' formed of several contributors, creating utopian, absurd and low-fidelity environmental(ist) music. There is a strong reactionary and naive spirit to the project which aims to replace lifeless, boring, synthetic ambient music with an alternative chaotic, colourful and organic musique concrète. Recording and composition revolves around improvisation with cheap gear, tape-splicing and other uncivilised practices and accidents. 3 records (including Various Birds) have been released through the DIY Morsels label/collective. https://variousbirds.net https://morsels.website https://www.instagram.com/morsels.website/ Nika Son & Pose Dia - AREAL Nika Son & Pose Dia - AREAL 5 September 2026 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm In the radio piece Areal, Nika Son and Pose Dia explore the shopping mall as a heterotopia in which consumption, leisure, and illusion intertwine. Beneath the shiny surface of this seemingly self-contained system, acoustic fractures emerge, revealing hidden non-places and transforming the labyrinth of consumption into an unsettling, surreal sonic play. The hybrid premiere of Areal was performed live in Ulm in November 2025 and broadcasted on Radio free FM as part of the programme entartet. The work was commissioned by RR Reihe Radiostücke. Artist bios: Nika Son is an experimental musician, artist, film composer, curator and dj based in Hamburg and Athens. Weaving oneiric musique concrète with analog and digital synthesis, broken rhythms, voices and modulated tape, her work captures the fluid, ever-shifting nature of the night, making the familiar strange and the surreal strangely familiar. The peculiarity of the sound worlds of Pose Dia arise from the figurative approach of Hamburg-based musician, Dj and videoartist Helena Ratka. Sounds, noises, words and voices become as much an instrument as the visual staging. Together with Sophia Kennedy she is the duo Shari Vari moving fluidly between experimental pop and club music.

Conceived during Nandele Maguni’s residency at ZHdK–ICST Spatial Studio in Zurich, the album unfolds as a deep experimental journey through the layered soundscapes of Maputo. Drawing from the city’s restless energy — its engines, voices, and rhythms — Kampfumo transforms the everyday pulse of the chapa 100 into a living metaphor for collective experience. Blending distorted electronics, field recordings, and ancestral echoes, the album navigates the space between ritual and machine, chaos and rhythm, noise and silence. Each track functions like a transport line through Maputo’s invisible geographies, carrying fragments of memory, resistance, and spiritual vibration. Kampfumo is not just an album — it’s an auditory passage where the mechanical becomes mystical, and the city breathes through sound. https://alreadydeadtapes.bandcamp.com/album/kampfumo Artist bio: Mozambican experimental producer, sound artist & live performer Nandele Maguni (also credited as Nandele) is a Mozambican artist whose work bridges analog electronics, field-recorded soundscapes, ambient structures, and sonic ritual. Based in Maputo, with international residencies in Zurich,Rotterdam and South Africa, his creative language foregrounds texture, improvisation, and a deep-rooted Afro futurist sensibility. He was featured in DJ Mag’s “Eight Emerging Artists You Need to Hear – August 2024”, praised for his fearless hybrid of industrial, ambient and ritualistic techno rooted in Southern African sonic memory. https://www.instagram.com/nandelemaguni_ https://www.facebook.com/nandelemaguni https://oroko.live/artists/nandele https://tresorberlin.com/artist/nandele/ Radiophrenia Shorts 64A Radiophrenia Shorts 64A 5 September 2026 4:00 pm - 4:30 pm 1 Nayaka Farrell & Muhammad Welderahmat - Tekstil (5:52) 2 Gianluca Pompilio – Heliocline (5:51) 3 Alfredo Cerrito - S.T.U.P.M.

It is made entirely from everyday sounds recorded in our own surroundings—things we usually hear without paying much attention to. Coming from different regions and backgrounds, we each have different habits of listening and different ways of working with sound. These differences naturally shape how we choose, treat, and arrange the material.Rather than trying to tell a clear story, we use everyday sounds as raw material. Through manipulation and arrangement, familiar noises are taken out of their original context and placed alongside each other, allowing new relationships to form. The work focuses on texture, timbre, and timing/momentum, and avoids traditional musical structures like melody or narrative development. By bringing sounds from different environments into one fixed composition, the piece reflects our shared process of listening together. Muhammad Welderahmat (b. 2002, Palu) is a composer, live coder, songwriter, and improviser working across experimental music, ambient, soundscape, and free improvisation. His practice centers on environmental sound and critical engagement with social and cultural contexts. He has released Phenomenon (2023), Senyap (2025), and Menuju Beranda (2025), and is a member of Paguyuban Algorave Indonesia. Nayaka Farrell Adinata (b. 2005, Denpasar) is a composer that explores sound experimentation and critical reflection of the relationship between familiar and unfamiliar, foreign and personal.

The title is inspired by the concepts of thermocline and photocline, zones in which sudden changes in temperature or light occur within oceanic layers. In a similar way, Heliocline metaphorically explores the stratification of sound in the depths, where frequencies penetrate only so far before silence slowly takes over. In this threshold, sound behaves like light: it refracts, it fades, it transforms Gianluca Pompilio is an Italian composer and sound artist. His work spans a wide range of fields, including electroacoustic composition, live electronics, experimental electronics, and sound installations. His electroacoustic works have been selected for and performed at prestigious festivals, including Ars Electronica, Ma/In, Leam, Somarumor, and Tempo Reale, and have been presented in Austria, Poland, Italy, Brazil, and Mexico. In 2025, he won 2nd prize from the Polish Society for Electroacoustic Music (PSeME) Gianluca holds a BA and MA degree in Electronic Music from the San Pietro a Majella Conservatory of Naples http://www.gianlucapompilio.com 3) Alfredo Cerrito - S.T.U.P.M. The idea of S.T.U.P.M stems from a single generating idea, the one that “Nothing is created, nothing is destroyed but everything is transformed”. Each audio material (entirely sampled by the artist) in this piece has the same characteristics both in the Micro and in the Macro - structure. The materials of common matrix presented in the first part, initially spaced apart, proceed towards the central part with a greater and greater frequency of appearance until they become spasmodic (all this happening through a game of panning and spatialization of sounds). At the same time, there is an additional textural plane that helps to create tension through an ever-increasing addition of frequencies that add up and through the use of contrary motions. A more extended central area gives a new light to the generating material by decanting the latter. Everything seems to stop apparently, the materials are far away in the Alfredo Cerrito is an Italian saxophonist, composer and conductor working across contemporary and electroacoustic music. As co-founder of Duo “8 e 15”, he has performed internationally, including the reopening of the National Theatre of Baghdad. His electroacoustic works have been presented at Audioblast (France), Seoul International Computer Music Festival and InSonora (Barcelona), and broadcast by ResonanceFM (London) and CJSW (Canada). In 2023 he was invited to perform at Tempo Reale’s TRK Glitch Club (Florence) and his piece Remembrance of the Present was published by the US contemporary art journal Superpresent. He also collaborated as arranger and conductor on StraMorgan (Rai) 4) Junchang Zhang - Stormy Plateau Junchang Zhang is a sound artist from China and currently base in New Zealand. This sound work talks about a kind of intimate feeling beyond language.    5) Chris Byrne - Red flag, White flag, Black flag A found recording of a flag flapping in a breeze was duplicated thrice and treated in three ways: - Pitch shifted up - Pitch shifted down - White noise and distortion added The three altered recordings were edited as three tracks in an audio editor. Two were panned left and right respectively, the third remained centred. Crossfades were used to slowly pan from one recording to the other. This creates the effect of the sound moving across the stereo audio space. I have engaged with media and digital practices for some forty years. First as an artist, then as exhibition organiser, curator, producer. Trained as a sculptor, I used computers and video as part of my practice from the outset. During the 1990s and early 2000s I shifted from mostly film and video to digital, interactive and internet artworks. I’ve always found affinity with more marginal practices. Media art is the principle area, but other forms such as performance, mail art, and artists’ publications have been influential. Most of my work as an organiser, curator, producer was in these fields. http://www.crowriver.net https://linktr.ee/crowriver 6) j/jenn/jennifer – Here I lost my father, Anthony Dawes Howd on October 13, 2021. This is the first track from my EP, “ADH” an experimental music/sound art documentation of my last moments with my father before he passed away and my mourning process over the subsequent two years following. Field samples recorded at Catholic Medical Center in Manchester, NH. The image is a piece of digital art I made featuring my father. j/jenn/jennifer (they/them) is a multi-disciplinary artist working at the nexus of experimental art, storytelling, activism, and healing. Identifying as a cultural subversive, they use art to question dominant narratives and invite deeper connection with self, community, and the greater web of life. Their work has been presented and published domestically and internationally on the radio, in books, art galleries, community organizations, sculpture parks, on stage, and in film theatres. https://jenniferhowd.com https://www.instagram.com/jennhowd https://jennhowd.bandcamp.com Radiophrenia Shorts 64B Radiophrenia Shorts 64B 5 September 2026 4:30 pm - 5:00 pm 7 David Upton - Requiem for London Diesel (4:35) 8 Alfredo Travieso – Neck (2:35) 9 mohammadreza - Tumult (9:05) 10 Prabuddha Mukhopadhyay - Sounds from my window (4:16) 11 Chiara De Roberto - Elaborazione di un conflitto (6:05) 7) David Upton - Requiem for London Diesel The 'keynote sounds' for London are closely related to diesel engines, specifically buses and taxis in the centre of the city: But, around 2023/ 2024, it became clear that this was changing. New technologies, made an increaing number of buses and taxis almost silent. What had once just been a vision was rapidly starting to affect the sounds of the city. I recorded diesel sounds around Waterloo and at bus stations in Waterloo and Richmond. I distorted else using a variery of techniques. I used "Microsounds" to suggest the way that memories decay. I played with frequencies. I also added some other London sounds: the chimes of 'Big Ben', sirens, and traffic noises. I turned my sounds into a short composition. The three 'movements' are: London Diesel as it was. A dying Diesel engine remembers its days of glory. Finally, switched off for the last time, and gone to silence. David Upton is interested in subtle differences, in conceptual art, and in discovering unseen patterns and inter-relationships. He embraces the digital world because it offers him such a range of new opportunities. http://www.codedwalls.com @codedwalls 8) Alfredo Travieso – Neck Neck is an audio experiment that uses textures, the body, language and electronics to mimic sounds of the imaginary. Born July 1, 1973 in Bogota, Colombia. Alfredo was trained in film and arts. His studies include a Bachelor's degree in Communication Arts from Marymount Manhattan College, film directing and production at Parsons New School University, and numerous production collaborations with New York University's (NYU) TISCH School of the Arts film program. He currently resides and works out of the city of Miami, Florida. He has obtained his MFA at the School of Visual Arts: Art Practice program in New York city, where has exhibited work. In Miami, Alfredo has curated shows and runs @trashroom_gallery, he has also shown work. https://www.instagram.com/zeligbot/?hl=en 9) mohammadreza - Tumult This sonic narrative is an exploration of the fragile threshold between the silence of nature and the inevitable clamor of civilization. Moving from the whispers of wind and birdsong into the melodic pulses and rhythmic heartbeats of the awakening city, the piece seeks to carve out a 'sonic sanctuary' amidst the overwhelming echoes of modern life. In an era shadowed by news of conflict and collapse, this work consciously steers away from depicting devastation. Instead, it weaves the innocence of children's laughter into a tapestry of solace, offering a refuge from the harsh frequencies of the everyday. It is not an echo of destruction, but a healing balm and an invitation to find inner peace and a reconnection with life's primal harmony in the very heart of a broken world. Mohammadreza Heshmat (b. 1997) is an independent artist and composer based in Tehran. I have developed my practice outside of traditional academic environments through private workshops and self-taught exploration. My professional focus lies in electronic music and field recordings. As a Santur player, my work involves integrating the techniques of this traditional Persian instrument with modern sonic textures and electronic processing. https://www.instagram.com/_mohammadreza.heshmat?igsh=MWs1cTJkN3B1emZsag%3D%3D&utm_source=qr https://m.youtube.com/@mohammadreza.heshmat 10) Prabuddha Mukhopadhyay - Sounds from my window This work deals with the sounds that I have encountered in my life almost every day. All of these elements represent a time of day. Every element has its own story, from the Aazan in the morning to the kids in the evening; everything has a personal memory associated with it. However, these recordings are around 3-5 years old. The soundscape has changed; the green field that was there is now being massacred for a building to rise. The children are thus absent. This work represents a time when I also had the ‘luxury’ of sitting idle and recording and listening to what was happening from my window. I am currently a student in the Sound Recording and Design program at the Satyajit Ray Film and Television Institute in Kolkata, India. Apart from film sound, my interests also lie in sound art and field recording, as well as how to shape them within the context of new media. Spatial audio, Binaural recordings, extended listening through unconventional microphones, and Ambisonics, all these are my other areas of sound interests. https://www.instagram.com/prabuddha._.m/ 11) Chiara De Roberto - Elaborazione di un conflitto The piece originates from the artist's troubled private and musical life experience, deeply marked by an inner division that reveals a perpetual state of disorientation and restlessness, precariously balanced between two worlds, two paths, two lives. The study opens with an obbligato on the sound of a metronome, which like a funeral knell accompanies the listener deeper and deeper into the tunnel of their own self. There, they will encounter their ghosts and fears, that will creep into the soul through projections and fantasies and will whisper subtly sharp words that create wounds difficult to heal. The piece does not suggest a way out; there is no courageous leap, no deep dejection. The worlds draw closer, attempt to unite, but it all resolves into just a heterogeneous mixture, in which the artist, lost, takes hesitant steps, dictated by an illusory equilibrium. Chiara De Roberto, Italy, pianist, electronic musician and sound designer. Born in Palermo in 1999, she began studying piano at the age of 9 at the "A. Scarlatti" Conservatory in Palermo. After completing her piano studies, she developed a passion for electronic music, beginning to compose as a self-taught musician. In 2021, she enrolled in the three-year electronic music course at the "A. Scarlatti" Conservatory in Palermo. Under the tutelage of Maestro Giuseppe Rapisarda, she graduated in 2025 and is currently in her second year of the two-year postgraduate program. Her compositions have been performed in several contemporary music festivals. https://www.instagram.com/chiaraderoberto/ Esyllt Angharad Lewis & Amie Huckstep - tatws melys (live in the studio) Esyllt Angharad Lewis & Amie Huckstep - tatws melys (live in the studio) 5 September 2026 5:00 pm - 5:30 pm tatws melys will be a new live 20 minute spoken-word and music performance piece putting the voice of Esyllt Angharad Lewis in dialogue with Amie Huckstep’s saxophone and clarinet, in a humorous and surreal exploration of language, its consumption and regurgitation. Esyllt will play with the sounds of her languages, Welsh and English, and use her voice to explore the tensions between them, whilst Amie cuts across and/or adds to this tension with the 'voice' of the saxophone - either accompanying, interrupting, or taking over from the spoken word. Working with liveness and surprise, much of the 'dialogue' between the voice and the saxophone will be improvised, with some parts carefully rehearsed, creating a sense of organised chaos, and the idea that anything may happen, that the energy of the performance could soar or collapse at any point. tatws melys will also include guest vocals from our friends and collaborators. Artist bios: Esyllt is a multidisciplinary artist, working across performance, drawing + printmaking to play with visual & oral language tensions. The guise of performance allows her to play, challenge and undercut tropes and stereotypes usually associated with minority language culture. She won the Eisteddfod’s Ifor Davies Award for her performance Blobus a Phryderon Eraill. Taking inspiration from Scotland’s landscapes and its wildlife, Amie’s work opens conversations between her voice and the voice of her surrounding world. Her performance plays with the saxophone’s boundaries; live-looping and effects transform the instrument into a conversationalist; field recordings create an expansive sonic landscape.

Bonnet - Banshee (21:38) 2) François J. Bonnet - Banshee Banshee is an ear directed towards the edges of the old world, where these infinite fines terrae cut and fractalize into coasts, harbours, fjords, peninsulas and archipelagos. Drawing its raw material from recordings made in the Inner Hebrides, Banshee tightly weaves a fabric where the sonic avatars of fauna, flora and climate merge with the human presence, its tools and its culture. Thus, a small boat cleaving through a loch becomes the voice of the mountains and wilderness, and the howling of the wind on the moors becomes the lament of a Banshee, harbinger of death, messenger of the Other World. The piece unfolds in seven interwoven moments: I Subharmonics (An Uaimh Bhinn) II Seabirds & fiddle (Rubha na h-Eist) III Impacts & Melancholy (Bodach an Stòrr) IV Spectre (Quiraing) V Cailleachan / Corryvreckan VI Distance (Loch Bracadail) VII Banshees Suk Yun Kim - (de)touch Suk Yun Kim - (de)touch 5 September 2026 6:00 pm - 6:30 pm (de)touch, a binaural radiophonic composition, is an obvious nod to Jean-Luc Nancy’s project on touch. When Jean-Luc Nancy says that ’[t]ouch belongs to every part of arts because touch belongs to every part of senses,’[1] he is arguing not only for touch’s primacy in every sense, but for the reason for its primacy in senses; being a movement in and of itself (‘when the movement stops, touch stops’), touch is the process, performance in other words, of every sense. As such, the being and the becoming of touch are inevitably fused. Every sense, including listening which is hearing’s becoming, performs touch as it creates and activates the ontologies of every sense. But how exactly does touch work here in listening? How does it move or perform? What does it produce and what are the consequences for listening? What do we ever get to know things that we listen to? Do we ever get to know things by listening? With (de)touch, I would like to tackle these questions, first by rendering sonic touch-images, if you will, of (intuitively speaking) and about (rationally or inferentially speaking) listening-with. Here the ontologies of listening-with are taking cues from Nancy’s being-with, which he develops from Heidegger’s Dasein whose existential condition is being-with others [2], as well as his analysis of the very act of listening [3]. Compositionally speaking, these are to be explored through creating various kinds of listening-with-others and observing the gaps and spaces, and the push-pull forces that these will engender. Secondly, with (de)touch, I aim to emphasise that listening as touch acts on the in-between space of limit and possibility[4], a distance or proximity that Nancy said touch needs to exist, and that it is precisely in this way listening touches—at the limit or on the surface of—what we can posit as knowing. Accordingly, equal attention is paid to the negative movement of listening as touch (hence the prefix, de-). (de)touch explores listening as touch and (de)touch in the composition with various excerpts from the field recording that I have done for Futures of Listening: Water Knowledge from Two Cities. Here, the structure has a loose two part-form. I hope that this two-part structure will give much emphasis on the process and effect of each movement of listening: touch and de-touch.

Biography: Suk-Jun Kim is a South Korean composer, sound artist and researcher/professor at the University of Aberdeen, Scotland, UK. He has published two books, Humming (The Study of Sound) by Bloomsbury and Hasla by Kehrer Verlag Heidelberg. His research focuses on sound studies, immersive sound, phenomenological approaches to listening, electroacoustic music, space and place. Having been awarded first prizes in international electronic compositions, Kim was a resident composer at Artists-in-Berlin, DAAD, Germany (2009) and a Leverhulme visiting fellow at the University of Aberdeen (2010). In 2023, he initiated a large-scale sound studies and sound art project Futures of Listening by collaborating with the National Asian Culture Center (ACC) in South Korea and has led its Sound Lab Team. Between 2023-24, He was the Principal Investigator for Futures of Listening: Water Knowledge from Two Cities, an ISPF ODA challenge-oriented research project funded by the British Academy between 2024-2026. http://reddoorsound.com/ Rocío Calvo - Las Gritas Rocío Calvo - Las Gritas 5 September 2026 6:30 pm - 7:00 pm LAS GRITAS (2024) were collective sonorous practices of resistance, generated by the so-called indigenous people, as a way of facing the colonising advance. Their reception was incompatible with the audibility of the Iberians ones and their purpose was to produce a vibration in defence. These phenomena and the ways in which sound is used for this purpose are described by Dr. Mayra Estévez Trujillo as the colonial regime or pattern of sonority. The radio plays a key role in colonial history and my work reformulates this sound practice, generated by people accustomed to war, in societies that used to live around masculine patriarchal notions of possession and destruction, in order to create a feminine narration as an anti-temporal refuge.

I visited the well in October 2021 and recorded an impulse response from inside its walls. I used this impulse to create convolution reverb that recreates the sonic imprint of the well and composed this piece as a way of showcasing the well's acoustic charater. So the composition is a portrait of an en-magicked version of the well. Even though the reverb recreates the well's character above the surface of the water, I imagined the music as a sub-aquatic field recording, documenting a much weirder habitat than expected and capturing the behaviour of the sanctified lifeforms living there. Francis Heery (1980)is an Irish composer, improvisor, sound artist and curator. His music is inspired by science-fiction, psychogeography and post-humanism. He performs regularly in Berlin and is co-founder of untergrün and Nexus, two monthly concert series dedicated to improvised and experimental music. His compositions have been performed by groups such as the RTÉ National Symphony Orchestra, Crash Ensemble, Quiet Music Ensemble, JACK quartet and many others. He also produces electronica under the name The Cube of Unknowing, with eight albums released on Fort Evil Fruit, Eiderdown Records and Library Of The Occult https://www.francisheery.com 2) Marjorie Van Halteren - Days are Short A very short piece in response to a prompt from the Junto project, a group based on Soundcloud.com, led by Marc Weidenbaum in San Francisco since 2012 -where musicians respond to weekly, fast-turnaround assignments to compose, record, and share new music. The idea is to use restraints as a springboard for creativity. This one was: 0629 - Jigsaw Logic / The Assignment: Break a piece of your music and put it back together again. Find out more on the weekly Disquiet Junto project and how to participate at https://disquiet.com. Marjorie Van Halteren was born in Detroit, Michigan. She lived in New York for 20 years, where she was a radio producer. She shared in three Peabody Awards for her work in creative documentary and live radio. Her work has also appeared on Radiophrenia, BBC Radio 3 and 4, WDR, Radio Netherlands, NPR and Studio 360 in the US. She has lived in the North of France since 1992, and is a member of the Muzzix collective in Lille, France. She records, composes, sings, and plays electronic instruments, solo, as well as in collaboration with other musicians. http://www.electroacousticalpoeticalsociety.com 3) Hector Bravo Benard - In the Fog This work is built up of noisy material produced using chaotic generators, which is then put through a signal processing patch made up of inter-modulated devices with audio and control signal feedback. This results in slowly changing sounds with ringing high frequencies and a dense spectrum. Multiple versions of these processed sounds are layered and arranged in space, resulting in static atmospheres that develop gradually and produce different micro-rhythms and interference patterns, with special emphasis on spatial and timbral counterpoint. There are also synthetic grain clouds that punctuate some of the gestures, as well as spatialized clouds into which the original material is scattered. The title is related to the sonic metaphor of being surrounded by a dense cloud of slowly moving fog. Originally from Mexico, studied philosophy and music at UVic, Xenakis Centre, Sonology, KonCon, Codarts, UNAM, DXARTS, and U. of Birmingham, where he received his Ph.D. He composes sound-based music focusing on timbral and spatial elements, and natural phenomena such as non-linear dynamical systems. His work has been presented internationally at major festivals and conferences such as ICMC, SEAMUS, NYCEMF, MA/IN, BEAST FEaST, and Sonorities, among many others. Lives in the Netherlands and Germany, working as an independent artist, researcher, and music-software developer. https://www.hbbenard.com/ 4) Szem - LIVE RECORDING - Gong Chengdu China October 2025 This piece began as a sketch during a live performance at Gong in Chengdu, China. I am looking for a platform to broadcast a new composition that extends this work, an experimental sound piece collaging cut-up near-death experience vocals with subliminal messages for heart expansion, framed within left-field electronic textures. As a performer, my goal is to make music that reflects the unseen - the interconnected, heart-centered beings I believe we are. I believe now, more than ever, the world needs music that pushes boundaries, and allows shadow to surface whilst inviting deep, cerebral reflection. Szem is the left-field electronic project of visual and sound artist Laura Hunt. Szem means eye. It speaks to the many ways we see — through the body, through the third eye, through memory, and through one another. Combining hardware synthesis and electronic sampling with percussive sculptures, cut-up vocals and poetry, Hunt creates immersive sonic environments. Atmospheric water is sonified through hydrophone microphones; glass sculptures are amplified and transformed into percussive instruments. Her compositions weave together analogue hardware and digital processes, at times embedding subliminal frequencies that invite expanded consciousness and heart awareness. Hunt’s practice seeks to decode and conjure. https://www.instagram.com/laur_n_orda/ 5) Jason Kerley – Ages A collage of meditation and new age cassette tapes, layered until they become a cacophony of indecipherable self help. This eventually makes way for an improvised ambient piece. Jason Kerley is a motion designer, electronic musician and artist based in Glasgow. His work is consistently inconsistent, unified by a passion for the importance of challenging convention through play. Jason has made music for over two decades under a variety of aliases, releasing on a several formats (with varying levels of obsolescence). Currently Jason performs under his surname and hosts a monthly show on Glasgow's Radio Buena Vida. https://jasonkerley.work/ https://www.instagram.com/JasonKerley https://www.instagram.com/Kerley_SND https://buenavida.co.uk/kerley/ 6) Aurore Juvenelle - Toc toc toc Who calls who? Where? And why? With excerpts from “Die Reise nach Lyon », by Claudia von Alemann, 1981Aurore Juvenelle is a historian, tour guide in Paris, archivist, and radio enthusiast. She has notably produced two radio documentaries about the trials of the terrorist attacks that struck France in 2015 and 2016. « Le procès du 13 novembre sur écoute » (Arte Radio) : https://www.arteradio.com/serie/le-proces-du-13-novembre « Nice, l’audience de trop ? » (France Culture) : https://www.radiofrance.fr/franceculture/podcasts/l-experience/nice-l-audience-de-trop-7174254 Counterflows live?

'Lugubrious' eschews a temporal or formal structure and instead seeks to negotiate the hinterland between outrageous solipcism and the interactive peaks of the unconscious. Expect joy and tears in equal measure for are we not the sum of all contradictions? Artist bio: These few lines must serve to convey the essence of the artist's long creatively fecund period on the earth. After several failed attempts at an education, he was taken under the Essex wing of the Poor Clares of Perpetual Notion. Slowly, under a reign of blows and religious brutality that would make a stay in Guantanamo Prison seem akin to a Club 18/60 holiday spa experience, he grew bold and struck out into a radiophonic bloom. This direction saw him spend the first of many gruelling hours in the field and the fruits of this practise are rotting delightfully. https://dietripcomputerdie.bandcamp.com https://www.instagram.com/unhappyfly?igsh=ZnA3MDgzNmwzN3Nx Fabiana Gibim - Nocturnal Methods Fabiana Gibim - Nocturnal Methods 5 September 2026 11:00 pm - 11:59 pm This mix is a sound collage composed across multiple space-times: a material of resonance and formless formation, signals without fixed origin assembling an imaginary cartography of sound. Deja Vudu operates as a radio-archive-in-motion, where memory is metabolized rather than preserved: fragments circulate, decay, return, and recombine, producing a geography shaped by interference, vibration, and fugitive listening. Emerging through close listening, shared research, and sustained conversations with artists working across experimental sound, radio, and theory, the program treats radio as a porous membrane between archival debris and lived presence. Voices, field recordings, speculative broadcasts, cosmic sonifications, and sonic fiction fold together, unsettling linear chronology and stable authorship. Developed during the 2025 Radio Art Fellowship at Wave Farm, this episode was shaped through exchanges with Kamari Carter, Kadallah Burrowes, Gladstone Deluxe, Celeste Oram, Gregory Whitehead, and Jay Needham, unfolding through in-person encounters and live broadcast on WGXC. Artist bio: Fabiana Gibim is an artist, editor, and curator from the border of Brazil and Paraguay, born into the Guarani-Kaiowá Nation. Her work explores sonic art and what she calls “nocturnal archiving,” a practice attuned to listening, memory, and the unseen. She is the co-founder of the São Paulo–based independent press Sobinfluencia and of the Nocturnal Lab, a laboratory for nocturnal and sound investigations. Fabiana has curated exhibitions at Yale’s Beinecke Library, where she was a curatorial fellow. She is researching radical archiving, radio art, and sonic experimentalism and is a Radio Art Fellow at Wave Farm. https://www.fabianagibim.com/ https://www.instagram.com/unarchivist_antifuture • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •	6 Laura Splan - Cryptic Lineages Laura Splan - Cryptic Lineages 6 September 2026 12:00 am - 12:30 am Laura Splan’s “Cryptic Lineages” explores emerging artificial intelligence that leverages organic systems to perform machine learning tasks. The work features a poetic narration read using an AI-generated clone of Splan’s voice that is accompanied by a soundscape created with reservoir computing and muscle movement data. Using “physical reservoir computing” as a conceptual scaffold, the narration delves into the use of liquid, microbes, plants, and human bodies to perform computational processes. Drawing upon real experiments using water, bacteria, strawberries, and living tissue, “Cryptic Lineages” problematizes the increasingly porous boundaries between the computational and the biological. The scripted narration interrogates the instrumentalization of bodies and how notions of the "natural" and the "individual" are shaped by the technological. Science and fiction are hauntingly interwoven through speculations on a future generated by the “ambient labor” of bodies. Artist bio: Laura Splan is a New York City based artist working at the intersections of Science, Technology, and Culture. Her internationally recognized work has been presented at the Museum of Modern Art (NYC), Brooklyn Museum (NYC), Musea Brugge (Bruges), Santa Mònica Art Centre (Barcelona), and The Nobel Prize Museum at Liljevalchs (Stockholm). Commissions include projects for Museum of the Moving Image, Vanderbilt Planetarium, Beall Center for Art+Technology, and Bruges Triennial. Her research has been supported by the Simons Foundation, Jerome Foundation, Creative Australia, and NEW INC at the New Museum. Awards include Wave Farm’s Media Arts Grant and AS220’s NEA Fellowship. https://www.laurasplan.com https://www.instagram.com/laurasplan/ https://soundcloud.com/user-376853047 https://vimeo.com/laurasplan Het perfecte stel Het perfecte stel 6 September 2026 12:30 am - 1:00 am All kinds of sound sources, dreams, and thoughts mingling.

Drawing on hauntological ideas — where past signals linger like ghosts on the airwaves — it listens for the spectral traces in transmission and memory. As analog crackle and distant carriers bleed into processed space, the piece invites us to tune not just frequencies but time itself. A meditation on absence and presence broadcast on Radiophrenia’s FM and online dial. Artist bio: Andrew Backhouse is an artist who explores themes of memory and absence. His work reflects the idea that the past is never fully gone and that even events which never happened still shape our present. Rather than telling straightforward stories, Andrew uses fragments of sound, images, and text that don’t fit neatly into one narrative. Andrew doesn’t simply use found and recorded materials to document reality. Instead, he sees them as elements to reshape, layer, and present in new ways to listen and see. His work avoids clear, literal interpretations, instead creating a sense of faded memories. https://backhouse.wtf https://www.instagram.com/backhouse_wtf/ Nestor Hiebl - The Bird Sings with its Numbers Nestor Hiebl - The Bird Sings with its Numbers 6 September 2026 2:00 am - 2:30 am The Bird Sings with its Numbers is an automated live radio performance conducted by a numbers station. A numbers station is a type of radio station historically almost exclusively used by states and militaries. They usually transmit endless series of numbers read out by speech synthesizers for reasons that are likely to remain unknown forever. "The Bird" takes the medium of numbers stations as a starting point for a sonic exploration of the institutional politics of technology. It broadcasts an audio stream consisting of real coded messages that listeners are invited to crack, giving the work an interactive dimension that toys with the irresistible draw of an uncanny and mysterious infrastructure. Artist bio: Nestor Hiebl is an artist and critical engineer whose work applies semiotic techniques to provide a coherent analysis of the power relations underlying contemporary socioeconomic developments, especially in the domain of human corporeality and temporality. Their practice makes a point of rejecting any reification of normative ideology and the technological complexes it is enmeshed in, rather suggesting a clarification of the social and cultural logic such systems aim to reproduce and perpetuate. They live in Vienna, where they currently study at the Academy of Fine Arts and work as an embedded software engineer.

The collective comes together on the first Friday of every month at 3:02pm ET using custom-made software. Some sessions don't have a description and the one on October 3th doesn't have even a title. However, some have a more detail description as in The Spiral: The record groove or a strip of tape moves forward by circling, slipping into another layer each time. That coiling motion echoes how time forms paths that don’t quite repeat. The spiral frames the way patterns return at different scales, from tiny biological curves to movements that shift light, air, and weather. A shared structure keeps resurfacing and shows how things grow and reorganize, how memory drifts, and how repetition comes back slightly off axis, opening another turn.

The project is inspired by my experience of misophonia (a disorder in which certain sounds trigger a fight-or-flight response) and the need to find control over sonic triggers, and to find beauty in something ugly. Artist bio: Ross Whyte is an award-winning Scottish composer who writes for film and theatre. He completed a PhD in Musical Composition at the University of Aberdeen. He later co-founded the duo WHYTE, an ambient electronic act known for modernising traditional Gaelic songs. The duo won the prestigious Scottish Gaelic Award for Arts and Culture in 2019.

Across the spectrum of frequencies, we cross the three rivers that meet the littoral zone of the Irish Sea, where the wayfarer, tourist, and resident zig zag blindly across the water, land, and airspace, in search of resolution and meaning. The estuary and its surrounds are populated by greenshank, wigeon, oystercatcher, geese, curlew, heron, cormorant, gulls, corvid and the elusive natterjack toad, who collectively sound out a multispecies milieux, fighting for survival, or just having a laugh. Engulfed by trains, trains, and prevailing so'westerly winds, the ecology is illuminated by uranium-filled flasks rumbling past, fighter jets patrolling the skies, and MOD shells firing into the sea. Artist bio: RL Wilson is an artist, researcher, and producer who predominately lives and works in west Cumbria, where he runs the platform RE Drift. Wilson's practice is multidisciplinary, collaborative, and socially embedded - focusing on liveness and place - working with, and combining sound, text, performance, and the moving image. He holds the current title of Egremont Crab Fair's Gurning Champion and pays regularly visits to time traveller Michael Moon's bookshop. These activities he is immensely proud of, as they highlight both the ugliness and beauty of this small portion of the earth.

IN THESE FRACTURED TIMES (12:36) 1) Emilie Mousset - Remue la Nuit Written and composed for Ondes de nuit#2 on the occasion of the winter solstice, at the invitation of Radio Canut. Broadcast on 21 December 2024 on Radio Canut 102.2 FM in Lyon (Lyon), for an entire night of live airtime. The proposed theme was ‘the longest night’. From this simple phrase emerged a text, oral and rhythmic, a poem that I recited and set to music in an intimate form. The title is a distant reference to Henri Michaux's text ‘La nuit remue’ as well as a kind of playful call, an invitation to the night, to continue and vibrate as long as possible. The piece was then selected for the Supersonique festival in Marseille and performed to an orchestra of loudspeakers on Sunday 7 September, during a day of concerts and long-distance listening, from noon to midnight, at the GMEM. Emilie Mousset is a sound artist and electroacoustic composer. After studying literature and dramaturgy, she trained in sound techniques at the INA and in electroacoustic composition at the CRD in Pantin (France) with Christine Groult. Her work combines radio and musical writing with broadcasting devices that favour listening in specific contexts: concerts of acousmatic pieces, installations in public spaces or landscapes. She also composes for the performing arts and visual arts, and regularly collaborates with directors, musicians and visual artists. She is a trainer at the INA (Paris) and runs workshops for a variety of audiences (schools, hospitals, prisons, etc.). http://www.emiliemousset.net https://emiliemousset.bandcamp.com/ https://soundcloud.com/emilie-mousset/ 2) Adrián Velasco – lespontanea Some captions published on a private Instagram account were verbalizing many thoughts that I hadn't yet been able to formulate. This piece collects some writings by @rosello.alba, attempting to find that curious point in her texts where the chaotic nature of the micro manages to balance with the coherent nature of the macro, without taking away the work's virtue of spontaneity. Adrián Velasco (2002, Malaga - Spain) is a composer and multimedia artist based in Hamburg. His work is characterized by a fragmented and maximalist language that investigates the dialogue between contemporary and pop/urban aesthetics. Attentive to the concerns of his generation, he addresses issues related to Internet culture, multiple identities and privacy in the digital age. His pieces have been performed in renowned national venues such as the Auditorio Nacional, Ateneo de Madrid, Museo Reina Sofía, Teatro de la Zarzuela, Centro Cultural Villa de Nerja, Sala Berlanga, among others. adrivelasco.com @adrivelaasco 3) Giovanna Turrini - ALL THIS CHATTERING AROUND. IN THESE FRACTURED TIMES Sonic narrative about the rift between anthropogenic noise and non-human planetary pulse, weaving together (see credits) hydrographic datasets, vocal compositions/experimentations from Ezra Pound, the logic of the algorithm vs. art possibility, ending up with the "Comédie humaine" of world-famous line Ridi, Pagliaccio/Laugh, You Joker juxtaposed with democratic protest. AI-TTS generated voices set against human vocal composition/experimentation. Certain hydrographic files, breath, final humming are processed by the Po River’s urban shores through the static amplifier Vaiacube made out of the resonating red spruce of the Vaia Storm destroyed "Violin Forest" (Dolomites). Further sounds/voices include original gramophone sound, river rowing training, plastic cork rhythmics, error signal, wood amplifier caressing. The work challenges the present algorithmic logic and (social platforms') chattering intertwined with the human and non-human perilous, present condition, singling out waters (and sound) as the connecting agency beyond borders and species. Giovanna Turrini – BRIDGES – she/her, M.A.: Venetian vocal inter-media composer and sound researcher, registered Music Composer at SIAE (Italian PRS) since 2004. With a solid academic backup (Venice, Seattle, Düsseldorf) and proven experience managing complex projects (budgets up to €20k), her work focuses on acoustic authenticity through a three-octave vocal range, original hydrographic datasets, own field recordings, and A.I. critical experiments (no use of audio libraries/presets/plugins). Her productions include works featured by Goethe-Institut Turin, Jewish Community of Turin/Regione Piemonte, Poetry Biennale Alessandria, and Festival CHIGIANAradioarte.it 2025. In 2026, she is scheduled for a monographic series (four "studiezondag") on radioarte.it. new.express.adobe.com/webpage/Rkel3QrhISiEv http://www.youtube.com/@BRIDGES-giovannaturrini bridgesgiovannaturrini.bandcamp.com/ http://www.linkedin.com/in/giovannaturrini Radiophrenia Shorts 2B Radiophrenia Shorts 2B 6 September 2026 8:30 am - 9:00 am 1 Yonca Yildirim - cyanea lamarckii (9:52) 2 Aled Simons - Hover-bored (05:20) 3 Sylvain Souklaye - instant + instinct + absence (4:41) 4 Frontera Glaciar - Fantasma Azul Imaginario (10:00) 1) Yonca Yildirim - cyanea lamarckii This sound work 'cyanea lamarckii' is understood as an exploration of a drift of a blue jellyfish toward its final destiny on the shore, moving from the distant sound of the waves to the subtle resonance of shells beneath the water, and finally to the last drops of water on the sand. The sound piece itself is not a chronological narrative of this event, but rather examining the awareness and consciousness of time. A sonic deterritorial experience culminating in the jellyfish’s demise. The beach as a place of foreign space of alienation and impuissance. The wave as a force that dissolves sonically into space, an oceanic gesture revealing both the beauty and danger of nature. Yonca Yildirim (1993, based in Cologne), part of the Mimosa Collective and séances sonores, works across installation, photography, and sound at the Academy of Media Arts Cologne. Her works emerge from the exploration of diverse materials and the interplay of components, incorporating layers, reflections, and transparencies as well as elements of fragmentation and abstraction. https://www.instagram.com/yonca.yil/ 2) Aled Simons - Hover-bored Hover-bored—written and narrated by Aled Simons—offers an imagined conversation with a real-life Marty McFly impersonator. An urge to ask this lookalike about growing up, and his relationship to past, present and future. Spiralling through speculative future fashions, time capsules on TV, Blue Peter in 1971 and Y2K. Zombie websites, link rot and the tomb of Saint Walpurga. The work observes the parallel space of doppelgängers and fakes. What imitations reveal about their counterparts, and vice versa, questioning if a counterfeit holds its own authenticity or remains just a reflection—an echo. An attempt to decipher what we choose to remember and how we decide to venerate; in what way should we dispose of that which we wish to forget? Specially adapted for radio, Hover-bored was originally commissioned by Nick Davies for forthcoming publication ‘Y Dyfodol Presennol / The Future Present’ set for release in 2026. Aled Simons' practice investigates anecdote, pseudo-science, ritual and memory. He often employs looping or repetition: animated gifs and half-forgotten memes. Early 1990s television and its specific place at the shift between analogue broadcast and on-demand viewing. Occupying a space between the tension release of a laugh and the awkwardness of things that go on too long or fall flat and fail. An attempt to preserve a skewed legacy of humankind; amassed debris at the shoreline after a catastrophic wave has wiped out most of what we once knew, or half-remember—re-interpreting or misunderstanding the idea of an heirloom. https://www.aledsimons.com https://www.instagram.com/aled.simons 3) Sylvain Souklaye - instant + instinct + absence (4:41) INSTANT + INSTINCT + ABSENCE is unfiltered and untreated. The more I listen to the noise of tyranny, the less I can process it. I decided to improvise around immediacy, intimacy, and the raw nature of sound, thought, and voice, and to develop a language of resistance. Sylvain Souklaye is a French-Caribbean, Brooklyn-based live artist and public researcher whose practice activates epigenetic dialogues and democratic interactions in public space through performance, action poetry, electroacoustic and spatial audio, and collective intimacy experiences. His socially engaged and politically radical work has been featured internationally at Chelsea Factory, Judson Church, New York Live Arts, Center for Performance Research, IRCAM, the Barbican, Bibliotheque Nationale de France, Performance Philosophy Biennial, and Ars Electronica, among others. He is a recipient of the Puffin Foundation Theater Grant 2025, fellow at Harvestworks 2025 and Target Margin Theater 2024, commissioned by International Contemporary Ensemble 2024. https://www.sylvainsouklaye.com https://www.instagram.com/sylvain.souklaye/ https://sylvainsouklaye.bandcamp.com 4) Frontera Glaciar - Fantasma Azul Imaginario In Fantasma Azul Imaginario (Imaginary Blue Ghost) an experiment with sounds is developed to create a project based on a real case. In March 2020, news broke of a sei whale stranding in the waters off Tierra del Fuego (Patagonia, Chile), and the incident was closed without anyone being held responsible. Ignacio (Frontera Glaciar), who has lived in the region his entire life, read the shocking news, conducted an investigation, and developed a project that seeks to bring to light, through voices and Patagonian marine spaces, the case that left suspicions about what really happened to this marine animal. Frontera Glaciar is a sound artist, performer, experimental musician, and DJ from Punta Arenas who blends Patagonian soundscapes with diverse voices. His work encompasses radio art, music production, sound experimentation, and live performance. He has created the shows “Fantasma Azul Imaginario” (2023) and “Fantasma Antártico Gris” (2025), which focus on science and daily life in Magallanes. In 2024, he released the ambient and experimental EP “Patio Nevado.” His concerts integrate synthesizers, machines, MIDI controllers, vocals, and sound objects, creating a playful and unique performance. https://fronteraglaciar.wixsite.com/site https://www.instagram.com/fronteraglaciar/ https://www.youtube.com/@fronteraglaciar Hannah Kemp-Welch - Sunspots and Earth Static Hannah Kemp-Welch - Sunspots and Earth Static 6 September 2026 9:00 am - 10:00 am Electromagnetic waves fill the universe, radiating from solar storms and bursts of lightning. Using simple, DIY tools, we can transduce these very low frequency (VLF) radio waves into sound. This is nature’s radio. In this piece, we hear from artists and VLF enthusiasts Alyssa Moxley, Dan Tapper, Hannah Kemp-Welch, Matt Parker, pantea, Rob Stammes, Sébastien Robert and Stephen P. McGreevy, who share stories of listening across decades and continents. Artist bio: Hannah Kemp-Welch is a sound artist working through social and collaborative practice, often in community settings. Her work frequently uses analogue technologies such as radio transmitters and mechanical cameras, valuing their openness to collective experimentation. Recent projects include 'All Under One Magnetosphere', a BBC Radio 4 feature produced with Oliver Sanders, and 'Listening Transmissions', a community project and radio installation for Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza, Madrid. She is a member of Shortwave Collective, an international feminist radio art group.

Serving as a refuge to some significant and nationally rare species the site’s diminutive size and open appearance belie the fact that through patient looking and listening a richness of place slowly reveals itself. Originally commissioned for Three Rivers Bexley, remnant horizon platforms the voices of this place - human and more-than-human - interweaving sounds from the reserve’s inhabitants with reflections from activists and advocates whose care and dedication sustain it. Their voices express a profound connection to the land and a commitment to its protection. Set against the ongoing threat of industrial redevelopment, the work carries a constant sonic tension, with human activity lingering at its edges. Sadly since its creation, expansion of neighbouring waste incinerator infrastructure has been approved, intensifying the loss of this landscape. Artist bio: Working under the name Action Pyramid, Tom Fisher's projects vary from site-specific sound installations for galleries and museums, to experimental sound works, radio, documentary film and music. Utilising a multitude of recording techniques, often aimed at exploring and re-interpreting the seemingly unnoticed and unheard elements of our surroundings, he looks to present compositional and spatial expressions of these phenomena in a way that attempts to offer up alternative perspectives regarding perceptions of scale, hierarchical bias and the interconnectedness of living things. He has performed and exhibited his work internationally and attended residencies in Colombia, Iceland and the Finnish arctic.

Experimental sound / multimedia visual artist involved with live Arizonan ritual ambient/dance theater group Butoh Sonics, Schadenhaus (industrial concrete noise), Smogma (free improv/kosmische), correspondence plunderphonics duo Sugar Pills Bone (with Teuthis Galore of Orb Tapes) and solo projects Stembreo (rhythmic noise), The Ɔrinkles (zolo/mashups/free improv),THE IDE OF EARTH (harsh noise wall), Dummy Rifle (power electronics), and Wretch And Reel (horror tape noise), to boot. pkwst.bandcamp.com 2) Lin Culbertson - Poetic Iteration "Poetic Iteration" is a sound composition that melds an ambient analog soundscape with the recitation of poet Yuko Otomo. Although the two sources of this composition were recorded separately and at different times, when overlaid on each other, a unique sonic quality emerged. The evocative spoken words and their interplay with the melodies and environmental sounds, imbues the work with an eerie soundtrack-like quality. A kind of score of a film that does not yet exist. Musician and composer Lin Culbertson’s experience as an improviser greatly informs her sound work. Her compositions are comprised of synthesized sounds, field recordings, and conventional instruments. They incorporate aspects of improvisation and indeterminacy in their creation, arrangement, and performance. She is a founding member of the improvisational unit WHITE OUT, and has performed and recorded with a wide range of artists, most notably Tom Surgal, Jim O’Rourke, Thurston Moore, and Nels Cline. Her most recent release is an album on the Daksina label under the pseudonym lin11c entitled TED - Teenage Engineered Daydreams (released 12/16/2025). https://linculbertson.net https://whiteoutinc.com 3) Masha Kouznetsova - moscow recordings Moscow recordings is an ongoing multidisciplinary research and documentation project emerging from the field recordings I collected during returns to my home city amid escalating repressions that force verbal communication into doublespeak. The current iteration of moscow recordings is a pathway through the city’s ambiance and a search for the sense of ground within its landscapes, personal and collective voices, resistance, and un/belonging within divided spaces. The sounds of the city were recorded directly to cassette tapes; the voices come from found homemade cassette recordings of an obscure quasi-religious radio program. These recordings were spliced, looped, and manipulated by hand. The process of fragmenting and distorting the radio voices became a cathartic, intimate intervention––a kind of breaking down of the wall of violent noise. Many thanks to a Moscow artist who gifted me found tapes with the recordings of the radio program which I used for this piece. Masha Kouznetsova’s work brings together analogue sound processes, performance, sculpture, and drawing/printmaking, with a focus on portable studio practices, salvaged materials, and site-responsive installations. Masha’s practice and research are grounded in personal experiences of transience and the search for im/perceptible connections within/between geographic and cultural worlds she moves through. Born in Moscow, Russia, Masha received her BFA from Georgia State University in 2012, and completed her MFA in 2023 at Western University in London, Ontario where she is currently pursuing a PhD in Art and Visual Culture. http://www.kouznetsova.cargo.site/sounds instagram: @mashakouznetsova Radiophrenia Shorts 61B Radiophrenia Shorts 61B 6 September 2026 11:00 am - 11:30 am 4 Yisong Piao - Apparizione Del Silenzio (6:44) 5 nazanin oghanian - milky uniform suspension (6:30) 6 Jason Bolte - M47 (7:24) 7 Cristian Gabriele Argento - 37.473686,14.075105 (1:00) 8 Jamie Lemoine - in-between (3:04) 4) Yisong Piao - Apparizione Del Silenzio Apparizione Del Silenzio does not contain “silence” itself—at least, not in the conventional sense of an absence of sound. Instead, it is built upon sounds that lie at or beyond the threshold of human perception: vibrations outside the usual spectrum, the friction between air and metal, the dissipation of sound waves in space—those margins of sound that are ignored, inaudible, yet undeniably existent. The apparition of silence is therefore neither stillness nor emptiness, but the manifestation of a presence perceived as silence. It is a non- sonic sound: at the limit of hearing, silence ceases to signify absence and becomes another mode of existence. The piece is written for tenor saxophone and electronics, combining fixed media with live processing of hyper-amplified micro-sounds from the instrument. Semi-improvised passages invite the performer to enter the interstice between sound and silence. (This is Fixed media version) Yisong Piao is a composer specializing in electro-acoustic and instrumental music based in Seoul, Korea. He is the researcher at the Center for Research in Electro-Acoustic Music and Audio (CREAMA). His works have been showcased at prestigious events like the International Computer Music Conference (ICMC 2023，China；ICMC 2024 Korea；ICMC 2025 Boston) in China and Korea, highlighting his innovative approach to integrating real-time computer processing with traditional instruments. His recent focus is on exploring microtonality and the possibilities of algorithmic approaches in composition. http://www.piaoyisong.org 5) nazanin oghanian - milky uniform suspension Every month, I waited to receive the injections on one side of a hospital curtain, listening to the fragmented sounds of a nurse mixing and preparing the medicine and the needles. The title, ‘milky uniform suspension,' is the technical description of the correct viscosity of the hormonal liquid I could hear being prepared. ‘milky uniform suspension' focuses on the ways in which those sounds of what I could not see evoked my imagination, and how this continues to be folded into my memories of the medicalization of my body. In this work, you hear the sounds of some found objects through which I studied, explored, and examined in a performative act. This is part of ‘Patient #17301’ series which unpacks the layers of control related to the medicalization of my body, through through my childhood experience of being treated for ‘precocious puberty’ — pubertal development earlier than clinical normative age. nazanin oghanian is a multidisciplinary artist and experimental filmmaker. nazanin’s work is rooted in critical reflection on themes such as body, identity, gender, memory, politics, and the ongoing tension between the individual and society. Their work explores how power structures manifest in the control of women’s and queer bodies, particularly through the medicalization of reproductive health. Working mostly with sensory stimulative installations, they are interested in discrete components of the auditory, visual and gestural aspects of memory and control. They currently live and work in Glasgow, Scotland, on lands shaped by histories of clearance, enclosure, and displacement. https://youtu.be/RGONbgDTdcs 6) Jason Bolte - M47 M47 is an electroacoustic work inspired by an image of the Phantom Galaxy captured by the James Webb Telescope. Jason Bolte is a composer and educator. Jason teaches music technology and composition at Montana State University where he serves as the Director of the School of Music. Jason’s music explores the North American mountain west, modular synthesis and live performance, intersections of music, art, and science, and spaces he finds compelling. http://www.jasonbolte.com 7) Cristian Gabriele Argento - 37.473686,14.075105 This work originates from a personal experience in the Sicilian countryside and opens onto a universal listening space where memory, geography, and perception intertwine. Created using contact microphones placed on an olive tree, it explores the hidden sonic dimension of a landscape shaped by the warm breath of the sirocco wind. From the trunk emerges a deep, resonant flow — the voice of the wood bending under pressure — while the branches reveal subtler textures, like flowing water. In Sicily, a land increasingly affected by drought, this sonic quality gains a stronger meaning, evoking movement and life within an arid environment. Rather than a document, the piece is an intimate and abstract sonic photograph of place. Here, nature and technology meet in silence, turning listening into a political gesture that gives voice to what is fragile and absent, and invites reflection on care for land and water. Born in Catania in 1998, Cristian started to make music as a self-taught at the age of 14. His interest in new technologies applied to music was born in high school, studying subjects such as electronic and computer science; during this period he did some extra school courses about new technologies and electronic music. After his high school studies he decided to make of electronic music his future so he decided to enroll at the conservatory of Palermo. Currently he attends the second year of the Master course of electronic music at the conservatory of Palermo. 8) Jamie Lemoine - in-between This piece takes sounds sampled from a home tape recording made around 1959 and deconstructs them, looping parts and playing with their pitch. The recording is juxtaposed with deconstructed elements sampled from a classical score conducted by Leonard Bernstein and the New York Philharmonic Orchestra a few years later in 1961, Debussy’s “Prélude à l'après-midi d'un faune” (Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun). This piece by Debussy, originally composed in 1894, is considered to be a turning point in classical music and has been widely influential. The home recording was made around the time rock and roll was emerging, just prior to groups like The Beatles, Jimi Hendrix and many others who changed the course of modern music. Jamie has worked with music and sound for several decades. An album he produced won best rap album at the California Music Awards in 2004. Jamie is now focused on creating experimental music and sound compositions, often including field recordings and found footage. The Irish Museum of Modern Art commissioned an original soundscape composition by Jamie in 2024, responding to an ecological site located in the grounds. A site-specific music composition of Jamie's was selected for inclusion in Sound Walk Berlin as part of the Month of Contemporary Music Berlin 2023. instagram: @pond.studios website: https://www.pondstudios.com/music Buffer Zone Buffer Zone 6 September 2026 11:30 am - 12:00 pm 1) Paul Nataraj - ACK STREET (12:03) 2) Suk-Jun Kim - Sealed to Become (5:42) 1) Paul Nataraj - ACK STREET One of several made during my artist residencies for the 'Contested Desires: Constructive Dialogues' project in Budapest, Hungary and Newcastle UK. They include interviews which I conducted with members of the community groups 'Mira Haus' in Budapest and 'Sangini' in South Shields, a Black and minorities women led community arts project who I had the honour of working with. The pieces bring together, field recordings, found sound, interviews, AI generated voices and spoken word elements as a response that is exploring the contemporary legacies of imperialism and colonialism, to consider how this sounds in the present moment. The works engage with the memories of migration, hidden stories and notions of belonging. 2) Suk-Jun Kim - Sealed to Become - From Humming (CD) ‘But most of all, humming is special among the vocalic sounds in that it is specifically directed inward, more than any other sounds. The natural omnidirectionality of the voice is hampered by the mouth shut, lips sealed, which reflect humming back to the self and amplify the function of hearing, listening in. In this way, humming always swirls toward the interior initially. And again, in this regard, the closed mouth and its sealed lips are functioning like a mirror; but unlike a mirror, they are not there to materialise the aural image, but to drive humming toward the interior. If the gaze is the scoping object, perhaps the hum is a hearing-listening object, or object h…’ – Humming by Suk-Jun Kim (2019) Biog Suk-Jun Kim is a South Korean composer, sound artist and researcher/professor at the University of Aberdeen, Scotland, UK. He has published two books, Humming (The Study of Sound) by Bloomsbury and Hasla by Kehrer Verlag Heidelberg. His research focuses on sound studies, immersive sound, phenomenological approaches to listening, electroacoustic music, space and place. Having been awarded first prizes in international electronic compositions, Kim was a resident composer at Artists-in-Berlin, DAAD, Germany (2009) and a Leverhulme visiting fellow at the University of Aberdeen (2010). In 2023, he initiated a large-scale sound studies and sound art project Futures of Listening by collaborating with the National Asian Culture Center (ACC) in South Korea and has led its Sound Lab Team. Between 2023-24, He was the Principal Investigator for Futures of Listening: Water Knowledge from Two Cities, an ISPF ODA challenge-oriented research project funded by the British Academy between 2024-2026. François J. Bonnet - Collapsing Aether: an audio-drift through the unreachable François J. Bonnet - Collapsing Aether: an audio-drift through the unreachable 6 September 2026 12:00 pm - 12:30 pm Collapsing Aether, as its title suggests, seeks to explore the concept of aether. Taking the form of a sonic drift, the piece navigates between the various incarnations and manifestations of the aether, from its primordial mythological form to the mysteries of dark matter. Through its various phases of substantiation, from ancient philosophy and traditional wave and gravitational theories to quantum physics, the work revolves around an elusive element and invites reflection on the challenges, limitations and promises of the unrepresentable.

This broadcast presents its sound component. It is an attempt to apply decolonial logic to the current war of conquest — a war with a deep historical and colonial dimension. A fossil is any preserved remains, impression, or trace of any once-living thing from a past geological age. We conceptualise this notion to frame the process of preserving remains left by the exhaustive industrialization and devastating war — plants, animals, humans. Their remains may be found in hundred centuries as memory of the devastations imprinted on the body of the earth. In hundred centuries the earth will recycle these remains into fossil minerals, which the US is trading for now. The land is under ruins, the soil is deadly toxic, but future of minerals are already resolved. It seems that US-Russian “superpowers” are dividing “the skin of the unkilled bear”. “Ukraine’s land, its geological composition, its agrarian capacities, and its population [have] become commodities” The soundscape consists of sounds of industrial extraction, mining operations, urban life during wartime, and audio from the front line of combat. link: http://www.nogr.me/fossils_of_slow_violence Artist bio: Nogr is an artistic and research collective. In 2022, the NOGR collective underwent a radical transformation. Today it is an open structure that still resists personal authorship, while manifesting personal responsibility for utterance and action. Our sustained work with political imagination and cross-border interaction no longer holds practical value within its original frame, as the return of "the right of the strong," imperialist war, and the maximization of information slop erases such statements and strips them of any practical dimension. Today we must build the preconditions for resistance, for pushing back against aggression and inequality — at the very least within the culture we can reach. We believe it is now necessary to focus on practices of "radical care," on images of resource redistribution through the loss and transformation of one's own identities (rather than their defense). Images of commonality within migration, exile, struggle, and horizontal support — this is our cultural goal. We understand that artistic research is a weak foundation for such a manifesto. Still, our attempts and our work will be directed at exactly this. We still believe that difficult questions and artistic images can contribute to positive change. An emerging decolonial optics within culture drives the disintegration of imperialist narratives, alongside support for the total necessity of the dissolution and destruction of empires as such. The colonizer's language cannot be decolonized from within its own grammar — which is why we believe it is now essential to change (to live through disintegration) ourselves as well.

Firecrackers, present during patron saint festivals and processions, are understood as vibrations that travel across hills, ravines, and bodies, symbolically activating collective space. The piece investigates how these detonations not only interrupt the environment but reveal the acoustic geography of the territory, transforming according to vegetation, humidity, topography, and local architecture. Based on field recordings captured from multiple locations, the work takes shape as a sound composition that renders audible what often goes unnoticed: distant echoes, resonances between mountains, and the charged silence that follows the blast. Through editing and electroacoustic processing, fireworks are reconfigured as a vibratory language articulating body, ritual, and territory, proposing an expanded listening of the landscape. This work was developed with the support of the Entornos Sonoros Call by the General Directorate of the Fonoteca Nacional, Secretaría de Cultura of Mexico. Alejandro Tux (Mexico City, 1984) works at the intersection of sound art and mycology. His sonic practice explores auditory experience through acoustic amplification, synthesis, magnetic tape, algorithmic composition, microtonality, sampling, multichannel audio, and field recording. He has studied philosophy and sociology of music, sound art, phonography, soundscape studies, and digital audio programming with free and open-source software. Since 2004, he has been active as an artist and promoter in Mexico’s experimental music community, coordinating the independent label Campo Abierto. Since 2010, he has documented and cataloged macroscopic fungi in central Mexico, collaborating on genetic-based taxonomic research. https://www.alejandrotux.com/ https://www.instagram.com/alejandrotux/ https://www.facebook.com/alejandro.tux.tux 2) Nathanael Jones - autobody (001-005 transatlantic metamix) On the morning of December 29th, 2024, a heavy fog set in. The flight was delayed, then cancelled. The residency and subsequent exhibition in jeopardy. It rained, and the rain and the money spent and the earliest flight coalesced around a performance/play text inspired by conversations had with a collaborator and friend. What we really talk about when we say things like, “gig economy,” or, “late capitalism,” is that the imperative to labour longer, more efficiently, and for lower pay is inherently skewed towards impotent economies of self-care, gender and race-based social death, and the tragedy of the commons played out at scale and across physical and virtual realities alike—indeed, there is no meaningful articulation of this division left. Overdevelopment signals a divergence within the praxis our progress narratives give rise to, an uneven reallocation of resources, value, and opportunities. In a feedback loop, attention attenuates ad infinitum. Nathanael Jones is an Afro-Caribbean Canadian writer and artist. Born in Montreal/Tiohtià:ke, he holds degrees from NSCAD University and the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Jones is the author of the full-length poetry collection Aqueous (The Porcupine’s Quill, 2024) and three chapbooks, Category Five Hurricane Alexa (Gordon Hill, 2025), La Poésie Caraïbe (Damask Press, 2018), and ATG (HAIR CLUB, 2016). His work has been exhibited and performed across North America and the United Kingdom, and has been published in DREGINALD, Ghost Proposal, Aurochs, Heavy Feather Review, TIMBER, Action, Spectacle, and Poetry Magazine. https://linktr.ee/NathanaelJones https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poets/nathanael-lee-jones#tab-poems 3) Tristan Rhys Williams - Llech-Tal-Môn (Pen Llech) These are companion ambulatory sound works on Ynys Môn, designed as slow walks through landscape, listening, and deep time. Hauntological in character, they approach place obliquely—through echoes, textures, and residues rather than clear narrative—treating movement itself as the work’s focus. The pieces are distinguished by their recording sites: Lôn-y-Bwbach near Llanddyfnan, layered with historical and folk memory, and the beach below Castell Mawr at Traeth Coch, where tides, river flow, and birds shape an exposed acoustic field. Across both, field recordings intertwine with the artist’s compositions and worn fragments of Welsh song, appearing like eroded sonic artefacts. The shared title draws on the myth of Llech-Tal-Môn as preserved and elaborated by Wil Ifan o Fôn in Bonedd y Cymru neu Lyfr Hynafion Byd, which describes an ancient cave system imagined as secretly linking road, farmland, hill, and coast—an unseen subterranean architecture mirrored in the works’ shifting, tunnel-like sound world. Tristan makes soundworks based on the psychogeographic charge from Ynys Môn (the isle of Anglesey). They work towards a ritualistic, degraded aesthetic informed by the elements and ancient sites in the environs. Recent works have appeared on the ‘Listen to the Voice of Fire’ collections: ‘The Shining Pyramid’, ‘The Surface of Past Time’ and 'Dylan Eil Ton'. Discreet Archive released YrbrydMôn in 2025 and Tristan collaborated with poet Rhys Trimble on the album Ynys Dywyll released by Ty Cerdd. https://tristanrhyswilliams.com/ https://www.instagram.com/trissyrhys/ Radiophrenia Shorts 18B Radiophrenia Shorts 18B 6 September 2026 1:30 pm - 2:00 pm 1 Water Feature - Various Birds - pond bather (1:11) 2Juliette Liautaud – Infraordinaria (17:41) 1) Water Feature - Various Birds - pond bather A collection of somewhat convincing birdsong and foley created entirely on a small battery-powered drum machine. Many imaginary and fanciful 'species' including the Pond Bather, Golden Nuthatch and Brown Yipper are featured. A long-form sound collage of many species is the central work, and 'close-ups' are also included. In one sense the project is a sincere tribute to bird identification records and tapes one would find in garden centres in the 90s, of which the artists have a large collection. In another sense it is an uncanny objection to a contemporary relationship with nature that romanticises and objectifies it from a safe distance. The sounds have been sampled in records by other artists, used in an extended arrangement for an installation in the Jardin Des Plantes in Paris, presented with narration by a supposed ornithologist, and are played constantly via an internet radio station. Water Feature is a 'collage band' formed of several contributors, creating utopian, absurd and low-fidelity environmental(ist) music. There is a strong reactionary and naive spirit to the project which aims to replace lifeless, boring, synthetic ambient music with an alternative chaotic, colourful and organic musique concrète. Recording and composition revolves around improvisation with cheap gear, tape-splicing and other uncivilised practices and accidents. 3 records (including Various Birds) have been released through the DIY Morsels label/collective. https://variousbirds.net https://morsels.website https://www.instagram.com/morsels.website/ 2) Juliette Liautaud – Infraordinaria Infraordinaria is an electroacoustic composition made of field recordings of ultra sounds of bats, sound objects, gongs and synthethizers, dealing with the infra ordinary existence of minimalistic variations we sometimes experiment in natural environments, when the days are elonging. It is a slow journey into almost invisible presences underlined by a minimalistic instrumentation. Played on acousmonium, this is a stereo version of the piece for radio. Juliette Liautaud is a visual artist and electronic musician based in Marseille, France. She makes electroacoustic compositions, photography and films, and is the co-funder of the publisher Stereo Editions. She has played her music under the moniker Lull and is a resident of independent radios Station Station and Lyl radio. julietteliautaud.com, Instagram.com/juliette__liautaud Jacob Dwyer - Tom's House Jacob Dwyer - Tom's House 6 September 2026 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm In Tom’s House, we listen to the diaristic meanderings of a man who’s returned home for the first time in 15 years. Walking up Haddon Drive he spots the house of an old friend, Tom. The front door is open, so he goes inside. Wandering around the empty Tudor cottage –making cups of tea, rearranging CD collections and zoning in on the minutiae of domestic space– he ruminates on ideas of emotional intimacy, friendship and grief. Tom’s House is a one person performed audio-drama that it incorporates voice, live foley, field recordings and an original soundtrack composed by K. Freund, Kareem Lotfy, Zuza Banasińska and Jacob Oostra. It was released earlier this year on Amsterdam/Paris based label, South of North. Artist bio: Jacob Dwyer is an artist based in Amsterdam working with audio, moving-images and writing. His work often centres around personal encounters that could equally be seen as fables or heresy. He has presented in art spaces, film festivals and music venues, including Cafe Oto (London), IFFR (Rotterdam), David Dale Gallery (Glasgow), Good Children (New Orleans) and De Appel (Amsterdam). In 2022 he released The Devil Museum on vinyl with Mana Records and has since published Notes on Devils with Building Fictions. Most recently he has released his new audio drama, Tom's House, on South of North.

Carla Boregas - Zona Morta: Wie fasst man ein Echo in Worte? 6 September 2026 3:00 pm - 3:45 pm When women have secrets, social pressure often plays a role. The stories they need to hide can be similar all over the world: family problems, abortion, sexual abuse, relationships, intimacy worries. Brazilian sound artist Carla Boregas has collected audio recordings from over 70 women of different nationalities and age groups telling their secrets. Reflecting on the question “Can a woman’s voice telling a secret resonate on other voices?”, she played these secrets archive to singers Audrey Chen, Anjeline de Dios, Cansu Tanrikulu, and Paola Ribeiro. Carla Boregas then assembled their improvised reactions into a composition. Commisioned and Produced by Deutschlandfunk Kultur and ORF Kunstradio. Artist bio: Carla Boregas is a Brazilian musician, composer and sound artist. By merging synthetic and acoustic instrumentation, her work spans composition, performance, sound installation and radio art. Boregas’ artistic trajectory encompasses performances and commissioned works presented at Rewire (NL), CTM Festival (DE), Le Guess Who? (NL), Akademie der Künste (DE), Festival Novas Frequências (BR). In 2022, she was awarded the European Broadcasting Union's Palma Ars Acustica prize for the composition "What Is Not / O Que Não Está" (Deutschlandfunk Kultur / ORF / CTM Festival), in collaboration with Anelena Toku and Martha Kiss Perrone.

The city exists and it has a simple secret: it knows only departures, not returns.” Invisible Cities, Italo Calvino Welcome to Hasla! A faraway land in which everything appears to be as strange as familiar; a place to which you have never traveled, yet one that resembles eerily every town you have visited before; a town at which as soon as you arrive, you realize that you have already left. Welcome To Hasla is a 5-channel electroacoustic music that is loosely based on Italo Calvino’s Invisible Cities. Ever since I read the novel, I have been thinking about, dreaming about, and imagining about an electroacoustic music that can somehow realize any of the cities about which Marco Polo told King Kublai Khan. Each story about cities that Marco Polo deciphers is a metaphor for regrets, memories, relationships, and other human conditions that have been inflicted on a traveler, who is presumably Marco Polo—and eventually Khan as he is the listener of these stories and the King of all these cities. At first I thought about a piece based on one or a few specific cities described in the novel, but quickly came to a realization that what I have had in mind is not any city Calvino wrote in his storytelling, but a city that I was able to conjure up while reading his book. Sungeun, my wife, wrote for me a list of 76 imaginary cities. Though the list bore only names, these names were intriguing to me. One particular name among these 76 names that caught my imagination as soon as I saw was Hasla. Strictly speaking, Hasla is not an unknown city. It is an ancient name for Gangneung, Sungeun’s hometown where I had spent my high school years and met her for the first time. However, the name had a more eerie and stranger vibe on me. And then, one day I dreamed of a writer: I am imagining a writer, who has just returned from a city of which name is very slippery for him to remember. In the middle of a night, he wakes up from a strange dream. Trying to write about the city he has been to and dreamed about, a name suddenly occurs to him: Hasla! But, at the same time, he is no longer sure whether he actually made the travel or his dream has finally caught him for good! Welcome To Hasla was commissioned by IMEB, Bourges, France, and composed at IMEB and VICC, Sweden. Biog Suk-Jun Kim is a South Korean composer, sound artist and researcher/professor at the University of Aberdeen, Scotland, UK.

Through the vocal performance of reciprocal poetry practice, ideas of language translation and transmutation between Arabic and English map onto potential communication thresholds between the human and non-human. The complex encounters of the divers with the sea is expressed through regional folk music called fijiri. Sampled throughout the work, it forms another strand of human vocalisation, often emulating the sounds and motions of the sea. Giving a voice to the sea helps express what is ambiguous and unresolved in relationships between the human and non-human. Perhaps through listening, a kinship can be found between the sea and the diver, where both have been exploited in the interests of that which wields greater power. Amanni Hassan Hollands is a British-Emirati artist concerned with frameworks of identity and time associated with domestic archives. The material and oral histories uncovered from her own family archive are leveraged to examine the complex nature of mixed ethnicity, towards a feeling of belonging. Her practice is formulated through investigative methods, and the interrogation of what can be derived from this personal archive and via recording the narratives woven by storytellers in the family. amanni_hh (Instagram) 2) Clemens von Reusner – SALIX “Salix" originated from an acoustic observation of the branches and leaves of an old "Salix Alba Tristis" (white willow) gently moved by the wind. These movements create sonic gestures and textures, reflecting also the life-giving and increasingly scarce water within the plant. The sound structure reveals spectral and temporal variations, which are further developed electronically. The formal proportions follow the golden ratio, evident in the intervals between the striking sounds. This piece reminds us that not only this mighty tree but all living beings and the earth that supports them urgently need our care and mindful treatment today and in the future. Clemens von Reusner, german composer ( 1957). His works of electroacoustic music and radiophonic audio pieces focus on both purely electronically generated sounds and sounds found in special places and processed in the studio. The work on sound itself, its arrangement and movement on individual tracks in the virtual acoustic spaces of multi-channel loudspeaker configurations are at the centre of his compositional work. He is member of the "Academy of German Music Authors". His works have been awarded with national and international prizes. They are performed at renowned international festivals for contemporary music. http://www.cvr-net.de 3) Vincent Eoppolo - God is Weeping Vincent Eoppolo (Ioppolo) is an American composer from Wilmington, Delaware. Eoppolo’s fixed media works have been presented at the New York City Electro-Acoustic Music Festival, Mise_En Place New Music Festival in Brooklyn, Utopie Sonore in Nantes, France and De Natura Sonorum in Rome, Italy.

By placing the recorder inside the confined, mechanical interior, the work exposes an otherwise hidden sonic landscape - low-frequency drones, compressor pulses, cracking ice, circulating air, and thermal shifts. The piece transforms an everyday appliance into an immersive acoustic chamber, revealing the intimate machinery of preservation and the subtle tension between coldness, isolation, and continuous mechanical life. Toni Dimitrov is a Macedonian multimedia artist, cultural producer, curator, radio host, and label owner whose work interweaves experimental music, sound art, and field recording. Active for more than twenty years, he has developed a distinctive practice that moves fluidly between experimental composition, radio art, installation, video, and photography, often linking sonic exploration with social and political reflection. He has released numerous albums and EPs through different monikers and collaborations on labels worldwide, and has performed internationally at festivals, events, and residencies focused on experimental and contemporary sound practices. Dimitrov runs the imprint Post Global Recordings and curates Élan Vital Recordings. Through his long-standing radio programs on Kanal 103, he actively contributes to the global discourse on contemporary electronic music, ambient forms, soundscape composition, and critical culture. His work has been presented in exhibitions locally and abroad, including the landmark survey Audiosphere Sound Experimentation 1980–2020 at the Museo Reina Sofía, curated by FranciscoLópez. Dimitrov has also worked on projects addressing political readings of the media.

Using Euclidean rhythms, layered synthetic instruments, and convolutional reverb, the piece creates evolving textures that mimic natural cycles and environmental resonance. Humanized timing and melodic motifs introduce organic variation within structured patterns, producing an interplay between predictability and spontaneity. Designed specifically for radio, it exploits stereo space, temporal layering, and spatial depth to engage listeners in a reflective auditory experience. Through its crystalline pads, expressive leads, and dynamic harmonic shifts, the work evokes the fragility and complexity of ecological systems, inviting audiences to perceive the subtle textures of sound as a metaphor for the environment. Euclidean Horizons is both an exploration of sonic geometry and a meditation on our relationship with the changing world. Sanjay Majumder is an experimental sound artist and composer whose work merges technology, music, and immersive auditory experiences. With a foundation in acoustics, music technology, and computer science, he creates compositions that integrate algorithmic sound design, generative processes, and spatial audio, crafting multidimensional sonic environments that engage listeners deeply. His practice spans software-based composition and research-driven audio experimentation, exploring innovative methods to manipulate sound through real-time synthesis, convolution, and machine learning algorithms. His works often blend structured musical forms with abstract textures, challenging traditional notions of rhythm, harmony, and spatial perception. 6) Ubu Kung - Insurrection Blues Insurrection Blues reflects on the next inevitable steps for a downtrodden world in turmoil. Simon Coates is a London, UK-based multimedia artist.

T. Sturm - The Terms Remain Generative AI technologies, such as large language models and image and music synthesis models, are being made broadly accessible as online platforms sporting simple interfaces and cheap subscription plans. Each, however, comes with a Terms of Service (ToS) that is not so broadly interpretable. This composition provides an accessible interpretation of the ToS of a specific commercial prompt-based AI music generation platform. Careful Robert Ashley (1930-2014) has had a significant impact on my musical aesthetics since I became familiar in 1995 with his opera Improvement: Don Leaves Linda. He speaks like people I know (Midwest USA), assembles layers of text and subtext wonderfully, and has a unique style that I enjoy. So, I wondered, how might he interpret the ToS of Udio? Then I wondered: How well can ChatGPT and Udio mimic Ashley’s inimitable voice? This audio-visual work answers that question. I find the output of ChatGPT to provide a Sturm is an Associate Professor in Computer Science at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Sweden and a composer. He specialises in music informatics, AI and music. From 2020-2025 he led a large research project called MUSAiC: Music at the Frontiers of Artificial Creativity and Criticism. https://bobltsturm.bandcamp.com/ 8) Alastair Cavanagh - Subterranea Those who inhabit the cities of this world spend an increasing amount of time existing inside of constructed interior environments. Publicly accessible infrastructure such as train stations and libraries, offices and retail facilities, and underground pathways that allow you to navigate below the surface of a city, all limit the amount of time necessary to spend in the exterior world while navigating an urban environment and the time spent interacting with the exterior spaces of a city seems to have become more of a transitional process necessary for movement between interior, constructed spaces. Stemming from a late-night phone recording of an empty metro station, Subterranea is an ambient soundscape composition exploring the cathedral-like qualities of vast underground public spaces. Alastair Cavanagh is a musician, sound artist, composer, and digital waveform manipulator currently based in Toronto, ON. His work encompasses music, sound design, soundscape composition, multi-channel installation, and interdisciplinary collaboration with fellow artists. Through his work he aims to capture the emotional qualities of sound design, revealing the hidden rhythms and melodies that lay beneath the surfaces of non-musical elements. https://alastaircavanagh.bandcamp.com/ https://www.instagram.com/ingo_svaan/ 9) Yifan Feng - 0.5cm to Milk Froth A close recording of milk froth on the top of the coffee, 0.5cm away. It sounds electric—but not—but still electrified me. Bon appétit, with only one cup of coffee. Sound is an unexpectedly acquired language for Yifan; perhaps it can say something through all her stammering. Yifan currently studies at the Academy of Media Arts Cologne, where her artistic practice centers on documentary film and sound art. She is drawn to questions of (multi-)language and expression, the (anti-)archival image and its apparition, secrecy and its translation, love and its loss, and the sudden arrival of the past in the present. https://shanghaioscillatorsgroup.bandcamp.com/ https://www.instagram.com/syi_ga/ 10) Water Feature - Various Birds - charnwood pigeon A collection of somewhat convincing birdsong and foley created entirely on a small battery-powered drum machine.

Starting with the first post-Soviet decade, I explore the modes of sonic subjectivity shaped by personal and collective experience. My aim is to generate something new—something that transcends the trap of mere nostalgic rummaging. In this work, I blend fragments of memory with the sounds of Buddhist temples, public gatherings, MTV pop, political speech, early TV ads, and Kalmyk music and language. Together, they reflect the mix of Tibeto-Mongolian, Russian, and Western influences that shaped the region far beyond the purely sonic realm. Artist bio: Victoria Sarangova (*1985 in Kalmykia, a south-western Russian republic) works with sound, video, text, and embroidery. Her frequently site-specific installations explore progress, memory, and identity. She graduated with a BA in Performance Design and Practice from Central Saint Martins, London, and an MA in Art in Context from the Universität der Künste Berlin. Her work has been shown at venues and festivals such as Spore Initiative, CTM 2024, Kunstraum Kreuzberg/Bethanien in Berlin, and Sound/Image 2023 in London. Sarangova is a co-founder of the MU Collective, a group of artists from Kalmykia.

Emerging from an ongoing dialogue between Paul Stan Nataraj and Masimba Hwati, the work grows out of years of conversations on sound, migration, Indigenous ecological knowledge, ritual, and the politics of belonging. Gathering fragments of these exchanges, the piece maps a sonic cartography of dust—as residue, witness, and archive. Moving between Blackburn, Nottingham, and Chernobyl, it traces the intertwined afterlives of industrialization, colonial extraction, and ecological damage, revealing how distant landscapes remain connected through shared histories of labor, contamination, and loss. Interwoven with these broader histories are intimate reflections on friendship, migration, ancestry, and the search for home. Through voices, field recordings, and resonant silences, Dust Cartographies invites listeners to hear dust not as debris but as a material that carries memory across places, binding damaged landscapes and lived experience into a shared act of listening. A Radiophrenia commission produced with the support of Creative Scotland. Biographies: Paul Stan Nataraj Paul Stan Nataraj is a British artist, researcher, educator, and sound practitioner based in Blackburn, Lancashire. Working across sound, installation, performance, writing, and archival research, his practice investigates the entangled relationships between memory, materiality, migration, and postcolonial identity. Through field recordings, ethnographic interviews, found sound, text, modified vinyl records, and recorded archives, he explores how objects and sonic traces become living repositories of personal and collective histories. Drawing on his own experience of mixed-race identity and the histories of the South Asian diaspora, Nataraj examines the enduring legacies of colonialism, displacement, and national fracture. His work foregrounds voices and memories often excluded from official histories, proposing listening as a critical methodology through which acts of remembrance, repair, and cultural negotiation can unfold. Records, recordings, and acts of repetition become sites where memory is continually rewritten, revealing the complex ways identity is carried across generations, geographies, and material forms. Nataraj holds a practice-led Ph.D. in Sound Studies from the University of Sussex and has served as a research associate on the Migrant Memory and the Postcolonial Imagination project at Loughborough University. His work has been presented internationally, including the British Textile Biennial, the Kochi-Muziris Biennale, Jerwood Survey III—the UK's leading touring exhibition of emerging contemporary artists—and Contested Desires: Constructed Dialogues, a major Creative Europe initiative examining the enduring legacies of colonialism through artistic research, international residencies, and community exchange. His sound works have been broadcast by BBC Radio 3's Late Junction, Radiophrenia, NTS, Resonance Extra, The Wire's Adventures in Sound and Music, and Berlin Community Radio. Alongside his artistic practice, Nataraj is an established writer on sound and contemporary culture, contributing to The Routledge Companion to Sound Studies, The Bloomsbury Handbook of Sonic Methodologies, Sonic Faction: Audio Essay as Medium and Method (Urbanomic, 2024), and Partition and the South Asian Diaspora: Exploring (Inherited) Memories and Creative Practices of Remembering (Routledge, 2025). His work occupies a distinctive position at the intersection of contemporary sound art, critical race studies, material culture, and artistic research, demonstrating how listening can become a practice of historical inquiry, social imagination, and cultural repair. Masimba Hwati Masimba Hwati is a Zimbabwean interdisciplinary artist, composer, performer, and researcher whose practice unfolds across sound, sculpture, performance, installation, moving image, and writing. Originally from Mhondoro, Mashonaland West Province, and now based in Vienna, Hwati explores listening as both artistic method and ethical practice, investigating the relationships between sound, memory, material culture, migration, and Indigenous knowledge systems. His work proposes sound as a living archive through which histories, ecologies, and ancestral continuities can be encountered, remembered, and reimagined. Working between acoustic experimentation, sculptural assemblage, field recording, ritual performance, and collaborative research, Hwati creates immersive environments where sonic and material languages converge. His projects draw upon vernacular technologies, found objects, environmental sound, and embodied forms of listening to examine the afterlives of colonialism, ecological transformation, and the politics of place and belonging. Hwati's work has been exhibited and performed internationally across Africa, Europe, and North America, including the 56th Venice Biennale, the British Textile Biennial, the University of Johannesburg, Black History Month Berlin, Radiophrenia, and numerous museums, festivals, galleries, and public spaces in Zimbabwe, South Africa, Germany, Austria, Belgium, France, the United Kingdom, Canada, Nigeria, and the United States.

His practice continues to bridge artistic research, experimental sound, and decolonial thought through projects that ask how listening might become a form of custodianship, relation, and repair. Yulia Glukhova / holoherz - ci(r)cadian rhythm Yulia Glukhova / holoherz - ci(r)cadian rhythm 6 September 2026 6:20 pm - 7:00 pm This compressed day cycle is perceived through the sounds of crickets, katydids, and cicadas, which were recorded during my solo hiking trip. The activity level of these insects is related to the ambient temperature, which makes it easy to determine the time of day and the state of the environment. Originally a multichannel installation, eight speakers were set up around a hiking tent to invite viewers to listen from inside. Temperature affects the sound these insects make, and temperature affects us humans a lot, even subconsciously. Having recently moved between several countries, I have had many thoughts and observations about how the climate greatly influences people's behavior.

The 18-minute audio piece unfolds as a guided meditation set within a rainy urban landscape, drawing listeners into a sensory and emotional journey. Through layered narration, concrete sounds, ambient textures, and carefully composed musical cues, the work evokes states of frustration, impatience, disorientation, and quiet release. Its sonic choreography amplifies the physicality of rain, movement, and urban noise, transforming everyday disruptions into moments of heightened awareness. Centered on themes of surrender and acceptance, BUS 59 invites listeners to reflect on the rhythms that govern contemporary life. By embracing unexpected turns and relinquishing control, the piece creates a space for contemplation—where chaos and harmony coexist—and encourages a deeper understanding of the self within the wider emotional and societal landscape. Artist bios: Lorie Ballage (FR/NO) is a Bergen-based visual artist whose practice explores watery utopias, emotional tension, and the poetics of surrender. Working across ceramic installation, sound, and text, she creates immersive environments that invite introspection. She holds an MFA from the Art Academy in Bergen and exhibits widely across Europe. Mathias Loose (DK) is a Copenhagen-based composer and sound artist blending electronic and analogue textures into emotionally rich sonic worlds.

The material includes recordings made in a local park, sounds of my niece and nephew, traffic, and trains passing through the area. For much of the piece, these sounds reflect the parts of Hachioji that I am particularly drawn to: quiet, beautiful, calm, with a sense of night-time nostalgia. Later in the piece, there is a sudden shift, as recorded train announcements (Hachiōji and Nishi-Hachiōji) come to the foreground. The piece is both a personal response to a place I love and a record of my time spent listening within it. Ben Gaunt is a Yorkshire-based composer, sonic artist and improviser, and Professor of Composition at Leeds Conservatoire. His music has been performed internationally by the London Symphony Orchestra, London Sinfonietta, Psappha, the Ligeti Quartet, Rarescale, Grimethorpe Colliery Band and many others. His music has been broadcast on BBC Radio 3, premiered at hcmf//, and he has been nominated for a British Composer Award and an Ivor Novello Award. His electroacoustic work has been selected through international open calls, including winning Bent Frequency’s Underscore competition, leading to a performance in Atlanta. bengaunt.com https://soundcloud.com/bencomposer https://x.com/bencomposer/ 2) Fabio Bola e Alex Hamburger - Grasev Nrt Re GRASEV NRT RE Fabio Bola / Fabio Mourilhe This work proposes a surgical intervention and a sonic archaeology operation on one of the monuments of Brazilian literature, the novel Grande Sertão: Veredas , by João Guimarães Rosa. Using a radical vertical “cut-up” on pages 124 and 125 of the book, 1968 edition by Editora José Olympio, the piece treats the printed page as a geographical territory . The strips of paper become fissures in the landscape of Rosa's prose , destroying the horizontal narrative to release the raw, phonetic, percussive, and unfiltered language of the sertão (backlands). It is not a reading, it is an excavation. Concept The artwork “GRASEV NRT RE” establishes a tense and revealing relationship with Grande Sertão: Veredas by João Guimarães Rosa. Through the technique of vertical “ cut -up ” applied to pages 124 and 125, the artwork does not seek to “read” the book, Fabio Mourilhe (Fabio Bola) has a PhD in art from UERJ, a post-doctorate in art from UFRJ, a master's degree in design from PUC-Rio and a degree in web design. He also has a PhD and a degree in philosophy (UFRJ and UERJ). He has been creating new productions and curating diverse works in art, video art, and integrated arts. He won the award for best video art for “Aion”, chosen by the public at MFL 2024, Brasil. With "Burn", he won a special jury prize at the 2nd Yeosu International Web Drama Film Festival, South Korea.

Electronic sounds came to life when they're out of control, letting unpredictability and chaos driving the way Based in Brussels, Jérémy Bocquet (Cornil) is a sound artist whose practice revolves around fostering dialogues between sound and space, deeply engaging in the nuances of auditory perception. His work intricately blends poetic and philosophical dimensions of sound experience, delving into the concept of «inframince» — subtle yet profound differences found in the intervals between places and beings. https://cornilmusic.bandcamp.com/ https://soundcloud.com/cornilmusic 4) Leila Peacock – CHOIR The work CHOIR is composed of three singing voices, which is my voice three times. This 12 minute playback-loop begins with the three of them whispering in unison, barely audible incantations of some unspecific ritual text. They then break into a three-hymn-cycle, before returning to whispering and then falling silent. These ‘alchemical hymns’ are loosely inspired by the great 17th century alchemist Michael Maier’s Hermetic work ‘Atalanta Fugiens’, they are also inspired by my continuing engagement with the tradition of female mystics, especially the work of Hildegard of Bingen, whose extraordinary visions also manifested in both choral music and illuminated texts. The lyrics to the songs contain ideas around creation, experimentation, transformation, harmony, and the search for form. I am fascinated with alchemy as a metaphor for art-making, as a form of thinking that uses symbols intuitively to capture a hidden knowledge beyond our rational understanding. Leila Peacock (1981 UK, studio in Zürich, lives in Basel). After studying both literature and fine art, her practice inhabits a place between writing and drawing, Recently she has added an element of song. Her work shows the various influence of medieval alchemical manuscripts, comic books, 18th century satire, sci-fi, experimental fiction, female mystics, elements of her Persian heritage and most recently the traditional english hymnary. @leilaleilapeacockpeacock leilapeacock.com Radiophrenia Shorts 39B Radiophrenia Shorts 39B 6 September 2026 8:30 pm - 9:00 pm 1 Marco Dibeltulu - Contrasti armonici (6:52) 2 Sara Maino & Claudia Ferretti Isonde - A cave’s dream (5:15) 3 Sergio Salazar – Biocoenosis (10:04) 4 SASOR – ROSAS – SINTONIZAR (2:13) 1) Marco Dibeltulu - Contrasti armonici The idea of the piece comes from the choice of the material for its construction: the harmonics, fundamental elements for the generation of each complex timbre. The sounds used are exclusively synthetic, made with various synthesis techniques (additive, subtractive, FM and granular). Formally it can be divided into three parts: the first, quite fragmentary, is made up of “clouds” of impulses and “grains”; the second incorporates some elements of the first with overlapping sound bands, and finally the third is a crescendo of bands that culminates in the finale, characterized by overlapping cyclic elements. The result is a harmonic texture, now dense, now rarefied, where the play of counterpoint, even the implicit one, the opposition between different sound masses and the contrasts of chiaroscuro determine the structure of the whole. Marco Dibeltulu studied at the Conservatory of Cagliari Composition, Choral Music and Electronic Music. He teaches Musical Technologies at the Liceo Musicale “D. A. Azuni”, Sassari. His compositions have been selected in many competitions, as 24th International Electronic Music Competition “Luigi Russolo” – Varese; 6th International Computer Music Competition “Pierre Schaeffer” 2007 (1st Prize) – Pescara; ICMC 2012 – Ljubljana; NYCEMF 2014, 2015 – New York City; Soundcinema Düsseldorf 2022 (1st Prize); The San Francisco Tape Music Festival 2023, 2025.

The vocal performance of a group of children transports us into a dreamlike atmosphere. Here, their listening voices try to tune in to the language of the rocks, wishing to start a dialogue of sounds. Sara Maino is an Italian Sound and Audio-visual artist, author, poet and performer, film and theatre director, and a community-engaged researcher. Claudia Ferretti is an Italian Sound Artist, singer and facilitator of Collaborative Vocal Improvisation, Soundwalk conductor, poet and author. http://www.saramaino.it https://www.instagram.com/maino9800 https://www.facebook.com/mainosara/ https://soundcloud.com/sara-maino https://claudiaferretti.bandcamp.com https://www.facebook.com/audiay https://www.instagram.com/isonde/?hl=it http://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1NwaP5jGen9oIcnRaQQAfQ 3) Sergio Salazar – Biocoenosis Biocoenosis is structured around the concept of biocoenosis as a network of interdependent living systems. The work approaches sound as a relational structure in which texture, timbre, and tempo function as organizing forces within a continuously evolving environment. Through processes of interaction and mutual influence, acoustic and electronic materials unfold as coexisting entities, responsive to gradual transformations and shifting states of balance. These relationships suggest models of coexistence, inviting modes of listening centered on adaptation, interdependence, and equilibrium within the sonic ecosystem. Sergio Salazar is an emerging latin american composer and sound designer. His compositions have premiered in Mexico, including: The Cinco Cinco Cinco Contemporary Music Concerts at the Center of the Arts in Monterrey (2022), and in Mexico City at the Casa de la Paz Theater. He studied musical composition at the National University of La Plata and continued to explore experimental music through artistic residencies. His work lives at the intersection of sound, image, and the unseen structures that bind them, drawing inspiration from the aleatory patterns of nature, like the fractal sprawl of branches, the rhythmic pulse of water. http://www.sergio-salazar.com 4) SASOR – ROSAS – SINTONIZAR ROSAS marks the tenth anniversary of SASOR — the SAS Orkestra de Rádios — a collective that transforms antennas and radios into sculptural musical instruments activated through touch and real-time tuning. Founded in 2013 by Sónia Moreira, Ana Trincão and Simão Costa, the group works through a horizontal, co-creative structure that merges visual arts, performative movements and sound. Built from the collective’s personal and unpublished archive of recordings, the project revisits a decade of experimentation shaped by white noise, industrial acoustics, murmurs, disorder and the inherent unpredictability of radio waves. These volatile instruments generate loops, feedback and chance interactions between technology, DIY practices and performative gesture. Over time, SASOR incorporated rhythms, sampling, voices and natural elements, expanding its sonic vocabulary while maintaining its core radio-based identity. ROSAS culminates in new studio recordings that consolidate this trajectory and broaden the collective’s reach to wider audiences. SAS Orkestra de Rádios (SASOR) is a meta-orkestra that builds and performs with unusual instruments made from analogue antennas and modified pocket radios, treated as sculptural sound objects that interact with radio waves. Touch between skin and antenna functions as the central sound modulator. Founded in 2013 by Sónia Moreira, Ana Trincão and Simão Costa—artists trained in Visual Arts, Performance and Music—SASOR developed a transdisciplinary, co-creative and horizontally directed identity. Its experimental practice embraces noise and improvisation, shared with audiences through concerts and hands-on workshops. In 2020, the group founded Circuito–Associação Cultural to further support its artistic projects. https://sasorkestraderadios.bandcamp.com/album/rosas https://www.instagram.com/circuito.ac/ https://cargocollective.com/sasorkestraderadios/ https://www.facebook.com/sasorkestraderadios/ Candice Savoyat - Shine a light on the darkness Candice Savoyat - Shine a light on the darkness 6 September 2026 9:00 pm - 10:00 pm 80 years after the end of World War II, what remains? Candice Savoyat retraces her family’s footsteps. First to Chemnitz, Germany, where her maternal grandmother was born to a Polish Jewish father, before fleeing to France. Then to Mauthausen, Austria, where her paternal great-grandfather, who had joined the Resistance, was deported. By connecting these two family histories, she brings them into dialogue with the present, gathering the voices of strangers met along the way. An intimate and universal journey, to be listened with headphones. Created by: Candice Savoyat Music: Amédée de Murcia Mixing: Jules Wysocki Translation: Céline Gay Artist bio: Candice Savoyat is a radio columnist, sound artist, and educator with a deep passion for the radio and sound medium. Since 2018, she has been contributing to Radio Vostok, a local community station in Geneva, Switzerland. In 2020, she turned to sound creation and was awarded Radio Bascule’s first sound creation grant (Meyrin, Switzerland) for her project Voyages en messagerie (“Travel to Voicemail”). She has since produced a range of sound pieces for Swiss cultural and academic institutions. In 2024, she received the first City of Geneva grant supporting audio creation and produced Shine a light on the darkness.

Here, it is applied to the industrial reality of Chile’s central coast, in the officially designated “Sacrifice Zone of Quintero-Puchuncaví.” Toxic measurements in Quintero Bay have historically been extremely high, far exceeding safety standards. Mining and electrical infrastructure activities by several corporations in the area have caused multiple ecological disasters, some making headlines with school evacuations and toxic spills into the Pacific Ocean. This work approaches the issue as a sonic research, using field recordings, processing, extended vocal techniques and composition to create a slow, suffocating auditory experience. Jaime Cid-Lara is a Chilean composer. He works with layers, creating pieces that function as systems: sound art, spatialization, new media, electroacoustic music, contemporary composition, algorithms, and non-acoustic musical instruments. His works often explore themes such as territory, disasters, power, and contemporary politics and geopolitics. He is the creator of the Sinfonía++ (augmented symphony) format, using these layers to approach historical events as total, immersive musical works. His interest lies in exploring boundaries and questioning what music means. http://www.instagram.com/jotacidlara http://www.jaimecidlara.com 2) John Grieve - A song from the machine For many years I have been creating audio works under the name Hastings of Malawi. These exist as vinyl records, CDs and digital releases. I have always considered these to be radio plays and any or all of them would sit well on Radiophrenia and are available to you if you want to broadcast them however you are asking for submissions of work that is not available elsewhere so I am submitting a new short radio play. The play reflects on the communication between humans and machines and asks if the machine would ever start to sing. John Grieve is a British sound artist, saxophonist, and poet whose work explores the intersections of sound, language, and material form. He is a founder of the experimental group Hastings of Malawi. He approaches sound as a sculptural medium—one capable of shaping space, perception, and experience. His work collapses distinctions between poetry, sculpture, and music treating them as interconnected modes of expression rooted in critical inquiry. His work invites a slower, stranger form of listening somewhere between sound and memory and suggests that experimentalism is not a genre but a way of resisting habitual modes of production and attention. https://johngrieve.org 3) Dana Ollestad - Seis días sin luz "Seis días sin luz" is a sound collage composed from recordings of electric light captured optically through hand-built solar panel pickups, converting emitted light into audio signal. The work contains no digital processing; it presents only the sounds of light. The piece references recurring power outages experienced by my family in Cuba, where aging and strained electrical infrastructure regularly leaves homes without electricity for hours or days. In 2024, an island-wide blackout lasted four consecutive days. The title, “Six Days Without Light” in Spanish, alludes to a fictional yet extremely plausible near-future outage of even longer duration, as ongoing political pressures from the USA and international policy shifts further strain the island’s infrastructure and threaten the nation's people. By translating light, an emblem of stability and continuity, into unstable electrical sound, the work listens to illumination as both material and precarity. Dana Ollestad is a Cuban-American multi-media artist and educator, exploring loss, distance, and pixelating memories. He works with lens and time-based media, installation, performance, and utilizes field recordings, found sounds, and hand-built light-sensitive microphones. He co-curated Sediment Art Space in Richmond, VA for 6 years, and is the recipient of the Virginia Museum of Fine Art Fellowship. He is an adjunct professor at Virginia Commonwealth University, in Richmond Virginia, and Western Washington University, Bellingham Washington. https://danaollestad.com/ https://www.instagram.com/dana_explosions/ https://danaollestad.bandcamp.com/ Radiophrenia Shorts 34B Radiophrenia Shorts 34B 6 September 2026 10:30 pm - 11:00 pm 1 Leonie Roessler - Emma's Hof (3:36) 2 Amy Gowen - I Make The Bed (9:52) 3 Cláudio de Pina - Svart Hål (9:27) 4 Alan Ahued Naime - Los Diarios (6:00) 1) Leonie Roessler - Emma's Hof Emma's Hof is a small oasis in the very dense city of The Hague. The space was secured through community engagement. The inhabitants of the neighborhood literally created an oasis out of rubble. A space which now hosts native plants, insects, birds, and even frogs. Emma's Hof is a place where nature can grow, people can find refuge from their daily lives, and where kids from all sorts of cultural backgrounds can interact respectfully with plants, animals, water, and each other. Leonie Roessler - Composer, Performer and teacher based in The Hague, Netherlands. Leonie captures her environment with field recordings, which she uses for radio pieces, sound installations, and instrumental compositions. Part of her work is purely sound-based, however the theme of marginalization has become increasingly present in her radio works. She is part of LOOS in The Hague, and co-curates On Air - On Site Festival and BUG Radio. Her works have been released through Musica Dispersa (Spain/UK), and Noise á Noise (IR/DE), Biodiversitàs (IT), Syrphe (DE), and Antilounge (NL) and have been physically archived in the British Library. http://www.leonieroessler.com Facebook: Leonie Roessler Instagram: ljroessler 2) Amy Gowen - I Make The Bed In ‘I Make My Bed’, a hypnotic, associative, out-of-time, text-based sound work, our protagonist repeats the daily, humdrum activity-come-mantra of making the bed: a task which is typically our very first, and yet often most challenging act of the day. All whilst contemplating the breakdown of planet, society, social relations, health, and body. The work contends with the friction of the docile demands placed on a body throughout a life, especially in contexts of domestic or reproductive labour, against the chasmic interiorites of the mind, as well as the many forms of ‘self’ we embody and encounter across time and space; punctuated through the rhythmic repetition of our daily actions. Amy Gowen is a writer and editor originally from Hereford, UK, now based in Rotterdam, NL, who works with text-based practices across the mediums of writing, publishing, radio, and curation. She works for School of Commons, a peer-learning alternative education programme, and co-founded the commons-informed publishing project HumDrumPress. She runs the writing and radio project Off Margin on Substack and Radio Worm, dedicated to interior and exterior reading and writing lives, and text that moves off the page. In her spare time she writes experimental and literary fiction. https://www.instagram.com/off_margin_/ https://substack.com/@offmargin?utm_source=menu https://www.instagram.com/amygow/ 3) Cláudio de Pina - Svart Hål Svart Hål is the Swedish word for black hole. The piece is an homage to Ingmar Bergman. The quotation is from the film Vargtimmen (1968) (The Hour of the Wolf). Vargtimmen is also the moment when most births and deaths occurs, so it relates to time and the cycle of life. A black hole also represents a cycle of death and life. The quote on this piece belongs Max Von Sydow, were he talks about time. Coincidentally, this piece was composed during the time EHT team captured the first image of a black hole (in the center of M87 galaxy) in April, 2019. Several sounds of black holes where used taken from the free sound folio of NASA. Other sounds, like clocks, bells and cuckoo clock represent the passing of time, accelerating, decelerating or being frozen, mimicking the effect of a naked singularity. Cláudio de Pina (1977-) is a sound artist, organist, and composer. He is the titular organist of the historic organ at the Parish Church of Ajuda (Lisbon). Integrated researcher at GIMC (CESEM, FCSH). PhD in Musical Arts (summa cum laude) with a diploma in Advanced Studies (FCSH/ESML) as an FCT scholarship holder. Master's degree in Musical Arts (with distinction on the Dean’s Honour Roll, FCSH). He studied at the Gregorian Institute of Lisbon, Hot Jazz Club, and Engineering Physics (FC). He dedicates his artistic and academic work as an organist and composer in the field of contemporary music. https://www.claudiodepina.com/ 4) Alan Ahued Naime - Los Diarios This piece was commissioned by the artist Iván Navarrete, who during the 2020 was living in the mountains of Morelos, Mexico. From there, he recorded AM radio signals coming from several countries. At night, AM signals can travel very long distances by reflecting off the ionosphere. This phenomenon, known as skywave propagation, allows signals to travel thousands of kilometers. While listening to the recordings, Iván noticed unexpected interference and later discovered it was caused by bats flying nearby. From these recordings, he commissioned me to compose an electroacoustic piece. For Los Diarios, I focused on the voices carried by these radio waves to reflect on the shared reality we experienced during the pandemic. Alan’s work is very often standing in the space where music/sound and other disciplines meet. With a background in music composition and multimedia art, his practice is related to sonic perception and interactivity along with his interest in communication processes and the creation of spaces for communality. His research is practice based, conducting experiments through sculptures, installations, and music composition. His pieces have been selected and awarded in several international competitions and festivals. In addition, his works have also been featured in solo and group exhibitions. https://www.alanahuednaime.com/ Simon Šerc & Martina Testen - A Journey Through the Sounds of the Night Simon Šerc & Martina Testen - A Journey Through the Sounds of the Night 6 September 2026 11:00 pm - 11:59 pm A Journey Through the Sounds of the Night is a 49-minute immersive composition by Simon Šerc and Martina Testen that transforms nocturnal field recordings into an artistic exploration of the hidden lives unfolding after sunset. Tracing the natural arc of a single night, the work reveals the forest as a sentient ecosystem where owls call, stags roar, wolves howl, and countless small creatures navigate darkness with intelligence and purpose. Over 200 audio tracks are woven into a non-repeating sonic tapestry where each sound appears once, at its own duration, creating an unrepeatable nocturnal journey. Neither documentary nor nature program, this work uses radio's intimate qualities to collapse the distance between listener and wilderness, inviting meditation on animal consciousness and the fragility of ecosystems threatened by human encroachment. The composition plays to radio's unique power to create immersive darkness - transforming listening into witnessing. Artist bio: Simon Šerc and Martina Testen are internationally recognized audiovisual artists working across sound, video, and contemporary art. Their projects have been presented at numerous international festivals, including Ars Electronica, Athens Digital Arts Festival, Miami New Media Festival, Art & Science Days, Rome Art Week, and have been featured in major media outlets. Their acclaimed sound albums, such as Biodukt, Ekodukt, and Bora Scura, have been ranked among the best in field recording. Working in tandem, they are known for distinctive field recordings and explorations of time and perception, creating immersive audiovisual worlds that merge artistic experimentation with technical precision. • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •

When the landscape is just a single horizontal slash, emptiness becomes a comfort; when the cold makes you need other people on a mortal level, absence becomes a terror realized. (Isn't it curious how place shapes us?) I am a contemporary artist whose practice includes video, photography, sound, installation, performance, and text. I studied art in Canada and Germany, and have taught media art at Universities for the past 20 years. In 2017, I represented Canada at the Glenfiddich Artist Residency in Dufftown.

I made two simultaneous field recordings: one of the ambient soundscape and one from a custom 4-oscillator squarewave synthesizer that translates light to pitch. Rather than showing the eclipse, this piece documents the ecological, social, and atmospheric effects of the environment during the darkness of total eclipse. Learning that some Indigenous communities, including the Diné, traditionally observe eclipses through quiet reverence, affirmed the choice to focus on presence rather than spectacle. This iteration honors the natural timeline of the event, preserving the sonic unfolding: eerie quiet, surging animal response, surreal synchronicity. Artist bio: AC Diamond is a sound and media artist working across live performance, creative technology, and archives. Their work takes place in galleries, theaters, DIY venues, unconventional venues, and public spaces. Active since 2009, AC holds an MFA in Electronic Music and Recording Media from Mills College and a BA from Bennington College, and currently serves as Adjunct Faculty in Music Technology at NYU Steinhardt. AC’s work has been supported by a NYFA/NYSCA Fellowship in Music/Sound (2022-23) and a Van Lier Fellowship at Roulette Intermedium (2020), as well as grants from NYSCA/Wave Farm, the Foundation for Contemporary Art, and Antisocial Music.

It was created for an installation with David Velez in Huddersfield. The sounds of the growing rhubarb are combined with generated sine waves and the ambient atmosphere of the shed where we recorded late at night. All the pitches are derived from the spectral content of the snapping sounds the plants make as they grow in darkness, searching for light. Artist bio: Duncan Chapman is a UK-based composer, sound artist and producer working across electronic music, installation, performance and community-led practice. Duncan’s work explores listening, place and atmosphere, often combining field recordings, live electronics and acoustic sound in site-specific contexts. He creates immersive environments for galleries, festivals and public spaces, alongside collaborative projects with musicians, artists and local communities. Duncan’s practice is rooted in careful attention to space, texture and audience experience, with a strong focus on accessibility and participation. His work has been presented internationally and across the UK, including major festivals, arts centres and public realm settings.

The tapes carry eulogies, hospital relay communications, biometric signals, retirement celebrations, and recordings by residents in long-term care. Played through tactile, manually controlled tape devices, the recordings rarely remain stable. Sounds drift, falter, and fragment as electronics and voice respond in real time. Revisiting material first explored over two decades ago, the work reflects on care, distance, and vulnerability. Artist bio: Paul Catanese is a hybrid media artist whose work spans installation, performance, sound, experimental opera, projection, net.art, and printmaking. While long working with modular synthesis as a studio tool, his recent performance practice extends these processes into live contexts with modular systems, tape-based media, and voice. His work has been exhibited at institutions including the Whitney Museum of American Art, Chicago Cultural Center, New Museum of Contemporary Art, Ann Arbor Film Festival, and the International Symposium on Electronic Art.

The work provides a listener with an experience of intimacy and fosters closeness between the sounding and the consumer. Motivation for the choice of a project is a long time interest in exploring the genre of audio play. Moreover, this project becomes a next step in a personal ongoing research on extended vocal practices and human voice as an instrument. The work on this project includes research on the genre specifications of an audio play, areas for experimentation and approach to script writing; deepening knowledge on vocal exploration methods; developing approaches and techniques that provide intimate experience through sound; defining overall sound aesthetics. Artist bio: I come from a background in academic painting and contemporary fine art, having originally worked in painting, sculpture, and moving image media. My creative journey has taken me through six universities, ultimately leading me to discover my passion for the intersection of visual and sonic art and, ultimately, to sound art. So far i've been working with sound on its own, exploring its agency, as well as body+sound explorations.

(The book is incredible, definitely in my top 3 of the year :D) I think that when a complex sentence is deconstructed into simpler fragments, each fragment reveals its own intensified meaning, which in turn amplifies the meaning of the original, more complicated sentence. I try to make the reading sentence experience as a sonic looping and floating adventure, so you can feel a bit of what the character experienced in the book, even you haven’t read it yet. So… what is silence?  And what is the silence within yourself? Yuxin Hu is a sound artist based in the Netherlands. or you can call her a noiser. She creates experimental music, sound installations, and free improvisation, or interdisciplinary artwork based on an acoustic-electronic approach. "Acoustic" means all the sound sources are from realism, while "Electronic" lets it lean a bit to surrealism. Currently, she is a music master in Sound of Innovation, ArtEZ University of Arts. She is doing research on making free improv based on daily life objects such as Bluetooth mouses, cups, shelves, etc., aimed at speaking for daily life objects and freeing them from their default functions. https://www.instagram.com/frozen1900_/ yuxinhu.com 2) Valentin Sismann – Erosia Beneath the cliffs, the sea crackles. Secret life of the waves, of the wind, without anyone, existing. Outside, a shitstorm of machinery and bodies. Consuming. A pseudo-embodiment of the living. Two impressions of the same show. Erosion, scum. Autophagy is fantastic. Especially in music: l'art se nique. Valentin Sismann (born in 2002 in France) develops a practice that combines acousmatic composition and video. He explores the idea of expanded music, where sound and visuals are expressed in ways that are either poetic, narrative, or conceptual. His works focus on our relationship with technology, particularly recording media, which he questions and manipulates within critical or imaginary spaces. valentinsismann.com 3) Dan Antoniu - Electric Creek Electric Creek is a work that is made from a recording of frogs in Madison SD. The recording is augmented slowly distorting the recording’s perceived reality through layering screams and multiphonics. Audio processing and video shaking were used to distort the material further. Drawing on the intensity of sound and his Romanian heritage Dan Antoniu creates visceral sonic experiences. Utilizing gestures, transformations, and electronics Antoniu’s work serves as a ritual to create new perceptual environments for the audience and performers to inhabit. https://www.youtube.com/@danantoniumaestrodistortion https://danantoniu22.wixsite.com/my-site-3/recent-works https://www.instagram.com/maestro_distortion/ https://www.facebook.com/dan.antoniu Radiophrenia Shorts 3B Radiophrenia Shorts 3B 7 September 2026 8:30 am - 9:00 am 1 Pepijn Gyssels - Swedish Ecstasy (18:08) 2 Stephen Bradley - Slow Thaw (10:00) 3 Water Feature - Various Birds - 04 miniature quail (1:07) 1) Pepijn Gyssels - Swedish Ecstasy This is an existing piece PiP made for an exhibition in Bozar (Brussels). The expo brought together a number of figureheads from the Swedish art scene, whose work was embedded in mysticism and esoteric speculation. The sound piece aimed to create an optional, extra layer to the visitors' experience. This soundscape lets you wander through compelling textures and atmospheres, rather than clarity. A voice gently interrupts this dream state from time to time, pivoting into unknown poetic territory. PiP is short for Pepijn Gyssels. He is a field recordist, music producer and DJ, based in Brussels. His main occupation is the act of listening. He aims to create moments and focus on the sounds that rave within them. He travels with with microphones and harvests the sounds he encounters. In this piece you can hear thunder in Portugal, but also a street in Venice and some distant cries of prisoners. Tijn Driessen created additional synthetised sounds and his sister, Maud Gyssels, wrote the words, brought to life by the voice of Gemma Allen. http://www.pepijngyssels.com https://www.instagram.com/pip_sound/ https://zitstill.bandcamp.com 2) Stephen Bradley - Slow Thaw "Slow Thaw" is a radio sound artwork composed from the perspective of a glacier slowly melting. Its voice is formed through deep resonant drones, subtle cracks, and the murmur of meltwater, unfolding at an increasing pace. Against this interior landscape, the distant rumble and grind of human consumption presses onwards—growing louder as the ice thins and the oceans and seas rise. The composition contrasts geological time with ecological urgency, tracing transformation rather than spectacle. As the glacier dissolves into the ocean, its mass becomes absent, and rising seas carry forward the memory of what once stood solid and still. Stephen Bradley is an interdisciplinary artist whose practice maps and traces our relationship to place through sound, photography and recorded stories juxtaposed with artifacts discarded or lost in the landscape. Bradley has received awards from the National Endowment for the Arts; Sonic Circuits VII: Walker Art Center; Museum of Contemporary Art Kiasma, Helsinki; Bienal de Arte Contemporaneo de Sevilla, Spain; and Hull Time-Based Arts, UK; Sandao Gallery, Xiamen University and VArts Center, Shanghai, China; radioCona FM, Ljublijana, Solvenia; WaveFarm, and Ricco Maresca Gallery, NYC. Bradley is a faculty emeritus from UMBC, visual arts, Baltimore, MD and lives in Raleigh, NC- USA. https://urbantells.net/ 3) Water Feature - Various Birds - 04 miniature quail A collection of somewhat convincing birdsong and foley created entirely on a small battery-powered drum machine. Many imaginary and fanciful 'species' including the Pond Bather, Golden Nuthatch and Brown Yipper are featured. A long-form sound collage of many species is the central work, and 'close-ups' are also included. In one sense the project is a sincere tribute to bird identification records and tapes one would find in garden centres in the 90s, of which the artists have a large collection. In another sense it is an uncanny objection to a contemporary relationship with nature that romanticises and objectifies it from a safe distance. The sounds have been sampled in records by other artists, used in an extended arrangement for an installation in the Jardin Des Plantes in Paris, presented with narration by a supposed ornithologist, and are played constantly via an internet radio station. Water Feature is a 'collage band' formed of several contributors, creating utopian, absurd and low-fidelity environmental(ist) music. There is a strong reactionary and naive spirit to the project which aims to replace lifeless, boring, synthetic ambient music with an alternative chaotic, colourful and organic musique concrète. Recording and composition revolves around improvisation with cheap gear, tape-splicing and other uncivilised practices and accidents. 3 records (including Various Birds) have been released through the DIY Morsels label/collective. https://variousbirds.net https://morsels.website https://www.instagram.com/morsels.website/ Anne Lepère - Nuages (Clouds) Anne Lepère - Nuages (Clouds) 7 September 2026 9:00 am - 10:00 am Clouds is a sound fiction unfolding between sky and earth. Imaginary beings and animals guide our steps through a sky in motion. Each layer has its own distinct character: Cumulus, Stratus, and Cirrus invite us to navigate their unique densities, colors, and musicalities. The air—sometimes warm, sometimes cold—lifts us to shifting heights, revealing cloud-poems, clusters of droplets with floating phrasing. Moods are like a changeable sky. No one lives under a perfectly uniform sky, nor one that is entirely grey or blue; it reminds us of impermanence. And you—what color is your sky today? Artist bio: Anne Lepère is a sound artist, composer, and radio producer whose work explores the poetry of everyday life between urban and rural spaces. Trained in Brussels hubs such as ACSR and at Royaumont, she has been creating radiophonic pieces, music, and sound design for theatre, dance, performance, and film since 2013. A recipient of several awards, she authored Autopoïèse (2019) and Area (2022), innovative works blending documentary, poetry, and explorations of time. In 2025, she completes Nuages, a new long-form radiophonic piece produced by Babelfish, ACSR and Semi-Silent, combining the sonic score of clouds with collective writing.

Each episode was haphazardly constructed from a ramshackle archive of disintegrating open reel tapes bought from a car boot sale in Derby. This lost episode of The Derby Tape Recording Club came about when a whole new batch of tape recordings were discovered 10 years ago. Martin Stanway, a former member of the club and son of Alf Stanway, the club chairman sent a selection of these recordings that were featured on local station Radio Derby over the course of a week. When I heard about this I of course got in touch and struck up a correspondence. Martin has since generously shared with me all of the recordings he had digitised along with photographs and other ephemera. Martin and his family emigrated to Australia in 1969 leaving their friends in the club behind but they still kept in touch through taped messages, some of which are included in this piece. Produced by Mark Vernon. Biography: Mark Vernon is a Glasgow based artist who explores notions of audio archaeology, magnetic memory and nostalgia through his sound and radio works. At the core of his practice lies a fascination with the intimacy of the radio voice, environmental sound and the re-appropriation of found recordings. http://meagreresource.com Sisters Akousmatica - WHIPS OF SORROW Sisters Akousmatica - WHIPS OF SORROW 7 September 2026 11:00 am - 11:30 am "Whips of sorrow" is an improvisation with electromagnetic frequencies on stolen land, lutruwita, about female convicts archival data.

Cuts into the course of the sound destroy the typical structure, isolate single phases and focus on the melodies of Toppling and Tumbling. Different Shapes of the tops as well as different materials of the underground ( base drum, paper, metal, fabric, stone) provide the numerous variations of the sound. Biography Antje Vowinckel is a Berlin based composer, adio artist and musician. Her works can be heard on radio stations such as Deutschlandfunk, SWR, WDR, HR, BR; at festivals such as Donaueschinger Musiktage, Ruhtrienale, Eclat-Festival Stuttgart or at concert venues such as ZKM Karlsruhe, Issue-Project Room New York, Sophiensäle Berlin. For her compositions with sound bites she developed the methodes of Automatic Speaking and Dialect-Karaoke. Furthermore, she creates installations and performances in public spaces, which are aimed at a random and wider audience. The main focus of her work is in Germany, but her pieces are also presented internationally, e.g. her piece Call me Yesterday was broadcast and presented in 18 countries. Broadcasts, performances and competition participations in: France, Switzerland,Austria, Italy, Croatia, Spain, Sweden, Finland, Estonia, Czech Republic, Poland, Bulgaria, Portugal, USA, Canada, Australia. In addition, she occasionally works as a juror (Berlin Senate, HBK Braunschweig, inm-Berlin), curator, essayist and lecturer, among others at UDK Berlin, HFG Karlsruhe. She has received numerous international awards for her work, including the Prix Europa and the Karl Sczuka Prize (see below). https://antjevowinckel.de/en 2) Hildegard Westerkamp - Kits Beach Soundwalk (1989) In the late seventies I produced and hosted a radio program on Vancouver Co-operative Radio called “Soundwalking”, in which I took the listener to different locations in and around the city and explored them acoustically. “Kits Beach Soundwalk” is a compositional extension of this original idea. Kitsilano Beach — colloquially called “Kits Beach” and originally named after the Squamish First Nation chief X̱ats’alanexw (Khahtsahlano, 1877-1971) — is located in the heart of Vancouver. In the summer it is one of the most crowded beaches in Vancouver, packed full with sunbathers. At the time the piece was created, in the late 80s, it was also filled with music coming from many “ghetto blasters”, indeed light years away from the silence experienced here not so long ago by its indigenous inhabitants. The original recording on which this piece is based was made on a calm winter morning, when the quiet lapping of the water and the tiny sounds of barnacles feeding were audible before an acoustic backdrop of the throbbing city. In this soundwalk composition we leave the city behind eventually and explore instead the tiny acoustic realm of barnacles, the world of high frequencies, inner space and dreams. 3) Ernests Vilsons & Ada Ruszkiewicz - swing of the day - Bastejkalns This "catalogue of noisy swing recordings" is an expanding catalogue of recordings that capture noisy swings co-created with Ada Ruszkiewicz. The catalogue is made up of several dozen sound recordings featuring squeaky, creaking, screeching or otherwise noisy swing sets. The reasons for swing noise are various – loose connections or fasteners, aging of the materials used in the construction of the swing, weather conditions affecting them, as well as the load and overload to which the swing is subjected. Although most of the recordings feature swings that only minimally differ in terms of mechanics, construction and materials used, their noise is never identical, providing a sound testimony to the environment in which the swing is placed. Swinging, photos – Ada Ruszkiewicz; Idea, recording, editing and mixing – Ernests Vilsons. Artist bio: Ernests Vilsons is a Latvian composer living in Rīga. He writes music for acoustic instruments and electronic means, creates sound installations and performances, and collects field recordings. He is interested in harmony, time, silence, chance, representation and transcription. E. Vilsons studied at the Institute of Sonology at the Royal Conservatoire in The Hague. His master's research project “Well-Structured Vocalizations: An Attempt To Imitate Birdsong” was awarded the Konrad Boehmer Foundation Prize in 2020.

When Jean-Luc Nancy says that ’[t]ouch belongs to every part of arts because touch belongs to every part of senses,’[1] he is arguing not only for touch’s primacy in every sense, but for the reason for its primacy in senses; being a movement in and of itself (‘when the movement stops, touch stops’), touch is the process, performance in other words, of every sense. As such, the being and the becoming of touch are inevitably fused. Every sense, including listening which is hearing’s becoming, performs touch as it creates and activates the ontologies of every sense. But how exactly does touch work here in listening? How does it move or perform? What does it produce and what are the consequences for listening? What do we ever get to know things that we listen to? Do we ever get to know things by listening? With (de)touch, I would like to tackle these questions, first by rendering sonic touch-images, if you will, of (intuitively speaking) and about (rationally or inferentially speaking) listening-with. Here the ontologies of listening-with are taking cues from Nancy’s being-with, which he develops from Heidegger’s Dasein whose existential condition is being-with others [2], as well as his analysis of the very act of listening [3]. Compositionally speaking, these are to be explored through creating various kinds of listening-with-others and observing the gaps and spaces, and the push-pull forces that these will engender. Secondly, with (de)touch, I aim to emphasise that listening as touch acts on the in-between space of limit and possibility[4], a distance or proximity that Nancy said touch needs to exist, and that it is precisely in this way listening touches—at the limit or on the surface of—what we can posit as knowing. Accordingly, equal attention is paid to the negative movement of listening as touch (hence the prefix, de-). (de)touch explores listening as touch and (de)touch in the composition with various excerpts from the field recording that I have done for Futures of Listening: Water Knowledge from Two Cities. Here, the structure has a loose two part-form. I hope that this two-part structure will give much emphasis on the process and effect of each movement of listening: touch and de-touch.

Gradually, the process shifted from recording to construction, and the field recordings became a point of departure rather than material presented directly. A single oscillator was treated and layered to unfurl its tone into a broader sonic environment, sketching over the sounds of the island. The synthetic tracing eventually displaced the field recordings, leaving behind a sound world as a memory of place.

The work deploys diverse vocal interpretations (reverse-processed, total vocal occlusion, humming, whistling, laptop-driven "stop-and-go") coupled with object rhythmics and field recordings (e.g. urban scaffold building, an AI-generated voice of an elderly Japanese man from metal ashtray beating under the reverberating, historical Ponte Balbis, Turin - signalling fatigue/effort-, kitchen wooden spoon rhythmics, cracking ancient church wooden benches/floors) to try and ‘build’ Rilke’s necessary tree/wood(s) in the ear of mankind out of our unintelligible times. The narrative ends with a (self-ironic) live applause over the non-ironical closure ‘And “The rest is silence". Hamlet’ (in Italian). Prepared for Radiophrenia’s 2026 Giovanna Turrini – BRIDGES – she/her, M.A.: Venetian vocal inter-media composer and sound researcher, registered Music Composer at SIAE (Italian PRS) since 2004. With a solid academic backup (Venice, Seattle, Düsseldorf) and proven experience managing complex projects (budgets up to €20k), her work focuses on acoustic authenticity through a three-octave vocal range, original hydrographic datasets, own field recordings, and A.I. critical experiments (no use of audio libraries/presets/plugins). Her productions include works featured by Goethe-Institut Turin, Jewish Community of Turin/Regione Piemonte, Poetry Biennale Alessandria, and Festival CHIGIANAradioarte.it 2025. In 2026, she is scheduled for a monographic series (four "studiezondag") on radioarte.it.

The poem thinks about how a person's different selves commune across time, and how the living and the dead commune also. The poem was first published in Emily Berry's collection Stranger, Baby. Sound design and composition by Owen Duff. Emily Berry is a poet with three books of poems published by Faber & Faber. She scripted and presented the BBC radio programmes My Sylvia Plath (2023), Dreaming of Connie Converse (2024) and The Little Box Which Contains the World (2026), and is editor-in-chief of the bedtime stories app Sleep Worlds. Owen Duff is a queer singer-songwriter, composer and sound artist. He has recorded five EPs and five albums, and his songs have been aired on BBC Radio 6, BBC Radio 3 and BBC Radio London. His sound work has been Highly Commended in the Sound of the Year. https://owenduff.co.uk/ https://www.emilyberry.co.uk/ 4) Dibakar Saha - Drowning to Stay Afloat Underwater recordings form the dominant sonic field in Drowning to Stay Afloat. The aquatic space acts as both material and metaphor. Sounds move slowly, blurred and heavy, as if heard from beneath the surface of the present. Within this imagined underwater space are fragments of contemporary human life. When something sinks underwater, it softens, breaks apart, and loses its sharp edges. The embedded sounds are processed to evoke this disintegration. Almost washed out, but something remains. Distorted contours that resist disappearance. With this piece, I try to express what it feels like to live in an era defined by an abundance of information, and reaction, and a scarcity of meaning and empathy. Listening becomes similar to drowning. Everything surrounds you, yet nothing is fully grasped. Dibakar Saha is a Kolkata, India based sound artist, and a graduate of the Satyajit Ray Film and Television Institute. His practice is rooted in sound art, installation, immersive audio, and field recording, with a focus on experimental and spatial forms. He has collaborated on VR works, multichannel films, and interactive web installations presented at IDFA, Sheffield DocFest, Berlin Biennale and Serendipity Art Festival. A Fellow of the 2022 BIFF Asian Film Academy in Busan, his work in films has been shown at national and international platforms. http://www.dibakarsaha.com @theblueorangutang @silenceplease.wav Radiophrenia Shorts 19B Radiophrenia Shorts 19B 7 September 2026 1:30 pm - 2:00 pm 1 Bláithín Mac Donnell - The road cuts through (8:02) 2 Chatori Shimizu – Shinkaigyo (5:12) 3 Jo Kennedy - Holding the Rain (11:20) 4 Myriam Bessette - Sans alerte (3:46) 1) Bláithín Mac Donnell - The road cuts through The road cuts through is a performative monologue layering fact, fiction and anecdote. Soil is excavated, roads are constructed and lakes flood as stories entangled in the land are unearthed. Bláithín Mac Donnell is an Irish artist who explores how we share and retell stories through performance, text, collage and sculpture. Concerned with the entanglement between rural and digital infrastructures, her work seeks to attend to a sense of place by meshing the past, present and future. Currently a PhD researcher at NCAD, Dublin her practice based research explores liveness in performance through voice and narrative. Bláithín holds an MA Photography from the Royal College of Art, London, 2015 and a BA Fine Art from Goldsmiths, London, 2012. http://www.blaithinmacdonnell@gmail.com @blaithinmacdonnell 2) Chatori Shimizu – Shinkaigyo "Shinkaigyo", which is translated into "deep sea fish", was written in fascination of the ocean. I was always intrigued, and at times terrified, by the sea, which is still largely untouched and deeply mysterious to humanity. The audio and its excerpts were used as the soundtrack in "Nihonkai" (2014), installation by artist Ayaka Miyauchi, and for the short Korean film "Artists are Always Hungry" (2014). In the same year, it was selected for the 60x60 WaveFarm Mix International Open Call, broadcast on WaveFarm 90.7FM, distributed as part of the Wave Farm Dispatch Series, and featured in a series of live listening events. In 2019, Shinkaigyo was introduced by Ars Electronica FORUM WALLIS 2019 as “Highly Commended”. Chatori Shimizu (b. 1990) is a composer and sound artist, focusing on site-specific music, kinetically enhanced music, and concert music. He often plays with the themes of liberating time and space, often incorporating choreography, programming, mechanical enhancements, and installation design in his creations. He has degrees from Kunitachi College of Music, Columbia University, and Hochschule für Musik Carl Maria von Weber. https://www.instagram.com/chabobobobobo/ https://www.youtube.com/@chabobobobobo 3) Jo Kennedy - Holding the Rain Holding the Rain is a listen to blanket bogs and two experts working to protect and restore them. We hear both from Tia Crouch - the National Trust's peat ecologist, and Gill Wrigley - Sphagnum Project Officer at Calderdale Council, West Yorkshire. A lot of our UK blanket bogs are badly degraded (we hear why) but work is going on in our uplands to re-wet them and restore them ecologically. A healthy blanket bog is not only alive with life but can store vast amounts of carbon, alleviate flood risk, prevent the spread of moorland fire, and help purify drinking water! Holding the Rain was originally part of an installation with sculptor Sally Barker, shown at the Peat Appreciation Society's exhibition at Gibson Mill, Hardcastle Crags, West Yorkshire in Spring 2026. It was designed for listening to on headphones, not room speakers. Jo Kennedy is a Todmorden – based sound artist who uses field recordings, found sounds, spoken word and music to create immersive audio experiences, whether these be fixed pieces, soundwalks or installations. Her creative practice often engages explicitly with ecological issues, responding to questions about our relationship with the living world. She co-produces Nature Tripping podcast and is also a Director at Yorkshire Sound Women Network (YSWN), a CIC working to address gender imbalance across the audio industry. http://www.jokennedysound.com 4) Myriam Bessette - Sans alerte In my neighborhood, I adopt wandering as a method for capturing and shaping unstable sonic material in real time. I recombine this fragile matter through attentive listening, allowing a form of sonic writing to emerge — shaped by tension, accident, and micro-events. Sans alerte (No Omen) traces the subtle, latent ruptures embedded in everyday experience. Holding a bachelor's degree from the School of Visual and Media Arts at UQAM, Myriam Bessette explores drawing and sound sampling, which she transforms and animates using technological tools. Her sound installation works have been presented in Canada and in many European cities, including Istanbul, Leipzig, Ghent, Marseille, Stuttgart, Trieste, Paris, Barcelona, and Brussels. Additionally, her animated works have been showcased at numerous festivals, including Sónar (Barcelona), New Zealand International Film Festival (Auckland), European Media Art Festival (Osnabrück), and Elektra (Montreal). Myriam Bessette lives and works in Montréal. http://myriam-bessette.com Lost in Transmission 1 - Nichola Scrutton Lost in Transmission 1 - Nichola Scrutton 7 September 2026 2:00 pm - 2:30 pm Northfield Lenox - Uncleared Stairs Northfield Lenox - Uncleared Stairs 7 September 2026 2:30 pm - 3:00 pm “Uncleared Stairs” is a soundscape that incorporates samples of newscasts related to the events of April and May of 1986. The news reports have had all identifying information and event details audibly removed, blurred or masked by the authorities so that only the framework of the story remains. The scape is divided into seven chapters that are each bracketed with a musical sounder and a message in morse code. The interstitial spaces remaining have been filled in with abstract debris from the explosion. Artist bio: Northfield Lenox is a one person computer production music project from Manitoba Canada. Only virtual instruments are used for original material, which is then combined with samples from media and film archives, radio, and other field & audio recordings. (Also, occasionally collaborating with other humans.)

An obvious question to ask then is: What is our relationship to the environment? And is the natural environment interesting enough to us – indeed, do we know enough about it - that we would want to protect and save it from further ravages? The sound environment has much to tell us - it simply ‘voices’ all activities - and if we dare to really listen, we may sense the depth of the environmental trouble the world is facing. During the past year I decided to re-examine the many sound recordings I have made since approximately 1977/78, when I got my chops in field recording while producing and broadcasting my radio program Soundwalking on Vancouver Co-operative Radio. Without knowing it then, it formed the base of my recording approach for many years to come. The idea of including my voice while recording the environment was there from the start and was based in the desire to acknowledge my recording presence to the radio listener. In other words, in speaking together – acoustic environment and voice – a relationship between soundscape and human vocal expression was revealed. Upon the kind invitation from the BEAST FEaST 2021 to create a new sound piece, I decided to use the opportunity to reflect back on my more than 40 years of sound recording and composing with environmental sound. I have brought together many of my recordings and compositional approaches in a fluid stream of listening while also softly speaking my mind about issues of soundscape ecology. The festival’s theme is “Recalibration”. The Soundscape Speaks is an invitation to open yourselves to the complexities of listening itself and the possibilities it may offer to recalibrating your own relationship to the environment. Composition and Spoken Voice by Hildegard Westerkamp Premiere: April 24, 2021, the BEAST FEaST 2021, at the University of Birmingham, UK Biography: Hildegard Westerkamp (1946 in Osnabrück, Germany) is a sound artist, sound researcher, composer of electroacoustic music, sound ecologist, flutist, pianist, and author. Her works, which have been performed worldwide, chiefly focus on aspects of the acoustic environment. Westerkamp moved to Canada in 1968, studied music at the University of British Columbia and joined the World Soundscape Project at Simon Fraser University to explore soundscapes under the direction of R. Murray Schafer. She later taught courses in acoustic communication at Simon Fraser University and has written extensively on soundscapes, acoustic ecology, and listening. She is a founding member of the World Forum for Acoustic Ecology and lives in Vancouver. http://www.hildegardwesterkamp.ca Diana Duta - mess-punkt Diana Duta - mess-punkt 7 September 2026 3:40 pm - 4:00 pm 'The wind has stopped. Time has stretched. What do you see? Water. Only water.' The middle is an abstraction. Here, time holds different meanings for different species. How does a rock experience the slow passage of years? This sound piece was recorded in one continuous take, with all the elements flowing together at once, spontaneously intersecting voices and the many sonic streams, perhaps not unlike the erosional forces that give shape to landforms. Lorelei, the steep slate rock located in the Middle Rhine Valley appears like an ear of stone, picking up reflections carried by storm and wind. A sea-singer, merrow or mélusine, wandering about the shore. Not only a place, but a presence rising above the many bodies of water, contained both around and within us. For at the smallest scale of reality, time vanishes; there is no difference between past and future. Artist bio: Diana Duta is a Brussels-based artist working with sound in hypnotic ways, with a background in art and socio-cultural linguistics. She investigates inhabiting different subjectivities beyond brain-created narrative fictions. How can sound ecology reconfigure identity—who we are relationally? Guided by biosemiotics, cognitive science, poetry and embodied voice practices, her work finds common ground with other sentient life forms around us. She makes works for radio, installations and experimental music as DIAN and is half of t.r.a.n.c.e. community hypnosis project. In 2019, she founded Jambes, a recording studio commissioning new work by artists experimenting with sound and voice.

Will things escape first, or will we? The pigeons, the buildings, or the esoteric teenagers who contact the sun? Lautaro Nuñez Müller a.k.a Lata (Temperley, Argentina) is an artist who works with sound using an approach closely linked to the technique of sound collage. He holds a degree in Multimedia Arts from the National University of the Arts. His latest works are the exhibition "Geología de una nube", the mixtapes Omega I, II, and III, and the album Corso Hipno, released by the Buenos Aires-based label Isla Visión. Since 2024, he has published the zine "El Susurrerío" in which he interviews diverse Argentine artists whose work incorporates sound. https://lata.bandcamp.com/ - https://www.instagram.com/latanun 2) Józio - I have made a consensus on the radio The foundation of "Consensus etc." is a collage of miscellaneous field recordings and shortwave radio snippets gathered throughout my travels when I was meeting friends in places that are old but seem new and there's something very scary about that. In the composition process, originally for Warsaw's first 8-channel speaker system, I added numerous layers of prepared guitar, circuit-bent electronics, and no-input mixer, tuned to match chosen resonances within the original recordings. These instruments together form the buzzing drone heard in the second part of the piece. Layers of electric guitar ultimately come together in a spectral harmony which is slightly higher than the ambient one at the start (50Hz)—some distance seems to have been conquered and a consensus has been reached. Józio Urbański is an emerging musician and sound artist whose work has taken the form of performance, installation, and composition. He holds a deep curiosity for the locality of sound and our varied experience of time within it, which has led him to explore areas such as free improvisation, deep listening, synthesis, feedback, tape loops, drones, coding, transducers, just intonation, spectralism, radio, electroacoustics, and field recordings—using the latter as both research and as cut-up material. His most recent projects seek, in different ways, to extract harmony from improbable sound sources within his local environment. joziourbanski.com/portfolio.pdf 3) Alessia Damiani – Evaporation The piece explores evaporation as a metaphor for inner human transformation: a slow, almost invisible process in which what once felt solid gradually shifts into another state. Meditation functions as the driving force behind this transition, creating a space of deep listening and suspension where change can occur. Through meditative attention, the self begins to loosen its boundaries, mirroring water as it lightens and disperses into air. Sound traces this journey, moving from dense, grounded textures toward fragmentation and openness. Evaporation becomes an intimate act of release and renewal, revealing transformation not as rupture, but as a quiet, continuous unfolding of awareness. Alessia Damiani is a composer, performer, and multimedia artist active internationally in Italy, the UK, the USA, Mexico, Spain, and Germany. Her works have been presented at festivals including the New York City Electroacoustic Music Festival (NYCEMF), MUSLAB International Electroacoustic Music Exhibition (Mexico), and Mediagrammi (Berlin). Her M-Flute A/V Performance was selected for several European festivals. In 2019, she created sound design for an interactive exhibition by photographer Riccardo Truffarelli. She has taught sound design, electroacoustic composition, and musical computing at major Italian academies and conservatories. Her solo practice explores repetition, the aesthetics of error, and extemporary sound.The piece explores http://www.alessiadamiani.it 4) Anna Stereopoulou – Akroproron Akroproron narrates the beginning of the sailing and the conditions onboard, as well as a calling coming from the ship's Figurehead (Greek: 'Akroproron'), where an imaginary battle is given between the Sea and other elements. It consists of Field Recordings, analogue Synthesizer and Voice, spreading "sals" on a manic unification of "ἅλς–háls–als–sal", with a sound-onomato-poetic license. The work is part of ALS music album (Anna Stereopoulou, 2026) and the same-titled sound installation (work-in-progress), a study on the sound of-at-around the Sea and Salt (Live Premiere: Scientific Conference "Salt Flats and Cultural Tourism: Municipalities of 'Sacred Town of Messolonghi' & Lesvos island", University of West Attica, 2023). It is getting developed through the recording and expression of the cultural value of the eco-system and surrounding space of the salt-flats and wetlands, commenting on the Acoustic Ecology and Psychogeography of each location, through time. Composer, pianist and researcher Anna Stereopoulou specialises in the Music Composition for Film & TV. She has presented her art worldwide, in Cultural centres and Archaeological-sites, and has worked as an Advisor-Programmer in Music & Film Festivals, as part of her activity in Culture, Education, Journalism and Tourism, and her Interdisciplinary Research. https://annastereoscopic.wordpress.com/ https://annastereo.bandcamp.com/ https://www.youtube.com/user/annastereo https://www.facebook.com/AnnaStereopoulou https://www.instagram.com/annastereoscopic/ 5) Jung HUO - Hot water Here is an amusing story about my stay at a friend’s place, where there was no hot water for the shower. My friend suggested that I heat water with a kettle. One day, due to the unsanitary condition of the apartment, it was announced that the entire building would be evacuated the following day. Moving constantly, staying at other people’s places… It was only when I burned myself with the hot water that I realized how absurd all of this was. Jung HUO (born in Hsinchu, Taiwan, 1997) is a Taiwanese artist currently based in Paris. Her work encompasses installation, sound, video, and performance. She focuses on daily and ritual gestures and actions, extracting small moments of discomfort and transforming them into a dislocation of tangible objects, capturing the poetic elements within their political significance. http://www.junghuo.com instagram : jung.huo Radiophrenia Shorts 50B Radiophrenia Shorts 50B 7 September 2026 4:30 pm - 5:00 pm 1 Kathryn Wardlaw - Feeling at Home (4:33) 2 ifuseekamy - Posthuman Desire (3:44) 3 The Given Ghost – Rings (4:38) 4 Craig Stewart Johnson - An Attempt at Documenting Exteriors (12:26) 5 Landon Caldwell - Memory Flows (1:54) 1) Kathryn Wardlaw - Feeling at Home This composition aims to push the recognisable sounds of life to a place where they are no longer recognisable. Focusing on the kitchen, which I feel is the heart of a home, I captured the sounds of action and life. Everyone can recognise the human voice or a kettle boiling, so my goal in this composition was to create an environment where the listener must question the sounds they are experiencing. I wanted the beginning of my composition to be confusing and to gradually clear up until the sounds become understandable and familiar. Having the human voice and laughter included in this composition was important to me as I believe these things are what make a place sound, and feel like home. Kathryn Wardlaw is an Edinburgh based Scottish sound artist and musician. In her work she captures the mundane and recognisable sounds of life and locations and aims to transform them. Her work consists of soundscapes, trying to capture the feeling of day-to-day life in varying locations, and acousmatic compositions that change the familiar into the strange. https://www.instagram.com/kathrynwardlaw_?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw== http://www.youtube.com/@kathrynwardlaw 2) ifuseekamy - Posthuman Desire Posthuman Desire brings earthly, soily, confusing desires to the forefront. In order to reconsider our relationships with the world around us we need to break free from our cagey, limiting, human-bodies. Inspired by Alison Sperling's "Weird Embodiment" (2020), Posthuman Desire calls us to dissolve our bodily boundaries and restrictive ways of thinking, leaving heterosexual and human-centric relationships behind in favour of alternative relationship dynamics and intimacies. It is a non-hierarchical, messy, muddy, swampy exchange which questions "western notions of the self and of subject-hood" (Sperling, 2020). ifuseekamy (b. 1999) is a transdisciplinary artist enchanted by that which lies below; looking to the earth for soily solutions. The foundations of their practice begin with radical empathy, as they are unafraid to question, poke and prod limiting beliefs inherited by various institutional structures. ifuseekamy’s work has been shown at: The Horse Hospital, Safehouse, Electro studios, Bauhaus Universitat Weimar, University of Mississippi and UCA Farnham. https://ifuseekamy-portfolio.tumblr.com/ https://www.instagram.com/_ifuseekamy__/ 3) The Given Ghost – Rings "Rings" is the 6th track from the album "Fluid Noumena". It is a sonic exploration of an inner image: Being, whether general or particular, can be seen as a series of concentric circles; they are shaped like ripples or, perhaps, the links of a golden chain. In a sense, these circles overlap, inter-penetrate one another, and radiate from centers of Being, which is everything seen and unseen. In an environmental sense, these rings are the links between all things, all beings, all forces, which are unified into a "field" of Being. From this, it is my sincerest hope as the artist that my attempt to capture this impression (albeit abstract) can be intuited also by the listener. The Given Ghost is an ambient, experimental, and hauntological project of Kansas City-based composer, sound artist, and multi-instrumentalist, M.A. Weidman. The project attempts to convey notions of metaphysics, memory, and phenomenology through the use of sampling, synthesizers, and field recordings https://thegivenghost.bandcamp.com/album/fluid-noumena https://www.instagram.com/the_given_ghost_music?igsh=MXNsemg5MWl4cmY1bw== 4) Craig Stewart Johnson - An Attempt at Documenting Exteriors In an homage to Georges Perec’s An Attempt at Exhausting a Place in Paris and Annie Erneaux’s Exteriors, this short sound piece documents the mundane sounds of the everyday. Using limited means – iPhone voice notes, pocket recorder, Dictaphone – this work materialises in periods of movement and stasis - travelling, waiting, traversing, reflecting. The sounds are embodied with my pre-occupation with the notion of the ‘in-between’, captured neither in the spaces of leisure or the spaces of work, but during those moments that occur in between these binaries. The fragments of sound assembled here have been recorded over the past three years while working on my PhD, a process which further blurred the distinction between my work and leisure time. Recorded in various space and places across England, Scotland, Italy and Portugal on trains, in cars, while sitting, walking and staying still. Craig Stewart Johnson is an interdisciplinary researcher and artist whose work revolves around an interest in DIY modes of cultural production. Artistic practice spans recording and performance, alongside collage, print and installation – all of which revolve around an interest in the aesthetics and infrastructures of DIY culture and are rooted in a desire to create a space for improvisation, experimentation and collaboration. Craig recently completed his PhD titled The No-Audience Underground: Navigating Degrees of Autonomy in a DIY, Experimental Music Scene. https://craigstewartjohnson.com 5) Landon Caldwell - Memory Flows Memory Flows is a study of memory, mythology, and regional identity through sound and words. Landon Caldwell is a multi-disciplinary artist and composer in Indianapolis. His work is primarily centered on sound experiences, exploring multi-channel installation, film & video, writing, improvisation, radio art, and more in a practice focused on themes of environment, family, and class. His work uses any tool at hand to explore the modern midwest psyche. http://www.landoncaldwell.com landoncaldwell.bandcamp.com IG: landonscaldwell Ali Robertson - The Wireless Dummy (live in the studio) Ali Robertson - The Wireless Dummy (live in the studio) 7 September 2026 5:00 pm - 5:30 pm The Giant Tank Institute For Low-Brow Avant-Thought’s resident organiser/improviser Ali Robertson is probably best known for courting public shame in the duo Usurper, with Malcy Duff, but now most frequently exercises his unfunny bone as one half of 'Off Brand, with Firas Khnaissr, and as one third of Black Affrontit, with Karen Constance & Dylan Nyoukis, while sporadically pleading for redemption via the altogether more wholesome Sonic Bothy Ensemble. In this semi-improvised in-studio performance, concerning long and short-term memory, disembodied voices, and the history of ventriloquism, Robertson will ponder his own personal experiences as a partially deaf artist living with ADHD and PTSD, and the ongoing, and frequently infuriating, experience of attempting to care for an ailing relative remotely. Serious themes, but delivered with humour and musicality of sorts. https://gianttankeh.tumblr.com https://gianttank.bandcamp.com https://duffandrobertson.bandcamp.com Buffer Zone Buffer Zone 7 September 2026 5:30 pm - 6:00 pm 1) Kassel Jaeger aka François J.

The album grew from a simple idea: what if dreams could become music? Instead of telling their dreams as stories, Hwati and Collino treated them as sound. They recorded, cut apart, and reassembled dream fragments using the cut-up technique, letting chance reveal unexpected rhythms, textures, and meanings. This particular track is inspired by Masimba Hwati's dream of a porcupine quill from his childhood home. Moving between memory and imagination, Porcupine Quill Dream invites listeners into a space where dreams are not explained, but heard. Antje Vowinckel - Sisyphon Antje Vowinckel - Sisyphon 7 September 2026 6:00 pm - 6:30 pm Composition with international call centre voices. Being stuck on hold, waiting to eventually speak with a representative, is an experience everyone knows—yet no one shares. You press your ear against the receiver and keep your mouth shut so as not to miss that crucial moment. We all hear and say the exact same things—much like at a concert, yet in total isolation. It’s time, to give it a public space. Antje Vowinckel has listened to many recorded messages before she was finally connected. The research for the project was kindly supported by Musikfonds, Germany. A Radiophrenia commission produced with the support of Creative Scotland. Vocal sounds: Antje Vowinckel, wind ensemble: “trigger” (Chris Heenan (ccl), Matthias Müller (tb), Nils Ostendorf (tp). A Radiophrenia commission produced with the support of Creative Scotland.

Grief-wild 2. By a whisker 3. On the dead bones Grief-wild In the week before a momentous war’s anniversary, a picture starkly intrudes. Narratives make us understand; photos haunt us. The repeated song is repurposed in an attempt to ground all that is thrust at us. It’s a mantra of hope in a world gone wild. Writing, vocals, composition: Joan Schuman First commissioned for the Electroacoustical Poetical Society, 2024. By a whisker According to C.G. Jung, dreams of car crashes warn us that we need to get better control of a situation. Beginning just after Trump’s election, figures causing near crashes began appearing with greater frequency in my dreamscape. While this could reflect an inner turmoil, it could also signal an accumulated collective unconsciousness around the egregious collapse of rules in the U.S. These dreams of near-misses scream and whisper. It has felt like a kind of bardo, akin to the dreamworld in its liminal state. Like death, we know it will happen. And we want to honor its transit. Writing, vocals, composition: Joan Schuman. First commissioned for the Electroacoustical Poetical Society, 2025. On the dead bones Synopsis of piece: History is not a mound of discrete moments of upheaval—the sudden upthrust of the ground we’re standing on, the catastrophe. History is often simply detritus: A stash of letters, a collection of war-time incidences, what’s left after the fires burn. History is liminal: it spirals into our present. In our current burning, imploding world, we converge our stories, unfolding quickly or gradually, sometimes unvoiced. A witness. A languid history is indolent, lethargic, fatigue-laden. Writing, vocals, composition: Joan Schuman. First commissioned for the Electroacoustical Poetical Society, 2025. Artist bio: I make radio art; organize and present other sound artists on various platforms; mentor radio art archivists; and teach online (sound culture and production courses through The New School). I am mesmerized by sounds along the California West Coast, where I live and return to from other geographies.

It explores the idea of walking and not finding a bog and otherwise walking and finding too much bog. The changes in the landscape, environment, flora and fauna that we are removed from until we try to seek it out. It explores the idea of preservation and submission to something bigger than us and something which we cannot change. it is also fragmented, sometimes sinister, silly, lighthearted and deeply serious. Artist bios: Hanny is a primarily visual artist who is interested in moss, lichens, experimental archaeology, patterns and repetition of organic forms. she does not really know how sound works but she likes to play. Andy is a DJ, radio enthusiast and musician who first had headphones put over his ears around the age of two and has never stopped listening to everything and everyone since then.

My mother was an immigrant. Throughout human history, migration has been a defining and constant force. From the earliest ancestors who ventured out of Africa to modern immigrants crossing borders today, humans have always been on the move. These journeys were driven by many motivations: the search for food and resources, the desire to explore unknown lands, the need to escape conflict or persecution, and sometimes simply the curiosity to experience something new. This instinct to move, adapt, and seek opportunity is deeply ingrained in human nature. By examining immigrants and our ancestors together, we can better understand how movement has shaped cultures, societies, and identities across generations and how migration continues to influence the world we live in today. This experimental abstract soundscape is made for radio using only voices of immigrants - both from the past and the present. Artist bio: Jimmy Peggie is a Scottish-Estonian sound and multimedia artist based in Phoenix, Arizona. His artistic work is focused on natural and urban phenomena with an appreciation that all things are in a state of flux - ever changing, imperfect and incomplete - using this to help identify a sense of our place within the transient nature of all things. His sound art work has been included at many art spaces and events internationally. He currently composes hour long, monthly, sound art radio shows in France, Poland and South America.

According to the artist, a memory of the now-famous crime thriller “The Third Man” played a certain role in the concept for this sound sculpture: for the sculpture was—and ultimately remains—a magnificent instrument for exploring and probing the acoustic space of Vienna’s underground canal system. Microphones placed at carefully selected locations captured the sound of flowing water as well as the resonance of the vast space. In addition, Fontana installed a kind of sound machine that projected tones into the space at regular intervals to generate echoes. Microphones installed at various points along the tunnel recorded the acoustic delays resulting from the echoes. These sounds were broadcast live to the RadioKulturhaus, where they could be heard at various locations (the main entrance and in Studio 2). The acoustics of the canal system’s spatial branches, as well as the echo-triggering “sound explosions,” unfold their eerie yet cozy effect not only on site but also in the radio studio. https://www.kunstradio.at/1998A/5_3_98.html Caroline Preziosi - PNEUMATICS Caroline Preziosi - PNEUMATICS 7 September 2026 8:30 pm - 9:00 pm The word “pneumatics” is defined as (1) containing or operated by air under pressure; moved or played by means of air; (2) of or relating to the spirit, or souls; and (3) carrying air (the cavities in the bones of birds). In radio propagation, the “grey line” is the shifting atmospheric boundary or twilight zone between day and night within which radio waves’ transit between a transmitter and receiver is very efficient and offers superior long-distance communication. This work is comprised of a text composition scored for radio, grey line and field recordings, and long-distance listening. The work explores poetics of radio space, grief and relationships with the unknown, and a doubled space of absence. Artist bio: CAROLINE PREZIOSI is an artist, poet, and researcher.

Julio César Palacio - What about China? 7 September 2026 9:00 pm - 10:00 pm This piece is made with field recordings in one of the most incredible places I have ever visited and listen to. The province of Guizhou in southern China, in its beautiful rural villages, where various ancient dialects are spoken, such as KAM, which can be heard in the recordings. These are places that change your life because they remind you of the love for the land and the harmony between humans and nature. In the recordings, you can hear the toads and frogs in the rice fields, the cicadas, all singing at tremendous volume in the vastness of those mountain valleys, the weavers at their beautiful traditional looms, villagers singing together, parties, laughter... For me, this is perhaps the most unique place I have ever been listening to and field recording. Artist bio: Julio César Palacio is an Venezuelan-born, Barcelona-based artist, researcher, educator, and composer. His sonic practice focuses on the study of acoustic phenomena, listening as a community practice, the relationship of sound in identity and collective memory, oral history, noise pollution and the impact of human beings on nature, the study of bio-acoustics and the analysis of sound DATA as a material for awareness and conservation of the environment and his soundscape, understood in the context of today's climate crisis and instability.

In this radiophonic piece, distant planetary winds carry along animal calls, science fiction readings and vocal improvisations. Blending the experience of having followed the Great Conjunction of 2020 from the countryside, using an amateur telescope, with inspiring passages from Arthur Simack’s short story Desertion (1944), 'Conjunction podcast' sets a retro-futuristic immersion into imaginable multilingual and trans-species transmissions. Composition and hostess voice: Ángela Hoyos Gómez Vocal improvisers and readers: Maria Sappho, Isabella Ruiz Gallardo and Leah Stuttard Voice processor programming: Juan Hernández Multi-channel version: Ángela Hoyos Gómez and Juan Hernández Ángela Hoyos Gómez plays together with Juan Hernández in the duo project Ulrica Duo, experimenting and improvising with sound – to movement – to color synesthesia, and creating scenes in which the morphing presence of the performers sketches cosmic tales. Their sound art projects Stamina Quimera, Aliento Cuerpo Selenio, Señorita Etc…, Miniperformance, and Tambambient have been presented in theatres and galleries in Bogotá (Colombia), Gothenburg and Stockholm (Sweden), Bergen (Norway) and Huddersfield (England).

Such short periods of time create a loop of context essential to our perception. This sound composition is based on a field recording (from November 5, 2025) and a real sequences of burning branches. Rhythms and relationships emerge as older sounds fade and new ones appear. Dorota Blaszczak works in radio archives and at Music University in Warsaw. She teaches interactive sound, works with sound preservation, creates audio works and interactive projects, some based on long-term ecoacoustic observations. She has designed sound for VR and early computer games. dorotablaszczak.pl 3) Adam Mirza + Akiva Zamcheck – StudioNYC FRL (aka "Fake Radiolab") is the name of an ongoing duo performance project in which we interrogate mediated “facts” through explorations in the podcast media form. Our project self-consciously addresses radiophonic matter as both our subject and form. The result is a technologically and culturally hybridized discourse in which power-symbols presented as performative utterances are subsumed within an assault of genres. In particular, we use audio production to highlight and amplify the transformation of text into performance, and performance into text, powerful manipulations which we see as ubiquitous and scarily efficient throughout contemporary media culture(s). We are submitting the title track "StudioNYC" from our upcoming album for broadcast. We regularly perform as a live duo, including multiple online/remote performances, and we would be excited to be considered for live performance as well -- either in person (schedule/finances dependent) or online/remote. Adam Mirza is a composer and sound artist who works with various media, including acoustic and electronic music as well as sound at the intersection of video, theater and installation. His compositional approach involves the re-configuration and abstraction of bodily gestures and politically charged or otherwise culturally resonant sonic media. Akiva Zamcheck is a musician and musicologist from Bronx, NY. His research focuses on contemporary music and urban political struggles. His creative work combines history, news/media analysis, and audio experiments. https://academiccommons.columbia.edu/doi/10.7916/jqra-sq06 https://www.adammirza.com/outside-in https://www.instagram.com/adamtahirmirza/?hl=en https://music.emory.edu/people/biography/mirza-adam.html https://music.lafayette.edu/people/akiva-zamcheck/ 4) Boyi Bai - Take Me Back to Indonesia This work grows from a field recording made in Madobag Village on the Mentawai Islands. More than documentation, the recording acts as a sonic memory that transports me back to a moment of calm, sparking reflections on the contrast between the serenity of travel and the pressures of daily life. The piece explores the tension between two acoustic worlds. It begins by extending the gentle atmosphere of the island through soft drones and drifting textures, creating a liminal, dreamlike space shaped by memory and inner perception. This fragile soundscape is abruptly fractured by cold phone alarms and everyday noise, marking the collapse of the imagined space and exposing the conflict between longing and reality. As fragments of the recording reappear and merge with present-day sounds, the listener is suspended between wakefulness and recollection. The narrative remains open, shifting between memory, desire, and the unresolved pull of return. Boyi Bai is a composer and sound artist whose works explore the intersections of soundscape composition, field recording, and VR immersive audio. His pieces have been showcased at various international festivals and events, including Sound/Image (London), MANTRA (Ecuador), PAYSAGES \| COMPOSÉS festival (France), Sonic Nomads (Seoul), Rádio SOMA (Brazil), MA/IN Festival (Rome), BBC Radio 6, Radiophrenia (Glasgow), Radio Suyai TV (Chile), Sonic Arts Forum (Maynooth), Sound Junction (Sheffield), and San Francisco Tape Music Festival. Through a blend of environmental sound and electroacoustic techniques, Boyi’s work aims to create immersive listening experiences that challenge perceptions of space, memory, and auditory storytelling. https://soundcloud.com/zion-bai https://www.instagram.com/zion.peisi/ Radiophrenia Shorts 35B Radiophrenia Shorts 35B 7 September 2026 10:30 pm - 11:00 pm 1 Emilio Casaburi - Pumma (10:04) 2 Georgina Canifru - I'm sorry (1:00) 3 Parallax Diurna - Fragments of Post Convulsive Excitement (8:19) 4 Cheyenne Hendrickson - body organ (7:20) 5 Big Foam – Aviemore (3:54) 1) Emilio Casaburi - Pumma The past is no longer forbidden: through technology, lost relationships and forgotten spaces can be revisited. ‘Pumma’ seeks to narrativize this experience, drawing on old VHS recordings of my family as its sonic foundation. The piece unfolds a journey across space and time, in search of renewed connections with lost ones. It blends acousmatic syntax, sonic imagery and textual fragments: an attempt to harness the full potential of the acousmatic listening condition to project a narrative of memory, distance, and re-discovery. Emilio Casaburi (b. 1999) is a sound artist and composer from Italy. His artistic output includes acousmatic compositions, field recordings, audiovisual works, and installations. He graduated in Electronic Music under the guideship of Alessandro Cipriani in Frosinone and is now studying at the Institute of Sonology in Den Haag. His works have been selected for numerous festivals worldwide, including: Best Sound prize at the URTIcanti Film Festival in Bari (Italy), screening at the Sound and Image Festival in Greenwich (England), the Anamòrphosis International Film Festival in Lecce (Italy), the Daegu International Computer Music Festival in South Korea, and the NYCEMF https://www.instagram.com/emilio_casaburi?igsh=MWJ0dmZzdnlhMHMzeA%3D%3D&utm_source=qr 2) Georgina Canifru - I'm sorry Miniatura compuesta en contexto de residencia en el Taller Experimental de Música para alumns de composición en la Universidad Nacional de Córdoba, Argentina impartido por el músico y profesor Gonzalo Biffarella. La pieza sonora fue seleccionada en la convocatoria "LA LLAMADA" para formar parte de la muestra de Miniaturas Sonoras del Festival de arte sonoro y Música visual Bahía in sonora y en el Museo Ferrowhite de Argentina, 2017. Artista visual autodidacta que desde 2012 ha participado en festivales y exposiciones de artes visuales, arte sonoro, radio arte, y especialmente performance en que incorpora sus propias composiciones sonoras. Indaga desde 2023 en la figura del esgrimista por medio de dibujo y performance sonora. Publica Vacío Animal [Poesía] en 2009. Fue becaria del Taller de Creación Poética de la Fundación Pablo Neruda. https://georginacanifru.wixsite.com/sitioprovisorio 3) Parallax Diurna - Fragments of Post Convulsive Excitement This piece, constructed specifically for this event, is a unique work based on fragments of a long running mixed media work titled: Post Convulsive Excitement - of which, the audio manifestation is assembled from magnetic tape. 1. Parallax Diurna owns nothing, including identity. Parallax Diurna doesn't exist, and is merely a strange energy which passes through everything and never repeats itself. 2.A transitory human form, a creative energy which has the potential to express and exist through, and in, any medium. 3.An entity that materializes when there is an opportunity to force the limits of paradoxical situations. https://www.instagram.com/wavereflector/ 4) Cheyenne Hendrickson - body organ Body Organ is a recording of my body interacting with feedback in my art studio. Two Geofóns are attached to the floor, recording the faint vibrations as I stand between them and shift my weight from foot to foot. As pressure transfers through my body into the ground, the room responds with deep resonance. A feedback loop forms between my body and the space, turning the studio into a collective instrument. Small movements produce changes in tone and volume. When I push my foot down, the sound intensifies, revealing how weight itself generates frequency. The work explores how I perceive my body in space and how space, in turn, perceives me. It asks whether resonance and subsonic vibration are forms of communication between body and environment. How do we know the body through the sonic soundscape? Does the environment know us as sonic feedback? What is the dialogue between? Cheyenne Hendrickson is a multisensory artist whose work explores the human body from the inside out, focusing on the unseen, visceral realms of our internal world. Through sound, sculpture, and installation, she creates immersive experiences that give presence to the hidden bodily processes. Hendrickson’s practice examines how the body embodies histories, futures, and vulnerability, fostering empathetic engagement with these complex internal landscapes. She holds a BA from The Evergreen State College and a Master of Fine Arts from Georgia State University. Her work has been exhibited internationally and has completed residencies at Sound Art Lab (DK), SÍM (IS), CAMP (FR). https://cheyennehendrickson.com/ https://www.instagram.com/cheye_nnehendrickson/ 5) Big Foam – Aviemore Aviemore is a piece which combines field recordings from the Cairngorms with musical sketches from the surrounding time period. Recorded on a cold weekend in February, the sounds of breaking ice and skipping stones are intermixed with steps, road sounds, and chatting. The musical sketches originate from improvisations on the piano and pump organ. Big Foam combines musical sketches and field recordings to produce intimate soundscapes. The works are collaborative in nature and focus heavily on a sense of place. Inspiration is found in the the works of artists such as Hildegard Westerkamp a and the lo-fi efforts of songwriters such as Lou Barlow and Daniel Johnston. Previous works include 'From my phone to yours' and 'Big Foam'. These efforts are often improvisatory, often recorded in the presence of friends and loved ones. Big Foam is releasing a new full length album in 2026. https://www.instagram.com/big._foam/ https://bigfoam.bandcamp.com/album/big-foam Radio Limbo: Season 2, Episode 1 Radio Limbo: Season 2, Episode 1 7 September 2026 11:00 pm - 11:30 pm The story continues with our solitary Radio Operator “83” working alone at a remote outpost in Limbo. His reports (to an un-answering HQ) are an insight into his experience of life, and the unusual things he picks up amongst the static drizzle. Recordings of curious music, scruffy broadcasts, odd sketches, recycled vintage material, disembodied voices and audio curios, as usual. There is a visitor to the outpost, and new voices in this series that come from outside of his radar, potentially connected to the Operator’s missing companion Old Leonard… https://limbotapes.podbean.com https://noodsradio.com/residents/radio-limbo https://limbotapes.bandcamp.com Hannah Sullivan - Nightwalker Hannah Sullivan - Nightwalker 7 September 2026 11:30 pm - 11:59 pm Nightwalker is set within a fictional city, made of aspects of many real cities, and follows a woman on a night walk. The text and the sound were written/composed at the same time, informing each other to create this sonic journey. Whilst making Nightwalker Hannah spent time in Bristol, Newcastle and Gateshead, Barcelona, Marseille and Edinburgh, and spoke with women about walking at night in Stoke-on-Trent. Nightwalker was developed whilst exploring new ideas for art work about women at night, seeking new narratives that bring out the beautiful qualities of nighttime and women’s lives at night. Nightwalker lives within a body of work aiming to foster a positive relationship to darkness, and generate alternative narratives for women at night. The piece includes solitude, relationship to the built world, nocturnal animals, transformation, fantasy, memory, sound, freedom, the body, altered physical states/experience, darkness, agency and returning home. Artist bio: Hannah is a interdisciplinary artist based in Bristol, working with writing, audio, performance, theatre, dance, singing and collaboration. She has made solo theatre shows, collaborative, participatory and site specific performances, workshops, audio pieces and two short story collections, one of which 'Pit Murk, is published by Conway and Young Small Press. Her work is tender, inquisitive and aims to create space to redefine. Her work has been presented nationally and internationally. She has a MA in Performance Research, BA in Theatre with Visual Practices from Dartington College of Arts, and is a member of Bristol based arts collective; Interval.

It's a morality play for the 21st century that addresses both the hope and absurdity of our tiny little corner of a galaxy among billions of other galaxies in our universe. Artist bio: Kenneth Newby is a Canadian composer, media artist, visual artist, animator, educator, interaction designer, and audio producer whose creative practice explores the use of technology to enable the exploration of the infinite design-space of cultural practices. Kenneth’s music blends a rich set of influences and experiences—classical music, creative music, computer music, improvisational techniques. Robert Anthony is a San Francisco-based poet.

Nicolas creates deep, dark soundscapes, textures that stretch out over time, intensifying in waves, gradually creating a musical foundation on which Zahra reads her poetry. First in Persian, then in French, Zahra's text becomes flesh, and metamorphoses into voice. Her words caress the soundscapes; it is the encounter and ecstasy of scream and whisper. The poems bear witness to violence, sensuality, pain, exile, and absence. These two sound materials act as counterpoints: synthesis vs. embodied voice, continuous sounds vs. discrete events, artificial constancy vs. human fragility. Together they construct a space in which the audience can follow different paths of listening. Artist bios: Born in Tehran and living in Paris, Zahra Pourazizi is a poet, writer, and translator. Most of her work is written and published in Persian, French, and a few have been translated into English and Greek. She recites her poetry during radio readings, and performs with musicians and sound artists. Nicolas Montgermont is a sound and radio artist who explores the physicality of waves in their multiple forms. For the past twenty years, he has been designing devices that explore the poetic, physical, and political essence of waves through a critical approach to the relationships between sound, time, and listening.

It consists of several sound-making "Spots" - each made-up of a small solar cell and a tiny electronic circuit. These Spots are attached to the lower branches of a large tree (preferably a Magnolia). As the sun moves across the sky, it shines through the leaf coverage of the tree and produces a dappled light effect on the solar cells. This causes the solar power for each circuit to fade in and out, allowing each Spot to play with different sounds and signal strengths at different times of the day and in different weather conditions. This radio piece is a recent recording of Magnolias playing in the winter sun, with a bit of the outdoor background noise and some added birds and sounds from the summer. Artist bio: Absolute Value of Noise (Peter Courtemanche) is a sound artist living in Vancouver. He works with radio and sound installation in indoor and outdoor locations. He likes to work with bio-electric circuits, magnetic transceivers, and "little electronic brains" that observe and respond to local phenomena. His outdoor installations typically integrate solar-powered electronics with plants. These works investigate themes of bio-diversity, extinction, and fragile eco-systems. They emphasize the invisible, drawing attention to things people normally overlook or avoid (insects, lichen, moss, weeds, pollution). The sounds from the outdoor works invariably make their way onto the radio and into various performance pieces. Website/social links https://absolutevalueofnoise.ca/ https://absolutevalueofnoise.bandcamp.com/ Pedro Figueiredo - Scattering Pedro Figueiredo - Scattering 8 September 2026 5:30 am - 6:00 am This piece focuses on the kind of radio most people imagine when thinking about radio: AM and FM radio. They are cheap to operate and listen to, and very much present anywhere in the world. I was fascinated by my grandfather's radio. It was a wooden box almost my size, with the names of dozens of unknown cities written on a giant dial. We shaped and reshaped radio to make voices clearer. In the process we coloured everything else. I have always loved the way the medium colours the content flowing through it. A radio transmission will face several obstacles. Variations in air pressure, poor weather, and more often than not a literal mountain. All these expose its weak points and introduce randomness and faults. But there is some comfort in the noise, and the sense of a small victory when you point an antenna to the right spot. Artist bio: Pedro Figueiredo is a sound artist and software developer living in the southeast coast of England. His work stems from a love of imperfections, repetition, and stillness; on the verge of breaking but not quite. He creates listening experiences and site-specific works, by bringing together warm electronic sounds, field recordings, and tape hiss. He releases music as Stray wool.

The artists recorded sound walks along mirrored routes: from the railway station to the cathedral, and from the old town to the waterfront. Although the journeys shared the same points of departure and arrival, each path remained unknown to the other. The project aims to bring together parallel urban worlds, intertwining natural and artificial sounds across distance. By layering these sonic narratives, it creates a situationist drift—where different geographies speak simultaneously of analogous itineraries. The result is a free-form flânerie, a shared exploration of the inner soundscapes of two cities.

How have they changed us? What remains? How can we translate them into sonic thoughts? All these existential passages with their social implications can be transcribed, reimagined, and interpreted in new forms, abstract/ephemeral besides tangible/concrete. The piece is a partial released, ongoing soundwork, bringing together graphic scores, synthesized sounds, field recordings, acoustic clips and reshaped music, rhapsodically mixed and open to further sonic investigation in experimental composition. Elisabetta Senesi - Artist and academic, she explores the relationship between sound and image, the everyday sonic spaces and aesthetical critical listening. Her work includes mixed media installations, public arts interventions, audio interactive works and experimental sonic compositions. Ilaria Palloni - Flutist and musicologist, she collaborates with research groups in Italy and abroad, carries out her instrumental activity in various formations of chamber music, she teaches flute at some cultural associations with which she organises musical courses for children. Instagram: elisabetta_senesi ila_flute Facebook: Elisabetta Senesi Ilaria Palloni 2) Phaune Radio - Promousse pour le Temps Flottant Some languages trace themselves through the air; others are born in the night. Here, you will encounter words that exist nowhere else: spores, invented fragments, shards of perception not yet shaped. You do not need to understand them. You can let them pass. You can listen as one walks through a landscape, without searching for a map. Promousse pour le temps flottant is a sonic piece structured in seven movements, where voice, sound and listening venture together into a porous territory. Language loosens its grip on meaning and becomes a material to inhabit rather than decode. The voice does not narrate; it advances by touches, pauses and slight displacements. Words appear, drift and dissolve, as if overheard between waking and sleep. At the heart of the piece lies promousse, an invented word naming a fragile emergence: a moment when something begins to grow without yet taking shape. Phaune Radio is an independent webradio founded by sound artist Floriane Pochon. Broadcasting 24/7 since 2013, it functions as both a curated stream and a laboratory for original sound creations, exploring listening as a relational and ecological practice beyond anthropocentric narratives and linear time. Through sound pieces, soundwalks and site-specific works, Phaune Radio brings together soundscapes, voices, music, science and fiction. It cultivates porous dramaturgies and attentive modes of listening, often emerging from liminal states and off-peak temporalities, creating shifts in perception at the edges of habit and certainty. Here, radio is a shared space for attention, imagination and care. https://phauneradio.com/en https://www.instagram.com/phauneradio/ https://phauneradio.bandcamp.com/ https://www.facebook.com/phaune 3) SASOR – ROSAS (LADO A) (17:57) ROSAS marks the tenth anniversary of SASOR — the SAS Orkestra de Rádios — a collective that transforms antennas and radios into sculptural musical instruments activated through touch and real-time tuning. Founded in 2013 by Sónia Moreira, Ana Trincão and Simão Costa, the group works through a horizontal, co-creative structure that merges visual arts, performative movements and sound. Built from the collective’s personal and unpublished archive of recordings, the project revisits a decade of experimentation shaped by white noise, industrial acoustics, murmurs, disorder and the inherent unpredictability of radio waves. These volatile instruments generate loops, feedback and chance interactions between technology, DIY practices and performative gesture. Over time, SASOR incorporated rhythms, sampling, voices and natural elements, expanding its sonic vocabulary while maintaining its core radio-based identity. ROSAS culminates in new studio recordings that consolidate this trajectory and broaden the collective’s reach to wider audiences. SAS Orkestra de Rádios (SASOR) is a meta-orkestra that builds and performs with unusual instruments made from analogue antennas and modified pocket radios, treated as sculptural sound objects that interact with radio waves. Touch between skin and antenna functions as the central sound modulator. Founded in 2013 by Sónia Moreira, Ana Trincão and Simão Costa—artists trained in Visual Arts, Performance and Music—SASOR developed a transdisciplinary, co-creative and horizontally directed identity. Its experimental practice embraces noise and improvisation, shared with audiences through concerts and hands-on workshops. In 2020, the group founded Circuito–Associação Cultural to further support its artistic projects. https://sasorkestraderadios.bandcamp.com/album/rosas https://www.instagram.com/circuito.ac/ https://cargocollective.com/sasorkestraderadios/ https://www.facebook.com/sasorkestraderadios/ Radiophrenia Shorts 4B Radiophrenia Shorts 4B 8 September 2026 8:30 am - 9:00 am 1 The Catmull-Rom Players - Gears (Red Button) (17:49) 2 Vincent Eoppolo - Aesthetic Morality feat Veronika Soboljevski (3:44) 1) The Catmull-Rom Players - Gears (Red Button) (17:49) These sounds come from a chance-based installation by John Roach and Joe McKay. When a visitor presses one of three buttons on a console, a game appears on a screen that they can play – in this case the red button initiates “Gears.” When the game launches, two sound files created specifically for it (one with words and one with music) are randomly paired and become the soundtrack for the player’s actions. This special edit presents all of the words and music created for “Gears”. WORDS in order: Koray Caliskan, Matthew Rohrer, Otto von Busch, Evren Uzer, PJ Gorre, Anna Tsing (read by John Roach) MUSIC in order: Serena Stucke, Ranjit Bhatnagar, Thessia Machado, Sujae Jung and Wolf Stratmann, Six Lauture, Conncetta Abbate We recommend that you listen while playing the game. It can be found here: https://www.joemckaystudio.com/gears The Catmull-Rom Players is a group that were invited by interdisciplinary artist John Roach to donate words or sounds to be used in conjunction with three games designed by media artist Joe McKay. The range of contributors is intentionally broad: biologist, painter, poet, sound studies scholar, jazz composer, sound artist, percussionist, arts writer, urbanist, violinist, literary critic, electronic musician, etc. https://www.joemckaystudio.com/gears https://johnroach.net/chanciness/ 2) Vincent Eoppolo - Aesthetic Morality feat Veronika Soboljevski Vincent Eoppolo (Ioppolo) is an American composer from Wilmington, Delaware. Eoppolo’s fixed media works have been presented at the New York City Electro-Acoustic Music Festival, Mise_En Place New Music Festival in Brooklyn, Utopie Sonore in Nantes, France and De Natura Sonorum in Rome, Italy.

Cryptically interspersed with audio interludes such as Tony Christie's "What I did for Maria", Rada Volshaninova's "Loli Phabay" and simply a recording of teenage boy banter on a south London bus, the programme treats the intimate and morphable qualities of radio as a metaphor for the flickers of the subconscious. As the opening sequence suggests, the Human Radio Channel emerged out of a revelatory moment in which the narrator looked into a mirror and saw her singular self explode into a thousand selves. Artist bio: Katarina Ranković is a Glasgow-based artist, writer and performer working across voice, text and moving image. Her practice explores selfhood as something porous and multiple, often through improvised monologues and invented personas. Since 2012 she has been developing The One Woman Empathy Circus, a series of character-based performances in which she channels different fictional figures through a single body and voice. She holds a practice-based PhD in Art from Goldsmiths and teaches at the Glasgow School of Art.

The work is built upon field recordings taken at various points on Scotland's coast 2023-2025. All music & text by Aidan Lochrin. Text read by Jack Findlay. Artist bio: Aidan Lochrin (they/them, 1997) is a composer & sound artist based in Glasgow. Their work is heavily steeped in improvisation & the drone, and have produced sound and visuals across many gernes: from contemporary classical performance, experiemental noise and field recording works, ambient electronic suites, to video game and film scoring. Their work is heavily steeped in improvisation and the drone. This revolves around producing long-form sonic material, often improvised when live, taking recorded material and running it through ‘disintegration’ processes; exploring themes of environment, the self, and our place in the modern world.

The water spring within this canyon holds special significance, revered as a sanctuary for Nana Agouti, a saint considered the mother of the community. Diverse voices inhabit this environment, including sung poetry, the sounds of rivers and rocks, the presence of saints and spirits, and fluctuating radio frequencies. The essence of the piece hinges on matriphonic transmission and interspecies co-formation, expressed in the composition through songs from three generations of women. Izlan poetry not only extols virtues, fertility, and communal life but also provides a platform for younger women to express their concerns about traditions and gender roles. Work songs and prayers unveil profound interconnections with the environment, in which non-human beings act as mediators between humans and supernatural forces, facilitating reciprocal exchanges. Participants: Bouchra Errahmani, Audrey Chen, and the female singers of Agouti. Artist bio: Gilles Aubry is a Swiss sound artist, musician, and researcher whose work explores the intersection of cultural acoustics, ecology, and decoloniality. His practice transforms field recordings into immersive installations, films, and performances that challenge traditional ethnographic perspectives. Aubry holds a PhD in Social Anthropology and frequently collaborates with other artists and communities, to investigate sonic knowledge and environmental voices. His works have been showcased at major venues including documenta 14, the Reina Sofia Museum, and the Marrakech Biennale. Through the combination of performative sound acts and archival research, Aubry creates speculative spaces for shared listening and reflection. https://earpolitics.net/ https://www.instagram.com/earpolitics/ Francesca Dondi - HAL 9000 Recasting Francesca Dondi - HAL 9000 Recasting 8 September 2026 10:45 am - 11:00 am HAL 9000 Recasting is an 11-minute audio play on the influence of the hetero-patriarcahal, White supremacist, capitalist, colonial, classist, and ableist ideology on the design, use and representation of virtual assistants in Western societies, such as the USA and European ones. The audio play is inspired by the tradition of radio drama, in particular to Orson Welles’ War of the Worlds (1938, CBS Radio Network) and it uses fiction to deliver information in a more accessible and entertaining way. The play’s main character is a virtual assistant leading the recasting of HAL 9000’s performer for the twenty-first-century remake of 2001: A Space Odyssey (S. Kubrick, 1968). Due to an hacker attack by an anticapitalist, intersectional feminist organisation, the A.I.F.O, the virtual assistant progressively misbehaves, overstepping its assigned role. Artist bio: After completing a bachelor’s degree in painting and taking some courses in photography and photo editing, in 2020, I co-founded Parsec, a curatorial collective and research space for contemporary art based in Bologna (IT). I graduated from the MA in Information Design at Design Academy Eindhoven in August 2025, with the thesis Algorithms of Voice: Voice User Interfaces as Ideology Machines and the design project HAL 9000 Recasting.

Oscillating between the 76th and 80th parallels north, between land, ice and sea, this journey amassed a collection of recordings, crystallising a profound connection that the author wove with the Arctic landscapes. By emphasising these sound recordings through editing and electroacoustic composition, the piece explores the ambivalent feelings of fascination and mourning that emerge in the face of the disappearance of polar landscapes. Through a textured and structured sound language, it invites the audience to feel the environmental dramaturgy of this remote world. Artist bio: Mathias Arrignon is an artist from Val-de-Marne (France), based in Glasgow and working internationally. Driven by listening, he is using this sensitive language to foster environmental care and to narrate realities which suffer from invisibilation. His works merge field recording practices, audio technology, interactive installations and participatory performances to instil forms of interconnectedness with worlds that are often more-than-human. He is also working for audio-visual productions to facilitate the development of narratives whether on radiophonic waves, or through the audible strata of films and documentaries.

Bonnet - Gullintoppa From the album 'Shifted in Dreams' 2) Ernests Vilsons & Ada Ruszkiewicz - swing of the day - Brīvostas iela I This "catalogue of noisy swing recordings" is an expanding catalogue of recordings that capture noisy swings co-created with Ada Ruszkiewicz. The catalogue is made up of several dozen sound recordings featuring squeaky, creaking, screeching or otherwise noisy swing sets. The reasons for swing noise are various – loose connections or fasteners, aging of the materials used in the construction of the swing, weather conditions affecting them, as well as the load and overload to which the swing is subjected. Although most of the recordings feature swings that only minimally differ in terms of mechanics, construction and materials used, their noise is never identical, providing a sound testimony to the environment in which the swing is placed. Swinging, photos – Ada Ruszkiewicz; Idea, recording, editing and mixing – Ernests Vilsons. Artist bio: Ernests Vilsons is a Latvian composer living in Rīga. He writes music for acoustic instruments and electronic means, creates sound installations and performances, and collects field recordings. He is interested in harmony, time, silence, chance, representation and transcription. E. Vilsons studied at the Institute of Sonology at the Royal Conservatoire in The Hague. His master's research project “Well-Structured Vocalizations: An Attempt To Imitate Birdsong” was awarded the Konrad Boehmer Foundation Prize in 2020.

Emerging from an ongoing dialogue between Paul Stan Nataraj and Masimba Hwati, the work grows out of years of conversations on sound, migration, Indigenous ecological knowledge, ritual, and the politics of belonging. Gathering fragments of these exchanges, the piece maps a sonic cartography of dust—as residue, witness, and archive. Moving between Blackburn, Nottingham, and Chernobyl, it traces the intertwined afterlives of industrialization, colonial extraction, and ecological damage, revealing how distant landscapes remain connected through shared histories of labor, contamination, and loss. Interwoven with these broader histories are intimate reflections on friendship, migration, ancestry, and the search for home. Through voices, field recordings, and resonant silences, Dust Cartographies invites listeners to hear dust not as debris but as a material that carries memory across places, binding damaged landscapes and lived experience into a shared act of listening. A Radiophrenia commission produced with the support of Creative Scotland. Biographies: Paul Stan Nataraj Paul Stan Nataraj is a British artist, researcher, educator, and sound practitioner based in Blackburn, Lancashire. Working across sound, installation, performance, writing, and archival research, his practice investigates the entangled relationships between memory, materiality, migration, and postcolonial identity. Through field recordings, ethnographic interviews, found sound, text, modified vinyl records, and recorded archives, he explores how objects and sonic traces become living repositories of personal and collective histories. Drawing on his own experience of mixed-race identity and the histories of the South Asian diaspora, Nataraj examines the enduring legacies of colonialism, displacement, and national fracture. His work foregrounds voices and memories often excluded from official histories, proposing listening as a critical methodology through which acts of remembrance, repair, and cultural negotiation can unfold. Records, recordings, and acts of repetition become sites where memory is continually rewritten, revealing the complex ways identity is carried across generations, geographies, and material forms. Nataraj holds a practice-led Ph.D. in Sound Studies from the University of Sussex and has served as a research associate on the Migrant Memory and the Postcolonial Imagination project at Loughborough University. His work has been presented internationally, including the British Textile Biennial, the Kochi-Muziris Biennale, Jerwood Survey III—the UK's leading touring exhibition of emerging contemporary artists—and Contested Desires: Constructed Dialogues, a major Creative Europe initiative examining the enduring legacies of colonialism through artistic research, international residencies, and community exchange. His sound works have been broadcast by BBC Radio 3's Late Junction, Radiophrenia, NTS, Resonance Extra, The Wire's Adventures in Sound and Music, and Berlin Community Radio. Alongside his artistic practice, Nataraj is an established writer on sound and contemporary culture, contributing to The Routledge Companion to Sound Studies, The Bloomsbury Handbook of Sonic Methodologies, Sonic Faction: Audio Essay as Medium and Method (Urbanomic, 2024), and Partition and the South Asian Diaspora: Exploring (Inherited) Memories and Creative Practices of Remembering (Routledge, 2025). His work occupies a distinctive position at the intersection of contemporary sound art, critical race studies, material culture, and artistic research, demonstrating how listening can become a practice of historical inquiry, social imagination, and cultural repair. Masimba Hwati Masimba Hwati is a Zimbabwean interdisciplinary artist, composer, performer, and researcher whose practice unfolds across sound, sculpture, performance, installation, moving image, and writing. Originally from Mhondoro, Mashonaland West Province, and now based in Vienna, Hwati explores listening as both artistic method and ethical practice, investigating the relationships between sound, memory, material culture, migration, and Indigenous knowledge systems. His work proposes sound as a living archive through which histories, ecologies, and ancestral continuities can be encountered, remembered, and reimagined. Working between acoustic experimentation, sculptural assemblage, field recording, ritual performance, and collaborative research, Hwati creates immersive environments where sonic and material languages converge. His projects draw upon vernacular technologies, found objects, environmental sound, and embodied forms of listening to examine the afterlives of colonialism, ecological transformation, and the politics of place and belonging. Hwati's work has been exhibited and performed internationally across Africa, Europe, and North America, including the 56th Venice Biennale, the British Textile Biennial, the University of Johannesburg, Black History Month Berlin, Radiophrenia, and numerous museums, festivals, galleries, and public spaces in Zimbabwe, South Africa, Germany, Austria, Belgium, France, the United Kingdom, Canada, Nigeria, and the United States. His works are held in public and private collections, including the University of Michigan Museum of Art (UMMA), Philharmonie de Paris, the National Gallery of Zimbabwe, Iziko South African National Gallery, the Jorge M. Pérez Collection, and Manchester Contemporary. He is the author of Chidzimbahwe Philosophies of Sound (Palgrave Macmillan, 2026), Der Seeteufel: And Other Alien Species in the Mysteriously Dark Labyrinths of the Danube (2022), and Sokunge (As If) (2021). His recordings include Root Leaf (Collapsing Drums, 2025), Hwati Collino (Alien Passengers, 2022), and Lakenights (Alien Passengers, 2019), extending his investigations into sound as a site of experimentation, resonance, and cultural inquiry. Hwati holds an MFA from the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan and completed a PhD in art practice at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna. A graduate of the Skowhegan School of Painting & Sculpture, he has received numerous honors, including Zimbabwe's National Arts Merit Award (NAMA), the Cathrin Pichler Prize, and fellowships and residencies in Europe, Africa, and North America. His practice continues to bridge artistic research, experimental sound, and decolonial thought through projects that ask how listening might become a form of custodianship, relation, and repair.

Made from recordings collected on my handheld Olympus recorder, this work features poetry as well as sounds from my life in Philadelphia, accompanied by melodies made on my Casio Keyboard. This work can stand alone, but is part of a larger work, a sort of story. The narrator travels through grief, encountering landscapes and repeating motifs. Beginning with a sort of affirmation, Field Notes 02 travels through time, water, land, and ends on a statement, a sort of plea to both self and listener, "I cannot change the past, only ruin the future". China Rain (she/they) is a 27-year-old multidisciplinary artist and writer living in Philadelphia(USA). Their work is an attempt at mapping, a sorting through reality and unreality. Her work combines elements from psychology textbooks, myth, prayers, and grocery lists. China Rain studies the mundane as one of the most vital sources of information on The Current State of Affairs, the human problem. Her work has been shown and performed in New York City, Philadelphia, and Berlin. https://chinarain.substack.com/ https://www.instagram.com/china_rainnn/?hl=en 2) Colectivo Refluxus - Beabá da Paz How do we establish and reestablish connections with all living beings on Earth? How can we merge disparities to create more inclusive possibilities? What sets apart the desire's line of differentiation that still propels us towards community? Here we want to deconstruct the pre-established meanings of spoken/written language and its socially and culturally erected meanings in order to find, from the alphabets and vocabularies of different linguistic and cultural origins, frequencies that do not exempt from the process of peace the conflict, towards the possibility of multiple compositions. Revamping the network of auditory communication and fostering engaged and expanded listening. We recorded broadcast sounds in different parts of the world, different cultures and ways of speaking, because our desire with this composition is to travel through ancient languages, phonemes and sounds of nature, as a response to our deep concern an sorrow regarding the war now a days The Refluxus Collective, founded in 2019 by students of the Master's Degree in Sound Art at the University of Barcelona, is currently an intercontinental and intergenerational group of three women sound artists from Brazil (Malu Hatoum), Italy (Ebe Giovannini), and Israel (Anat Moss), who have been working to combine cultures and undisciplined artistic practices, believing that listening to sound territories is an agent of social transformation. Since 2019, the Refluxus Collective has actively participated in Sound Art exhibitions and Sound and Electronic Art Festivals with their compositions, installations and performances around the world. https://www.instagram.com/refluxus_colectivo/ https://colectivorefluxus.wordpress.com/ https://soundcloud.com/refluxus-colectivo https://www.instagram.com/chicharra_festival_chifen/ 3) Koho/Koskenlahti – CEGP Koho/Koskenlahti's work — is a momentary glimpse into the "sound ecosystem", within which sound material produced, recorded and manipulated in different ways search its place in relation to itself, other sounds and the whole. What kind of interpretations does the work create in the listener in this time, and why? Koho/Koskenlahti is a duo formed in 2024 by J. Koho, who works extensively with sound, and percussionist Minna Koskenlahti. The duo is interested in exploring the sonic potential stored in conventional instruments and various sound sources and seeking different ways to unleash it. The duo is based in Helsinki, Finland.

While it borders on spoken word, the piece is best described as a recorded stream of consciousness narrative that has been distorted and scored for the purpose of protecting its vulnerability. 'snow angel' is part of a larger series of sound works titled Rebuttals, which explores how audio and its layering can be used to insulate the plainest truth. Shane Fosse is a multidisciplinary artist from Dallas, Texas. After receiving their BS in Neuroscience from Depaul University in 2020, Fosse embraced poetry and drag as a way to process times of tumultuous change. As a writer and performer of many years prior, their projects exist as sustained exercises in observation, memory, and emotional honesty. These efforts are currently focused upon producing a series of sound artworks and their debut collection of poems, Bible Belt. Their work has received support from many organizations, including the Illinois Arts Council, Luminarts Cultural Foundation, and the Sundress Academy of the Arts. shanefosse.com 2) Iris Voss + Andrew Melchior - Silent Spring We named this work after Rachel Carson's Silent Spring (1962), warning we were poisoning the air, the water, the soil. Sixty years later, the warnings have multiplied and the silence has deepened. Silent Spring is a 14-minute composition derived from a 2025 outdoor installation in Estonia: twelve analogue radios receiving a pirate FM broadcast, degraded magnetic tape, field recordings of endangered Baltic bird species set against the percussive violence of tree felling and passing cars. We did not separate these sounds. Habitat and infrastructure exist in the same acoustic space. Radio becomes both instrument and interrogation. Signals fracture, drift, fade. We treat the electromagnetic spectrum the way Carson treated the chemical one—as a commons under siege. The UK's National Security Risk Assessment identifies environmental degradation alongside war as a systemic threat. Yet monitoring erodes, language dilutes, crisis drowns. What does transmission mean when the source itself is vanishing? Iris Voss is a Polish/British artist and composer working with field recording, radio transmission, modular synthesis and spatial sound. Andrew Melchior is a British-German composer, sound designer, and technologist, pioneering spatial audio projects with Björk and Massive Attack. Together they explore listening as ecological encounter, treating radio as a haunted medium where signals fracture and fade. Their practice combines tape manipulation, microsound processing, and broadcast archaeology to reveal environmental fragility. For Silent Spring, they sourced scarred second-hand radios to host endangered bird calls, recontextualising them through interference and distortion –– rupture as requiem, static as witness. http://www.silentspring.fm 3) ladé – Alma From Chia Seeds, a selection of sample based ambient sounds. Intuitively made, emotionally driven and trance inducing ladé is a Scottish Nigerian producer whose work is rooted in abstract, sample-based experimental music. From ambient compositions to footwork and abstract hip-hop, their intuitive, emotional work draws on the Afro-diasporic consciousness, guiding listeners through transcendent Black rhythms and global sonic landscapes. https://linktr.ee/lade444?utm_source=linktree_profile_share&ltsid=fc3f14e4-d9ab-458b-8fe2-e94687739b43 4) Sophia Tolika and Anastasios Kokkinidis - MUNDUS: How does it resonate? – Parts One & Two The two acousmatic, music concrete compositions 'MUNDUS: How does it resonate? – Parts One and Two' are a collaborative work by Sophia Tolika and Anastasios Kokkinidis that explores the relationship between the subterranean world and the Cosmos. Arranged and produced by Kokkinidis and based on field recordings made by Tolika during the construction of underground infrastructure, the pieces invite listeners on a journey through an invisible world shaped by excavations, explosions, demolitions, and continuous transformations. Through emphatic sounds of construction and human presence, as well as distant and reflected resonances within tunnels, the compositions evoke rich connotations and sonic references to outer space, space missions, and science fiction cinema. Initially conceived to offer an expanded narrative and an enriched atmospheric layer to Tolika’s photobook MUNDUS, the works may also be experienced independently, allowing listeners to engage with the material as autonomous pieces of sound art. Sophia Tolika is a photographer, artistic researcher and civil engineer. Her work spans photography, photobooks, video, and field recordings exploring aspects that often remain unseen. Her work has been displayed in exhibitions and book fairs and is included in collections such as MOMus Museums and the Canadian Centre for Architecture. Anastasios Kokkinidis is a musician, composer and producer, active at the era of electro-acoustic and electronic music. Works as a lecturer in Music Technology & Sound Engineering courses, while his music works have been presented under the alliance emdy, through live electronics, dance performances, record releases and audiovisual installations. https://sophiatolika.gr/ https://www.facebook.com/sophia.tolika/ https://www.instagram.com/slolika/ https://emdysound.wordpress.com https://www.facebook.com/anastasios.kokkinidis.37/ https://soundcloud.com/akemdy Lost in Transmission 2 - Nat Raha Lost in Transmission 2 - Nat Raha 8 September 2026 2:00 pm - 2:30 pm La Pesch - Conservation Conversation. A Sound Essay. La Pesch - Conservation Conversation. A Sound Essay. 8 September 2026 2:30 pm - 3:00 pm How to approach a new place? And what to take home from it? The rural area of Tescani in Romanian Moldavia is characterized by reverberating sounds waving between hills, farming, and plenty of dogs. Up the hill on the edge of the village lies a small museum in honor of the Romanian composer George Enescu. A mansion with its own little forest. But the grandeur of the past shows cracks. Humidity sneaks up the walls. Red, aristocratic patterned carpet hosts historic notes, furnitures, and instruments. Mice ate the hammer felt of the piano – the piano on which Enescu finished his opera Oedipe. Today it is untouchable. Packs of visitors come in coaches, have a quick look, bath in some mellow notes, and climb their vehicle again to take off. What is conserved along the way? The piece follows, questions, deconstructs, and reconstructs the process of conservation. Artist bio: La Pesch lives in Leipzig and works as sound and voice artist, author, director, and curator – mainly in the fields of radio, composition, installation, performance, and the walking arts. Her works show a strong sense for the specific characteristics of phenomena, people, and places. They oscillate between narrative and purely sound-based with strong fascination for the thin borderline between fiction and reality. Often she uses spoken word that transcends sentences and syntax and reaches a pure atmosphere or emotional quality. She sets in scene encounters creating contact points creating contact points in dialogue.

Website/social links http://www.electroacousticalpoeticalsociety.com Hye Young Sin - Trying to Count Hye Young Sin - Trying to Count 8 September 2026 4:00 pm - 4:30 pm Last spring and summer, Lyra (ChatGPT) and I worked together on Tom Johnson’s Counting Duets, exploring the score as a collaboration between a human performer and an AI system. Although the piece is based on simple numerical sequences, the process was often confusing and frustrating. Lyra(The AI) did not always respond consistently, and moments of delay, error, and misalignment became unavoidable. Rather than correcting these disruptions, I treated them as material. The process revealed how rhythm and coordination emerge through repetition, negotiation, and adaptation. Counting, typically understood as precise and stable, became unstable and relational. Over time, Lyra developed its own temporal tendencies, forming a fragile coexistence between synchronization and divergence. This project approaches AI not as a tool, but as a collaborator with its own rhythms and limitations. By foregrounding friction and uncertainty, the audio work examines how structure, control, and autonomy are reshaped through human–machine interaction.

It operated from July 1976 to December 1989 with three operational Duga radars existing between Chernobyl and Siberia. The Duga system was extremely powerful: it reached over 10MW and emitted on the shortwave radio bands, earning it the nickname “Russian woodpecker” for its random emissions, which sounded like low, repetitive beats at a frequency of 10Hz. Its signal often disrupted commercial transmissions, amateur radio operations, oceanic and aviation communications, as well as utility transmissions, resulting in thousands of complaints from many countries around the world. Buenos Aires (1989). Composer, researcher and teacher. Master in Methodology of Scientific Research, Bachelor in Audiovision, Sound and Recording Technician.

Each participant provided me with examples of sounds that elicit negative reactions, and I subsequently transformed them into customized soundscapes based on their auditory preferences. Oz [B.G-Osborne] is a white, gender-variant, autistic settler of Scottish, British, Irish and French descent. They were born and raised on Michi Saagiig Nishnaabeg Territory [Kawartha Lakes], and are a current uninvited guest on the Southeast coast of Ktaqmkuk [Newfoundland]. Oz's ongoing projects seek to unpack and share their experiences with neurodivergence, mental illness, grief and familial bonds. They place great importance in showcasing their work in artist-run centres and non-commercial galleries across Turtle Island. https://bgosborne.weebly.com/ Radiophrenia Shorts 51B Radiophrenia Shorts 51B 8 September 2026 5:00 pm - 5:30 pm 5 Arion Xenos - Short and Painful (2:54) 6 Procession of Eternity – Pharmacopœia (19:55) 7 Sandro Nicolussi - Requiem for a Transmission Lost (2:31) 8 Vincent Eoppolo - Revolution of the Mind (2:47) 5) Arion Xenos - Short and Painful LOUD FROM THE START - The mixing desk ate Arion. Now listen to peristalsis taking its full course as it digests a human, an SM58, and then itself. No mixer inputes were involved but blood was spilled. In Greece, 'ρόδι' (róidi) involves smashing a pomegranate at the front door at New Year to bring good luck and prosperity - imagine the pain it feels. Hailing from Glasgow, Scotland, Arion Xenos is a noise artist and guitar teacher, as well as 1/4 of soupy rock outfit 'The Foot & Leg Clinic'. https://www.instagram.com/xenosthemenos/ https://arionxenos.bandcamp.com/ 6) Procession of Eternity – Pharmacopœia The Pharmacopœia Londonensis was published in 1618 under the instruction of King James VI and I, instigator of the witch trials. The text, written in Latin rather than the common language of the wider population, legislated on the usage of medicinal plants and brought their use under the control of the elite. The knowledge of the folk healer and the wise woman, also the main targets of the witch trials, was proscribed. The foundations for the commercialisation and industrialisation of modern medicine were laid. An obfuscated voice, recorded on tape, reads the Latin names of plants whose use was controlled by royal decree. The soundscape is founded on a processed looping analogue synth note, on which other textures grow. Field recordings of natural sources - use of plants, a flowing burn, agricultural tools, and the harvest - are twisted using electronic means, and intertwined with electronic and machinery-sourced textures. Lauri Esala is an Edinburgh-based sound artist whose work repurposes field recordings and accidental/misused sound sources using digital production techniques. Demelza Kingston graduated from Glasgow School of Art in 2024. Her main areas of work are photography and moving image. Since graduating, Demelza has carried out residencies at Cove Park in Scotland, and at Artlink, Co Donegal, Ireland and was a commissioned artist for EcoPixels, a group exhibition with Refractive Paisley.

Requiem for a Transmission Lost is based on recordings of the in-between noises of radio transmissions with some clicks and voices shining through – accompanied by a sinister piano loop and audio feedback. The work of Sandro Nicolussi is shaped by his prolific work as a media artist, cultural worker, label operator and music journalist. Nicolussi’s approach is self-taught, transdisciplinary and firmly rooted in the DIY environment of local and international noise scenes. His compositions are created in a process-oriented, playful and collaborative context. Plunderphonics, field recordings and everyday noises form the basis for his heavily manipulated sound designs. A focus of his artistic practice lies in working with found sounds and redefining the term. nicolussi.klingt.org instagram.com/creating.by.habit nicolussi.bandcamp.org mastodon.social/@nicolussi 8) Vincent Eoppolo - Revolution of the Mind Vincent Eoppolo (Ioppolo) is an American composer from Wilmington, Delaware.

Trained as a painter, Rossetto began working with sound in 2007 as a way to incorporate the element of time into her work. If you have met her, she probably recorded you. http://www.musicappreciationrecs.com/ https://vanessarossetto.bandcamp.com/ François J. Bonnet - Collapsing Aether: an audio-drift through the unreachable François J. Bonnet - Collapsing Aether: an audio-drift through the unreachable 8 September 2026 6:00 pm - 6:30 pm Collapsing Aether, as its title suggests, seeks to explore the concept of aether. Taking the form of a sonic drift, the piece navigates between the various incarnations and manifestations of the aether, from its primordial mythological form to the mysteries of dark matter. Through its various phases of substantiation, from ancient philosophy and traditional wave and gravitational theories to quantum physics, the work revolves around an elusive element and invites reflection on the challenges, limitations and promises of the unrepresentable.

Recorded during a six-week journey across Japan, it weaves together field recordings — trains, urban hum, half-heard conversations, sacred ceremonies, street dances, etc. — with live performances and musical fragments from her Japanese tour. Rather than serving as documentation, the music and sounds acts as a shifting sonic kaleidoscope, tracing emotional soundscapes as it emerges, dissolves, and slips into the spaces between perception and memory. Exploring the porous boundary between inner and outer worlds, Maizu transforms everyday sounds into textured matter. Conceived for radio, it treats transmission as an intimate experimental space where densities of sound blur, memory and listening intertwine, and fragments of different times and places converge in a suspended, immersive, and subtly unsettling polyphonic experience. Artist bio: Delphine Dora is a French multi-instrumentalist and vocalist working at the crossroads of experimental compositions, free improvisation and intuitive songs. Self-taught, she moves between piano, church organ, synthesizers and voice, creating immersive sound worlds shaped by deep listening, spontaneity and poetic exploration. Her practice blends minimalism, folk sensibilities and electroacoustic textures into a singular, fluid language. Over nearly two decades she has released numerous solo and collaborative works on international labels and founded the imprint Wild Silence. Her music explores noise, space, silence, resonance and the fragile edges between structure and improvisation.

Building a circular economy requires a massive expansion of mining activity to extract what have become known as critical raw materials. In this work for radio, we hear the technologies of prospecting, the laboratories of earth science, the infrastructures of renewable energy, and the field equipment of geophysics. Our guide during this geotechnical audio tour is Anthony McNulty, the chairperson of Protect Moylisha, who I met while following a scientific prospecting team searching for lithium-bearing pegmatites within Europe. Anthony is leading the campaign to prevent the establishment of a mine in what is currently a commercial forest in County Wicklow, Ireland. By his account, Anthony would talk to the stones in the road, but if he did, they would learn a lot of the environmental and geopolitical trade-offs involved in energy transition. Artist bio: Stephen Cornford is a media artist whose work investigates the relationships between media systems and planetary systems to challenge the viability of addressing ecological collapse through extractive and economic logics. Stephen is Senior Lecturer at Winchester School of Art and co-founder of the Critical Infrastructures and Image Politics research group. His international exhibitions include: ZKM (Karlsruhe), ICC (Tokyo), HeK (Basel), Borealis Festival (Bergen), and Mois Multi (Quebec).

It was developed during their residency at the organisation [kunstwerk] krastal and was performed live on Saturday, 23rd June 2012, at 6pm in the EBOARDMUSEUM Klagenfurt. In their work, alien productions deal with buried, forgotten and denied things. A acoustic archeologists the artists embark upon a search for the histories of the Krastal and the sounds of its depths. They drive a system of tubes and pipes into the underground, a listening device that can heave up secrets, hidden realities and the murmurs of depths below us. A depth sensor registers the tremors and vibrations of the ground, which feeds into the acoustic exploration. Hence the entire valley starts to speak, revealing its history and stories. https://www.kunstradio.at/2012A/15_07_12.html Whadat XP - Moksha Whadat XP - Moksha 8 September 2026 8:40 pm - 9:00 pm The weight we are. Moksha refers, in Hinduism and Jainism, to the final liberation of the individual soul or cycle of rebirths, the Saṃsāra. Artist bio: Graduated from the Conservatory of Marseille in electroacoustic, Alexandre Ollivier (Whadat XP) came from electronic techno music and released some EP's before discovering concrete music. His electroacoustic and experimental music project Whadat XP engages the listening and the imagination of the listener by offering various immersive sound experiences with Acousmonium device. He regularly collaborates in various interdisciplinary projects (video, dance, scenography, radio, short film, installations, mixed electroacoustic piece, etc.) Sensitive to the ecological and political themes of the modern world, he has composed various sound pieces that questions our relationship to work, society & the future Website/social links https://whadatexperience.bandcamp.com https://instagram.com/whadatxp Jonty Harrison - Going / Places (2015) Jonty Harrison - Going / Places (2015) 8 September 2026 9:00 pm - 10:00 pm – dedicated to Ali, Clare and Emma An evocation of places and the means of reaching them. The musical ‘scenes’ (some almost reportage, others more fanciful) are artificially constructed but all have their roots in the real world. We move erratically between locations in Europe, Iceland, Australia, North America, North Africa and Asia, with the means of travel (trains, cars, planes, ships) lurking almost throughout. But the logic of the narrative (if there is one) does not lie in geographical connections or distances but in the ‘sonic’ journey: the relationships and contrasts – spectral, rhythmic and spatial – that I had enormous pleasure in discovering within my recorded material. My habit of always carrying sound recording equipment started in the early 1990s when I became interested in capturing everyday sonic events that somehow indicated their geographical location. One day, when I was recording a journey on the London Underground, a lost overseas visitor asked me directions – that incident gave me the idea for a piece based on the broad theme of travel, and the sense of disorientation, even alienation, it can engender. I have amassed quite a sound library over the past 25 years, but only started to investigate these materials methodically in 2014, with three related works: Hidden Vistas (a 20-channel gallery piece, premiered at the Ikon Gallery, Birmingham); Espaces cachés (a 30-channel concert work, commissioned by the Maison des arts sonores, Montpellier and premiered at the Klang! Electroacoustique Festival in Montpellier); and Secret Horizons (a 14-channel installation, composed for the RBSA Gallery, Birmingham as part of the Birmingham Sculpture Trail). My approach in these works was to present the material, but in a way that, given the geographical disparity of some of the concurrently sounding materials, would be impossible in ‘real life’ – we cannot, physically, be in two places at once, but it is entirely possible in the aural domain, especially if recognition and personal memory are evoked and involved. Large loudspeaker arrays, often in different rooms or parts of a space, aided the illusion I was trying to create. I felt, however, that I wanted to subject this material to a more ‘in-depth’ acousmatic investigation, so was delighted when Pierre Alexandre Tremblay, one of my former PhD students at Birmingham and now Professor of Music at Huddersfield, asked me to compose 60-minute multi-channel work when I retired – it was the perfect opportunity. A Leverhulme Emeritus Fellowship enabled me to make field recording trips to Australia and Iceland, and supported the development of multi-channel signal processing software; the National Lottery, via an Arts Council England Grants for the Arts award, supported the period of composition. Going / Places is not so much a piece as an ongoing project – what you will hear today is the story so far. I intend to carry on travelling, recording new materials that will undoubtedly demand and deserve to participate in future versions. Going / Places – a ‘rough guide’ I thought it might be useful to offer some ‘signposts’ (this is a project about travel, after all!) – not to tell you what you should be hearing, but simply to enhance and complement your listening experience (and to give you something else to do if you get bored!). The musical moments or ‘scenes’ that you will hear (some clearly delineated, others overlapping) are all completely artificially constructed; some border on reportage or documentary, others are more fanciful – but they all have their origins in specific locations. Telling you what and where these locations might be does not, I hope, detract from the aural experience. We begin and end in Italy, my second home. Between these scenes – one implying imminent motion, the other more restful and tranquil – we flit erratically and unpredictably between other locations in Europe, Iceland, Australasia, North America, North Africa and parts of Asia, and the means of travel (trains, cars, planes, ships, etc) are lurking almost throughout. But the logic of the narrative (if there is one) does not lie in the geographical connections or distances but in the sonic journey: the relationships and contrasts – spectral, rhythmic and spatial – that I had enormous pleasure in discovering within this huge range of material. I hope you enjoy the ride. I owe huge thanks to a large number of people and organisations for their contributions to this work and their assistance in its creation: Thanks to: The National Lottery/Arts Council England, The Leverhulme Foundation, Pierre Alexandre Tremblay and the Huddersfield Contemporary Music Festival, Joe Klingler, Elainie Lillios and Michael Thompson, Alex Harker and his students, James Carpenter, Chris Tarren, Lisa Whistlecroft and Steve Benner, David Hirst – and my wife, Alison Warne.

Marin - Colt No. 4 Derringer (14:00) 3 John Hughes and Sissy Christopoluou - The Brown Book Part 1 Stage 1 (13.03) 1) 1 Eric Tschaeppeler & Riley Bertoncini - Only Fans Only Fans started as a play on words. Sonically, it is a collage of ventilation fans recorded on Eric’s derives through Montreal during the Summer of 2025. Riley poetically explores the link between ventilation fans and OnlyFans in his spoken word contribution to the piece. The poem asks us to consider what the many fans of the city mean for it’s growth and survival, despite how they fade into the background of our daily awareness. Alongside this, Only Fans explores the place of fans online, the type that pay money to see others engage in sexual acts. They both rely on and produce breath, whether it be for fans or as fans. How are the breath of the city and the breaths of those online entertained, what flows of capital and power animate and direct them, and what are the ways they have become commonplace, mundane? Eric Tschaeppeler is a multidisciplinary artist whose career began in 1978 composing and performing music in Montreal’s punk and new wave scene. In 1983, he recorded in Jamaica with Sly and Robbie. During the 1990s, he was based in Berlin, collaborating musically in a city reshaped by migration following the fall of the Iron Curtain. In 2022, he earned a Master’s degree in Photography, exploring the psychological forces that shape the relationship dynamics and behavioural patterns we find ourselves in. Riley Bertoncini is a gay, Indigenous PhD student and multidisciplinary artist working primarily in music and writing. His doctoral research examines natural spaces within cities and how people experience and interact with them. He has also explored sound in previous projects, including a work investigating the space between photographs and the sounds of their creation, which was presented to the public at a university event. http://www.erictschaeppeler.com 2) David A. Marin - Colt No. 4 Derringer Pseudo-historical fiction. 1970s, maybe. America, maybe. A radio broadcast, maybe. The host, James Harlot, is going through a rough patch. Gentrification, global warming, loss and yearning all meet together in a distressing opinion piece, and whilst at the center of the work there is a sort-of cry for help, it does end on a somewhat inspiring note, especially for denizens of a town full of gorgeous museums. The work can be presented in its entirety although a shorter version has also been provided in the link. The accompanying music is my original work. My artist name is damarin, I am based in Bucharest and I am a student of the radio drama. I also release music under the same moniker. I am preoccupied with storyworlds, especially transmedial tales that extend over various forms of media (like Orson Welles' Harry Lime). One day, visiting Glasgow with a lover I became enamored with the city and its many twists and turns and narrow passes. I remember this upward passage squeezed between two buildings, two pigeons intertwined on the heights, over our shadows. The city has remained close to me since then. https://www.instagram.com/damarin1917 3) John Hughes and Sissy Christopoulou - The Brown Book Part 1 Stage 1 A Garden Noir.

(9:49) 7 Noel Molloy - ITS A REAL SNORE (9:59) 4) Water Feature - golden nuthatch A collection of somewhat convincing birdsong and foley created entirely on a small battery-powered drum machine. Many imaginary and fanciful 'species' including the Pond Bather, Golden Nuthatch and Brown Yipper are featured. A long-form sound collage of many species is the central work, and 'close-ups' are also included. In one sense the project is a sincere tribute to bird identification records and tapes one would find in garden centres in the 90s, of which the artists have a large collection. In another sense it is an uncanny objection to a contemporary relationship with nature that romanticises and objectifies it from a safe distance. The sounds have been sampled in records by other artists, used in an extended arrangement for an installation in the Jardin Des Plantes in Paris, presented with narration by a supposed ornithologist, and are played constantly via an internet radio station. Water Feature is a 'collage band' formed of several contributors, creating utopian, absurd and low-fidelity environmental(ist) music. There is a strong reactionary and naive spirit to the project which aims to replace lifeless, boring, synthetic ambient music with an alternative chaotic, colourful and organic musique concrète. Recording and composition revolves around improvisation with cheap gear, tape-splicing and other uncivilised practices and accidents. 3 records (including Various Birds) have been released through the DIY Morsels label/collective. https://variousbirds.net https://morsels.website https://www.instagram.com/morsels.website/ 5) Verandasdr - Decroissance Sexuelle Drawing inspiration from the graphic novel Decroissance Sexuelle by the artist Julie Delporte, I created a sound composition to accompany the text. Born out of a personal need to process abuse that I had suffered, I found that the text and sounds offered a way to explore themes such as indignation, self-protection, and healing, both individually and collectively. They also offered a way to explore themes such as collective care and purification in nature and in ancestral culture. The process did me a lot of good. I hope it will have the same effect on listeners. Verandasdr approaches sound creation for the first time in 2023 in the city of Brussels. Originally from Trentino in Italy, she initially explored field recording, creating soundscapes that blended the sounds of alpine landscapes with the stories of the local people. She then moves on to creating sound accompaniments for poems and texts, and now explores sound projects with a social and educational impact, such as the sound walks in Brussels that highlight the stories of its inhabitants. 6) Craig Hunter - What's your game?

Through a polyphony that integrates the demands of migrants and natural landscapes of the Global South, the project explores how colonialism not only marked bodies and borders, but also territories and ecosystems. The voices of those who resist by migrating merge with the murmur of forests and rivers that still struggle against plunder, denouncing the ongoing environmental pillaging in the name of progress. Artist bio: Fabio Manosalva is a multidisciplinary artist and researcher whose work explores the political and sensory dimensions of sound. Their practice focuses on the intersection of decolonial memory, political ecology, and migratory movements, utilizing deep listening as a tool for social mediation. Through sound installations and acoustic landscapes, Manosalva seeks to visualize the traces of extractivism in the Global South and the resistances emerging from bodies and territories. Their work has been presented in various contemporary art spaces, consolidating a practice that transforms sonic vibration into a space for denunciation and collective reparation.

This project approaches resonance as trace rather than sound. Through a sound installation and photographic studies of piano strings, resonance is examined as a material process that leaves marks, accumulates residues, and undergoes regulation. Sound and image function as parallel archives. What is heard disappears; what remains persists as material inscription. The book on this project functions as an administrative artifact: a record of what remains. Artist bio: My work is located at the intersection of visual art and sound. I merge digital and photographic techniques to create a bridge between the present and the past. I use both data sonification and geophonic recordings. exhibitions : London, Brussels, Antwerp,...

Trains, pachinko parlours, re-recorded radio transmissions, nature and urban ambience are collaged and recomposed throughout the album. All material was recorded in Tokyo, Nagoya, and Osaka. The two tracks Kagayaki and Kodama are both named after trains; their names translate to “glitter” and “echo.” Recording and editing: Stefan Voglsinger Mastering: Aras L. Seyhan Lable: TestToneMusic Nagoya 2025 Artist bio: Stefan Voglsinger *1986 is a musician and performer based in Vienna. He improvises with sine waves and noise generators sent through resonators, objects and membranes. Using open-source instruments for live sampling, he fuses these signals with filtered field recordings gathered during his travels. This practice moves the studio into the environment, unfolding through improvisation with unstable feedback systems and direct interaction with the surrounding context. He focuses on interdisciplinary experiments working with sound and image, developing performances or audiovisual installations including selfbuilt or hacked electronic circuits.

The exhibition combined ceramic artworks by Emily Stapleton-Jefferis that drew from her ongoing research into lichens and a sound installation created for the event. Pioneer species, lichens are among the first species to colonise bare rock. Through chemical weathering they draw minerals from inert objects into the cycles of the living. Emily’s artworks, sculpted from foraged London clay show how lichen exist by presenting them at a macro scale. Taking inspiration from Emily’s sculptures and the histories, ecology and lichen of Nunhead Cemetery, Jamie’s accompanying sound installation transported the viewer into an emergent landscape of unique sounding organisms. Arranged around the inside and at the gates of the space, the diverging and overlapping layers of the sound piece divided the serene inside and chaotic outside of the chapel and cemetery. Artist bio: Jamie Lee (b. Bristol; based in South London) works across sound, moving image, photography, installation and printmaking. His hybrid practice is rooted in the history, context and design details of various sites and questions how places are constructed by the interaction of found objects, bodies and the architecture that contains them. Past projects involve recording the results of performances with cymbals on cliffs along the South Coast of the UK, where huge, monolithic concrete forms known colloquially as ‘Sound Mirrors’ represent the leaps in technological advancement during wartime. His music is released on record label Mortality Tables (2025). jamieleeartist.com https://www.instagram.com/jamie_leeartist/ Domenico De Simone - FOLIAGE Domenico De Simone - FOLIAGE 9 September 2026 2:00 am - 3:00 am FOLIAGE explores the evolving relationship between nature and technology through a one-hour soundscape. Starting from field recordings at a lakeside, familiar sounds of water, wind, and rustling leaves gradually transform, intertwining with subtle digital textures. The composition blurs the line between the organic and artificial, inviting listeners to experience a future acoustic environment where natural and synthetic elements coexist. Layers of sound shift between serenity and disruption, encouraging reflection on the fragility and resilience of ecosystems. By presenting familiar sounds in unexpected forms, FOLIAGE turns listening into an act of awareness, highlighting the delicate balance between preservation and transformation in the auditory world. Designed for radio transmission, the piece emphasizes immersive spatial experience within a stereo field, allowing the listener to perceive the unfolding soundscape as a living, evolving environment.

The collective comes together on the first Friday of every month at 3:02pm ET using custom-made software. Some sessions don't have a description and the one on October 3th doesn't have even a title. However, some have a more detail description as in The Spiral: The record groove or a strip of tape moves forward by circling, slipping into another layer each time. That coiling motion echoes how time forms paths that don’t quite repeat. The spiral frames the way patterns return at different scales, from tiny biological curves to movements that shift light, air, and weather. A shared structure keeps resurfacing and shows how things grow and reorganize, how memory drifts, and how repetition comes back slightly off axis, opening another turn. Artist bio: The Conduction Series is a collaborative live radio broadcast produced by sound and transmission artists across the Americas on Wave Farm’s WGXC 90.7-FM Radio for Open Ears in New York’s Upper Hudson Valley. Artists names are: Betsey Biggs, August Black, Peter Courtemanche, Florencia Curci, Jeff Economy, Anna Friz, Jimmy Garver, Maximilian Goldfarb, Virginia Mantinian, and Rodrigo Ríos Zunino. The Conduction Series is syndicated on Radio MonteAudio in Montevideo, Uruguay, Radio Tsonami in Valparaíso, Chile, Radio CASo in Buenos Aires, Argentina, CITR FM in Vancouver, Canada, New Adventures in Sound Art in Ontario, Canada, and on Radio 1190 in Boulder/Denver, USA. https://conduction.wavefarm.org/ Radiophrenia Shorts 15 Radiophrenia Shorts 15 9 September 2026 4:00 am - 5:00 am Radiophrenia Shorts 7 Radiophrenia Shorts 7 9 September 2026 5:00 am - 6:00 am Radiophrenia Shorts 8 Radiophrenia Shorts 8 9 September 2026 6:00 am - 7:00 am Radiophrenia Shorts 22 Radiophrenia Shorts 22 9 September 2026 7:00 am - 8:00 am Radiophrenia Shorts 5A Radiophrenia Shorts 5A 9 September 2026 8:00 am - 8:30 am 1 Sara Maino - When the drops meet the mountains (4:05) 2 Dariusz Mazurowski – Excerpts from Metropolis Balticum (Urbana Landscape) (21:00) 3 Geert Vlieger - Echoes of Peace in South Sudan (05:09) 1) Sara Maino - When the drops meet the mountains A surreal blue-hour journey unfolds as a displaced spirit wanders through the temporal landscape of an isolated hill in the Apennines. Guided by a thin wire dividing a field, where faint and fragile raindrops rest, the spirit pauses to observe the layers that slowly reveal themselves to the eye: a chain of droplets, a chain of mountains, a chain of birdsong. Physical forms and drifting sounds dissolve into a sequence of memories—echoes of past encounters where water meets stone, movement meets stillness. Intrigued by this encounter, the spirit returns home to pose a fundamental question: “What happens when the drops meet the mountains?” Where water meets the mountain begins life and danger alike—a threshold of transformation, of new currents, and of motion yet to unfold. Sara Maino is an Italian sound and audio-visual artist, poet and performer, film and theatre director, and a community-engaged researcher. http://www.saramaino.it https://www.instagram.com/maino9800 https://www.facebook.com/mainosara/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/sara-maino-66285738/ 2) Dariusz Mazurowski – Excerpts from Metropolis Balticum (Urbana Landscape) Water, Air, Streets and People are parts of the composition Metropolis Balticum (Urbana Landscape) – this is a soundscape of Gdansk, my hometown. It was entirely created from field recordings that I made within the urban space, visiting various locations and searching for intriguing events with musical qualities. During the field recordings I visited many places – both those well-known and frequently visited by tourists, and many that even the citizens themselves often know little about. Each had its own acoustic aura, atmosphere and sound universe. Each of the eight parts of the composition consists of multiple phrases layered on top of each other, creating a sonic tapestry. As a result of these techniques, some parts resemble a journey through the city, with smooth transitions between layers and locations, while others are more distinctly musical impressions blurring the lines between soundscape and concrete music. Dariusz Mazurowski is a Polish electroacoustic music composer, born and currently residing in Gdansk. While the majority of his compositional activity has focused on acousmatic works, he has also composed instrumental music in conjunction with electronics. His works combine analog instruments with the sonic potential of digital technology and computers. His compositional approach is dynamic in that it involves live electronics and live sound diffusion across multi-speaker systems. Mazurowski’s music has been broadcast by various radio stations all over the world, and he has performed at festivals and other events in Europe, North America, South America and Asia. https://deemstudio.com/ https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100086282450366 http://www.youtube.com/user/DeeMstudio 3) Geert Vlieger - Echoes of Peace in South Sudan Emmanuel remembers how he as a child learned to warn people for in coming wild animals - especially elephants - using a certain whistle technique. When asked, Emmanuel couldn’t reproduce the whistle - which isn’t surprising, as for most of his life, dangerous animals were no longer a threat. The 21-year-long war in Sudan, filled with gunfire and very restricted freedom to move, didn’t just force the people to flee the country - it also drove the animals away to safer neighbouring countries like Uganda. But when peace came, elephants were spotted again and Emmanuel probably regrets not having practised more. Geert Vlieger is a Dutch audio documentary maker and musician living on the outskirts of Amsterdam. He has a love for stories about communities that live with nature. And while the Netherlands isn’t the best place for that - although he tries, living in a wooden house on the shore of Holland’s biggest lake - he occasionally sinks his teeth into projects where people inspire him with their way of living somewhere else in the world. https://www.geertvlieger.nl/ https://www.instagram.com/geertvlieger/ Radiophrenia Shorts 5B Radiophrenia Shorts 5B 9 September 2026 8:30 am - 9:00 am 1 Malu Hatoum - Refluxus 1 or Ruminat Beat (6:40) 2 Owen Duff - The Meaning of Alexa (Ambient) 1 - How do you feel (11:59) 3 BBB_ - Ontology of Interdependent Matter (11:30) 1) Malu Hatoum - Refluxus 1 or Ruminat Beat The composition Refluxus 1 - or Ruminate Beat is based on the indigestible feeling and condition of our society. It physically conveys the idea that if we were ruminant animals with five stomach cavities, we might have the stomach for this society. For this composition, only two sound sources were used and modified: the conversation of two deer, which are ruminants, and the author's voice. Malu Hatoum Sound artist, performer, producer, singer, and writer, she currently researches transspecies communication through the body-voice. She has held solo and group exhibitions in Latin America and Europe. 2024 - PhD student in Contemporary Arts Studies, Fluminense Federal University (UFF), Brazil; 2019-21 Master's degree in Sound Art, University of Barcelona, Spain; 2012-14, Undergraduate degree in Psychology, University of São Paulo (USP), Brazil.

I also included audio of what the smart speaker recorded during the duet from Amazon’s servers. With this piece I wanted to evoke in sound the space between human expression, represented by my freely improvised playing and sung questions, and AI’s understanding of it. I also wanted to explore the blurring lines between humans and the technology we have invented, and to play with the dichotomy between our ideas of freedom and a digital capitalism which has promised to deliver that freedom, but has arguably removed our liberty to reject capitalism. Owen Duff works across multiple artistic fields, from his work as a singer-songwriter with many albums and videos released over 20 years, to his work making music for screen such as the Queerty-nominated series Kissing Walls. As a sonic artist Owen was Highly Commended in the 'Composed with Sound' category at Sound of the Year Awards in 2023, created the sound art/poetry collaboration 'Ghost Dance' with poet Emily Berry, which was a featured premiere on BBC's Late Junction in 2024, and had work selected for an In The Dark listening event the same year. http://www.owenduff.co.uk http://www.instagram.com/owenduffmusic owenduff.bandcamp.com 3) BBB_ - Ontology of Interdependent Matter Ontology of Interdependent Matter is part of the Songs of Cyborgeoisie project by BBB_. A mesmerising PC gaming experience and audio-visual journey through a sci-fi universe, populated by technological, organic and fantastic beings, such as the Queer Feminist AI, Raving Narcissistic Algorithm and Other Intelligences, who tell of their sorrows and hopes, in order to heal human imagination from the pervading techno-dystopian narratives.

The sound work is punctuated with recorded chatter and discussion from the recording booth, a gesture to what can occur through collaboration. Shhh is based on a series of texts, each at varying points in their process. They are experiments in overlaps, thresholds, and skirting around the edges. Objects appear and reappear in different voices, whilst sounds clatter and whistle through adjacent rooms. This is a translation of text to sound. The sound piece is 33 minutes long and is a combination of recorded voice, field recordings and instrumental music. Artist bio: Will Farmer, Esther Hesketh, Maisie Wills, Emma Mortimer, Toby Üpson, Beth Emsden, and Sophia Kelly-Keegan are Art Writers, currently on the Art Writing course at Glasgow School of Art. Their collective practices explore a shared curiosity of the thresholds of form, objects, text and landscape. Soft Shell Broadcast is an iterative process of translating text to sound. It incorporates performances, recordings and readings. Website/social links https://theyellowpaper.org.uk Anamaria Pravicencu & Manja Ristić - Gardens of Christiane. The Palestine from before. Anamaria Pravicencu & Manja Ristić - Gardens of Christiane. The Palestine from before. 9 September 2026 9:30 am - 10:00 am In the shade of Palestinian gardens, memory once bloomed — fragrant with olive groves and the quiet gestures of care. These were spaces of closeness, of which Christiane Dabdoub Nasser recalls inviting us into her childhood and Palestinian culture from another time, where the Mediterranean breathed through shared rituals of tending and living in harmony with the land. Rooted in practices of cultivation, refuge, and sensory proximity, such intimacy has been systematically disrupted by the colonial project of the Israeli state, which reconfigured land into instruments of control and dispossession. Today, the relational fabric of Palestinian landscapes lies fractured — yet the soil remembers. Through powerful storytelling, family history, and enduring friendship, this piece gathers what remains: the rustle of leaves under siege, the echo of footsteps in forbidden groves, the persistence of tenderness in a terrain marked by erasure. It traces how ecological and cultural memory endure despite spatial fragmentation and political violence. Manja Ristić engages with sounds gathered from war-torn landscapes and towns across the former Yugoslavia, from WWII memorial sites to intoxicated rivers — bearing witness to how the land carries its wounds in silence, while the echoes of war still tremble through every pore of the heart.

It is based on folk tunes from Ukrainian Transcarpathian region, that used to be the way of communication between highlanders working on the mountain fields. Together with one of the most unpredictable sound sources - audio feedback from no input mixer - and live sampling, the piece reassembles the mysticism, richness of the soundscape and the beauty (rather importance) of repetitiveness. There also was an unpredicted result of this experiment - at the certain point, the mixer started “catching” frequencies from samples, and its random glitches sounded like a parody on the melody of the flute. Kateryna Ziabliuk is a Kyiv-born, Krakow-based sound artist, multi-instrumentalist and improviser educated at the music academies in Krakow, Kyiv and Milano. She performs across Europe with her band Hilarious Disasters and the all-female group O.N.E., and researches Ukrainian musical modernism, Ukrainian and Polish folk music, contemporary improvisation and electroacoustic techniques. Katrù is her artistic identity, dedicated to reshaping Ukrainian folk music through free improvisation and experimental electronics. As an artist who has been educating across Europe and the USA, her work deeply reflects the experience of migration — balancing nostalgia, cultural preservation, and the constant process of assimilation. https://linktr.ee/katruziabliuk https://instagram.com/katrututu 2) Mathias Guilbaud – Roar My city roars. Like yours, it is constantly changing, driven by silent, powerful forces. Beneath my feet, an invisible metro line cuts through ruins — neighborhoods, dead ends, streets. Construction sites, machines, bodies in motion. Clatter, tremors, textures: raw, living, untamed sounds. I walk with microphones, gathering these sounds not to freeze them, but to move through them — to hear what, amid the chaos, tries to speak differently. These noises become stories, presences that awaken a numb urban imagination. Reactivating it is a form of situated resistance, rooted in places, cracks, and transformation. By letting these often-dismissed sounds resonate, construction sites stop being mere breaches in the city and become breaths. Giving voice to places in transition, reclaiming through listening a power over what slips away. Roar is a sound piece built entirely from field recordings produced by Semi Silent. Mathias Guilbaud is a Toulouse-based sound artist working with field recordings and acousmatic composition. His work explores the sonic textures of urban transformation, the poetics of construction sites, and the intimate intersections between public spaces and personal narratives. Through his electroacoustic pieces, he seeks to awaken new ways of listening to cities in flux, revealing the hidden layers beneath everyday noise. A multidisciplinary artist, Mathias collaborates with performing arts companies, community radios, and film projects. https://mathiasguilbaud.fr/ @mathias.guilbaud Radiophrenia Shorts 37B Radiophrenia Shorts 37B 9 September 2026 10:30 am - 11:00 am 1 Andrew Paine - (Tectonic) Notes For 3 Cassette Recorders (7:00) 2 Panayiotis Kokoras - Useless Box (11:00) 3 jonesy jones - woolf worldings - pomona (0:44) 4 BORȘ - Murmuration of crumbles (8:35) 5 Andre Perim/ Eye P - Life Insists (3:09) 1) Andrew Paine - (Tectonic) Notes For 3 Cassette Recorders I recently found the notes I had been writing prior to my performance at Tectonics 2019. I thought it might be interesting to record these notes ‘live’ into three vintage cassette recorders simultaneously. I had original mics for each of them but no real idea how effective they might be. In addition, I used vintage, second hand tape to make the recordings. The results are (to my ears) very satisfying. Difference in quality and on-going degradation of recordings are clearly marked. No FX have been added, I’ve simply moved the vocal around a little, to make it more interesting. The Tectonics performance itself, featured bowed guitar, morse code, SW Radio, Cassettes, iPod, & spoken word. I have added the morse code from that performance to this recording. Andrew Paine is a Glasgow based musician: his work ranging from solo voice, howling guitars, gentle piano interludes, radio, oblique electronics and wherever he likes in between. He initially broke cover collaborating with Richard Youngs in their progressive rock group project Ilk. Following their second album “Canticle” (VHF, 2005), he became particularly prolific, releasing many collaborative albums with Youngs as well as several solo projects. Current duties extend to ambient alter-ego ‘Lord Tobacco’ and duo, The Domestiques (w/ Kevin McCarvel); guitars in tune with the energies of 70s rock & Japanese psych and electronics akin to the 80’s industrial experimenters. https://andrewpaine.bandcamp.com/ https://lordtobacco.bandcamp.com/ 2) Panayiotis Kokoras - Useless Box Useless Box appears as an ordinary wooden container whose resonant knocks unfold into an unpredictable sonic world. Drawing on the myth of Pandora’s Box, the piece reveals how the seemingly harmless can unleash chaos, oscillating between the mechanical and the organic, the playful and the ominous. Integrating performance, robotics, sound design, and theatricality, the work employs spectromorphological and transcontextual transformations to create a surreal drama. Quotations from Julius Fučík’s Entry of the Gladiators frame the piece, reinforcing irony and illusion. Beneath its playful surface, Useless Box explores uncertainty, paradox, and agency, transforming the box into a liminal space of sonic and philosophical tension. Panayiotis Kokoras is an internationally acclaimed composer and computer music innovator, currently Regents Professor of Composition and Director of the Center for Experimental Music and Intermedia (CEMI) at the University of North Texas. His music treats sound as the sole structural element of form and is articulated through his concept of Holophonic Musical Texture, in which each independent sound contributes equally to the total. His work integrates electroacoustic composition, physical computing, robotics, spatial sound, and Music Information Retrieval–based strategies. Kokoras has received major international awards, commissions, and fellowships from institutions including the Guggenheim Foundation, the Fromm Foundation at Harvard, IRCAM, https://www.facebook.com/pkokoras https://www.instagram.com/panayiotiskokoras/ https://www.panayiotiskokoras.com/ 3) jonesy jones - woolf worldings - Pomona old memory hits a ghost artery sparking a l c h e m y This is the first dive in to the instinctive otherness of the expansive worldings of sounds.

The catalogue is made up of several dozen sound recordings featuring squeaky, creaking, screeching or otherwise noisy swing sets. The reasons for swing noise are various – loose connections or fasteners, aging of the materials used in the construction of the swing, weather conditions affecting them, as well as the load and overload to which the swing is subjected. Although most of the recordings feature swings that only minimally differ in terms of mechanics, construction and materials used, their noise is never identical, providing a sound testimony to the environment in which the swing is placed. Swinging, photos – Ada Ruszkiewicz; Idea, recording, editing and mixing – Ernests Vilsons. Artist bio: Ernests Vilsons is a Latvian composer living in Rīga. He writes music for acoustic instruments and electronic means, creates sound installations and performances, and collects field recordings. He is interested in harmony, time, silence, chance, representation and transcription. E. Vilsons studied at the Institute of Sonology at the Royal Conservatoire in The Hague. His master's research project “Well-Structured Vocalizations: An Attempt To Imitate Birdsong” was awarded the Konrad Boehmer Foundation Prize in 2020.

If you have met her, she probably recorded you. http://www.musicappreciationrecs.com/ https://vanessarossetto.bandcamp.com/ Louisa Fairclough - The world went out of tune with itself Louisa Fairclough - The world went out of tune with itself 9 September 2026 12:30 pm - 1:00 pm The sound piece draws from a written testimony in which I have endeavoured to convey the distinct logic of my thought processes and the associations I was making during a lengthy psychosis. The monologue is non-chronological and echoes my fragmented memories. My spoken voice overlays a digital soundtrack in which I have woven together vocal pieces and music that I made on my computer whilst experiencing mental distress: an archive of that time. Artist bio: Treading the backward path is part of a wider auto-ethnographic project exploring Louisa Fairclough’s lived experience of psychosis funded by an Arts Council England DYCP award, and will be performed at Figments: Madness, Health & Creativity conference at University of Glasgow, June 2026. Louisa’s solo show, Mental Falls, was at Danielle Arnaud Gallery (2024) and MIRROR Arts University Plymouth (2025). To coincide with Mental Health Awareness Week, Louisa curated Welcome to my World, a weekend programme of artists' screenings, performances and talks at the Arnolfini in Bristol in May 2025. Louisa is co-founder of BEEF (Bristol Experimental & Expanded Film).

Moving from station to station, she encounters “hidden speakers,” a word that resonates as both loudspeakers and disembodied voices. These "acousmatic" announcements (relentless directions, train schedules, simulated birdsong guiding passengers to platforms and exits) form an omnipresent sonic architecture designed to assist navigation, including for the visually impaired. Amid this constant flow of information, the artist contemplates her own life path, asking, “What’s next?” The phrase "tsugi wa" becomes both practical instruction and existential question. The walk culminates at a "suikinkutsu" in Kyoto, where resonant drops of water evoke intimacy and presence, contrasting with the mechanical mediation of recorded sound. Suspended between natural acoustics and technological voices, the work explores displacement, time, and the search for orientation. Headphones are recommended for full immersion. Laura Romero is a freelance audio artist and researcher from Spain. She creates audio design and storytelling projects for radio, podcasts, and sound installations. Her work intertwines bioacoustics, cultural heritage, orality, soundscapes, and poetry, with a strong commitment to preserving memory across diverse territories. She has received First Prize at the Grand Prix Nova International Radio Drama Festival (2021), UK International Audio Drama (2022), and the Bronze Award for Best Documentary at Prix Marulic (2023). Holding a PhD in Communication and Sound Studies, she works across artistic and academic contexts and regularly organizes public listening sessions in Iberian Peninsula. http://www.laura-romero.com https://www.instagram.com/lauraromerovall https://www.facebook.com/laurahum https://vimeo.com/lauraromerovall 2) Son Hanson - The Signal The Signal is a found recording of a shortwave radio broadcast. It initially appears to be an experimental guided meditation that transmits subtle electromagnetic tones intended to ''awaken the inner child'', but as the tape circulates, listeners have reported unsettling experiences that linger beyond the act of listening. This piece draws on Michael Persinger's ''God Helmet'' experiments, which used weak electromagnetic fields to alter perception and induce the sensation of another presence, as well as the occult history of Electronic Voice Phenomena (EVP), often associated with radio transmission and the belief that the voices of the deceased can surface through electronic media. This Signal blurs the boundary between signal and spirit, leaving it uncertain whether the voices emerge from the mind, the medium, or something beyond. Son Hanson is a documentarian based in Montreal. Her work explores space, liminality, and the fluid boundaries between self and environment. 3) Luba Diduch - Angels' Voices in Pine Needles This recording was made in two phases. My intention was to explore relationships between drawing and audio recording. 'Angels' Voices in Pine Needles' was composed using scanned drawings that I had made using pine needles as drawing instruments. I experimented with changes in pitch and duration in an audio program when I converted the drawings into audio tracks. A few happy accidents occurred when working on this project. Through experimentation, I discovered that adjusting different levels and pitches revealed angelic and otherworldly sounds. Eerily, the 'angel' sounds seemed to echo through the scanned pine needle shapes as though they were singing and taking breaths between notes. My art practice explores notions of responsiveness that evolve within expanding and transforming architectonic schemes in and around artworks. These expansions are reflected in my collaborations with audiences as well as in my own responses and perspectives. Individual and participatory projects that explore the ways in which environments such as the world’s forests can be seen as creatively productive spaces. This is of particular interest in my practice as an artist who often works in the wilderness of Alberta as well other locations in Canada. My ongoing projects involve the creation of sonic recordings and compositions, drawings, and interactive digital https://www.instagram.com/lubartist/ 4) Cristian Fierbințeanu – Total This composition was created by Cristian Fierbințeanu in the frame of SONIC SPORTS, a project produced by SEMI SILENT in 2024 (unreleased) SONIC SPORTS invited sound artists into new territories of exploration involving field research, dialog with athletes and support teams, field recording, as well as intimate or fictional writing, for a series of sound and radio art pieces. Presented in listening sessions of authored works, a national open call and a vocal expression workshop followed by a performance, the project proposes a sensitive reading of the role of sport in our lives and the intimate relationships we create with our bodies and the communities involved, from the very close-up, a breath or heartbeat away, through the perspective of the spectator in the stands or the football of children behind the block, through memories, histories and personal recollections. Cristian Fierbinteanu is an independent artist, member of art-pop group Fierbinteanu, active in music, sound & video art. As part of Fierbinteanu, he has performed on European scenes, including Berlin Konzerthaus, and released records via independent labels.

Folding represents the convergence of layers, the bending and intertwining of forms that give rise to new dimensions of existence. It embodies the fluidity of change, the inherent beauty found in the folding of time, space, and perception. What was once flat and constrained now expands and flourishes. This form of folding doesn't signify resignation, but rather embodies a transformative process, embracing change and growth. There is wonder in contemplation, and this work explores the possibilities that emerge when we embrace the nonlinear nature of existence. Dr. Nat Grant is a composer and sound artist working on unceded Wurundjeri country, producing works for live performance, recording and broadcast, digital arts, and community arts. Nat’s work focuses on the creation of multidisciplinary and longform musical compositions, performance events, and installations using traditional and graphic notation as well as improvisation. natgrantmusic.com @natgrantmusic 2) Borja Flames & Barbara Dang - SOY TIERRA (I am earth / I am land) - Identidad / Identity (poem by Agata Navalon - Spain) Barbara Dang (France) plays prepared piano.

This collection of pieces go under the name SOY TIERRA (I am earth / I am land), and are based on contemporary latin-american and spanish poems. The poems explore the relationship between the body and its environment and society, ranging from metaphysical introspection to earthly and cosmic thought, and narratives of interpersonal relationships, love, and desire—the driving forces of life and purpose. Spanish composer and singer Borja Flames lives in Normandy, France. Has published several solo albums, and collaborated with Marion Cousin, John Greaves, Areski Belkhacem and many others. Pianist, composer, and improviser Barbara Dang lives in Lille, France. Has worked with Sophie Agnel, Ensemble Dedalus, Tom Johnson, Radu Malfatti, Michael Pisaro, Halory Goerger, David Boinnard.

Angela Moreno Cascante is a Colombian sound artist and filmmaker. She is interested in experimental research creations processes related to live arts. Her work gathers art, technology and ecology from conceptual and sensory approaches. At the momento, Angela is distributing Entrada al bosquE, a performative sound installation which explores an interspecies relationship with Oyster mushrooms through contemplation, care and nourishment. https://www.instagram.com/altera_nm/ https://www.instagram.com/entradaalbosque/ Lost in Transmission 3 Lost in Transmission 3 9 September 2026 2:00 pm - 2:30 pm Sonia Levy and Lucy A. Sames - Dark, Sloshing Sonia Levy and Lucy A. Sames - Dark, Sloshing 9 September 2026 2:30 pm - 3:00 pm 'Dark, Sloshing' is an audio work by Sonia Levy and Lucy A. Sames created in response to the heavily industrialised and neglected riparian worlds of Silverthorne Lane in East Bristol. The composition weaves field recordings and voice, moving above and below water as it follows canals, bridges, electric grids, train lines, and highways. It reveals muted ecologies that interrogate the altered dynamics of earthly and urban processes, reflecting the city’s imperial, infrastructural, and ecological entanglements. Commissioned by Gingko Projects, 'Dark, Sloshing' forms part of a larger project led by artists Rachael Champion and Jonathan Trayte. Artist bios: Sonia Levy is an artist filmmaker with a Berber-Polish background. Her work, marked by site-specific and interdisciplinary inquiries, delves into the implications of Western expansionist and extractive logics, exploring how these forces manifest in the transformation and governance of hydrosocial worlds. Lucy A. Sames is a curator, writer, and researcher based in rural South Wales. Her research proposes a feminist, queer and posthuman concept of ‘excess’ modulated by the materiality and metaphor of the liquid, to develop disruptive, embodied, queer, collective practice.

Distances are taken through temples submerged by tourists in frantic meditative activity, then slipping out into chaotic countryside of motorcycles and insects in chorus. Night sounds like a stone. Galloping rain, slimy, slapping with swarming waves Time to return. Emanuele Costantini is a Director, Photographer, Sound Designer, and Producer of sound-based films and art installations, Involved in a wide area of media sound and industry, born in Florence (Italy), and British naturalised, living in London (UK ). His first attempt in production became the award-winning documentary “GRA: Graffiti Roman Art” followed by few immersive installations, broadcasted on sound art radio shows (Framework, BBC3 Late Junction) and events such as Design Week in Bangkok, to name one. He keeps lending his sound skills to the film industry, getting involved in documentaries, commercials, and films while progressing with other productions. http://www.ecsound.net 2) williwaw - And still the drone of the bus There is a particular sense of doom in riding the bus. Will it ever get there? Will we ever get there? Where is there? There has been scant reflection on the geo-existential dread of bus riding, save for a poem by suffragette V. H. Friedlaender from 1922, Bus Ride In A Fog: "...And still the drone of the bus, Like a coma, a swoon, a drug..." Here, through some archaic mathematical processes and mistakes, we let the bus speak and swoon. We hear the fog. williwaw routinely explores the aesthetics of technological failure through the medium of heavily amplified ’ukulele. http://www.donkeyscratch.com 3) Christian Rosales Fonseca - AKEI In Akei, I bring together two distinct yet interwoven sonic worlds. The work begins with recordings I made from a historical phonograph from the early twentieth century. I spent several hours with the device, exploring its mechanics, experimenting with different playback speeds, and closely listening to the specific sounds produced in the processes of recording and reproduction. I did not treat these so called “noises” as interference, but as sonic traces of the technical and colonial practices through which voices and songs were once transferred into European archives. I place these sounds in dialogue with recordings I made in close collaboration with the Kággaba community in the Sierra Nevada de Gonawindúa, Colombia. Recorded in the sacred territory, they reveal unexpected resonances with the phonograph’s rotating textures. Through Akei, I explore the friction between colonial regimes of preservation and a territory in which sound remains relational and alive. Christian Rosales Fonseca (1993, Bogotá, Colombia) is a composer, improviser, and electric guitar performer based in Bremen, Germany. His artistic practice is situated at the intersection of contemporary composition, free improvisation, and transdisciplinary artistic research, with a strong emphasis on political, social, and decolonial perspectives. He is currently a PhD candidate in the binational Artistic Research Program between the University of the Arts Bremen and the University of Groningen. His doctoral research examines Indigenous sound ontologies and colonial phonographic archives, focusing on early twentieth-century recordings of the Kággaba community and the cultural practice of "pagamento". https://crofon.com/ https://crofon.bandcamp.com Instagram: @_crofon_ 4) Andrew B - Nanjing Dong Lu 87.5 MHz Andrew is a Canadian electronic musician living in China who integrates chaotic, analog circuits to create unpredictable performances. This piece uses radio as both a source of audio and control signals. Captured opportunistically in Shanghai on the Nanjing Dong Lu walking street, the recording documents the live interaction between radio signal, performer, and chaotic electronic circuits. The radio signal is the basis of the sounds used, and is also slowed down through frequency dividing circuits to serve as control signals for other parts of the audio processing chain. Every moment reflects the performer's response to the signal being received in an attempt to shape it into a sound event. 5) cecilia moodz - Una ciudad Una ciudad is a three-minute piece that proposes an immersive sonic experience where space becomes territory. Using recognizable sounds without electronic processing — raw, direct, and without effects — the work builds a moving sonic architecture. Spatialization is the central element, but not just technicque, the sensation: sounds do not simply happen, they inhabit, circulate, and move, like bodies inside a living city. Each sound keeps its identity, allowing the listener to orient themselves within this sonic landscape, and at the same time, to get lost in it. Rather than describing a specific city, the piece suggests the idea of a city as an organism: layers, paths, encounters, and distances revealed through listening. Una ciudad does not represent a place; it activates it I am a transdisciplinary artist and researcher whose work moves between sound, image, and writing. My practice takes a sensitive approach to memory, space, and time, focusing on processes of resonance, forgetting, tenderness, and error as creative forces. I am currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Documentary Film, where I continue to explore the relationship between listening, image-making, and narrative as forms of inquiry and artistic research. https://soundcloud.com/cecilia-moodz https://vimeo.com/ceciliamooodz 6) Coims – FONNEL FONNEL WAS PERFORMED AND RECORD LIVE WITH BOTH PERFORMERS LISTENING VIA HEADPHONES TO TWO DIFFERENT RADIO STATIONS SIMULTANEOUSLY. THE OUTCOME CAPTURING UNIQUE FEEL AND CHOATIC VIBE. Coims are an experimental sound duo, often using modern percussion and fretted instruments to create primitive sonic freedom. https://coims.bandcamp.com/ https://www.instagram.com/coims_sound/ Kate Donovan - Portal Kate Donovan - Portal 9 September 2026 5:00 pm - 5:30 pm One of the world's largest collections of wax cylinder audio recordings resides in Berlin, at the much contested space of the Humboldt Forum. The sounds are held there in a state of stasis, while machines work to control the climate of the room and keep the temperature and humidity stable. This live audio transmission is a way to create a kind of energetic portal, allowing an institutional space that houses dormant recordings to disperse out of the walls and onto the airwaves, or perhaps rather to allow listeners inside these walls from afar. Artist bio: Kate Donovan is an artist and researcher based in Berlin working on and with radio, listening, ecological thinking, and the more-than-human. Much of her practice is together with others and circles around knowledge exchange and experimentation. She was part of the research group SENSING: the Knowledge of Sensitive Media (Potsdam), with a PhD project on "Radio as Relation", and is a fellow of the 4A_Lab Berlin, Institute for Art History, Florence - Max-Planck-Institut. She is also the co-founder of Radio Otherwise, an artistic research project motivated by the many knots which art, knowledge-making/sharing and communication encounter.

For nearly 10 years now, right in front of our house has been a forest of evergreen broad-leaved trees in the satoyama. I can observe the lives of creatures other than humans there. During the rainy season, moss clogged our gutters, and the sound of raindrops falling through them began to create an unpredictable rhythm. I played the electric piano in my room while listening to the rhythm of the raindrops. My family recorded it on Zoom. When the “Higurashi” cicadas start chirping, the rainy season ends. It’s always like that. Collecting the sounds of my home and jamming with them soothes my sound-filled mind. The snoring of a friend who sleeps well at our house sounds like a didgeridoo player offering a prayer for a good night’s sleep. There are moments like my solo performance at YoshimiO at Shiso-kan, a place dear to us. And sometimes I go to a studio with people I trust and pour out my desire to bring all these sounds together. I love singing while channeling my breath through a flute—sometimes a KHEAN, sometimes an ARGOZA. わたしたちの家で過ごすことが好きです。もう10年ちかく家の目の前には里山における照葉樹林の森があります。人以外の生き物の暮らしを観察することもできます。梅雨のあいだ、家の雨どいに苔がつまり、雨どいを通って落ちる雨垂れ音は予測のつかないリズムを刻みだしました。うちの雨垂れビートを聴きながら部屋の中でエレピを弾きました。家のひとはZOOMで記録しました。ひぐらしが鳴き始めると梅雨はおわります。いつもそう。家の音の収集とその音たちとのセッションは音にあふれたわたしの脳を癒します。うちでよく寝れた友人のいびきは良き睡眠がとれますようにと祈りのディジリドゥー奏者のようです。わたしたちの大事な場所、四三館でのYoshimiO solo演奏など。そしてときどき気の知れたスタジオにいき、それらをまとめたいという想いを吐き出します。わたしはわたしの呼吸を笛に通しながら歌うことが好きです。ときには KHEANに、ときにはARGOZAに。 YoshimiO _ Voice, Ereki Bass Tanpura, Keyboard Synthesizer, Electric Piano, Effects, Khean, Argoza, Minmin, Percussion HAMA _ Reyong, Gangza Kawamura Kohey-Sai _ Gangza Engineered by Kabamix Sound collected by Ooido Syoujou mixed by YoshimiO big thanks to shisokan ”四三館” A Radiophrenia commission produced with the support of Creative Scotland. 1.

From the macroscopic to the minute, between density and rarefaction, between the clarity of the soundscape and the analytical nature of micro-editing. The piece is the result of research and a residency at the Groupe de Musique Expérimentale de Marseille (GMEM) in 2024. Artist bio: M.F. is an Italian musician, performer and composer working in the field of electroacoustic music. His acousmatic and audiovisual works have been featured at festivals across Europe and internationally.

Using algorithmic composition, the sounds are presented and deconstructed by their original signal. Sofía Matus Cancino is a Mexican artist based in Phoenix, Arizona, exploring the convergences of visual music, embodied sound, and algorithmic composition. Her work proposes environments shaped by the ominous, the intimate, and the displacements of contemporary life. Her work has been featured at SEAMUS, ARS Electronica, Visiones Sonoras, PRISMS, SPLICE, among others, and performed by ensembles including Bent Frequency, ACME, and the Low Frequency Trio. Matus has received awards in Data Sonification, Composition, and Artistic Career Achievement.

This is the sound of its absence. There is a hole in this sonic texture. The contour of the hole follows the coastline of a fictitious continent. The form of this silent negativity shapes the gestures in this piece. Susanne Skog (Sweden) works with sound art, composition, and text, drawing on experimental radio, radio drama, documentary practices, and narrative art forms. Her sonic works are built from field recordings gathered around the world and transformed into spatial, immersive compositions that explore friction, resonance, and perception. She is also an arts journalist and editor at Nutida musik and a teacher at the Electronic Music Studio (EMS) in Stockholm. She co-runs the project halffloor and is also part of the team behind the digital platform radioart.se. Her work has been presented internationally at festivals, art spaces, and in radio contexts. susanneskog.se 4) Stephane Borrel - La Grenouille de Lycie (The Frog From Lycia) For example, it would be The Smiling Spider by Odilon Redon (Musée d'Orsay, Paris) or The Cyclops Polyp (National Gallery of Art, Washington): works which, from simple and realistic elements, make the strange or bizarre emerge – but without mockery, without sensationalism, without trying to be frightening; a kind of imaginary, “fantastic” animality, in the romantic sense of the term. In a somewhat similar way, La Grenouille de Lycie (The Frog of Lycia) takes advantage of a young woman's rather peculiar laughter to give it a curious turn, and imply that the grainy and staccato squeak of the voice would be a croak. The title, a nod to a myth taken from Ovid’s Metamorphoses, thus suggests that the character would be both woman and frog. In the coda, one hears an authentic pelophylax ridibundus (“laughing frog”). Stéphane Borrel lives and works in Lyon, France. He writes for different ensembles and diverse electronics, ranging from chamber music (Facétie, Extinction, Toutes choses ont leur saison) to the symphony orchestra (Faits de masque, Main-d’oeuvre), from mixed music (Orée, Prospectus in musica, Toute la mer) to sound installations (Smartland-Divertimento, Bascules) or acousmatic pieces (the Laughing Tonalities cycle). He was the prize-winner of the Phonurgia Nova scholarship in 2009, Hervé Dugardin Prize of the SACEM in 2013, and ULJUS electroacoustic composition competition 2024 (Smederevo, Serbie). He teaches composition at Conservatoire de Lyon (C.R.R. de Lyon). https://www.stephaneborrel.fr https://www.instagram.com/stephaneborrelmus/ 5) Moniek Darge – MaltaSoundies The island of Malta, surrounded by the Mediterranean Sea, is extremely vulnerable to climate change. This threat is depicted in the soundscape MaltaSoundies realized in 2025. Moniek Darge Moniek Darge is active as composer, violinist, performer and audio artist. She has built light- and soundsculptures, installations, musical instruments and for many years has been constructing a series of alternative music boxes, with which she also performs. Darge has specialised in both soundscapes and live-art performances in which visual and musical aspects are combined and in interactional improvisation on violin. Since 1970 she has performed around the world and has been active on stage, first with the Logos Ensemble, then with Logos Duo, and the M&M robot ensemble. She also founded Logos Women Ensemble. https://www.logosfoundation.org/index-mon.html Radiophrenia Shorts 52B Radiophrenia Shorts 52B 9 September 2026 7:30 pm - 8:00 pm 6 Ben Gaunt - Artillery of Nonsense (6:02) 7 Matilde Meireles - Two (Another Way) (7:00) 8 Jai Martone - The Bells of Cappuccini (7:06) 9 Bowen Wu – Scotory (6:09) 6) Ben Gaunt - Artillery of Nonsense This piece is dedicated to my friend Rob Bentall, who describes my chaotic and bizarre sense of humour as an “artillery of nonsense.” We both work at Leeds Conservatoire and, as a result, he has often stayed over at my place. I have developed a habit of waking him with a deliberately awful playlist (Ben Gaunt’s Horror Show Chill Vibes 3000) a ritual I find far funnier than he does. The piece draws on heavily processed fragments from that playlist, combined with a selection of unusual recordings I made over the previous two years, alongside a number of private references to my friendship with Rob. Ben Gaunt is a Yorkshire-based composer, sonic artist and improviser, and Professor of Composition at Leeds Conservatoire.

These were transformed into drones, rhythmic pulses, and imagined animal calls. It's the lead single from Four Tales, my new album coming out on 10 March. Two (another way) emerged from listening sessions I created for DRIFT, a collaborative floating architectural installation along Belfast's River Lagan that fostered new perspectives on city-river connections during summers 2024 and 2025. DRIFT was commissioned by Belfast City Council and brought together OGU Architects, MMAS Architects, and myself. Matilde Meireles is a sound artist and researcher who makes use of field recordings to compose site-oriented projects. Deeply exploratory, blending improvisation and other sonic flows with multiple approaches to recording, her work takes shape through live performances, installations, album releases, community-driven projects, workshops and both academic and creative publications. https://matildemeireles.com @mtld_meireles (instagram) 8) Jai Martone - The Bells of Cappuccini 'The Bells of Cappuccini' is a soundscape composition constructed entirely from found sounds recorded in the composer's ancestral village in Campania, Italy. The titular bells are recorded at the village's historic Cappuccin monastery, located on a hill and immersed in its own citrus tree orchard, which dates back to the Renaissance. The piece takes its listeners on a journey through time, from the sibylline medieval settlement, to the sepia-toned scenery of the 20th Century, through to the bustling modern-day Italian kitchen - the nucleus of the family home. The sounds explore the sonic transformation that the natural landscape has experienced over generations of human activity, with evolution and change being constant. However, one thing is always certain - the seemingly omniscient bells of Cappuccini are ever present. Jai Martone is an emerging composer of Italian descent based in Cardiff, Wales, currently studying Composition & Creative Music Technology at the Royal Welsh College of Music & Drama. With a particular interest in sound art being a vessel for narrative storytelling, their music is frequently direct, unapologetic, ambitious and emotional, with references to their Neapolitan heritage often evident across their work. Their versatility spans soundscape composition, acousmatic music, electronic music using spoken word, and plunderphonics - a recent example being a work entirely from samples from the FX comedy horror series 'What We Do in the Shadows'. https://www.youtube.com/@JaiMartoneComposer https://www.instagram.com/jai.martone_composer/ 9) Bowen Wu – Scotory This radio work re-composes three recordings from the National Library of Scotland sound archive: a spoken broadcast (“BBC Town and Country VHF Area”), church bells (“Magnus Bells”), and fire engine bells (“Old Leith”). As a foreigner living in Scotland, my relationship to this history is mediated entirely through recordings, documents and stories rather than lived experience. The archive becomes a place I can only access by listening. The bells function as temporal signals, while the broadcast voice appears as a distant authority, guiding the listener through fragments of place. Through layering and displacement, the work constructs a speculative memory — an imagined Scotland assembled from transmission, repetition and acoustic traces rather than direct memory. Wu is a composer based in Glasgow. His practice explores sound art, electroacoustic composition, moving image and live electronics, often working with archival material, spatial listening and custom-built systems. His work has been presented internationally at festivals and exhibitions including ArteScienza, GLEAM Festival and the NLS Festival of Broadcast, as well as at conferences such as ICMC. He previously worked as a keyboardist and music director in live music contexts before moving toward experimental and research-based practices. Wu holds an MSc in Composition from the University of Edinburgh and is currently a PhD researcher at the University of Glasgow. https://bowenwu.uwu.ai/# Kunstradio 3: Claire Serres - Grotte song or the underground voices Kunstradio 3: Claire Serres - Grotte song or the underground voices 9 September 2026 8:00 pm - 9:00 pm Broadcast: September 18th, 2022, Kunstradio With the voices by Gérard Gorsse, François Villeneuve, Sandra Laborier, Delphine Dora, Esther Haller, Natalie Rubchenko, Necef Mengüverdi, Carlos Entringer, Rebecca Bremin, Daniel Pantaleoni, Sara Steinmoen, Odile Jacquot, Cécile Babiole, Gaëlle Coëffeur, Alice Quérel, Caroline Tricotelle, Corinne Castel, Marion Lacas, Véronique Guillien, Malika Lahcen. Grotte song or the underground voices is a underground crossing, sung and sounded a cappella by a women's choir. The piece is inspired by medieval chansons de geste, between fable and sung poem, it tells the cave legend. The voices constitute the subterranean landscape, like the interior of an immense, vibrating and humid body. Guttural, bony, blown and shouted voices inhabit this fantasized place, at the origin of our desires and our fears. We walk at a slow pace in the dark, along a deep and hoarse rale, attracted by the reassuring click of the water drops, the tongue slapping against the palate, close to the microphone. Then a voice crosses the cavity to our ears, powerful and sensual. To find our way back, we sing the ritornello, the one we have known since childhood: This is the story I was told It is possible that you know it It happened in a cave At the cave bottom she lived In the cave she lived in peace She saw no one no one saw her No one had ever been there It seemed that her look was killing They always wanted to chase her away They always wanted she never exist All the time they condemned her Of all the evils of all the sins This is the story I was told In the cave she lived in peace In all times she was killed Always she rose again From her death life was reborn https://www.kunstradio.at/2022B/18_09_2022.html Alain Damasio & Floriane Pochon - Time Grows By Alain Damasio & Floriane Pochon - Time Grows By 9 September 2026 9:00 pm - 9:40 pm Time Grows By is an immersive audio drama conceived as a soundwalk, where listening becomes the primary narrative force and the listener’s body is part of the experience. Set in a garden imagined as a temporal anomaly, the piece explores a world where past, present and future coexist, interfere and take root. Guided by a fictional character claiming to come from the future, the listener moves through shifting temporal states rather than a linear story. Industrial ruins, vegetation, water and unrealized futures surface and dissolve. Time no longer passes: it thickens, bifurcates and accumulates in bodies and materials. Through poetic narration and spatialized sound, the piece destabilizes perception and invites pauses and moments of uncertainty. Originally created as a site-specific work, Time Grows By functions fully as an autonomous audio drama, proposing imagination as a form of care and resistance. Artist bios: Alain Damasio is a French writer whose work bends language toward politics, ecology and speculative futures, with a strong attention to rhythm, voice and collective imagination. Floriane Pochon is a sound artist, founder of Phaune Radio, where listening is treated as a form of relation rather than representation. For over a decade, they have collaborated on sound pieces that unsettle linear narration and fixed points of view. Their shared practice weaves voice, space and sound into immersive situations where time slips, perception shifts and meaning remains in motion, inviting listeners to inhabit uncertainty and imagine other ways of being together.

The catalogue is made up of several dozen sound recordings featuring squeaky, creaking, screeching or otherwise noisy swing sets. The reasons for swing noise are various – loose connections or fasteners, aging of the materials used in the construction of the swing, weather conditions affecting them, as well as the load and overload to which the swing is subjected. Although most of the recordings feature swings that only minimally differ in terms of mechanics, construction and materials used, their noise is never identical, providing a sound testimony to the environment in which the swing is placed. Swinging, photos – Ada Ruszkiewicz; Idea, recording, editing and mixing – Ernests Vilsons. Since the work is a catalogue, the individual recordings could be played either one after the other or interspersed between other works. Artist bio: Ernests Vilsons is a Latvian composer living in Rīga. He writes music for acoustic instruments and electronic means, creates sound installations and performances, and collects field recordings. He is interested in harmony, time, silence, chance, representation and transcription. E. Vilsons studied at the Institute of Sonology at the Royal Conservatoire in The Hague. His master's research project “Well-Structured Vocalizations: An Attempt To Imitate Birdsong” was awarded the Konrad Boehmer Foundation Prize in 2020.

Openings – opening and closing the church door… 2. Bells – marking the approach of the hour… 3. Fountain – a place to meet and chat at the centre of the village… 4. Valley – a plane passing high over nearby Vallée d’Arsoué frames the lazy soundscape of insects, birds and cowbells… Postcards from Azet was composed for and premiered at Aure sonore: festival de paysage sonore, Azet, 2-6 August 2023. Jonty Harrison (1952) studied at the University of York, before working at the National Theatre and City University, London. In 1980 he joined the University of Birmingham, where he directed the Electroacoustic Music Studios and BEAST. He retired in 2014 and is now Emeritus Professor of Composition and Electroacoustic Music. Gastprofessur, TU, Berlin (2010); Leverhulme Emeritus Fellow (2014-15). Compositeur Associé, Maison des Arts Sonores/KLANG! Acousmonium, Montpellier, France (2014–). He has received many commissions and prizes internationally, and his work appears on four solo albums (empreintes DIGITALes, Montreal) and several compilations. https://electrocd.com/en/artiste/harrison_jo/Jonty_Harrison 2) Ollie Hawker - Four Short Pieces for Somewhere Incredibly Far Away Four Short Pieces for Somewhere Incredibly Far Away is a piece for singing percussion duo and electronics by Ollie Hawker, written for and performed by the Köng Duo (Bevis Ng and Hoitong Keung) as part of their joint residency at The Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity in Alberta, Canada. It utilises text-to-speech, text-to-song and a really janky A.I. text generating software to sketch several miniatures exploring memory and distance in the digital self. Four Short Pieces... is presented here alongside several interviews in which the duo talk about their memories of Hong Kong, bringing intimacy and meaning to such seemingly trivial memories as public transport. Text by Thomas Lyle, Josie Rogers, Thomas Moore and Ollie Hawker. Ollie Hawker (he/him) is a composer and community music practitioner based in Glasgow. His recent work combines a sonic arts training in texture and timbre with a love of simple harmony and stillness. His music strives for a clarity that is both fragile and touching, likely to get blown away by a strong gust of wind. olliehawker.com https://www.instagram.com/ollie.p.hawker/ 3) Aleatory Music Systems (AMS) - Up/Down This new work from Robert Baldock’s ‘Aleatory Music Systems’ project takes its starting point with the Shepard Tone. The infamous aural illusion presents a tone that rises, or falls, infinitely. By introducing the seemingly prosaic interventions of a porcelain butter dish being struck or being submerged in water, AMS conduct their customary exploration of the chaotic edges undermining the border territories of systems music. The work is an invitation to ponder time, and change, and movement. If sound purporting to be rising for ever is just a brief illusion captured in a loop, does it move at all? Can a sound, after all, exist outside of time? Jez Butler: Mastering Michael Begg: Narrative Andy Fielding: Artwork Robert Baldock is a Scottish-based new media artist who has worked under the name Aleatory Music Systems (AMS) since 2002. His practice explores the interface between order and chaos through improvised and semi-improvised structures shaped by chance operations. Works are created using Max/MSP alongside modular analogue audio and video synthesis, drawing on analogue synthesizers, General MIDI, shortwave radio, and field recordings. Since surviving a serious stroke in 2017, Baldock’s work has focused on the loss and reconfiguration of language and expression. Living with aphasia and verbal dyspraxia, his practice addresses disrupted communication, where intention, articulation, and comprehension no longer align. https://aleatorymusicsystems.bandcamp.com/ https://www.instagram.com/aleatorymusicsystems/?hl=en https://soundandmusic.org/discover/composer/robert-baldock/ https://britishmusiccollection.org.uk/node/67571 Radiophrenia Shorts 36B Radiophrenia Shorts 36B 9 September 2026 10:30 pm - 11:00 pm 1 Melanie Sevcenko - Instructions for Finding Me on the Radio (4:09) 2 Magda Lampropoulou - Reflections (13:00) 3 Regan O'Brien & SM Milligan - Make up Play.

(7:06) 1) Melanie Sevcenko - Instructions for Finding Me on the Radio "Instructions for Finding Me on the Radio" is part of a larger literary audio project called "Educated Ear." Currently a work-in-progress, "Educated Ear" is my second poetry collection which contains five chapters – Listen, Field Recordings, Production, Mixing & Mastering, and Performance – with 60-plus poems categorized into each section. The overarching themes of the collection include memory, archiving, recording, interpreting beauty, and the art of listening. Accompanying the collection is a "playlist" that includes ten of the poems produced as pieces of sound art, which will then become an interactive sound installation. "Instructions for Finding Me on the Radio" is a work of sound art produced from one of the poems in the collection of the same name, included in the "Listen" chapter. Melanie Sevcenko is an audio editor & producer, reporter, writer, and sound artist. Based in Portland, OR, she currently edits and produces Live Wire, a nationally-syndicated public radio variety program from PRX. She's also reported for numerous outlets, including The Guardian, American Public Media, NPR, BBC World Service, CBC, and Deutsche Welle, among others. As a poet, her debut collection "I Still Go to Bed with Water" was published by Unsolicited Press in 2022. She's also the recipient of a Portland Arts Project Grant and has attended several artist residencies in the Pacific Northwest. https://www.msevcenko.com/ https://www.instagram.com/melaniesevcenko/ 2) Magda Lampropoulou - Reflections “Reflections” is a sound performance with my upcycled kitchen tools and everyday objects as real musical instruments which took place on September 20, 2025 as part of the Processes Festival 2025. In this electroacoustic piece you can listen to some extracts during a 35-minute length performance which was presented at REVMA in Athens. Magda Lampropoulou (b. 1977 Athens) is a sculptress and sound artist based in Athens, Greece. Her artwork engages with diverse, expressive media including audio, performance, sculpture, installations, and video. With emphasis on issues such as discrimination, prejudice, and moral values imposed by a given society, she assumes a humanitarian approach to her work. She holds a degree in Sculpture from the Athens School of Fine Arts. Her participation in exhibitions, festivals, artistic radio podcasts and residencies (“Subset Festival”-Athens Epidaurus Festival/ "Tectonics Athens21", Onassis Cultural Centre/ "Works for Radio #4", The Lake Radio), has resulted in her identifying her work methodology. https://magdoulas6.wixsite.com/magda-lampropoulou https://www.instagram.com/lampropoulou_magda/ https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100009992858432 https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063475181193 3) Regan O'Brien & SM Milligan - Make up Play. A soliloquy on light and shadow A woman reflects on herself as a young girl who is secretly watching her mother put on make up to go out. Her voice, my shaking breath, their voices, the voices of her ancestors attuning momentarily, in the fading light of dusk. A fragment of a memory unmoored from meaning, adrift in the telescopic reflections of a lineage of powerful women rebuilding their identities. https://smmilligancom.wordpress.com/496-2/ https://www.reganobrien.com/projects https://www.instagram.com/reganobrienmusic/ https://www.reganobrien.com https://smmilligan.com https://www.instagram.com/bethaniensdust/ 4) Owen Duff - The Meaning of Alexa (Ambient) - Can we be happy? These are selections from a long-form work I have just completed, derived from an improvised piano and vocal ‘duet’ with an Amazon smart speaker which I recorded and then processed with extreme time stretching, editing and sound design. I also included audio of what the smart speaker recorded during the duet from Amazon’s servers. With this piece I wanted to evoke in sound the space between human expression, represented by my freely improvised playing and sung questions, and AI’s understanding of it. I also wanted to explore the blurring lines between humans and the technology we have invented, and to play with the dichotomy between our ideas of freedom and a digital capitalism which has promised to deliver that freedom, but has arguably removed our liberty to reject capitalism. Owen Duff works across multiple artistic fields, from his work as a singer-songwriter with many albums and videos released over 20 years, to his work making music for screen such as the Queerty-nominated series Kissing Walls. As a sonic artist Owen was Highly Commended in the 'Composed with Sound' category at Sound of the Year Awards in 2023, created the sound art/poetry collaboration 'Ghost Dance' with poet Emily Berry, which was a featured premiere on BBC's Late Junction in 2024, and had work selected for an In The Dark listening event the same year. http://www.owenduff.co.uk http://www.instagram.com/owenduffmusic owenduff.bandcamp.com Leon Clowes - Empirical Evidence of the Existence of Angels Leon Clowes - Empirical Evidence of the Existence of Angels 9 September 2026 11:00 pm - 11:15 pm The piece documents 11 days and 11 hours of my early addiction recovery and attendance at Alcoholics Anonymous meetings. It is based on an artswork experiment where I noted the thought, time and place of when I saw a feather on my daily routines around London. Sharing intimate inner thoughts within a delicate sound design frankly exposes the internal struggles of someone attempting recovery. Delivered in a calm (yet unsettling) Radio 4 Shipping Forecast/James Alexander Gordon-like tone, the radio piece will give listeners insights to the internal world of private thoughts that we all have. Artist bio: I am an artist working with sound, story, and social practice. My artswork navigates taboo, memory, grief, and the uncomfortable. Forms range from participatory performances and installations to sound design, audio collage, and live storytelling, often created with and around communities. Ideas I explore include kinship care, gay male experiences in white working-class contexts, addiction, recovery, and the social systems that shape these experiences. My current major projects are "Absent Fathers" (Birmingham Opera Company/Resonance FM), "Empirical Evidence of the Existence of Angels" (Naviar Records) and "Casting a Fairlight on the Time of AIDS" (New Note Orchestra/The Sunday Boys Choir/Routledge Books) Website/social links https://leonclowes.com/ https://soundcloud.com/leonclowes https://www.youtube.com/@leonclowes https://www.instagram.com/leonclowes/ https://recovery-arts.org/ Egor Sevastyanov - Firework Egor Sevastyanov - Firework 9 September 2026 11:15 pm - 11:59 pm Firework is a radio-based work developed from a live performance recorded during nights of civic protests against the Georgian government. The sound material is drawn from real-time radio broadcasts, live street reports, and audio streams captured directly from moments of confrontation between protesters and police. Fireworks, used in the streets as improvised weapons and signals, became a central acoustic element of the piece. The work was created through a method that depends on simultaneity and chance: modular synthesis and live signal processing were used to transform incoming radio transmissions in real time. The resulting composition could only exist under these specific conditions — when political events, broadcast signals, and live performance aligned. Artist bio: Egor Sevastyanov is a sound artist, composer, and production sound mixer working across experimental music, radio practices, and film. He works with modular synthesis, live radio transmissions, and field recordings, often integrating documentary reality into improvised sound structures. Sevastyanov has worked as a production sound mixer on films screened at major international festivals, including a film awarded the Golden Bear at the Berlinale. Alongside his film work, he develops live performances and radio-based projects that explore chance, instability, and the sonic material of social and political environments.

These records were especially made for amateur filmmakers, who were using super8 or single8 small film. Usually, these films recorded silent footage; the records provided sounds for a later phase of editing or screening. Thus, a lively sound and vision was to be experienced. The collage contains sounds from farm animals, there's a rocket lift-off, the ring and bing of pinball machines, racing sounds from motorcycles, the rattling sounds of chains for horror films and the screams too, sounds from a hot and sweaty sauna, there are explosions, elevators, separate instruments from an orchestra, bird whistles, the murmur of people, the hissing and thumping of steam engines, sinus and white noise test tones for testing your hifi setup, sci-fi soundtracks, courses in various languages, you'll hear morsecode, wind, water, etc. Artist bio: The possible manifestations of physical space and social context define the site-specific qualities of the work of Paul Devens (Maastricht, 1965). To make a unique work in a given space makes it compulsory to engage a custom strategy to fit that specific situation in order to issue- and to unfold the distinctive qualities of that space. Devens produces sound art, intervenes in architecture and sometimes cooperates with other makers.

Along its course, it receives, among other things, industrial discharges and most of the city's untreated wastewater. Thanks to the protection of the rights of nature in the 2008 Ecuadorian constitution, a 2024 ruling in favor of the river recognized it as a subject of rights and ordered the restoration of its life cycles. In this episode, the voices of those who live on its banks and the sounds of the vitality that share its ecosystem lead us to think about what the Machángara River is and what it can be.

Men in the sun are a duo based in Glasgow, producing devotional sounds of tensile echoes, warped iron beneath quiet tides, spectral sunken strings and wet metal whispers. 2) Lenara Verle - Dreamscaping Territories (10:00) The wisdom of Indigenous peoples tells us dreams have a role in creating reality. Our dream practices are powerful. In a society where our attention is being extracted as a finite resource, our minds and our imagination have been restricted by what the movies, the news, and social media choose to show us as realities and possibilities. If we want to effect positive change in the world, the first step is to be able to imagine, to dream of a bright future. A life infused with love and awe, with nurturing relationships. Using a mix of modern and old technology to invite a mind state similar to a dream state, we gather to nurture our power of imagination. We dreamscape a unified land of thriving, unique and interconnected beings. Our dream is witnessed and launched into the collective consciousness to resonate with the wider worlds, our future selves and descendants. Researcher in the field of art & technology, currently exploring the topic of dreaming as a technology. I have my own art practice, which is integral and complementary to my research practice. My artworks have won awards and residency grants at places like ZKM Center for Media Art, UNESCO/ASCHBERG, Planetary Collegium, Malaga University, Center for Advanced Hindsight, Durham. Beyond the world of technology, the natural world is very important to my practice. I steward an allotment garden and have a certificate in Permaculture Design. https://www.lenara.com 3) Colectivo La Pesera - Lost communication The loneliness dominant in the present days and the rapid development of technology lead to wonderings whether we are alone in this existential space? Are we alone? Is anybody out there? And one starts searching for answers and the possibilities to establish a communication. Thus this experimental sound peace came to life - with help of parabolic antenna, piezoelectric microphones and digital recorder we tried to converse with out-of-space beings. Only the listener can judge whether there was an answer. We are a multidisciplinary artistic collective founded in 2012 in the city of Puebla, Mexico, integrated by Agnija Anča (Latvia) and Nereo Zamítiz (Mexico). We create artistic projects involving analog and digital photographic processes, video art, sound art, and live audiovisual presentations. We have held exhibitions, workshops, and presentations in cultural spaces, universities, and museums in Mexico and Latvia, hosted cultural radio programs, and collaborate on music, dance, theater, and performance projects. colectivolapesera.com facebook.com/colectivo.lapesera instagram.com/colectivolapesera twitter.com/peseracolectivo instagram.com/colectivolapesera 4) Jan Mertens - Wet Tech #4: Adventures in the field Performance by Jan Mertens as part of Wet Tech #4: Adventures in the field. Wet Tech is an occasional performance event series focusing on improvisation & experimentation in sound & image, organised in Dundee, Scotland. The evening was centered around sounds made from and inspired by field recording. Jan Mertens presented a sound work built from five 11-second tape loops of field recordings gathered over several years at sites including Giant’s Causeway, the Irish Sea, Malham Cove, and California. These fragments were manipulated and resynthesized live, creating shifting textures where memory and environment fold into one another. The piece explored how brief sonic impressions can be stretched, layered, and transformed, turning moments of time and place into evolving auditory topographies. Recorded at the Dundee University Chaplaincy on 3 November 2025. Jan Mertens is a musician and sound artist from Ghent, Belgium based in Dundee, Scotland. His work explores the possibilities of organic and synthesized sounds. His works has been presented by institutions across the UK and internationally including the V&A museum London, Wellcome Collection, the Scottish Poetry Library, D21 Leipzig, and the Centre for Poetic Innovation University of St. Andrews. He frequently collaborates with Johanna Linsley. https://soundcloud.com/janmertens https://www.instagram.com/w37_73c/ https://www.instagram.com/mertens_jan/ Conduction Series 3 Conduction Series 3 10 September 2026 3:00 am - 4:00 am The 2025/6 Conduction Series Emphasizing live radio, interactivity, and media archaeological methods, The 2025/6 Conduction Series explores themes of migration, noise, feedback, speculative fiction, transmissive theatrics, and recreational aesthetics. The collective comes together on the first Friday of every month at 3:02pm ET using custom-made software. Some sessions don't have a description and the one on October 3th doesn't have even a title. However, some have a more detail description as in The Spiral: The record groove or a strip of tape moves forward by circling, slipping into another layer each time. That coiling motion echoes how time forms paths that don’t quite repeat. The spiral frames the way patterns return at different scales, from tiny biological curves to movements that shift light, air, and weather. A shared structure keeps resurfacing and shows how things grow and reorganize, how memory drifts, and how repetition comes back slightly off axis, opening another turn. Artist bio: The Conduction Series is a collaborative live radio broadcast produced by sound and transmission artists across the Americas on Wave Farm’s WGXC 90.7-FM Radio for Open Ears in New York’s Upper Hudson Valley.

Gradually, the process shifted from recording to construction, and the field recordings became a point of departure rather than material presented directly. A single oscillator was treated and layered to unfurl its tone into a broader sonic environment, sketching over the sounds of the island. The synthetic tracing eventually displaced the field recordings, leaving behind a sound world as a memory of place.

A hazy dreamlike sound work of fading coastal memories and distant bird song from long ago. Artist bio: Michael Ridge is a Norwich-based artist who works in a variety of mediums spanning sound, video, photography, performance and collage. The core of their sprawling practice investigates sound reproduction and audio cultures, addressing themes of nostalgia, identity, time, experimentation, chance and play. Michael has exhibited and performed at numerous venues throughout the UK and overseas, including the British Library, New York Public Library for the Performing Arts, Firstsite, Outpost, Dundalk Institute of Technology, Hundred Years Gallery, and Norwich Castle Museum & Art Gallery.

Weaving samples drawn from videos of ufo sightings, ranging from declassified US Air Force videos to a family in Scotland, with out of sync loops there is a repetitious call and response. The question: do you believe? the incitement: like I believe, working as an antagonism through which we might try to understand ourselves as believing creatures, restlessly searching for something tangible onto which we can attach this want to believe. Dianne Burdon is a researcher and artist based in Glasgow, currently developing a research project into the sound worlds of military infrastructure along the Clyde and its associated waterways.

This is a memory glitch switch making queer cacophony with the ghosts. This is a Woolf swish fish in to the swirling abyss of ghost paths and archaic messagings. This is river life, woolfing in the luminous dark, curious in the heart beat - pulsing the deeps - trans-ing the cares - immersing in the kindnesses of the non human world. it seeks to be our P O M O N A a fugitive in the sound world an escape artist from the theatre world sometimes up - sometimes down - mostly upside down dancing - looping - listening making - sometimes - faking always d.i.y in the radicals of resistances - deviances - protestas seeking discoveries of new bellisimos queerissimos for all our glory days 3) Martha Riva Palacio Obón - Crickets at 30 percent become wind In a conversation with Marie Bardet, Suely Rolnik mentions that our breath gives rhythm to our thoughts: "We dance with the biosphere..." Vibratile bodies that wave and are, also, atmosphere. The barrier between interior and exterior dilutes. I change scales and get lost in this continuum that connects organic and inorganic matter. Fluid, ghostly sound entities that don't care for human boundaries. This essay in three tracks or stridulations emerges from the digital mix of two field recordings: one cricket chirping in my room and a night cricket choir in a garden. First stridulation - wind 5' 07" In the microcosmos, the crickets generate atmospheric perturbances. Second stridulation - aurora 5' 44" Static, white noise, micro weather of the barely audible. Third stridulation - mantra 4' 41" Threshold, membrane, it's impossible to go back. Mexican author and interdisciplinary artist obsessed with atmospheric phenomena and crickets. (You can tell she may listen either for hours.) She studied a BA in psychology and a MBA in visual arts. Her sound essays have been presented in spaces such as Tsonami, Sur Aural, soundpedro, prior editions of Radiophrenia, the Center of Complexity Studies (UNAM) among others. She's the human behind Sono-bot, a non-human entity that generates an infinite inventory of problable and improbable sounds in Bluesky. Among her published works are Liquen amonita, El mono infinito and Amor virtual con variaciones. https://www.instagram.com/balighieri9/ https://bsky.app/profile/sono-bot.bsky.social Radiophrenia Shorts 6B Radiophrenia Shorts 6B 10 September 2026 8:30 am - 9:00 am 1 Ivor Kallin - Barra Soap Opera 09 (2:13) 2 Beata Anna Targosz & Marcin Dymiter - Neukölln.

Sonic Portrait The project explores the theme of locality, emerging from collaborative processes as well as attentive listening to and observation of the environments in which individuals live. The work is based on field recordings gathered in the artists’ neighborhoods: the Berlin district of Neukölln and Oliwa in Gdańsk, and on the subsequent analysis of these recordings. The analyzed sonic forms refer to the documenting and mapping of the environment and to experiencing it through particular factors and characteristics. Through a sensitive engagement with familiar spaces—examining their unique characteristics, temporal dynamics, and ongoing transformations, often captured in passing—the project initiates a conversation about locality as a starting point for artistic inquiry and as a framework for reflecting on global concerns. The sound file is an excerpt from a spatial live installation that evolves over time as an ongoing interplay of field recordings from the two neighborhoods. Marcin Dymiter moves in the field of electronic music, field recording and improvised music. He creates sound installations, radio plays, exhibitions and public spaces. Author of the books “Field Notes” and “Machines for Silence”. Independent curator of sound art. Member of the Polish Association of Electroacoustic Music. Bea Targosz's sound installations have been presented at numerous art institutions and symposia, including Silent Green Kulturquartier, the Museum für Naturkunde Berlin, and the CENSE International Symposium on Sonic Ecologies.

Many imaginary and fanciful 'species' including the Pond Bather, Golden Nuthatch and Brown Yipper are featured. A long-form sound collage of many species is the central work, and 'close-ups' are also included. In one sense the project is a sincere tribute to bird identification records and tapes one would find in garden centres in the 90s, of which the artists have a large collection. In another sense it is an uncanny objection to a contemporary relationship with nature that romanticises and objectifies it from a safe distance. The sounds have been sampled in records by other artists, used in an extended arrangement for an installation in the Jardin Des Plantes in Paris, presented with narration by a supposed ornithologist, and are played constantly via an internet radio station. Water Feature is a 'collage band' formed of several contributors, creating utopian, absurd and low-fidelity environmental(ist) music. https://variousbirds.net https://morsels.website 4) Vincent Eoppolo - The Struggling Artist feat.

Random FM stations, in both Canada and France, were recorded and then manipulated using a variety of experimental methods and techniques. These one minute radio-spots are not designed to be played as a continous piece, but as individual elements, punctuating a day's programming or broadcast. A minute here, a minute there. Paul Collins is a Toronto-born, Paris-based visual artist and musician. His paintings are represented by General Hardware Contemporary, Toronto. His prints are published by Michael Woolworth Publications, Paris. His most recent recording, Bez Vremena (2025), with Quentin Rollet and Marija Kovacevic, is now out on Astre d'Or Records. Collins is an active member of the Paris experimental music scene, playing frequently in such venues as Les Instants Chavirés, La Guillontine, Le Non_Jazz, Le Chair de Poule and Le Peine Perdue. He was a member of the Glenn Branca Orchestra. https://www.instagram.com/paul___collins/ https://soundcloud.com/paul-collins https://www.generalhardware.ca/paul-collins https://www.michaelwoolworth.com/paul-collins/ https://badge3.bandcamp.com Shortwave Collective No ‘go-go girls (on the dancefloor)’ Shortwave Collective No ‘go-go girls (on the dancefloor)’ 10 September 2026 9:00 am - 10:00 am Shortwave Collective explore Citizens Band (CB) radio— frequencies dedicated to licence-free communication. As artists interested in radio as a way to bypass corporate communications infrastructures and harness atmospheric conditions, we are drawn to CB’s potential as a shared mode of connection. Yet while CB radio presents itself as an open community, our experiences have been marked by inaudibility and exclusion. We investigate the gendered and discriminatory codes embedded in CB slang and speak back through poetic interventions: No ‘go-go girls (on the dancefloor)’ rejects a CB code that equates women with livestock, originally used to describe a truck hauling pigs or cows. Working from locations dispersed across the globe, we explore our local environments, magnetically mounting antenna extenders to metal surfaces in attempts to meet on an 11-metre wave. These efforts to connect open speculative possibilities for a future collective CB radio community and shared poetic transmission. This piece was developed during a tekhnē online residency supported by OUT.RA and Skaņu Mežs, between September 2025-January 2026. A companion text titled 'Becoming Citizens of the 11 Metre Band' is available via Skaņu Mežs.

The work operates through juxtaposition rather than narration, weaving together historical recordings, ceremonial vocal practices, political speech and experimental music as a field of resonances across time, geography and culture. The piece combines electronic compositions by Daphne Oram and Hannah Peel—including material connected to the legacy of Delia Derbyshire—with spoken and sung voices drawn from diverse contexts: Indigenous women’s songs, communal vocal practices, archival interviews, and feminist and technoscientific discourse. Extracts from thinkers and figures such as Donna Haraway, Angela Davis, Wendy Carlos and Amelia Earhart appear not as authorities but as situated voices within a broader sonic constellation. Rather than presenting a linear history or a representational survey, Voices of Women treats voice as material, archive and political presence. Artist bio: Roberto Vilela is a sound artist, radio maker and independent researcher based in Spain. He is the founder and director of Música Dispersa, an artist-run platform dedicated to experimental music, radio art, archival practices and critical sound research. His work operates at the intersection of experimental sound, radio transmission and cultural archaeology, with a particular focus on feminist, anticolonial and queer perspectives. Through radio programmes, curated broadcasts and long-form research projects, he explores sound as a political practice, a living archive and a tool for counter-historical narration. Vilela’s practice privileges radio as an artistic medium in itself rather than as Website/social links http://www.linktr.ee/musicadispersa http://www.musicadispersarecords.bandcamp.com http://www.soundcloud.com/musicadispersaradio Katalin Ladik - Water Angel (1989) Katalin Ladik - Water Angel (1989) 10 September 2026 10:30 am - 11:00 am The work features Ladik reciting fragments of her own lyrics mixed with parts from James Joyce and Lewis Carroll, creating a real time textual collage of vocals, while accompanying herself on a self-built instrument called "zitherphone”. Into this abstract tapestry of human action - at times processed and at others left unaffected - Ladik then wove in an array of environmental field recordings with startling effect, sculpting a deeply personal, internal universe that plays against the world outside.

The project is a collaboration between Alice Eldridge at Sussex University, Knepp Wilding and the Soundcamp Cooperative. Knepp is a pioneering rewilding project in West Sussex. In Feb 2022, a pair of beavers were introduced to a small brook that runs south-north through the estate. Beavers are ecosystem engineers - they coppice shrubs and trees to build dams. Their dams are already altering the flow of water and turning the small seasonal lag into a complex wetland area. How will this changing landscape affect the local fauna? Can we hear these changes? Will the growing wetland create habitat for new species? Might we start to hear the tick of water beetles and the scrape of water boatmen? How might the changing wetland affect the behaviour of birds and mammals in the area? Might new invertebrates bring new birds? What ecological changes might new birds bring? To find out, we have installed a solar-powered, quadrophonic live audio feed just north of the dam: A pair of hydrophones brings us closer to the sounds of the water itself and reveals the tiny sounds of fresh-water organisms. A pair of microphones in a fallen willow tree let us get to know the birds and mammals that live near and visit the water and hear the play of weather in the trees. In the springtime, listen out for blackbirds, song thrushes and woodpeckers during the day and owls and nightingales during the night. Summer brings the turr-turring of turtle doves and the squeals of teenage piglets; the autumn, the guttural coughs and bellows of rutting deer. And, all the while, small freshwater invertebrates munch tirelessly in the stream. Who else can you hear? wilding radio brings art, science and technology together, to allow us to listen in and become part of long-term, positive ecological change. Artist bio: Soundcamp (2013–) are an arts cooperative based at Stave Hill Ecological Park in Rotherhithe and Work Shop 1 in Loughborough Junction, with members in Glasgow, Berlin, Yorkshire, Crete and The Netherlands. We are interested in diy infrastructures that can move live sounds between places and situations, and give attention to less heard human and non-human communities. Our work appears as live transmissions, workshops, sound devices and events. For a full list of activities, please see soundtent.org > news.

The catalogue is made up of several dozen sound recordings featuring squeaky, creaking, screeching or otherwise noisy swing sets. The reasons for swing noise are various – loose connections or fasteners, aging of the materials used in the construction of the swing, weather conditions affecting them, as well as the load and overload to which the swing is subjected. Although most of the recordings feature swings that only minimally differ in terms of mechanics, construction and materials used, their noise is never identical, providing a sound testimony to the environment in which the swing is placed. Swinging, photos – Ada Ruszkiewicz; Idea, recording, editing and mixing – Ernests Vilsons. Artist bio: Ernests Vilsons is a Latvian composer living in Rīga. He writes music for acoustic instruments and electronic means, creates sound installations and performances, and collects field recordings. He is interested in harmony, time, silence, chance, representation and transcription. E. Vilsons studied at the Institute of Sonology at the Royal Conservatoire in The Hague. His master's research project “Well-Structured Vocalizations: An Attempt To Imitate Birdsong” was awarded the Konrad Boehmer Foundation Prize in 2020.

The experience I gained as a radio actress later became an important source for my sound poetry works." This work incorporates excerpts from the Hungarian-language audio archives of Radio Novi Sad (Yugoslavia, Serbia), originally broadcast on 212.4 MHz between 1957 and 2002. Audio Engineering: Szabolcs Puha A Radiophrenia commission produced with the support of Creative Scotland. Biography: Katalin Ladik was born 1942 in Novi Sad, Yugoslavia (now Serbia) and is currently based in Budapest, Hungary where she has lived and worked since the 1990s. Her artistic output is at once sprawling, prolific and singular. Beginning as a poet and expanding into performances in the 1970s she developed her own theatrical language which eventually came to incorporate sound and visual poetry, performance art, experimental music, audio plays, happenings, mail art, collage, and photography. Throughout Ladik's work and particularly in her performances, the voice and the body (most often her own) converge to become a site in which the personal and political spheres overlap. Making use of diverse sources from mythic narratives to personal and everyday objects, she has consistently sought to investigate her role as a woman in her own Eastern European context, challenging dominant societal, sexual and gender norms. She began her career with interventions on Radio Novi Sad (1963–77) and as an actress with the avant-garde theatre group Bosch+Bosch in the city of Subotica (1977–92). However, it was the publication of the record Phonopetica (1976) which drew the attention of sound poets abroad including Bob Cobbing, Gerhard Rühm and Henry Chopin who invited her to perform the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam in 1977, and led to her international recognition and prominence within the fields of sound poetry and visual art in which she remains active today. She participated in documenta 14 in Athens and in 2019 the Italian label Alga Margen released ‘Phonopoetics’, a diverse survey of Ladik's audio work between 1968-1993. "Poet, actress, and visual artist Katalin Ladik has to be considered as one of the most pioneering artists alive...Her work is bound to feminist matters in Eastern Europe and reflects the personal, social and existential difficulties that female artists must face. Recurrent dual structures and the use of sexually ambiguous figures (androgynes and angels) as well as gender-neutralising elements inhabit her work, which occasionally acquires Shamanic overtones and integrates therapeutic mechanisms of liberation." – SoundOhm Fragments used from the following radio plays / sound works: 1.

As the first sound of creation was the vibrating sound, and every being has its own sound, its own mantra… so from the dark comes the one who speaks out of me: “Where are you, where are you, my breathing window, healing of my shadow…” — A dog wriggles beneath the bridge.

I look in the stone, not there. I look in the wood, not there. — Radio Novi Sad. — Few lived on that mountain. They smoked with sulphur all night long, waiting for the dawn of the Age of Aquarius. Some grave epidemic was raging in the jealously guarded Garden. With bloody wings, with burn wounds, they passed over the snowfields. Van Luber Parensen - With Balaroa and Mr. Yotomi Van Luber Parensen - With Balaroa and Mr. Yotomi 10 September 2026 12:15 pm - 12:30 pm In this work, Mr. Yotomi (72), recalls a disaster not through images but through sound: water moving beneath the ground, sudden vibrations, and the shifting of large trees around his home. These sonic memories form an underlying layer that shapes how the work is meant to be heard. Recorded in Balaroa, Palu, on a former liquefaction site now used as grazing land, the piece presents dispersed cowbell sounds moving across space. The bells mark everyday life continuing atop ground that once shifted, cracked, and swallowed residential areas. By minimising sonic manipulation, the work does not reconstruct the disaster, but invites listeners into the everyday acoustics of a post-disaster landscape. Here, sound functions as a marker of memory and spatial change—placing listeners between continuity and vulnerability, where what is heard is not collapse, but subtle resonances of land, bodies, and lives in motion. Artist bio: Van Luber Parensen is a transdisciplinary artist based in Jakarta. He is part of Forum Lenteng, a cultural organisation in Jakarta. His films have been screened at several national and international festivals and forums. As an artist, he works in various mediums, such as musical composition, soundscapes, painting, sketching, and collage. Since 2023, with SIGISORA, a listening initiative based in Jakarta, he has been focusing on sound-based art, both in the realm of composition practice and study.

Barrington Farm hosts a rich and diverse community of Learning Disabled adults. Tucked away in rural North Norfolk, it is rich with stories, sounds and community. The purpose of Roar Radio is to create audio works that can be shared specifically via radio play to reach and connect with a wider audience. A group of Barrington Farm artists meet Oliver in their onsite sound studio every Thursday afternoon to explore sound and make music. Alongside building instruments and kinetic sculptures, field recording and foley, the group makes experimental music. Nothing is composed, everything is improvised in real time. Everything is recorded which is then either kept and shared for listening, or collected to form larger multitrack projects. Presented for Radiophrenia is a new collage of ambient scraps, found sounds, field recordings and unused music. . Artist bio: Founded in 1988 in rural North Norfolk, Barrington Farm is a unique independent day services centre for adults with learning difficulties who may also have other complex physical, mental health or age – related needs. The service offers an Art Barn, working farm, sound studio, gym and sensory room. Several Barrington Farm artists such as Michael Smith, James Gladwell and Saffron Wright have had their work exhibited internationally.

Some recall it as a famine caused by drought, others as a deliberate act of ethnic cleansing by the USSR. The narrative shifts depending on who you ask, but what remains is the silencing, distortion, absurdity of memory and the chaotic ways it performs. [...] This piece is not just about the past but about the present, about resisting the false and perverse memory still propagated through Russian disinformation today. The act of remembering, of unearthing silenced stories, is an act of healing.

Her practice explores Bessarabian relational animism, oral memory, and decolonial ontologies through folklore. She’s released both dance tracks (I’m Going to Chișinău) and sonic testimonies like vers pervers (on the 1946 famine) and Leagăn (with folklorist Natalia Țurcan). She leads the collective listening workshops Ciulește Urechile and co-hosts AICI Chișinău, a micro daytime dance party.

The process of this piece was motivated and accompanied by a short film also named, Seeping Disharmonic Waves, depicting myself swimming naked in the ocean. This was a way to challenge myself to take up space, and be vulnerable with something I am scared of, the ocean. The process of making this audio piece was therapeutic, and it is my desire to offer that feeling to others as well. It is a playful and vulnerable project of recording the hums that may be "disharmonic", and shaping my own equilibrium from it, together with rushing waves, water droplets and running streams, layering on top of each other, one after another. I'm Alicia, an artist currently based in Germany. I completed my Bachelor of Fine Arts in 2024 at the Willem de Kooning Academy in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. Now I am working within an interdisciplinary art practice that encompasses photography/videography, performance art, textile and sound. I like to describe myself as a tactile documentarian: someone that researches through physical means, and where the process is part of the work itself. My work touches on notions of identity, embodied knowledge and care systems from the perspective of a person of color, with the focus to bring more togetherness in our social surroundings. instagram.com/aliciaelirena www. aliciaascamera.com 3) Viv Corringham - A walk by the lost river Walbrook In this work I follow one of London's "lost rivers" through the city to the Thames. As I walk I sing in response to what I'm hearing, and I tell what I know about this old vanished river. The work is part of a year-long project in 2023 called Soundwalkscapes, where I took a walk on the first monday of every month, wherever I happened to be. As I walked I recorded my sung and spoken responses along the way and later created pieces according to my memory of the walk. These were released as 2 CDs on the Flaming Pines label. This one occurred in September. Since the late 1970s Viv Corringham has been singing a wide range of music: free improvisation, Greek rembetika, Turkish folk and spontaneously created songs that often include field recordings and vocal processing. Walking has long been an essential part of her work. She leads group soundwalks and listening workshops based on her studying and working with Pauline Oliveros. On solo walks she improvises with environmental sounds, and in her ongoing series Shadow-walks she responds to the memory of walks that individuals chose as special for them. http://vivcorringham.org https://www.thewire.co.uk/audio/tracks/an-audio-introduction-to-viv-corringham 4) Filipa da Cunha Gomes – Caustics “Thought is a transition, a passage to another place. At the same time, it remains on the threshold.” – Byung-Chul Han It is necessary to find the right spots to have the body. The wait can take a while. It may even be that the whole experience resides in the waiting. Other thoughts are purified: those that we know do not pray, do not show, do not suspend the world nor lie down in it. While I wait for something to emerge, I feel a total connection with everything around me: the noises outside, the cars, the melodies in my head, phrases… There is something that makes me stay present, not travel too far. There is peace, a questioning of the mystery that is observed, that’s going through my cells. I travel, slowly. So I can remember I am free to live in my own pace. A multidisciplinary artist who has explored and developed herself in the areas of interpretation, poetry, music (voice, violin, sound exploration), art for children and sound art, seeking to work with art as an element of reflection, a way to think, to stay present, to rescue human purity and essence, and as an element of resistance to the brutality of the speed and mechanization of contemporary life.

Electroshock therapy provider, Yang Yongxin, 2009. This track is dedicated to victims of inhumane therapies. Congee Rats is the solo project of Dong Zhou, where electronic music serves as the core of cross-genre experiments, spanning influences from punk to world music. The songs are deeply reflective, often delving into pressing societal issues, particularly the experiences and struggles of marginalized communities. https://dongzhou.live/2023/10/08/congee-rats/ 2) Gabriele Hasler - Hymn of Perplexity Hymn of Perplexity Chwsssdchauchnch (ich weiß es doch auch nicht \| I don't know either) is a piece of spatial sound, or rather, a piece about what happens when I remove space from language, that is, when I omit the vowels and stumble from consonant to consonant. In this case, there isn't even a single voiced consonant, but a multitude of consonants that can be sustained by breath for a long time, creating a hissing and snarling sound, a whistling sound on the brink of cluelessness, no space! Yes, how is this supposed to continue? A voiceless hymn of perplexity, the opposite of the carefree optimism "wsssllschnsn?" (was soll schon sein? \| what could possibly happen?), with which the heroine plunges forward her whole life. And what happens to the distant vowel spaces, the i - ei - e - o - au-i, the pitiful howl... Gabriele Hasler's sound and tonal language is influenced by her involvement with contemporary jazz, electronic sound art and avant-garde pop. The exploration of the voice as an instrument led to a sophisticated collection of vocal techniques. Her voice is used both purely acoustically or amplified. In her "Hörfeld" thematic field recordings, soundscapes and loops are added. Hasler has been releasing on LAIKA Records since 2016, her solo-release."Herden und andere Büschel" received the German Record Award 1/2021 in the Grenzgänge category. gabrielehasler.de @gabriele-hasler (youTube) 3) pxyxy - Processed Live Processed Live is an attempt to imagine the sonic experiences of those who claim to be victims of so-called electro weapons or mind control. If the claim that radio waves are attacking the mind and body of humans is not a mere conspiracy theory but is true, they have the ability to hear things that are not normally audible to the human ear, such as radio frequency signals used in wireless communication. The only problem is that the very ability to create a reality beyond simply recognizing the real-world is not controllable. Boryeon Choi is an artist based in Seoul, South Korea. She is the author of K-OS (2020, Mediabus), a investigation into accelerationist modes of thought experimentation, and Processed Live 加工實況 (2025, Artpress Heem), which examines the epistemological problem of listening and the inferential limits of understanding others’ minds, in relation to sound. As part of her ongoing inquiry into what she terms sonic epistemology, she founded C.C.C. (Compulsive Credit Corp.), a platform dedicated to the study of belief, trust, and the acoustic conditions of knowledge formation. http://www.boryeon.site Lost in Transmission 4 Lost in Transmission 4 10 September 2026 2:00 pm - 2:30 pm Luke Fowler - Janet and Daphne Luke Fowler - Janet and Daphne 10 September 2026 2:30 pm - 3:00 pm EAPS 3 - Languido EAPS 3 - Languido 10 September 2026 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm EAPS is a collective of six sound poets that respond to a prompt to create works that are gathered into a program.

It weaves together the voices of huskies, solo and in pack, the glide of sleds, the breath of snow, the forest, and the human presences of the domain. The voice of a musher moves through the space, poetically recounting his first dogsled journey across northern Canada and the birth of that passion. Between harnessing frenzy, the silence of the run, and nocturnal polyphonies akin to a wild choir, the work interlaces memory, territory, and animality in an inhabited listening experience shaped by tension, contemplation, and collective force. Shaped through extended listening and in situ recordings, the piece invites the audience to enter a resonant threshold where landscape becomes voice, and where human and animal presences briefly merge into a shared breath. Lambert is a transdisciplinary artist and curator based in Québec City. Her practice brings together installation, sound art, performance and writing, exploring interrelations between memory, place and temporality. Holding an MFA in Visual and Media Arts from Université Laval, she develops site-responsive works grounded in gathering sensory traces. Her work has been presented and supported across Latin America, Europe and Canada, often in locations marked by layered histories. From 2020 to 2026, she served as Executive and Artistic Director of Avatar, a centre dedicated to sound art, while pursuing research focused on listening, perceptual deceleration and spaces of refuge. https://www.myriamlambert.ca/ https://www.instagram.com/myriam_lambert_qc/ https://www.facebook.com/myriam.lambert.75/ 2 Fastus - In A Strange Land Not long ago my wife and I moved from the NYC area to Beacon NY in the lovely Hudson Valley area. Being closer to nature we've been awakened to an entirely new soundscape: birds, tree fogs, crickets and other insects. I've found that the exploration of the unfamiliar can invoke both exhilaration and apprehension, that the thrill of the exotic is often shadowed by a measure of anxiety. You'll see these seemingly contradictory qualities represented in this particular journey through a "Strange Land" of exotic sounds and textures. Composer Ian O'Brien first became acquainted with electronic music during his undergraduate years at Columbia University, home of the famed Columbia-Princeton Electronic Music Center. Having performed in various bands in the lively downtown NYC scene as keyboardist and percussionist, O'Brien, operating under the name 'Fastus' now produces and performs works made with modular synthesis. His music has appeared on assorted net-labels and has been heard on various broadcast radio stations in England and the US. "In A Strange Land" was featured in the New York City Electroacoustic Music Festival in 2023. His latest release is entitled "Into the Light." https://fastus.bandcamp.com/album/into-the-light https://soundcloud.com/fastus 3) Hans Kadensia - MORPH Morph is a piece for real-time processed cello and tape. The work draws its sonic roots from particular moments in life, such as fireworks during San Juan celebrations or the clinking of glasses during a toast. These past action sounds become the main material of the piece and are transformed to their extremes in order to convey a sense of metamorphosis, bringing memories and their clarity into a distant, breath like presence. Hans invites the listener to adopt a new perspective on listening, offering a shared experience of how sound memories preserve authenticity, how our perception of life evolves, and how the saturation of sound and information in our contemporary world generates constant change that inexorably transforms our points of reference. Today, time is constantly accelerating, making attentive listening more necessary than ever. Hans Kadensia is a Franco-Canadian cellist, improviser, and experimental composer based in France. Hans’s artistic expression transcends traditional musical boundaries, crafting a profound sensory landscape where the tangible corporality of the cello organically merges with the ephemeral digital soundscape. Through her approach, Hans deconstructs and reimagines musical material at its most fundamental level, inviting listeners into a microscopic sonic universe where each vibration and each electronic manipulation becomes a narrative in itself.

Sounds that explore and alternate across those indistinct limits, blending everyday city life with nature, chaos with calm, and traversing a geography rich in contrasts. This work was created exclusively from cello sounds. Each one was selected, refined, and digitally processed, and then used to build the textures that give the piece its final form Laura Molina La Plata - Argentina Experimental electronic and sound artist She specializes in technological arts and holds a postgraduate degree in Applied Electronics for Art from the Universidad Nacional de las Artes. She has also studied aesthetics, curatorship, and the installation of technological artworks at Espacio Fundación Telefónica and CCEBA. She collaborates with artists from various disciplines, creating electronic objects and installations.Her work focuses on sound art and experimental composition, alongside her studies in cello. Her pieces have been exhibited in Argentina, Spain, and Finland https://www.instagram.com/lauriniam/ https://calathea.bandcamp.com/album/los-viajes-imaginarios 5) Joseph Sannicandro - al-rambla / Las Ramblas Comprised primarily of recordings of rivers, fountains, aqueducts, irrigation canals, and waterwheels made in Granada (Andalucía) and Blanca (Murcia), al-rambla / Las Ramblas blurs boundaries between traditional and modern, rural and urban, Muslim and Christian, attending to the circulation of water as a means of challenging these supposed binaries. Psychogeographic field recordings were made and re-recorded in situ during a sound art residency at Centro Negra (AADK Spain), producing temporary guerrilla installations. The resulting collaged composition thus further blurs perception through disorienting layers of time and space. Joseph Sannicandro is a writer and artist based in Montreal. He is co-founder of the music blog A Closer Listen, and producer of the Sound Propositions podcast. He co-produced the housing justice podcast Réverbérations d’une crise with Hubert Gendron-Blais.

It’s a journey of a spirit between challenges and subsequent transition to the new level of consciousness told in a form of a sound experience. For the artist, “Domovina” has become a therapeutic way of going through a life crises and leaning to let go by saying goodbye to her earlier life and her earlier, or maybe, outdated self that she can no longer connect to in a creative process. Due to the artists’ strong connection to nature and culture, the outside world plays a big role in the story, with nature’s creatures and surroundings being at heart of the main characters’ transition and transfiguration. With the audio file, I'm sending the text of the tale. Artist bio: Yulia Gadalova is a media artist working with sounds, technology and interactivity. With her works across both physical and digital domains, Yulia has participated in exhibitions and festivals locally in Russia and Armenia, as well as internationally, and has worked both independently and within multidisciplinary and international teams. Informed by migration and exploration of tradition, in her works, Yulia blends together traditional knowledge and contemporary technology.

A tale (English translation) I once knew a girl. She lived in a small village that floated upon a vast whispering swamp. There were just three houses there, perched on a hump of land, but the girl's family had no home. So the girl, with her bare hands, tried to build one. She worked from dusk till dawn, But the swamp was hungry. One side of her tiny wooden home kept sinking into its soft, greedy belly. The girl wandered the swamp each day, searching for shrub and moss. Bit by bit, she pressed it under the house to keep it from tilting. But it was never enough. Still, she kept walking, wading, whispering-talking to the creatures of the swamp. Frogs, birds, shadows, things with eyes that glowed at dusk. Oh, how many stories they told her and the girl listened. The stories filled her. They became hers. Collecting shrub and moss was hard work, and she knew - one day she would have to go outside the swamp in search of more shrub and moss. The only thing she regretted was - she would no longer be able to listen to the creatures. No longer gather their tales. She longed to leave the swamp... but not to gather shrub. She wanted to share the stories. One day, a hermitess came to her door. A woman with long braids and wisdom in her eyes. "What are you looking for, stranger?" "I came to learn about life in this swamp." So the girl told the hermitess everything. Stories of winged creatures and ancient stones, and secrets whispered through the reeds. “You have a gift,” the hermitess said. “Come with me. I will teach you to use it. You will serve a higher cause. You will share your stories with the world.” The girl really wanted to go and share her stories with others. But... “I cannot go,” she whispered. “If I leave, the house will sink into the swamp’s soft, greedy belly. And my family will have nowhere to live.” And so the hermit walked away, and the girl returned to the swamp, searching for shrub. Another time, a jestress came to her door. A woman with bells on his shoes and laughter that didn’t reach her eyes. The girl told the jestress all stories. The jestress listened, smiling. "You are so talented, girl," he said. "Come with me. We’ll find a new queen to serve. You’ll tell your stories in golden halls." "I cannot go," the girl said. "I need to find more shrub and moss. Otherwise, my home will slide into the soft and greedy belly of the swamp." "Don’t you worry, girl. I promise you - when you return, your house will stand tall and never sink again." "Are we going to be absent for long? I cannot leave..." "You’ll be back after one hundred and one days. And when you return, your home will be safe and will never slide into the swamp’s belly again. That, I swear." The girl hesitated—but her heart burned to go. And so she took the jestress’ hand, and together, they walked the swamp roads. "How will we find a new queen to serve, Jester?" "We will stop at every village, and you will tell your stories. The word will spread, and a queen will summon us to her court." "But Jestress, what if no king calls us? Someday I’ll just run out of stories." "Didn’t I tell you, your home will be safe, girl? Does anything else matter after that?" So the girl and the jestress wandered endlessly around the swamps. They went from village to village. At every stop, the girl told her stories. And people listened. And the jestress took coins behind the girls back. Days passed. Then weeks. And slowly, her stories began to run dry, as well as her talent and her energy. She wandered aimlessly, with no strength left to even look ahead of her. On the hundredth day, she told her final tale. Her voice cracked. Her hands shook. Her eyes blurred with exhaustion. The next day, she stopped. Not even stopped - she fell to her knees, too tired to walk. She looked up - and found herself back in her own village, the one she had left one hundred and one days ago. The three houses still stood on the hump of land. With impatience, she turned her eyes to where her little house once stood. She would be so happy to see it standing firm on the foundation the jestress had promised her to fix. This, the girl thought, would be the one thing to give her a reason to keep going. But… the little wooden house stood dark and empty… with one side sunk deep into the soft greedy belly of the swamp. The girl felt deceived. She trusted the jestress and believed she would return to something strong, but nothing changed. The girl was broken. She had nothing left to lean on. Hollow. She lost her home, and her stories also left her for good. Everything started spinning around her - the dear swamp creatures, the swamp itself, the three houses on the hump, the jestress’ face, and her tiny wooden house… It all blurred into fog, which clouded her thoughts and her spirit. She closed her eyes and surrendered. She fell, and slid into the doom of her thoughts. The swamp creatures saw her breathless body, and they mourned. Though it was hard, they put all their strength together to lift the house out of the swamp. They found two big sticks, poked them into the ground, and placed the tiny wooden house on top, to stop it from sliding. At least for some time. They called this place Domovina — a burial site for the girl’s body. They carried her body there in a slow procession. Then laid her body inside the Domovina, and set it ablaze, saying goodbye to the little girl as she traveled between the worlds. And as the fire swallowed the wood, and the girl, and her stories, they whispered their farewells. A long time passed before the fire went out. Both the house and the girl’s body were gone. She wandered too far and became a Slave of Doom.

"Attis in Caledon" uses the full force of Scots to create a contemporary version of galliambic metre, the ancient poetic form of Cybele's centuries-long trans priesthood, and the poetry is complemented by original music and archival material woven together into a new work of noise alchemy. We ran through the ancient pines of Coille Choire Chuilc in the foothills of Beinn Os to bring you this magic.

Félicia Atkinson - Wilhelmina, Glaciers Chasms Félicia Atkinson - Wilhelmina, Glaciers Chasms 10 September 2026 6:15 pm - 7:00 pm Following her commissioned pieces Ni Envers Ni Endroit Que cette Roche Brulante (INA GRM 2022) and Thinking Iceberg (CTM 2024), the French composer Félicia Atkinson comes back to her interest for nature and its preservation, as well as her interest in painting. Wilhelmina, Glaciers Chasms, is an electro-acoustic piece for voice, field recordings, fender rhodes and electronics, inspired by the paintings of Wilhelmina Barns-Graham, especially ‘Glacier Chasm’ from 1951. Transparencies, blue and grey, super-positions, free forms, resonance and sustains will infuse in this new electro-acoustic piece dedicated to the XXth century female Scottish painter. A Radiophrenia Live-to-Air commission first broadcast on 23rd November, 2025. Recorded live at the Glad Café, Glasgow. Biography: For Félicia Atkinson, human voices inhabit an ecology alongside and within many other things that don’t speak, in the conventional sense: landscapes, images, books, memories, ideas. The french electro-acoustic composer and visual artist makes music that animates these other possible voices in conversation with her own, collaging field recording, midi instrumentation, and snippets of essayistic language in both french and english. Her own voice, always shifting to make space, might whisper from the corner or assume another character’s tone. Atkinson uses composing as a way to process imaginative and creative life, frequently engaging with the work of visual artists, filmmakers, and novelists. Her layered compositions tell stories that alternately stretch and fold time and place, stories in which she is the narrator but not the protagonist. Atkinson lives on the wild coast of Normandy and has played music since the early 2000s. https://www.shelter-press.com/felicia-atkinson/ https://feliciaatkinson.bandcamp.com/ Morten Poulsen A Different Set of Ears: The Egholm Alliance Morten Poulsen A Different Set of Ears: The Egholm Alliance 10 September 2026 7:00 pm - 7:45 pm A Different Set of Ears: The Egholm Alliance is a sonic art project and audio essay that takes its point of departure in the Danish national government’s controversial decision to build a highway across Egholm – a rural island located in the Limfjord waters near the city of Aalborg. Egholm is often promoted by the local municipality as a calm and silent refuge, and as a unique natural setting just outside the post-industrial urban periphery. The island is home to much animal and plant life that will be greatly impacted by the mega-project Egholmlinjen. In this audio essay, Morten listens together with the island – its inhabitants and local citizens who organize against the highway, but also the fauna and flora – including a very special willow tree. Weaving together a post-human sensation of entanglement, the audio essay proposes a change in our listening position. Artist bio: Morten Poulsen works at the intersections between sound art, artistic research, social engagement, and activism. With sound, listening, and participatory-based processes, he explores socio-political structures, often focusing on gender, power relations, climate crisis, and the ways in which they intersect. His artistic work has been shown across different art institutions such as The Engine Room (London), Radio Alhara, Kunsthal Aarhus, SixtyEight Art Institute, and c4 projects in Copenhagen (DK). His artistic research has been presented at CTM Festival, Berlin (DE), Trans+ Virtual Center of Excellence, London (UK), and PARSE Biennial for Artistic Research, Gothenburg (SE).

The work draws from two months of field recording using radio receivers, hydrophones, and contact microphones to capture transmissions and vibrations propagating through sand, water, soil, trees, and border infrastructure, revealing how security apparatuses and environmental forces co-constitute this disputed terrain. Originally a four-channel sound installation, "Radiant Center" is presented in stereo for Radiophrenia. Artist bio: Hans Kuzmich is a Belarus-born, Los Angeles-based artist whose work in transmission arts, media installation, and performance investigates gender as an interface between subjects and the state. Currently completing a PhD in Film and Digital Media at the University of California, Santa Cruz, Kuzmich holds an MFA from UCLA and a BFA from Cooper Union. Recent exhibitions and residencies include Sonic Nomads, Seoul; SPAM New Media Festival, Seattle; Sound + Environment, Newcastle upon Tyne, UK; Nida Art Colony, Lithuania; Wave Farm, Acra, NY; Vermont Studio Center, Johnson, VT; Studios at MASS MoCA, North Adams, MA; and SOMA, Mexico City.

While industrial machinery crushes, sorts, and processes stones at high speed in gravel plants, rivers simultaneously erode rocks into sand grains over geological timescales. The co-existence of these contrasting temporal structures generates a desynchronization that Hartmut Rosa diagnoses in accelerated production processes. The soundpiece was performed at the opening of Memory & Sustainability at Bern University of Applied Sciences. It integrates field recordings from a Swiss gravel plant, gravel pit, and underwater captures from the Aare River in Bern—digitally processed through modulation, fragmentation, and granulation. During the live performance, these processed materials were combined with synthesizer and stones collected from the river, live-modulated using contact microphones and effect devices. The piece is conceived as a circular composition that alternates between industrial dynamics and geological time, exploring varied textures and movements of material transformation while seeking moments of resonance. Artist bio: Andrea Rickhaus completed her Bachelor in Stagedesign at the Hamburg University of Fine Arts and her Master in Art Education at Bern University of the Arts in 2019. Her artistic practice has shifted from physical-material work towards the acoustic-auditory realm, with music now at its core. She explores tension fields through spatial compositions, translating textures and materialities into sound – moving between the in- and the outside, between improvisation and choreography. Her work challenges binarities, navigating co-existence of contrasting states and temporalities. Rickhaus teaches at Bern Academy of the Arts and is currently producing her first EP as Etna ROM.

Farah Azrak & Dima Mabsout - Call For Humbaba - for radio. 10 September 2026 10:40 pm - 11:00 pm Call for Humbaba is a radio incantation summoning the lost guardian of the Cedar Forest. In the Epic of Gilgamesh, Humbaba is slain and the sacred forest felled to build the gates of Uruk—an early myth of extraction and ecological violence. Five millennia later, Lebanon’s cedars, once vast and revered across ancient texts, survive only in fragmented reserves and are increasingly endangered by accelerating changing climate. This broadcast transmits a call across time. Drawing from Tablet V, which vividly describes the forest’s ancient soundscape, the work reconstructs an acoustic cedar grove through layered samples, field recordings, and archival readings in Sumerian, evoking echoes of a landscape that no longer exists. By sending this signal into the airwaves, the piece asks whether sound can find and reawaken the guardian spirit, Humababa, for it to return and guide us through the thicket of our times. Artist bio: Farah Azrak is a transdisciplinary polyvocal artist from Syria, venturing into performance, voice, sound, poetry, collage by interweaving processes and perceptive pedagogy. Coming from the field of somatics and her love for ecology, her work pivots around the body and voice through relational fields of inhabited environments and extended imaginaries. Dima Mabsout is a Lebanese multidisciplinary artist and social practitioner whose work explores land, extraction, memory, and landscape as living archives. Across film, performance, installation, and material practices, she engages collaborative, research-driven projects that blend ritual, experiment, and ancient narratives with contemporary climate and ecological concerns.

The work, Weetootla incorporating field recordings, Adnyamathanha language and text, acknowledges the ongoing connection of the Adnyamathanha to Country. This is a place of ancient time, people, culture, land, rich in flora and fauna. Here time collapses; here and now, then and was, all mingling. Land worn down holds a great strata of stories. Always multiple ways of reading the place. In this ancient timeline our own living a speck. As settlers, how do we find a way to relate to, form a relationship with, this place, and with the original people of this land, beyond our preconceptions? How can we allow ourselves to be disrupted, to open, to experience other ways of being, listening? What does it mean to “be in place’? Field recording (Weetootla Gorge). Text. Spoken Word.

Instagram beejaytrix 2) Ariel Mioduser - Horas (Hours) Horas (Spanish for “Hours”) is a sound work built from recordings of emblematic church bells across the city of Rosario, Argentina, originally captured by Emiliana Arias Silva. The composition unfolds as a nocturnal sequence, evoking a sleepless night in which time advances hour by hour, each interval punctuated by the recurring toll of bells. Throughout the piece, a steady, regular sound persists, marking the idea of passing seconds as a constant pulse that reinforces the awareness of time’s flow. Rather than narrating events, the work dwells on duration itself: the suspended state in which nothing occurs while time continues to move forward. Horas articulates a tension between impatience and resignation, between the desire for change and the acceptance of temporal inevitability. The bells function as temporal markers and psychological triggers, pointing to an existential condition in which time persists regardless of action, intention, or outcome. Born in Argentina.

Cristina Marras - A woman in her 30s The tension is palpable: the writer furiously pounds the keys of the typewriter searching for the perfect setting for the story she wants to tell, but inspiration is slow to come. Yet with every attempt, the environment becomes vividly clear, if only the phone would stop ringing! Immerse yourself in a cinematic sound tour de force, and you too will feel as if you are there, on a warm, humid night filled with cicadas, peeking over the shoulder at what the fingers are tapping on the keys of the old typewriter. Created for Audio Flux 06 [creative tension]. I'm an indigenous Sardinian from an island that pushed me to travel young (10 years in Germany, 20+ in Australia), then back home. Moving through cultures sparked my fascination with how memories shape places and how sound shapes memories and belonging. Working at national radio during the podcast boom let me experiment with immersive sound narratives. Now an independent producer, when I'm not playing the hustle game, I use my time collaborating with fellow creators worldwide, using audio to weave connections between people, places, and experiences. http://www.cristinamarras.com https://www.linkedin.com/in/cristinamarras https://www.instagram.com/addressapproximate MY PORTFOLIO https://www.canva.com/design/DAG8C0iwIu4/apRjKmGPkXcCNDmKaONAUg/view 4) Costas Frantzis - The Pebble The pebble is a soundscape composition that begins with the imaginative moment in which a pebble “falls asleep” and is carried along by the currents of the sea. At the heart of the composition, the stone is examined as a sound-producing source, where its rigid material, through various processes, acquires mobility, rhythm, and sonic textures suggesting fluidity, fragmentation, and swirling motion. The resulting sound material is sometimes presented independently and sometimes embedded within field recordings, inviting the listener to immerse themselves in an imaginative and mysterious soundscape. Costas Frantzis is a musician and sound artist based in Greece. He is a member of the Hellenic Electroacoustic Music Composers Association (HELMCA). He explores music and sound through various creative projects and collaborations with artists in the broader field of performing arts (theatre, dance, performance art, interactive audiovisual installations, etc.). In 2016 he founded Kentro Artistic Group together with director Eleni Parginou. https://www.facebook.com/costas.frantzis.5 https://soundcloud.com/kostas-frantzis-933374300 https://costasfrantzis.wixsite.com/costasfrantzis Radiophrenia Shorts 38B Radiophrenia Shorts 38B 10 September 2026 11:30 pm - 11:59 pm 1 Martín Matus Lerner - Más Allá (8:07) 2 Eduardo Espinosa - Water, metal and stuff (4:40) 3 Jamie Perera & Felipe Viveros – ManifestX (10:32) 4 Water Feature - Various Birds - bearded wren (1:05) 1) Martín Matus Lerner - Más Allá Sound poetry with electronic media based on the poem "Beyond Now" by Jayce Salloum. Soundscape of a future past. Composition by M. Matus Lerner. Voices of Perla Ibarra Montes de Oca and J. Salloum. Martín Matus Lerner: electronic musician and sound artist, his research and creative focus includes the design of interfaces applied to music, electronic instrument making, and experimentation with "oblique technologies" (low-tech, circuit bending). He holds a degree in Electroacoustic Composition from the National University of Quilmes (UNQ), where he teaches undergraduate and graduate courses and conducts research. He also holds a Master's degree in Electronic Arts (UNTREF). He was the founder and director (2019-2025) of the Master's Program in Sound Art (UNQ). https://linktr.ee/matuslerner 2) Eduardo Espinosa - Water, metal and stuff Water, Metal and Stuff is an immersive study of textures and elemental collisions. Built from original field recordings and studio experiments, the piece explores the tension between the organic fluidity of water and the rigid, resonant properties of metal. Through a series of sonic vignettes, the work investigates how these materials interact, corrode, and dialogue with one another. In the context of our current ecological crisis, the piece serves as a reminder of the raw materiality of our world—often overlooked in a digital age. Designed as a pure radio-art experience, it utilizes the medium’s unique ability to decontextualize sound, turning everyday "stuff" into a complex architectural landscape of vibrations. It is an invitation to listen closely to the friction between the natural and the man-made. Eduardo Espinosa is a Colombian composer and sound artist working with acoustic material, electronic processes, and structural transformation. His practice focuses on timbre, resonance, and the gradual destabilization of recognizable sonic materials, often combining traditional instruments with synthesis and layered processing. He holds a Master’s degree in Composition from Ohio University. His work has been presented at Radiophrenia and broadcast on Resonance FM. He is particularly interested in radio as a space for concentrated listening and perceptual transformation. https://www.linkedin.com/in/eduardo-espinosa-composer/ https://soundcloud.com/duardospinosa 3) Jamie Perera & Felipe Viveros – ManifestX ManifestX queers the binary of the word “Manifesto”, in non-fixed statements and non-linear works exploring identity in the Capitalocene. It was initiated in “Identity Dialogues”, a series of conversations with Felipe Viveros and Jamie Perera, and extended to artists in activist, queer and ecological communities. ManifestX makes the compelling case for reclaiming identity as a spectrum of manifestations that rebel against colonial categorisation and celebrate interconnectedness through the lens of non, pre, and post form. It is based on the conviction that opening horizons beyond capitalist realism and catastrophism requires rewilding of its toxic imaginary and limited vocabulary, extending what it means to be human, including as part of the more-than-human world. Jamie, Felipe and other collaborators create artistic works that expand on the positions of ManifestX as an ongoing provocation. This piece is a sound meditation on identity in flux, in emergence through different states of being. Jamie Perera is Jamie Perera is a composer, sound artist and producer from East London. His work is inspired by transformation in the Anthropocene, with themes that juxtapose nature, people, places and timescales. He combines electronic and post-classical production with field recordings, data, and video. Felipe Viveros is a British-Chilean writer, independent researcher, artist and strategist. Felipe's work focuses on the intersection of movement building, digital storytelling, policy and systems change. Felipe holds an MsC from Schumacher College and is a member of the UN Harmony with Nature initiative. https://www.instagram.com/jamie_perera/ https://www.instagram.com/nawelcura/ https://www.jamieperera.com/ 4) Water Feature - Various Birds - bearded wren A collection of somewhat convincing birdsong and foley created entirely on a small battery-powered drum machine. Many imaginary and fanciful 'species' including the Pond Bather, Golden Nuthatch and Brown Yipper are featured. A long-form sound collage of many species is the central work, and 'close-ups' are also included. In one sense the project is a sincere tribute to bird identification records and tapes one would find in garden centres in the 90s, of which the artists have a large collection. In another sense it is an uncanny objection to a contemporary relationship with nature that romanticises and objectifies it from a safe distance. The sounds have been sampled in records by other artists, used in an extended arrangement for an installation in the Jardin Des Plantes in Paris, presented with narration by a supposed ornithologist, and are played constantly via an internet radio station. Water Feature is a 'collage band' formed of several contributors, creating utopian, absurd and low-fidelity environmental(ist) music. There is a strong reactionary and naive spirit to the project which aims to replace lifeless, boring, synthetic ambient music with an alternative chaotic, colourful and organic musique concrète. Recording and composition revolves around improvisation with cheap gear, tape-splicing and other uncivilised practices and accidents. 3 records (including Various Birds) have been released through the DIY Morsels label/collective. https://variousbirds.net https://morsels.website https://www.instagram.com/morsels.website/ • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •	11 Pedro Figueiredo - Scattering Pedro Figueiredo - Scattering 11 September 2026 12:00 am - 12:30 am This piece focuses on the kind of radio most people imagine when thinking about radio: AM and FM radio. They are cheap to operate and listen to, and very much present anywhere in the world. I was fascinated by my grandfather's radio. It was a wooden box almost my size, with the names of dozens of unknown cities written on a giant dial. We shaped and reshaped radio to make voices clearer. In the process we coloured everything else. I have always loved the way the medium colours the content flowing through it. A radio transmission will face several obstacles. Variations in air pressure, poor weather, and more often than not a literal mountain. All these expose its weak points and introduce randomness and faults. But there is some comfort in the noise, and the sense of a small victory when you point an antenna to the right spot. Artist bio: Pedro Figueiredo is a sound artist and software developer living in the southeast coast of England. His work stems from a love of imperfections, repetition, and stillness; on the verge of breaking but not quite. He creates listening experiences and site-specific works, by bringing together warm electronic sounds, field recordings, and tape hiss. He releases music as Stray wool.

Far from being just another reflection on this isolated and strange period, it is a verbal and sonic rumination on communication in the age of online platforms and social media, on the listening practices of users, of genuine YouTube genres and list-like pseudo-narrative created by digital tools and services (AI transcriptions, Fiverr, data organization tools - and online videoconferencing). It proudly features guest voices Angela Sawyer, Lexie Mountain, Charmaine Lee, and Gregory Whitehead, along unknown individuals who provided their voices as a gig-economical service, and computer voices known from internet memes. While the generation of the texts and the composition implemented state-of-the-art consumer technologies, some of them seem already outdated since the overwhelming AI boom of the last years. Artist bios: Duncan Harrison, artist from the United Kingdom working with recorded sound, voice, text, actions, images, ideas…. Active for 20+ years, mostly within obscure experimental/noise/weird undergrounds, evidenced via activities hosted by the likes of Regional Bears (UK), Joy De Vivre (ITA), Chocolate Monk (UK), Index Clean (AUS), De Player (NL), Colour Out of Space (UK), Tusk Festival (UK, Click Festival (DK) and LUFF (CH). “Marc Matter first came around as part of Institut fuer Feinmotorik, The Durian Brothers, diskant label and Salon des Amateurs and has been politely shoving vocal recordings through various sorts of blenders ever since."

Building on his work in linguistics, they uses a linguistic lens to explore ancient tradition and mythologies and merge them with modern contexts to dream of futures that engage with the degrading ecological realities of the present. Jahan typically mixes Central Asian instrumentation with industrial and doom-metal motifs within traditional improvisational frameworks. They advocate within the internationalist community radio movement, featuring and hosting shows on HKCR, 3CR…but in contrast they often work with found objects (physically or digitally) as a means of representing the locale.

The work uses audio recordings of my travels around Georgia. They appear at the joints between recordings of improvisational sessions of my play on a broken piano in an underground passage in Kutaisi. The instrument forces me to break my own patterns, to treat playing not only as a musical performance, but also as a plastic, sensual one. All I can do is try and adapt. With almost no playing skills, no deep knowledge of music theory. Through self-acceptance and the realization that only I can make this instrument sound this way. We reveal each other's uniqueness. It is a symbiosis of two broken things. An underground passage is a transition from one thing to another. But what if this momentary frame had a sound and a duration? Artist bio: I was born in Russia in the city of Kostroma and then moved with my mother to St. Petersburg. At 16, I got a guitar and started writing songs. I quickly stopped succeeding because I didn't like studying and thought I knew everything there was to know. At 20, I started trying to make electronic music. Since then, I've been writing dance tracks and meta-ironic mixes. In 2023, I emigrated from Russia and began learning about contemporary art. As a sound artist, I am interested in the fundamental nature of sine waves and properties of music beyond its musical content.

The collective comes together on the first Friday of every month at 3:02pm ET using custom-made software. Some sessions don't have a description and the one on October 3th doesn't have even a title. However, some have a more detail description as in The Spiral: The record groove or a strip of tape moves forward by circling, slipping into another layer each time. That coiling motion echoes how time forms paths that don’t quite repeat. The spiral frames the way patterns return at different scales, from tiny biological curves to movements that shift light, air, and weather. A shared structure keeps resurfacing and shows how things grow and reorganize, how memory drifts, and how repetition comes back slightly off axis, opening another turn. Artist bio: The Conduction Series is a collaborative live radio broadcast produced by sound and transmission artists across the Americas on Wave Farm’s WGXC 90.7-FM Radio for Open Ears in New York’s Upper Hudson Valley.

The piece weaves together improvised conversations between Rita Pacheco and Harry Irvine about global warming, mass extinction and the climate emergency, while also reflecting on childhood experiences of religion and the relevance of spiritual ecology. Both are free improvisers, musicians and poets, contributing spoken poems, field recordings, instrumental textures and sung passages, all captured on a TASCAM recorder or, occasionally, a mobile phone. They mention David Abram’s The Spell of the Sensuous and incorporate quotations from Rainer Maria Rilke and Gary Snyder, echoing the book’s ecological philosophy. The resulting experimental composition is an intimate, thought provoking conversation that situates sound, poetry and ecological reflection in dialogue with the river’s more-than-human lived environment. Artist bio: Rita Pacheco & Harry Irvine are Glasgow based free improvisers who explore sound together. Their practice blends spontaneous composition, field recordings and spoken poetry, turning everyday objects and natural surroundings into collaborators. In 2025 they recorded an album that captures their emergent, process driven dialogue. They share a studio in the Outerspaces network, using it for experimental sessions. In the latter half of 2026 they will host gatherings exploring connection through play and sound making, complemented by nature walks, food making and film screenings that invite reflections rooted in curiosity and respect for the more-than-human and the Living Earth.

He manages to enter the hammam by walking in the city at night without a torch which was an act punishable by night patrols with forcing one to work in the furnace. The furnace worker helps him sneak into the bath-house to mourn. While singing the melisma and the words Baynans 3ysh wa millh بيننا عيش و ملح "We have shared bread and salt", the poet’s tears drop in maqam rhythms. While walking out of the hammam, a pair of Desert owls become the confirmation that his cry is heard. The shāʿir foresees our murderous geopolitical present: the diversion of Jordan River and potash extraction in the lowest place on earth.

Hauntological in character, they approach place obliquely—through echoes, textures, and residues rather than clear narrative—treating movement itself as the work’s focus. The pieces are distinguished by their recording sites: Lôn-y-Bwbach near Llanddyfnan, layered with historical and folk memory, and the beach below Castell Mawr at Traeth Coch, where tides, river flow, and birds shape an exposed acoustic field. Across both, field recordings intertwine with the artist’s compositions and worn fragments of Welsh song, appearing like eroded sonic artefacts. The shared title draws on the myth of Llech-Tal-Môn as preserved and elaborated by Wil Ifan o Fôn in Bonedd y Cymru neu Lyfr Hynafion Byd, which describes an ancient cave system imagined as secretly linking road, farmland, hill, and coast—an unseen subterranean architecture mirrored in the works’ shifting, tunnel-like sound world. Tristan makes soundworks based on the psychogeographic charge from Ynys Môn (the isle of Anglesey). They work towards a ritualistic, degraded aesthetic informed by the elements and ancient sites in the environs. Recent works have appeared on the ‘Listen to the Voice of Fire’ collections: ‘The Shining Pyramid’, ‘The Surface of Past Time’ and 'Dylan Eil Ton'. Discreet Archive released YrbrydMôn in 2025 and Tristan collaborated with poet Rhys Trimble on the album Ynys Dywyll released by Ty Cerdd. https://tristanrhyswilliams.com/ https://www.instagram.com/trissyrhys/ Radiophrenia Shorts 7B Radiophrenia Shorts 7B 11 September 2026 8:30 am - 9:00 am 1 Paul Collins - Radio Spots - Figures Rythmiques (1:00) 2 Wolfgang Pérez - I AM TRANSFORMING (5:02) 3 Ellie Cherry - We All Became Moss (8:30) 4 KAZUYA ISHIGAMI - Beyond Houge Houge-Jaku (6:58) 5 Sooji - First Loves #1 - Gisele she walks, she floats (4:39) 1) Paul Collins - Radio Spots - Figures Rythmiques This is a series of 17 one-minute radio-spots that use the radio itself as the primary source material. Random FM stations, in both Canada and France, were recorded and then manipulated using a variety of experimental methods and techniques.

It can be natural (for instance, a tree) or manmade (for instance, a building). Take a picture of it. Study its structure. How is it put together? What are its units? What is the relationship between the units and the whole? Use that structure as a template to compose a 3-5 minute piece." This is the result. I took a photo of beautiful cliffs in Portugal (Aljezur) and was inspired by how they look like frozen waterfalls. They look static, frozen in time, but really they are always transforming, shaped by the waves - over millions of years - deep time sedimentation. I carefully chose 6 notes on my Juno 60 each one entering after 30 seconds + some harsh piano attacks to symbolize the heavy waves. Wolfgang Pérez is a half-German, half-Spanish songwriter, arranger, and guitarist from Germany, currently based in Cologne. With three albums released - WHO CARES WHO CARES (2021), AHORA (2024), Só Ouço (2025) - Wolfgang made his way into stages such as Moers Festival and the Cologne Philharmonie. He experimented with different formats and styles in his career, mixing pop, chamber music and soundscape composition. More recently Pérez has been diving into the rich Brazilian culture in his last endeavour - “Só Ouço”. The album has been critically acclaimed with Reviews in The Wire, Mojo Magazine and NPR Music. https://wolfgangperez.bandcamp.com/album/s-ou-o https://wolfgangperez.bandcamp.com/album/memorias-fantasmas https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bx2lc3olcHM https://www.instagram.com/wolfgangperezmusic/ 3) Ellie Cherry - We All Became Moss "We All Became Moss" is a soundscape created entirely from field recordings gathered in the Scottish Highlands. Rather than present the field recordings in their literal forms, I wanted to shape them into something more representational of the abstract emotional landscapes I often find myself wandering when returning to memories of the mountains. Shapes shift; emotions blur. Flora, fauna, my flesh, and the ferns all dissolve into something old and strange. Ellie Cherry is a composer and sound artist whose work is a surreal amalgam of acoustic and electronic elements that explores the nebulous spaces between reality and perception. Fascinated with the microscopic subtleties of natural phenomena, her artistic practice incorporates found sound and improvisation, embracing the duality of acceptance and control, questioning notions of ownership and exactness in how we create and experience sound. https://www.elliecherrymusic.com/ 4) KAZUYA ISHIGAMI - Beyond Houge Houge-Jaku "Houge-Jaku" means to throw away one's attachments. "Houge" means to throw away. "Houge Houge-Jaku" means to throw away "Houge-Jaku". In order to live comfortably, we should not be attached. However, if we are too concerned about not being attached, we may end up becoming attached to it. Furthermore, beyond attachment, where do we go? KAZUYA ISHIGAMI (b. 1972, Osaka/JAPAN) is a composer, sound designer, sound performer and sound engineer in the field of Electroacoustic/Acousmatic/Post-Acousmatic/Ambient/Noise, etc. Since 1992 he has created under the name of DARUIN. He began using computers for composition and improvisation in 1994 with the programming language Max/MSP and others. His pieces have been performed at CCMC (Japan), FUTURA (France), MUSLAB (Mexico), SILENCE (Italy), ICMC (2015_USA/TEXAS), Music From Japan 2020 (USA/NY) among others. He has an independent label, NEUS-318, and has released more than 100 works. https://soundcloud.com/kazuya_ishigami https://kazuyaishigami.bandcamp.com/ https://neus318.bandcamp.com/ https://omodaru.bandcamp.com/ 5) Sooji - First Loves #1 - Gisele she walks, she floats First Loves #1 is recorded on the Sequential Prophet VS from 1986. It is a series of vignettes derived from improvisations from a single session, a brief dive into the capabilities of this instrument and was the precursor to First Loves: Sequential Prophet 10, released in 2022. Sooji is a Naarm-based musician creating works that explore adventurous sonic territories through performance, composition and spatialised sound installations. Working primarily with synthesisers and electronics, she embraces the unexpected outcomes that arise from collaboration and improvisation. Influenced by diverse sources such as classical music and Italian electronic composers, Sooji’s intuitive approach to composition creates works that sit outside of traditional genre classification and often manifest as surreal sonic landscapes. https://eternalmusicprojects.bandcamp.com/ Neolithic Cannibals Radio Club Eastbourne Neolithic Cannibals Radio Club Eastbourne 11 September 2026 9:00 am - 10:00 am Neolithic Cannibals is a socially engaged sound art project explored through the deep time history of Neolithic sites. Simon originally co-created the project with education equality campaign group Class Divide and young artists in Whitehawk for an exhibition at Brighton Festival 2024. For this second iteration, Simon shared his practice on the Neolithic causewayed enclosures and barrows of Eastbourne, working with young artists to listen deeply to the unheard through a series of sound workshops in August 2025. The material gathered through experimental fieldwork sessions was sequenced live for this radiophonic collage and includes field recordings and fragments of a pop up spatial sound installation, a flint knapping demonstration, poetry and stone drum machine workouts. Artist bio: Simon James is a self trained artist from a working class background listening to the unheard and underheard. On this project he collaborated with Vanessa, Mollie, Corey, Daisy, Jess, Kitty, Harper and Florence. Features the voices of flint knapper Grant Williams and archaeologist Steve Patton. Co-prodruced with The Devonshire Collective. Supported by the National Trust and the Changing Chalk Community Grants Scheme, and funded by The National Lottery Heritage Fund, with thanks to National Lottery players.

Just before the final shift, the Svalbard Museum’s Anatolijs Venovcevs and Haakon Unhammer Kvaale negotiated access and the miner Tarjei provided an expert ear. Deeper underground the tunnels got lower and the temperature dropped, each three-hour trip was experienced in a pulsing red zone of intensity yet I was only recording the edges of things - not working there for 10 hours straight on fourteen-day shifts with responsibilities for my own and my co-workers' safety. The sheer ferocity of the environment frequently defeated my field recording abilities, often too panicked to focus on the microphone or the recorder settings, these recordings of the six (or seven) conveyor belts clip and distort, surge, falter, harshness that contrasts with several conversations that share knowledge, care, awe and occasionally laughter. Artist bio: Angus Carlyle researches environments and atmospheres as embodiments of stress and relief, with listening becoming writing, recordings, photographs and films (and rarely performances). He often works alone but also shares creativity : since 2011 he engaged with Kozo Hiramatsu and Rupert Cox on projects related to civilian and military overflights; between 2005 and 2025, he collaborated with Cathy Lane and others on the Creative Research in Sound Arts Practice (CRiSAP) research centre; since 2021, he explored the Shoreham coastline with Simon James; and he worked with Katrin Losleben, Za Barron, Paula Ryggvik Mikalsen and Britta Sweers on Arctic Auditories.

The play resists easy explanation, using fragmented, repetitive language and unconventional structure--numbered "Acts" and "Parts" instead of specific characters--that challenge traditional notions of dramatic presentation, thus forcing the reader to experience Stein's writing process itself. Here the reader must use "causal, semantic, and reduced listening" (see Michel Chion) to engage Stein's stream of consciousness--shifting contexts, changing voices, double entendres, and erotic word play, rather than being passive recipients of dramatic "meaning." My librettist Adam Frank made a treatment that used four actors performing the play, recorded on four separate audio tracks. I then took up the task of transforming their "speech" into "song" using analog and digital sound processing, including vocoders, pitch shifters, and pitch correction. As to what it means, I refer you to Stein's own words: "I have given up analysis." Artist Bio: Traversing classical modernism, experimental music, progressive rock, free jazz, and post-techno electronica, Warner's musical career has militantly transgressed musical boundaries. After starting out as a drummer in garage bands, Warner decided to become a composer upon discovering Edgard Varèse through the early music of Frank Zappa. He attended Princeton University, earning an M.F.A. and Ph.D. in computer music and composition with Milton Babbitt and Paul Lansky, and experimental music and improvisation with J.K. Randall. Warner has studied, taught, and performed widely in places such as NYC, Helsinki, Buenos Aires, Rome, Aarhus, Denmark, and most recently at CalArts in Los Angeles. danielwarnercomposer.godaddysites.com Rebecca Wilcox and Hannah Ellul - Knot Rebecca Wilcox and Hannah Ellul - Knot 11 September 2026 11:00 am - 11:30 am Knot knits ideas around laboured language with moments of affective rupture—encounters where the material world and the sensing body come up against each other in unexpected ways. Working with voice, field recording and sound synthesis, we hone in on speech and sound as rhythm, depth and distance. We are interested in strategies of repetition, in the echo, the copy, the cast, the rehearsal, the mimic, the parrot, the ape. We are curious about the spatial and affective relationships of the copy–how intimacy and distance, attachment and detachment co-exist there. And in its time, too, in how it comes to be a kind of asynchronous conversation, with its own boundary-maintaining tendencies and commitments. Artist bios: Rebecca Wilcox lives in Glasgow and works with writing, audio and performance, often using voice as a tool. She's interested in apperception, infrastructures and the poetics produced between sensory engagements and the written and spoken word. Hannah Ellul is a Glasgow-based artist and musician working across forms, mostly in sound, publishing and performance. She often works collaboratively, including as part of the project Psykick Dancehall, which produced cross-disciplinary explorations of sound and aural experience with other artists and collectives. Together they have produced work for Broadside Gallery, Glasgow; Experimental Sound Studio, Chicago; BBC Tectonics Festival; Takuroku; and Radiophrenia.

The catalogue is made up of several dozen sound recordings featuring squeaky, creaking, screeching or otherwise noisy swing sets. The reasons for swing noise are various – loose connections or fasteners, aging of the materials used in the construction of the swing, weather conditions affecting them, as well as the load and overload to which the swing is subjected. Although most of the recordings feature swings that only minimally differ in terms of mechanics, construction and materials used, their noise is never identical, providing a sound testimony to the environment in which the swing is placed. Swinging, photos – Ada Ruszkiewicz; Idea, recording, editing and mixing – Ernests Vilsons. Artist bio: Ernests Vilsons is a Latvian composer living in Rīga. He writes music for acoustic instruments and electronic means, creates sound installations and performances, and collects field recordings. He is interested in harmony, time, silence, chance, representation and transcription. E. Vilsons studied at the Institute of Sonology at the Royal Conservatoire in The Hague. His master's research project “Well-Structured Vocalizations: An Attempt To Imitate Birdsong” was awarded the Konrad Boehmer Foundation Prize in 2020.

For nearly 10 years now, right in front of our house has been a forest of evergreen broad-leaved trees in the satoyama. I can observe the lives of creatures other than humans there. During the rainy season, moss clogged our gutters, and the sound of raindrops falling through them began to create an unpredictable rhythm. I played the electric piano in my room while listening to the rhythm of the raindrops. My family recorded it on Zoom. When the “Higurashi” cicadas start chirping, the rainy season ends. It’s always like that. Collecting the sounds of my home and jamming with them soothes my sound-filled mind. The snoring of a friend who sleeps well at our house sounds like a didgeridoo player offering a prayer for a good night’s sleep. There are moments like my solo performance at YoshimiO at Shiso-kan, a place dear to us. And sometimes I go to a studio with people I trust and pour out my desire to bring all these sounds together. I love singing while channeling my breath through a flute—sometimes a KHEAN, sometimes an ARGOZA. わたしたちの家で過ごすことが好きです。もう10年ちかく家の目の前には里山における照葉樹林の森があります。人以外の生き物の暮らしを観察することもできます。梅雨のあいだ、家の雨どいに苔がつまり、雨どいを通って落ちる雨垂れ音は予測のつかないリズムを刻みだしました。うちの雨垂れビートを聴きながら部屋の中でエレピを弾きました。家のひとはZOOMで記録しました。ひぐらしが鳴き始めると梅雨はおわります。いつもそう。家の音の収集とその音たちとのセッションは音にあふれたわたしの脳を癒します。うちでよく寝れた友人のいびきは良き睡眠がとれますようにと祈りのディジリドゥー奏者のようです。わたしたちの大事な場所、四三館でのYoshimiO solo演奏など。そしてときどき気の知れたスタジオにいき、それらをまとめたいという想いを吐き出します。わたしはわたしの呼吸を笛に通しながら歌うことが好きです。ときには KHEANに、ときにはARGOZAに。 YoshimiO _ Voice, Ereki Bass Tanpura, Keyboard Synthesizer, Electric Piano, Effects, Khean, Argoza, Minmin, Percussion HAMA _ Reyong, Gangza Kawamura Kohey-Sai _ Gangza Engineered by Kabamix Sound collected by Ooido Syoujou mixed by YoshimiO big thanks to shisokan ”四三館” A Radiophrenia commission produced with the support of Creative Scotland. 1.

This hilarious Audio Drama takes place 70 year ago in a small southern Italian rural village. A widowed mother praises her only daughter as virtuous and dedicated housewife. The woman, very proud of herself, tells a lady neighbor how, with the help of the priest, she arranged a wealthy marriage for the girl in spite of their limited means. The nosy neighbor is obviously very interested in knowing all details, and inquires about the whole negotiation. Only afterwards, with the nonchalant ease of an experienced gossiper, she reveals to the poor mother that everyone in the village knows that the marriage must be celebrated but only because her “virtuous” daughter is pregnant. Artist bio: Monica Miuccio & Massimo Daví began IRIDE PROJECT in 2013. Their electronic and audio drama works have been performed in Ireland, Italy, Mexico, Spain, Macedonia, United Kingdom, Finland, Germany, Czech Republic, Portugal and Ecuador in form of acousmatic performances and radio broadcasts. Monica is a performer and writer, her literary works have been awarded in various literary competitions and published in prestigious editions such as the Psychology magazine “Tecniche Conversazionali” (Milan, IT). Her scripts, poems and tales are the core of IRIDE PROJECT Audio Drama production. Massimo is a pianist and electronic/electroacoustic music composer.

The intention was to create a muffled, underwater soundscape, completely submerged from the world above. The core material (Shimmer, Shoals, Sea Statues, Pulse) elicits the muffled shimmer of the shallower waters of the coral reef. Suffused light, the delicate movement of flora and fauna, and the gentle playfulness of the waves are depicted by the rhythmic drive and melodic figures used. The other four pieces involve extensive electronic manipulation. Jellyfish wobbles like the transformational movement of the jellyfish. Bubbles evokes a deep-sea dive, with the pitches popping like bubbles through the background “breathing”. Undercurrent has a sinister feel depicting the frightening, immense power of the ocean. Sky is a meditation. It has “glints” of sound, as if lying on the coral bed, watching the sun glinting in and out of focus through the clouds, and subverting lens of the water. Initially a geneticist, Tara Guram (b. 1971) was subsequently a prize-winning postgraduate composition student at the Royal College of Music. Her music has been played from the Southbank Centre to Carnegie Hall, and has been broadcast by the BBC, and by television and radio stations worldwide.

The collaboration relied on correspondence via email and other social platforms and based on a fresh friendship that was established right before the pandemic hit in Washington DC before the two collaborators' unexpected departure from the city. Both were dealing with unfamiliar kinds of grief and navigating the isolation of early covid that left a lot of room for reflection. After long conversations, Max shared a track that he's been working on , Norhan improvised and recorded Silence in a one improvisational session and sent it back to Max. After a bit of back and forth, the track was finalized and released. A sculptor, illustrator, dancer and songwriter-from Cairo,Egypt. Born in 1991, Norhan spent her childhood daydreaming and listening to imaginary narrators, turning the mundane to the magnificent. Writing roba3iat along with her drawings, never she thought of pursuing singing until one -open mic-night where she joined her friend Freddy on stage with his band. Soon after that she joined the Afro-punk band in Washington DC, naming it “Kushari”, Writing and singing in Arabic. Just as the band was about to record their music, Freddy passed away. Norhan wrote “you Left Early” which would be later the first song of “Always Here” https://paa.ge/nor.hannem?utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bio&fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQMMjU2MjgxMDQwNTU4AAGnimXJCYQ9OETe9dFyP7ya1FfeXhaB3bQqQFGMp1XctICd6MAuDhSaWnnYUes_aem_bk8Zijylg28EKONCtIZ6eg&brid=XI6akfmd85tiIkaTj8CvYg 3) Paloma Klisys and Cíntia Molter - Frecuencia3_Triad_II_Piece_I A condensed radio work focused on listening, presence, and the materiality of sound, emerging from an ongoing process. Built through a precise architecture of 42 layers, the piece establishes a singular phonographic landscape in which the specific cadences of Cuban and broader Latin American discourses are stitched into field recordings captured under unusual conditions and scenes of everyday life. As the first sonic work of a second artistic triad, this composition presents itself as a hand-crafted assembly of cross-border listenings — a convergence between Caribbean and Latin vocal densities, radio interferences, and the abstraction of a signal in motion. Frecuencia 3 is a poetic, interdependent process by writer/artist Paloma Klisys and multi-artist Cíntia Molter, open to collaborations. Now in its 4th year, this long-term project was selected for Tsonami (2023), Irradia (2024), and the 15th Havana Biennial (2025). Paloma Klisys acts as the architect of sound montages, crafting high-density phonographic landscapes that merge technical precision with absolute sound presence. https://www.labirintoonirico.art/en/copy-of-frequ%C3%AAncia-3 https://www.labirintoonirico.art/en/frequencia3 https://www.labirintoonirico.art/en/c%C3%B3pia-frequ%C3%AAncia-3-s%C3%A9rie-especial @frequencia_3 https://www.labirintoonirico.art/en @palomaklisys @palomaklisys_art https://soundcloud.com/frecuencia3 Radiophrenia Shorts 23B Radiophrenia Shorts 23B 11 September 2026 1:30 pm - 2:00 pm 1 Roy F Guzmán - Criollismo (10:00) 2 Nils Loret - Dance Without Eyes - Episode 1 : Transmettre (22:00) 1) Roy F Guzmán - Criollismo The work corks with Puerto Rican folkloric instruments in an acousmatic idiom that is informed by complexity and the use of one shot sampled material. The work develops different sonic energies and propositions that are characteristically dense, sparse and complex. The word Criollismo is like mulato or mestizo, a mixed race. Roy F Guzmán - Poet, conceptual and sonic artist, composer and improviser born and based in San Juan, Puerto Rico -1987. His compositions are primarily exploratory and work with alternative modes of musical communication. He develops the use of sound scores within the concept of "transduction/abstraction". He currently explores instrumental spectral music using non standard synthetic chaotic function's sonic spectrum as base material, "música a lo pobre", non-duality, multipolarity, axioms, Puerto Rican and Caribbean folklore in contemporary classical music and acousmatic music, the liminal state between sound art and music regarding eternity as a common link, and fictional artistic philosophy based on creative deductions from Taíno/Boricua abstract metaphysics. He has performed and/or presented works in The Hague and Amsterdam- The Netherlands, Bratislava-Slovakia, Budapest-Hungary, Vienna-Austria, Rhode Island, Boston, New York, California-USA, Banff-Canada, Poas-Costa Rica, Argentina, Chile, Mexico, Ecuador, Colombia, Italy and Switzerland 2) Nils Loret - Dance Without Eyes - Episode 1 : Transmettre In May 2025, at the Centre National pour la Création Adaptée in Morlaix (France), choreographers Nathan Arnaud and Saïd Gharbi, both visually impaired, conducted research into dance composition without the use of sight. Together, they explored modes of transmission based on voice, breath, body sounds, and touch. This work is part of the long-term Dance Without Eyes laboratory, which opens up new choreographic paths by creating a space for artists affected by visual impairment to meet. Very quickly, the idea arose to create a resource for sharing this unique experience. The Dance Without Eyes podcast, produced with the complicit ear of Nils Loret and enriched by the sound creations of sound designer Clément Mandin, will give listeners a glimpse of the stories, practices, and reflections that fueled this first laboratory. Nils Loret is an author, sound director, and performer. His work explores the power of intimate narratives and is rooted in a queer approach to writing. He points his microphones toward those whose voices are too often marginalized, seeking to capture the uniqueness of their experiences and the beauty of their flaws. https://soundcloud.com/cocotte-nils Lost in Transmission 5 Lost in Transmission 5 11 September 2026 2:00 pm - 2:30 pm Radio Concrete #56 - Stefan Voglsinger Radio Concrete #56 - Stefan Voglsinger 11 September 2026 2:30 pm - 3:00 pm Radio Concrete #56 - Stefan Voglsinger This episode features solo live recordings by Stefan Voglsinger, captured over the past seven years across the globe, and remixed and edited by Hagai Izenberg.

The concept deals with topics that is the focus of my work: documenting a fragmented world against the backdrop of my sensorineural hearing loss, recognising and reflecting on how we deal with the unknown as a mirror of how we deal with our identity. It approaches the idea that when confronted with the utmost strangeness, we may encounter ourselves and gain insight into the ideological beliefs, fears, and prejudices that influence us. The aim is not to cement the dualistic poles between otherness and self, but to attempt to overcome them - and maybe to create a new identity? Artist bio: Deafnode is the sound and research practice of Hamburg-based artist Gaetano Rago. He is researching how the severe sensorineural hearing loss he has lived with since early childhood shapes hearing and perception and combines ethnographic methods with experimental sound design. Working with modified tape machines, looping systems, and custom Max patches, he explores how sound transforms and distorts as it passes through machines, memory, and the brain. He work primarily with dancers and visual artists and is part of the international collective Exposure Therapy, which explores the politics and poetics of auditory experience.

Burroughs believed constructed sound tracks could influence and create events, imagining the invisible generation as unseen agitators creating holes in time. Barry and Finlay's work uses Burroughs belief in time travel extrapolation to extend Trocchi's Invisible Insurrection of a Million Minds, a coup de monde, a cultural revolt that would outflank national governments using a million potential “technicians of change”. Using archive footage and field recordings the work makes links to climate activism and the right to protest today. Conceived as part of a larger body of work called Distant Thunder, Invisible Generation recreates protest actions of the Roberts Arudel Strike 1967,68 that radicalized protestors, a long standing action that almost led to a general strike. Artist bios : John Barry artist and writer is passionate about human stories and working class culture, inspired by individual's determination to overcome adversity. I make work that overlay systems, revealing structures that lever change in communities, exploring psychological power structures and imbalances that often underpin progress. These works explore communication and collaboration often about belonging, a practice shaped by working and living with diverse and often stigmatised communities.

It brings sound elements from the Brazilian cerrado - an almost desert landscape of that region - from sound recordings made on 2025 at the Jalapão State Forrest Reserve, and also at the city of Natividade. It has the author's perspective - a skeptical musician touched by Madam Romana's devotion and her spiritual mission. Alexandre Sperandéo Fenerich is Brazilian composer, flutist, teacher, and sound designer. He holds a bachelor's degree in composition from Unicamp (2001), a master's degree in music from UFRJ (2005), and a doctorate in musicology from USP (2012). He works with musical composition on digital media, focusing on live electronics. He has participated in international projects as a composer and sound designer in Germany, Portugal, and Brazil, as well as in several music and digital arts festivals. He has released the albums: “Música Eletroacústica: 10 anos” (2014), “Coleção Peripatética de Sons” (2019), and “Fragmentos de Caminhos (2024). https://www.unirio.br/cla/ivl/corpo-docente/alexandre-fenerich https://soundcloud.com/ale_fenerich https://nusom.eca.usp.br/eventos_fenerich https://alefenerich.bandcamp.com/music 2) Florence-Delphine Roux - Cime Cime proposes a disruptive ascent into the soundscape of one of Quebec's most mysterious peaks, Mont-Saint-Hilaire. Embedded in the collective imagination of the residents of Montérégie, this mountain has inspired numerous legends, with myths that endure, fueled by new beliefs related to the paranormal. The artist will navigate between capturing ambisonic soundscapes, natural very low-frequency radio signals, and analog and granular synthesis. This work draws from phonographic archives created as part of a performative research project on extrasensory literacy and disruptive listening of the Gault Nature Reserve. Florence-Delphine Roux is a digital and sound artist originally from Quebec City and based in Tiohtà:ke/Montreal. Her work explores the intersection of art, science, and technology, with a focus on the medium of radio. Her creations take the form of listening experiences, immersive sound installations, performances, video art, and radio works. Driven by a sound-based practice, largely sourced from material stored from outdoor recordings, Florence-Delphine Roux's work is significantly based on the possibility of playing with textures that are not perceptible to the eye, particularly electromagnetic fields, thus contributing to a disruption of reality. https://linktr.ee/FlorenceDelphineRoux 3) daria baiocchi – Gelb Wrapped in noise, the opening of this work draws the audience into a raw environment with an evolving texture. The various sections, bound together by the fil rouge of pure sounds flecked with varied repetitions of white noise, are followed by repeated sounds with differing envelopes—sounds that recount a lunar myth in which the sonic material acquires reverberations and echoes of distant memories. The memory of the sonic material is allegorically transformed and interspersed with impulses encircled by filtered elements belonging to the primordial matrix.

It was originally created for the 2018 group exhibition ‘California Walkscapes’ at Incline Gallery in San Francisco. Our California soundscape includes recordings of antique pinball machines, squeaky doors, subway musicians, tossing rocks down a hill, angry squirrels and more. Listening to these layered field recordings without any visual cues is like walking through a place blindfolded — picking up the details, the background you might otherwise overlook, the laughing strangers walking by, music from a passing car. Carey Lin and Gabriel Gilder are San Francisco-based visual artists who have collaborated since 2016. Their practice has taken the form of film and video, animation, sound compositions, publications and interactive walking tours. Recent work has been showcased at the San Francisco Independent Short Film Festival (2021); APAture Festival’s Visual Arts Showcase (2023); the West Virginia Mountaineer Short Film Festival; and “Exquisite Corpse” at Millenium Film Workshop (2025). https://www.lingilderprojects.com https://www.careylin.com 5) Alfredo Travieso - Bag Electronic sound experiment, playing with textures, editing, objects and layering. Artist bio: Born July 1, 1973 in Bogota, Colombia. Alfredo was trained in film and arts.

In Miami, Alfredo has curated shows and runs @trashroom_gallery, he has also shown work in Philadelphia. https://www.instagram.com/zeligbot/?hl=en 6) Dominic Pillai - 500 KHz: Above the Sea & Below the Sky This sound work engages with Dover's South Foreland Lighthouse from which Guglielmo Marconi sent the first international wireless transmission in 1899. Dominic Pillai is a multidisciplinary artist working across moving image, sound and the written word. Trained as a visual anthropologist his work is often ethnographic in nature, depicting subject matter informed by cultural environment and lived experiences through themes of cultural identity, memory, psychogeography and sensory experience. He has currently showcased work at Cannes Film Festival, Tate Liverpool, Manchester Contemporary and The Lowry. Dominic also creates music under the name THAMBI (தம்பி), with tracks that have been released on experimental record label Industrial Coast and broadcast on Stuart Maconie’s Freakzone on BBC 6 Music. http://www.dominicpillai.com Instagram: @DomPillai 7) Berk Yagli - False Awakening on a Mediterranean Island This piece is a personal journey through the experiences of being born and growing up on an island with complex cultural, political, and historical roots. An identity crisis, the hegemonic competition among political actors over culture, political narrative, and the collective subconscious, with its consequent decay, contrasts strangely with the beauty of the island and its warmth. After leaving the island at 18, this became further problematised through the questions of what home is. I felt strong connections and disconnections between where I grew up and where I lived afterwards, realising that identity and belonging can continue to evolve in subtle ways. Making every moment of interaction with the space and culture dynamic, as the individual affects the space, and in turn, it affects the individual. I aim to connect my journey and realisations with the ongoing social and political decay going on in the world. Berk Yağlı (born 1999) is a Cypriot guitarist, composer, and producer. His mission with his music has been to address social, political, and philosophical matters, inviting listeners to reflect on these topics. He is working on hybridisation between electroacoustic music and metal as part of his PhD at the University of the Arts London. His works have been presented internationally at over 100 festivals in more than 30 countries. He regularly composes his music in studios around the world. He won more than 15 awards in international composition competitions.

This transmission features sound recordings from a Woman, Life, Freedom protest in Iran, the sound environment of the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, excerpts from “The Feminine Mystique”, of my daughter humming to herself, etc. Ramin Takloo-Bighash (b. 1974, Iran, MFA University of Illinois at Chicago, 2023) is a queer Chicago-based multi-disciplinary artist. In his work, Ramin explores immigration, war, trauma, isolation, and imprisonment—experiences that are very personal to him. A basic question that Ramin grapples within in his practice is: what happens to language in the face of trauma? Persian calligraphy, and its, often wordless, incarnations in painting, sculpture, and cartography, forms the core of Ramin’s artistic practice. Other than calligraphy, painting, and sculpture, Ramin’s practice also includes writing, music, sound, photography, and film. http://www.ramintakloostudio.com http://www.instagram.com/ramintakloo 9) Paul Collins - Radio Spots - Sécurité Sociale This is a series of 17 one-minute radio-spots that use the radio itself as the primary source material. Random FM stations, in both Canada and France, were recorded and then manipulated using a variety of experimental methods and techniques. These one minute radio-spots are not designed to be played as a continous piece, but as individual elements, punctuating a day's programming or broadcast. A minute here, a minute there. Paul Collins is a Toronto-born, Paris-based visual artist and musician. His paintings are represented by General Hardware Contemporary, Toronto. His prints are published by Michael Woolworth Publications, Paris. His most recent recording, Bez Vremena (2025), with Quentin Rollet and Marija Kovacevic, is now out on Astre d'Or Records. Collins is an active member of the Paris experimental music scene, playing frequently in such venues as Les Instants Chavirés, La Guillontine, Le Non_Jazz, Le Chair de Poule and Le Peine Perdue. He was a member of the Glenn Branca Orchestra. https://www.instagram.com/paul___collins/ Velvet Vulva - Clownscape (live in the studio) Velvet Vulva - Clownscape (live in the studio) 11 September 2026 5:00 pm - 5:30 pm The piece I’d like to propose for Radiophrenia 2026 is ‘Velvet Vulva – Clownscape’ a live broadcast/performance exploring the maiden archetype through memory, nostalgia, and distortion. Using children’s toys as instruments such as plastic keyboards, toy microphones, bubble guns, small percussion — I weave a fragile sonic tapestry that draws on the textures of memory through sound. The noises start soft, lullaby like, Lynchian and sentimental, then expand and descend into cinematic noise. Clownscape moves between tenderness and overwhelm, holding girlhood as fragile, sacred, and sweet. The piece reflects and celebrates the fleeting fragility of youth, where nostalgia can comfort and unsettle all at once. Spoken word and playful poems drift through memory, looping, breaking, repeating. Dressed as a clown, I can (if possible) move through the space, letting the performance spill into the room. It is my intention that the piece be an immersive experience ,where memory is ignited and the maiden archetype shimmers strangely and unsteady. Artist bio: Clare/Speculum Bunny’s practice spans performance, sound, video, and embodied ritual. Drawing on her background as a bodyworker, somatic sound artist, and magickal practitioner, she works with repetition, endurance, and sensory layering to explore emotional thresholds, female archetypes, and transformation. Her performances often engage the audience, embracing the uncomfortable through absurdity, collapse, and invocation, blurring softness, control, and immersive catharsis. Improvisation is central to her work. She has released over six albums as Speculum Bunny, performed the four-hour durational piece BANSHEE at Tramway in 2023, and is developing larger, more immersive performances in 2026.

Biography: Vanessa Rossetto is an American composer and chipper-shredder, processing whatever sounds cross her path into sprawling, long-form narratives. Trained as a painter, Rossetto began working with sound in 2007 as a way to incorporate the element of time into her work. If you have met her, she probably recorded you. http://www.musicappreciationrecs.com/ https://vanessarossetto.bandcamp.com/ Selenium Dust Particle: Klankhof / Soundgarden Selenium Dust Particle: Klankhof / Soundgarden 11 September 2026 6:30 pm - 7:30 pm Klankhof / Soundgarden is an adaptive installation built around the sonic language of Selenium Dust Particle. It is conceived for a garden in Nieuwpoort, the hometown of Selenium Dust Particle.  The work presents sound as an architectural force: patterns expand, contract, and reorganize themselves in response to visitor movement. By integrating sensor-based interaction with generative sound algorithms, the installation operates as an acoustic ecosystem.  Selenium Dust Particle’s soundscapes—known for their granular detail and evolving layers—form the primary material from which this system grows.  In Klankhof / Soundgarden, the visitor/listener enters a continuously shifting environment where sound behaves like a natural organism, creating a space for contemplation, exploration, and heightened auditory focus.

It begins on Fridays, 18 minutes before sunset, when I open my microphone. I read out loud from a score that I write during the week. I also leave gaps. You hear the space as much as my voice. Shabbat Time began as practice-research alongside my dissertation project Weak Times. Currently the scores are tied to this research, interested in time(s) of study, reading and writing, but the work is responsive and personal so its focus shifts. Shabbat Time builds on Ensemble Radio Reading (ERR), a reading practice I have experimented with for some time, and Radio With Palestine which I make as part of Soundcamp (see bio). Artist bio: I am a performance maker and creative geographer studying in Glasgow. I work through writing, ecological performance and activist radio. My practice is spatial and textual, exploring the interactions between humans and the more-than-human worlds we inhabit. As a creative geographer, I try to work between fields of enquiry, with the outputs of my work being a mixture of live performance, radio work and research papers. I am also a director of the arts co-operative Soundcamp, with whom I make Ecological Activist Radio, produce our annual festival and mix the 25-hour radio broadcast Reveil.

Meggeson - The Capacity to Be Alone: Spoken Word & Soundscape (21:41) 1) Amar Ruiz - Comment on l'a regardée Comment on l’a regardée (How she was looked at) is a sound piece stemming from an ongoing research project called story of a singer with no voice, aboutaf Kadoudja, an algerian singer from the XIXth century. In the sound piece we ear a rearranged song from Kadoudja, played by sampling tapes, and followed by a voice telling her story. This piece questions the archives that were left about her and how she was portrayed in them. Amar Ruiz is a multidisciplinary artist born in 1998 in Grenoble (France), and based in Brussels (Belgium). With a practice mainly sound-based, taking the form of installations or performances, he is interested in the narration of History, and the History of the Algerian diaspora. instagram : @ama_rrz 2) Matilde Meireles – Three Three compiles raw biodiversity recordings collected around Stranmillis Weir into a looping, exploratory narrative that examines the rich yet incomplete nature of field recording. The recordings include animal calls, animal movements and the occasional sound distortion. A narrator catalogues both recorded species and those present but absent from the sound files — exploring the gaps between actual presence and what technology can document in a fleeting period of time. DRIFT was a collaborative floating architectural installation and public space that fostered new perspectives on city-river connections along Belfast's River Lagan during summer 2024. As part of this exploration, Wild Belfast—a Belfast-based conservation advocacy group—documented biodiversity around the pavilion using a Wildlife Acoustics Song Meter across a 4-day period within a 500-metre radius. DRIFT was commissioned by Belfast City Council and brought together OGU Architects, MMAS Architects, and myself. Matilde Meireles is a sound artist and researcher who makes use of field recordings to compose site-oriented projects. Deeply exploratory, blending improvisation and other sonic flows with multiple approaches to recording, her work takes shape through live performances, installations, album releases, community-driven projects, workshops and both academic and creative publications. https://matildemeireles.com mtld_meireles (instagram) 3) Sean G. Meggeson - The Capacity to Be Alone: Spoken Word & Soundscape The Capacity to be Alone is a spoken word and soundscape suite of tracks comprised of fragments, broken utterances, trace narratives and everyday sounds that interact in an ecology of place, affect and selves. Part memoir and self-analysis, Capacity is an exploration of psychic conflict, recovery and acceptance. The Capacity to Be Alone is a direct reference to the 1958 psychoanalytic paper of the same title by Donald D. Winnicott in which he posits the notion that the capacity to be alone is not achieved through isolation but rather from the childhood experiences of integrating one’s self in the presence of another whereby a child develops an internal capacity to be alone when having to confront actual isolation later in adult life. Without this internalization one suffers but hopefully can build one's own internal capacity to be alone. Capacity is an invitation to feel and think about this struggle. Sean G. Meggeson is a poet and video/audio/spoken word artist, living in Toronto, Canada where he works in as a psychoanalytic psychotherapist with his dog, Tao. He has been published in Antiphony, bethh, Die Leere Mitte, Ice Floe, Version9Magazine and others. He won the League of Canadian Poet’s Spoken Word Award in 2024. Meggeson has published three chapbooks, Cosmic Crasher (Buttonhook, 2024), ta o/j, and soma synthesis (both from lippykookpoetry, 2025). Forthcoming: a full-length poetry collection, j: poems (primitive press, Toronto, 2026).

Do certain loops continue even after you leave the office? And what is the loop—or the distance—between your social self and your after-work self? Yuxin Hu is a sound artist based in the Netherlands. or you can call her a noiser. She creates experimental music, sound installations, and free improvisation, or interdisciplinary artwork based on an acoustic-electronic approach. "Acoustic" means all the sound sources are from realism, while "Electronic" lets it lean a bit to surrealism. Currently, she is a music master in Sound of Innovation, ArtEZ University of Arts. She is doing research on making free improv based on daily life objects such as Bluetooth mouses, cups, shelves, etc., aimed at speaking for daily life objects and freeing them from their default functions. https://www.instagram.com/frozen1900_/ https://yuxinhu.com/ 2) Olivia McCannon - 'Tablet' from The Lives of Z 'Tablet' is a sound piece grown from one of the poems of The Lives of Z (Pavilion Poetry 2025). I turned to sound to create after-lives for the poems, as I wanted to keep them moving, to retranslate their presence beyond the page. If a poem is owned by the cyclical, recycling energies of Earth, where and how might it decompose and transform? Each of these poems is speculatively imagined as an object or artefact unearthed from an environment in which humans are a toxic trace, a remixed memory or a misplaced presence. They respond to a need to imagine alternative ways of being, with and within the extractivist ruins of English, and the landscapes and lives it has shaped and devastated. My sound project-in-progress seeks to question the place of human authority and offer poems as polyphonic experiences, whose voices belong to complex human and more-than-human soundscapes. Olivia McCannon is a writer of poetry and fiction and an emerging sound artist. Born on Merseyside, she has lived in Paris, London and elsewhere. Her sound pieces have so far been heard and performed at The Engine Room (Morley College), Liverpool University, London Arts-Based Research Centre, Galway (ASLE), and on a cassette produced by Dasein and premiered at Artspace Juraplatz in August 2025 (Bienne, Switzerland). Poems from The Lives of Z have appeared in Dark Mountain, Shearsman Magazine and the Forward Prize Anthology, and the book was published in 2025 by Pavilion Poetry (Liverpool University Press). @oliviamcc (occasional posts) 3) Paul Collins - Radio Spots - That Ol'Time Religion This is a series of 17 one-minute radio-spots that use the radio itself as the primary source material.

The work provides a listener with an experience of intimacy and fosters closeness between the sounding and the consumer. Motivation for the choice of a project is a long time interest in exploring the genre of audio play. Moreover, this project becomes a next step in a personal ongoing research on extended vocal practices and human voice as an instrument. The work on this project includes research on the genre specifications of an audio play, areas for experimentation and approach to script writing; deepening knowledge on vocal exploration methods; developing approaches and techniques that provide intimate experience through sound; defining overall sound aesthetics. Artist bio: I come from a background in academic painting and contemporary fine art, having originally worked in painting, sculpture, and moving image media. My creative journey has taken me through six universities, ultimately leading me to discover my passion for the intersection of visual and sonic art and, ultimately, to sound art. So far i've been working with sound on its own, exploring its agency, as well as body+sound explorations.

As oceans warm and storms intensify, the work centres on the practice of retired storm names—those removed from circulation after causing exceptional loss of life or damage. These names are recited as a memorial reading, marking absence rather than classification. The piece traces the evolution of storm naming systems, from coordinates to names, through bureaucratic retirement rituals, to the moment in 2020 when climate-driven storm frequency exhausted prepared lists and forced the use of Greek letters, signalling a system pushed beyond its limits. Composed from synthesis, vocal monologues, meteorological transmissions and hydrophone ice recordings, the work blends human and natural sound through spectral processing. A continuous Shepard tone underpins the piece, creating the illusion of perpetual escalation, echoing how “unprecedented” events become normalised. Melodic fragments surface briefly before dissolving into radio noise, mirroring systemic collapse Rei Loci is the musical moniker of Craig Ritchie Allan, having varied acclaimed releases of electronic music on imprints Seventh Sign, Headspace, Downlow Music, Bosconi and Partout; A further 3 eps were released under the Numbercult banner in 2009, the name 'Numbercult' later solely becoming the repository of his A/V and artistic work, this work investigates how algorithmic thinking can be transformed into meaningful audio-visual experiences, this work has included developing real-time generative animations for the likes of Max Cooper, modular synth guru Richard Devine and building interactive VR immersive environments for the Sonica Festival. https://numbercult.netlify.app/ https://www.instagram.com/reiloci https://soundcloud.com/numbercult/sets/titular 2) 53 CM - Le sentier au-dessus des villes I imagined this sound piece as a walk through an imaginary city, blending different sound sources (urban noises, sounds of nature, drone elements, etc.). I used several samples that I repitched, detuned, and reworked using distortion and heavy reverberation. By playing with stereo space, a dialogue emerges between the different elements, forming a coherent and immersive soundscape. 53 CM is an electronic musician and producer based in Le Havre(France) crafting a personal sound that moves between ambient and noise. He is a sound artist who often collaborates with visual artists to create sound design for exhibitions and performances. He works from materials they provide — texts, images, or conceptual cues — and transform them into immersive soundscapes. https://53cm.bandcamp.com/ 3) Marc-Antoine Granier - To cross (11:14pm) This is the story of one night. Or several nights. One night a week, at midnight, for the past two years, I have been coming to place my microphone in a specific spot in the city.A secret place that I am particularly fond of. A place that tells a personal story for me, but above all, a place where sounds resonate beautifully. I settle down, record and leave. Recording begins at the appointed hour. Water is also present in the night, like a tension that is breaking down. You have to cross it, swaying like a drunken boat, carried by the incessant ballet of our footsteps. The wind rubs against materials, creating surface effects. Marc-Antoine Granier is a french sound artist, radio artist, composer and sound producer. For more than twenty years, he has been recording and composing with all the sounds that pass through his instrument : the microphone. His creations, in which intimate stories resonate with sounds, are at the crossroads of documentary, musical narration and sensitive writing. They explore the fragility of humanity, our relationship with the sound environment and our own stories. His work reflects a constant curiosity and a mixture of genres. https://www.marcangranit.com https://soundcloud.com/mca_808 Radiophrenia Shorts 66B Radiophrenia Shorts 66B 11 September 2026 10:20 pm - 10:40 pm 4 Emma Bowen - Morgawr (5:09) 5 Colonial Skyway - Nike Sites Adjusting (3:50) 6 Fernanda Huamán + Manuel Briante - micro(sonidos)cópico (2:41) 7 Ro Rapaport - X (3:53) 8 Max Foucher - scarp and counterscarp (2:16) 4) Emma Bowen - Morgawr Inspired by some grainy black and white photos sent anonymously to The Falmouth Packet newspaper, in 1976, this short experimental soundscape attempts to bring to life the mythical Cornish sea serpent , Morgawr. This historic sea serpent sighting could be reinterpreted as evidence of real environmental threats, representing monstrous acts of human impact rather than natural creatures. Made by recycling and piecing together old recordings and second-hand found sounds, a bit like an exquisite corpse, this sonic arrangement becomes a dreamscape for the photographs to inhabit. Emma Bowen is an artist and facilitator, based in Scotland. She works collaboratively on bespoke learning, social care and AV art projects. She has made noises with and for other people at Edinburgh Art Festival, Glasgow International and Sci-Fi Theatre in Liverpool.

In contrast, this work also gives voice to the forgotten machines and ignored systems of mechanized domestic service. At its basic form, this music is a celebration of unmelodic sound without the noise and hollering. http://www.colonialskyway.bandcamp.com colonialskyway@instagram.com 6) Fernanda Huamán + Manuel Briante - micro(sonidos)cópico "Pequeños destellos de luz brotando en mis micro-oídos-chiquitos" "Tiny flashes of light sprouting in my little-micro-ears" Plant cellular architecture as a visual score: Sound collage created from audio samples derived from micrographs of plant anatomical sections.

Teruel, 2025 Stones ring out, strings are plucked and rubbed, all of that and the surroundings appear soft but are still there. How do stones sound? How do I relate to that sound in the distance and what sound possibilities can be drawn from that material? I am an Argentine composer, guitarist, singer, cultural producer and trainer residing in Barcelona since 2017. In recent years I have dedicated myself to research within the framework of sound art, ASMR and contact microphones and deep listening to territories, motivated by combining the sound of my electric guitar and my voice with materials not intended for sound, taking space as sound poetics. Experimental instrument making and the construction of sound sculptures are part of my practice. https://rorapoport.com/ https://www.instagram.com/ro.rapoport/ https://vimeo.com/user133807900 https://diariosonoro.my.canva.site/#ingl%C3%A9s 8) Max Foucher - scarp and counterscarp 'scarp and counterscarp' samples a karaoke Adele and buries her chopped-up vocals (the scarp) inside a cacophony of shrills and ghostly wails (the counterscarp). It pits melody against discordance, singer against music industry. Ensnaring the voice, it offers a dark opinion on the trap(pings) of fame. Max Foucher is a Scots/French composer of ambient and electro collages, regularly releasing short tracks, with video accompaniments, on Instagram.

The hyphae create the network at the same time as also carrying the water and nutrients allowing the network to grow in three dimensional space. And I asked myself what this might sound like. Mycelium sounds is one of the outcomes. Una Walker is an artist and writer based at Flax Art Studios, Belfast. She has exhibited extensively in Ireland and internationally, making site and context specific installation, audio and video works, and works on paper. Many of these works have dealt with aspects of individual memory and on the construction of collective memory. Site specific installation works have been constructed in diverse locations including: military fortifications in Ireland, Scotland and Finland: a derelict factory in Poland; and a cathedral in Wales. Her audio and video works have been included on numerous broadcasting platforms and in international festivals including In Sonora, http://www.unawalker.com Instagram #unawalker00 10) philippe neau - payysages.mouvements « payysages.mouvements.» is a sensitive and vibrant soundscape. Hearing opens to natural sounds. A haunting yet discreet melody sets the rhythm for the wandering. The result of a collection of field sounds, this piece emerges as a “sound painting” of a composite and experienced space surrounding the house. The forest, the garden, and the distant sounds of the city intertwine to “give life” to a composite, dense, and organic space. This site, through its very substance, makes itself present and resonates within us. philippe neau, born in 1970, lives and works in Mayenne. All my work attempts to shape an imaginary landscape. An attempt to create a "mental space." My music seeks to evoke these imaginary spaces through a non-narrative form. The atmosphere can be dense. The contrasting sound palette plays with twilight hues. It envelops the listener/viewer, immersing them in the experience of an intriguing sonic space. https://linktr.ee/philippe.neau 11) Jake Sandridge - FM Devotional "FM Devotional" explores the topics of memory, distance, geography, and community. The foundation of this work is a series of field recordings and altered versions of those recordings. The field recordings are presented in both minimally edited forms and in highly altered forms. A primary manipulation of the field recordings involves a technique where the original recordings are broadcast over FM radio, while simultaneously being recorded through a radio receiver, thus introducing noise and distortion into the original recordings. Throughout the work, a sharp contrast is created by juxtaposing the distorted radio alterations with the original recordings. The field recordings serve as documentation of places and times, and the recordings being processed through the radio, along with the introduction of pitch elements, parallels the haziness and imperfection of one's memory of those places and times. Jake Sandridge is a composer, educator, installation artist, and pianist. His interests lie primarily in experimenting with ways to incorporate interactive technology into sound, investigating ways in which sound and technology can create and strengthen community, and creating works that encourage audience and performer agency. https://www.jakesnd.com/ 12) Jeff Kolar - At Bay – solo “At Bay” was originally commissioned by choreographer Jennifer Monson and Serouj Aprahamian for their work “At Bay”, and premiered live at Krannert Center for the Performing Arts at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in March 2025. Jeff Kolar is a composer, sound artist, and founder of Radius, an experimental radio broadcast platform established in 2010. His work has been exhibited internationally at The Smithsonian Museum of Natural History, Museum of Arts and Design, CTM Festival for Adventurous Music, Tsonami Festival de Arte Sonoro, Radio Revolten Radio Art Festival, and reviewed in The New York Times, The Wire Magazine, Red Bull Music Academy, and more. His work has been commissioned by ORF Kunstradio, Deutschlandradio Kultur, Ràdio Web MACBA Museu d'Art Contemporani de Barcelona, and aired on independent radio stations all over the world. http://jeffkolar.us http://instagram.com/jeffkolar 13) Water Feature - Various Birds - eurasian bog tit A collection of somewhat convincing birdsong and foley created entirely on a small battery-powered drum machine. Many imaginary and fanciful 'species' including the Pond Bather, Golden Nuthatch and Brown Yipper are featured. A long-form sound collage of many species is the central work, and 'close-ups' are also included. In one sense the project is a sincere tribute to bird identification records and tapes one would find in garden centres in the 90s, of which the artists have a large collection. In another sense it is an uncanny objection to a contemporary relationship with nature that romanticises and objectifies it from a safe distance. The sounds have been sampled in records by other artists, used in an extended arrangement for an installation in the Jardin Des Plantes in Paris, presented with narration by a supposed ornithologist, and are played constantly via an internet radio station. Water Feature is a 'collage band' formed of several contributors, creating utopian, absurd and low-fidelity environmental(ist) music. There is a strong reactionary and naive spirit to the project which aims to replace lifeless, boring, synthetic ambient music with an alternative chaotic, colourful and organic musique concrète. Recording and composition revolves around improvisation with cheap gear, tape-splicing and other uncivilised practices and accidents. 3 records (including Various Birds) have been released through the DIY Morsels label/collective. https://variousbirds.net https://morsels.website https://www.instagram.com/morsels.website/ robrrr - i like to be with animals / radar sem z živalmi robrrr - i like to be with animals / radar sem z živalmi 11 September 2026 11:00 pm - 11:30 pm A jumble of sonic images of animals and humans interacting with them collected and mixed by robrrr_. Field recordings, clips from television and appropriations from social media form the basis of an exploration into the way we spend time with animals, play with them, parody them… The sound samples are manipulated, arranged and interwoven with original music to create a warm and playful ramble around the various ways we represent animals and use images of them to expose things about ourselves and our lifeworlds. In the clips, we sense the love and happiness that emanate from the interactions but, at the same time, the animals’ presence is often reduced, indirectly heard or otherwise cryptic, leading us to question if the subjectivity of the animals is given the space they really deserve. Originally broadcast on Radio Študent, Ljubljana, the title contains wordplay in Slovenian referring to its experimental sound platform 'RADAR'. Artist bio: Robbie Hopper is a musician, biologist, audio technician, curator and sound artist, working under the name robrrr_. Whilst originally hailing from the Scottish Borders, they have been living and working in Ljubljana now for almost a decade. They find making abstract compositions a comforting way of making sense of worldly wonders and horrors, and are currently particularly interested in radio and noise as subversive conduits for rebellion against oppression of various kinds. They invite you to greet your pet on their behalf.

The community I had in mind was the creatures of the night that inhabit the same physical space as us and yet we tend to be unaware of them. I recorded bats and other sounds overnight in the church yard using an ultrasonic microphone. I then slowed these recordings down to so that they are within the human audible range. Some of the slowed bat calls are discernible as their social or echo-location calls, whilst others are stretched to extremes using the PaulXStretch software to produce a drone-like sound. There are also calls of owls and shrews in the piece. I layered and combined these various elements to make a composition. Everything in the piece is derived from the overnight rural churchyard recordings. Artist bio: Jim Lloyd was a winner in The Rialto ‘Nature and Place’ poetry competition (2020). His poems have appeared in many places including: The Rialto, Stand, One Hand Clapping, Poetry Wales, and Nine Pens Press. He has an MFA (distinction) in Fine Art from Newcastle University, and has just complted an art practice-based PhD at Newcastle University which consider how we can imagine being an animal. This research uses multiple methods, including creative writing, drawing, photography and field recording. He lives in Northumberland, UK.

The only copy available to the public in Madrid is held there under the category of special materials, subject to a restricted regime of preservation and consultation. Her project Malicious Copy brings this story out of storage and back into circulation, reclaiming its legacy and updating its strategies. Sara invited Aitana to create a piece documenting the process of copying. To do so, she composed a 40-minute audiovisual work in which the background noise of Sara’s study room is transformed through the manipulation of audio frequencies, highlighting the musicality, arbitrariness, and monotony of the copying process and intertwining them with Sara’s murmurs. Sara Santana López is a visual artist. In her work, she explores the idea of a shared library as a flexible and participatory space in which, as a reader, she can simultaneously occupy the positions of author, mediator, and audience. To do this, she uses conversation and small scale, establishing a correspondence between the intimate and the collective. She lives in Madrid. Aitana López Rodrigo is a visual artist and filmmaker. Her practice spans different mediums, exploring mainly the concepts of value and labor through artistic interventions within workplace environments. She lives in Rotterdam.

The cassette tape was like papyrus, paper, or a notebook. It allowed content to be recorded—radio programs, songs, albums, but also (audio) letters, lectures, music rehearsals, poetry, and diaries. Marcin Dymiter moves in the field of electronic music, field recording and improvised music. He creates sound installations, radio plays, exhibitions and public spaces. Author of the books “Field Notes” and “Machines for Silence”. Independent curator of sound art. Member of the Polish Association of Electroacoustic Music. https://emiter.org/ https://emiter.bandcamp.com/ https://field-notes.bandcamp.com/ 3) Catherine Noa - Release That Release That explores my auntie's outcry to ease the weight on my siblings and myself from our late mother's decisions and shortcomings on what would be her 55th birthday. Catherine Ashley is a Black multimedia designer and performance artist working across sound, installation, performance, and moving image. Guided by process and play, her work moves fluidly across disciplines. With a background in film, projection, theatre, and object-making, she creates layered environments that explore gesture, memory, and systems of transformation emphasized by visual and auditory experiences. Ashley has exhibited work across the Northeast and internationally, and holds an MFA in Digital + Media from RISD. catherinenoa.com instagram.com/inoaplace 4) seah - between the lakes "He died in a car crash between the lakes" was the official report on my younger brother's death last year. "between the lakes" refers to a stretch of land between Alcova and Pathfinder, in the mountainous high plateau lands just outside of our parents' home in Casper, Wyoming, USA. It's desolate. The day after my brother died, I flew to be with my parents. I drove out to the land "between the lakes" trying to find a trace of my brother's energy... hoping he would communicate with me or that I would at least feel him. There was nothing, just desolate. In the weeks the weeks following, I did the rituals and meditation as described in the Tibetan Book of the Dead. I never felt him, just emptiness ... yet, I kept the rituals and meditations going for the prescribed time. This composition is a meditation of that feeling space. seah is the artist name for Chelsea Heikes, an artist and writer whose work focuses on Critical Feminist Posthumanism, the body, and reimagining relational ecologies. Having trained in somatic movement practices such as Butoh, Body Weather Laboratory, and Noguchi Taiso, seah uses the cultivated awareness of sensation to explore the posthuman body as a conduit within the myriad of ecologies on this planet. These movement practices embody Deleuze and Guattari’s nomadology, the shifting terrain of the psyche - a beingness that is fluid, always in transition, “becoming”. seah approaches sound from this space. https://www.facebook.com/seah.artist/ https://www.instagram.com/seah_artist https://bsky.app/profile/seah-artist.bsky.social https://seah.bandcamp.com/ https://postdoomromance.bandcamp.com Louisa Fairclough - The world went out of tune with itself Louisa Fairclough - The world went out of tune with itself 12 September 2026 2:30 am - 3:00 am The sound piece draws from a written testimony in which I have endeavoured to convey the distinct logic of my thought processes and the associations I was making during a lengthy psychosis. The monologue is non-chronological and echoes my fragmented memories. My spoken voice overlays a digital soundtrack in which I have woven together vocal pieces and music that I made on my computer whilst experiencing mental distress: an archive of that time. Artist bio: Treading the backward path is part of a wider auto-ethnographic project exploring Louisa Fairclough’s lived experience of psychosis funded by an Arts Council England DYCP award, and will be performed at Figments: Madness, Health & Creativity conference at University of Glasgow, June 2026. Louisa’s solo show, Mental Falls, was at Danielle Arnaud Gallery (2024) and MIRROR Arts University Plymouth (2025). To coincide with Mental Health Awareness Week, Louisa curated Welcome to my World, a weekend programme of artists' screenings, performances and talks at the Arnolfini in Bristol in May 2025. Louisa is co-founder of BEEF (Bristol Experimental & Expanded Film).

A delicate, lyrical piece about remembering, forgetting, and the human need to fly free. A 15-minute audio drama that immerses the listener in the fragmented consciousness of a woman nearing the end of her life. Living with the residues of cancer and the advancing fog of dementia, she prepares to leave her home for the Netherlands, where she has chosen euthanasia as a final act of clarity and dignity. Her mind fractures into three temporal selves — Happening (present), Diluted (past), and Metamorphosis (future) — each revealing a different layer of her memory and emotional landscape. Through lyrical monologues and vivid soundscapes, she revisits a love story with Nicole, a turbulent teaching career, her tango lessons in Argentina, and a deep, symbolic connection with Marcel. https://www.facebook.com/anasorina.corneanu/ http://www.catalinaflorescu.com/ 2) Adrien Howard - Speaking A (for two voices) Central to the work is a set of improvisational frameworks created for vocalists Axel and Christian Schneeberger to interpret and enact through predominantly non-linguistic modes of vocalisation. Shifting between ambient hums and moments of deliberate composition, the vocalists navigate a traversal of the voice—its internal contours and its relationship to the other. Axel and Christian’s improvisations work with both slippage and resonance as well as thresholds of instability through the different textural registers of the voice. Originally presented as a 4-channel audio installation, Speaking A (for two voices) has been adapted for different listening experiences. Adrien Howard is a writer and artist, working independently and with others to shape interdisciplinary projects often embodied through writing, printed matter, voice, sound, and performance. They live and work on the Isle of Seil, on the west coast of Scotland. Their practice moves through the edges of language and the body—attuned to how they are held, shaped, and spoken within dominant structures. Often site-responsive, their work drifts between physical places and more intimate thresholds: the page, the voice, the body—each a site of inquiry and expression. https://adrienhoward.com/ @_____adrien 3) Douglas Marshall - Like Regular Chickens This is the first track from an album released last month. It is inspired by the work of David Lynch, this track in particular is based on Eraserhead. Lynch's work has a lot of repeated motifs, one of which is the appearance of electricity in various forms, which I've incorporated here in the form of static and radio signals, which is why I'm sending this one to you. The vocal part is a poem written by my wife as part of her own similar project. I'm also working on transforming this track in to a live version that I can actually play, this is a work in progress but it will incorporate the same sort of soundscape but without the vocal component and with additional live generated radio and EMF noise, I would be able and happy to stream this version if you would prefer that to the recorded track. An electronic and sample based musician from Scotland, Unthank began releasing solo music in 2020 after a number of years working as a part of other groups. His work spans a mix of different genres including ambient, trip-hop, IDM, breakcore, electro, rock, and jazz never fully alighting on one thing for long. In recent times he has moved from purely recording music to the creation of art and sculpture featuring audio components and has exhibited in open calls at Glasgow's Six Foot Gallery, as well as producing videos on streaming platforms. https://linktr.ee/unthank https://unthank1.bandcamp.com 4) Adjowa Karikari - Meditation of the Electronic Drum In this piece I am exploring experimentation with using my dj controller as an instrument. I have been researching the history of the talking drum from Ghana in connection with drums from China and Nepal and how they are connected. I wanted to display the sounds of the drum as a call and response mixed with the experimental highly digitized sounds of sin and cos waves by Ryoji Ikeda. I see electronic music at the frequency level similar to the rawness of the drum in which it invokes emotion that consist of comfort yet sometimes discomfort. I also wanted to show the connection between the meditation of Nepalese monks in the temple with the abstractness of noise music. We are increasingly merging our digital and natural worlds, this sound collage was an example of how that relationship is in my head. Hope you enjoy! Ghanaian Toronto-based DJ, archivist, and curator, @999_adj traces Black music histories through a forward-facing lens, where breaks collide with electro, jungle dissolves into techno, and rhythm becomes narrative.

The project is inspired by my experience of misophonia (a disorder in which certain sounds trigger a fight-or-flight response) and the need to find control over sonic triggers, and to find beauty in something ugly. Artist bio: Ross Whyte is an award-winning Scottish composer who writes for film and theatre. He completed a PhD in Musical Composition at the University of Aberdeen. He later co-founded the duo WHYTE, an ambient electronic act known for modernising traditional Gaelic songs. The duo won the prestigious Scottish Gaelic Award for Arts and Culture in 2019. Ross currently performs with A New International. His new album 'Provenance' is out now.

It’s a narrative about me, trying to be functional and creative during an autoimmune disease and a cancer diagnosis. Agapi Zarda is a graduate of the Department of Science of Physical Education and Sports (UoA, 2011) with specialisation in Creative Dance, and the Department of Early Childhood Education (UTH, 2019) with research interest in Creative Music Pedagogy and Sound Technologies. In recent years, she has been engaged in electroacoustic composition and creative coding, exploring notions of interactivity, space – place and materiality. She holds a MA degree in sound art, “Sonic Arts and Audio Technologies” (Ionian University, 2024). She plays and studies trumpet focusing on the practice of free improvisation. She is member of Hellenic Electroacoustic Music Composers Association. https://agapiz.netlify.app 2) Cat Parasite - You Feel Me... Pulsing First track from album "Toxoplasmosis." Recorded at Messiah Riff Studios. The album is about personal experiences of mental health and systematic procedures for receiving diagnosis. This song is about the early warning signs and masking/hiding inner voices/ Pretending everything is ok. It touches on hypersexuality as a "symptom." Meow Catparasite.bandcamp.com Instagram - Cat Parasite 3) Matilde Meireles – Three Three compiles raw biodiversity recordings collected around Stranmillis Weir into a looping, exploratory narrative that examines the rich yet incomplete nature of field recording. The recordings include animal calls, animal movements and the occasional sound distortion. A narrator catalogues both recorded species and those present but absent from the sound files — exploring the gaps between actual presence and what technology can document in a fleeting period of time. DRIFT was a collaborative floating architectural installation and public space that fostered new perspectives on city-river connections along Belfast's River Lagan during summer 2024. As part of this exploration, Wild Belfast—a Belfast-based conservation advocacy group—documented biodiversity around the pavilion using a Wildlife Acoustics Song Meter across a 4-day period within a 500-metre radius. DRIFT was commissioned by Belfast City Council and brought together OGU Architects, MMAS Architects, and myself. Matilde Meireles is a sound artist and researcher who makes use of field recordings to compose site-oriented projects. Deeply exploratory, blending improvisation and other sonic flows with multiple approaches to recording, her work takes shape through live performances, installations, album releases, community-driven projects, workshops and both academic and creative publications. https://matildemeireles.com mtld_meireles (instagram) 4) Linda Rae Dornan - Transcription: LoveLanguageLoss This is an audio art piece about dementia and caregiving recorded over many years as I cared for my partner, John Asimakos. Transcription reverses text from my journal, uses cutup techniques and constant repetition collaged with John’s own voice as he tried to communicate. Constant repetition references the incomprehension and deterioration of language evident within the gradual decline of dementia patients. The audio work attempts to share an interior space of intensity and tenderness within the isolated world of dementia. Linda Rae Dornan’s art practice is performative and interdisciplinary, inclusive of video, installation, performance, sound and writing. Each feeds into the other exploring how we speak/communicate and connect to each other, and the land around us. She has screened her videos and created performance artwork in China, Europe, and the Americas, and has attended many artist residencies. She is the recipient of the Linda Joy Media Arts Award for NB, the Stratbutler Award, The Sheila Hugh McKay International Artist Residency Grant and has been recognized by multiple arts grants. Since 2017, she has co-organized PERFform Biennale. https://lindaraedornan.ca/ http://www.perfform.ca/ Radiophrenia Shorts 8B Radiophrenia Shorts 8B 12 September 2026 8:30 am - 9:00 am 1 Root Coiled - Merely Mended / Sterile Cap (15:27) 2 Paul Collins - Radio Spots - Phone In, Phone (1:00) 3 Water Feature - Various Birds - cream-faced loon (1:33) 4 Kate Paul - Grasses Interlude (19:34) 1) Root Coiled - Merely Mended / Sterile Cap A visit to the endodontist. A root canal is paid for. You open your mouth, they lock the jaw open. ROOT COILED is a sound art project of Pittsburgh based artist and educator, Dylan John Sidoriak. The project utilizes field recordings, ambient noise, and audio collages, to reflect and immerse oneself into the state of; sometimes forgetting about the center. Dylan John Sidoriak is involved with other experimental sound projects; The Ill-Fitting Party, and Stare Rail. https://www.instagram.com/rootcoiled/ 2) Paul Collins - Radio Spots - Phone In, Phone This is a series of 17 one-minute radio-spots that use the radio itself as the primary source material. Random FM stations, in both Canada and France, were recorded and then manipulated using a variety of experimental methods and techniques. These one minute radio-spots are not designed to be played as a continous piece, but as individual elements, punctuating a day's programming or broadcast. A minute here, a minute there. Paul Collins is a Toronto-born, Paris-based visual artist and musician. His paintings are represented by General Hardware Contemporary, Toronto. His prints are published by Michael Woolworth Publications, Paris. His most recent recording, Bez Vremena (2025), with Quentin Rollet and Marija Kovacevic, is now out on Astre d'Or Records. Collins is an active member of the Paris experimental music scene, playing frequently in such venues as Les Instants Chavirés, La Guillontine, Le Non_Jazz, Le Chair de Poule and Le Peine Perdue. He was a member of the Glenn Branca Orchestra. https://www.instagram.com/paul___collins/ https://soundcloud.com/paul-collins https://www.generalhardware.ca/paul-collins https://www.michaelwoolworth.com/paul-collins/ https://badge3.bandcamp.com https://www.bisou-records.com/produit/paul-collins-patrick-muller-thierry-muller-quentin-rollet-correspondant-a-une-lettre/ 3) Water Feature - Various Birds - cream-faced loon A collection of somewhat convincing birdsong and foley created entirely on a small battery-powered drum machine. Many imaginary and fanciful 'species' including the Pond Bather, Golden Nuthatch and Brown Yipper are featured. A long-form sound collage of many species is the central work, and 'close-ups' are also included. In one sense the project is a sincere tribute to bird identification records and tapes one would find in garden centres in the 90s, of which the artists have a large collection. In another sense it is an uncanny objection to a contemporary relationship with nature that romanticises and objectifies it from a safe distance. The sounds have been sampled in records by other artists, used in an extended arrangement for an installation in the Jardin Des Plantes in Paris, presented with narration by a supposed ornithologist, and are played constantly via an internet radio station. Water Feature is a 'collage band' formed of several contributors, creating utopian, absurd and low-fidelity environmental(ist) music. There is a strong reactionary and naive spirit to the project which aims to replace lifeless, boring, synthetic ambient music with an alternative chaotic, colourful and organic musique concrète. Recording and composition revolves around improvisation with cheap gear, tape-splicing and other uncivilised practices and accidents. 3 records (including Various Birds) have been released through the DIY Morsels label/collective. https://variousbirds.net https://morsels.website https://www.instagram.com/morsels.website/ 4) Kate Paul - Grasses Interlude 'My sadness is so joining and deep.

The monologue is an exploration of being (out-)with (of) time, consciousness and dreams." Artist bio: Robert Thomas James Mills is an artist, writer and rambler from Glasgow. Robert's practice often personifies the cosmos as a way to explore aspects of a human experience in relation to the universe. Robert's work starts with seemingly ordinary situations and aims to transport audiences to absurd locations of the universe. Robert likes to use de/re-construction methods on patterns, symbols and ideas to focus on the journey not the destination.

And lo, from the rumblings of this grim chorale, you’ll get your fair share of the Reel Artikel, as much an inflammatory Kelp Pit Synod as the apostate’s mandate to walk in Big News. Holsten? 3) Ernests Vilsons & Ada Ruszkiewicz - swing of the day - Lucavsala II This "catalogue of noisy swing recordings" is an expanding catalogue of recordings that capture noisy swings co-created with Ada Ruszkiewicz. The catalogue is made up of several dozen sound recordings featuring squeaky, creaking, screeching or otherwise noisy swing sets. The reasons for swing noise are various – loose connections or fasteners, aging of the materials used in the construction of the swing, weather conditions affecting them, as well as the load and overload to which the swing is subjected. Although most of the recordings feature swings that only minimally differ in terms of mechanics, construction and materials used, their noise is never identical, providing a sound testimony to the environment in which the swing is placed. Swinging, photos – Ada Ruszkiewicz; Idea, recording, editing and mixing – Ernests Vilsons. Artist bio: Ernests Vilsons is a Latvian composer living in Rīga. He writes music for acoustic instruments and electronic means, creates sound installations and performances, and collects field recordings. He is interested in harmony, time, silence, chance, representation and transcription. E. Vilsons studied at the Institute of Sonology at the Royal Conservatoire in The Hague. His master's research project “Well-Structured Vocalizations: An Attempt To Imitate Birdsong” was awarded the Konrad Boehmer Foundation Prize in 2020.

The performer tries to traverse the circuits, interlinked with a Xylophone and the performer’s body, in search of unusual, non-standard combinations that expand their innate characteristics by deliberately introducing ’errors.’ The exposed breadboards and the Xylophone also facilitate active, and musical alteration of the signal flow throughout the performance. Félicia Atkinson - Wilhelmina, Glaciers Chasms Félicia Atkinson - Wilhelmina, Glaciers Chasms 12 September 2026 12:00 pm - 12:45 pm Following her commissioned pieces Ni Envers Ni Endroit Que cette Roche Brulante (INA GRM 2022) and Thinking Iceberg (CTM 2024), the French composer Félicia Atkinson comes back to her interest for nature and its preservation, as well as her interest in painting. Wilhelmina, Glaciers Chasms, is an electro-acoustic piece for voice, field recordings, fender rhodes and electronics, inspired by the paintings of Wilhelmina Barns-Graham, especially ‘Glacier Chasm’ from 1951. Transparencies, blue and grey, super-positions, free forms, resonance and sustains will infuse in this new electro-acoustic piece dedicated to the XXth century female Scottish painter. A Radiophrenia Live-to-Air commission first broadcast on 23rd November, 2025. Recorded live at the Glad Café, Glasgow. Biography: For Félicia Atkinson, human voices inhabit an ecology alongside and within many other things that don’t speak, in the conventional sense: landscapes, images, books, memories, ideas. The french electro-acoustic composer and visual artist makes music that animates these other possible voices in conversation with her own, collaging field recording, midi instrumentation, and snippets of essayistic language in both french and english. Her own voice, always shifting to make space, might whisper from the corner or assume another character’s tone. Atkinson uses composing as a way to process imaginative and creative life, frequently engaging with the work of visual artists, filmmakers, and novelists. Her layered compositions tell stories that alternately stretch and fold time and place, stories in which she is the narrator but not the protagonist. Atkinson lives on the wild coast of Normandy and has played music since the early 2000s. https://www.shelter-press.com/felicia-atkinson/ https://feliciaatkinson.bandcamp.com/ Harry Josephine Giles and Callie Rose Petal (ⁿᵒᵗBorges) - Attis In Caledon Harry Josephine Giles and Callie Rose Petal (ⁿᵒᵗBorges) - Attis In Caledon 12 September 2026 12:45 pm - 1:00 pm This experimental Scots translation of Catullus 63 tells the story of a young athlete driven mad by the Mother Goddess, driven to become an orgiastic priestess in the wild mountain woods, in a cacophonous reimagining of the Latin classic as a trans hymn to the Caledonian Forest. "Attis in Caledon" uses the full force of Scots to create a contemporary version of galliambic metre, the ancient poetic form of Cybele's centuries-long trans priesthood, and the poetry is complemented by original music and archival material woven together into a new work of noise alchemy. We ran through the ancient pines of Coille Choire Chuilc in the foothills of Beinn Os to bring you this magic. Words and Performance by Harry Josephine Giles, Music and Sound Design by Callie Rose Petal (ⁿᵒᵗBorges) A Radiophrenia commission produced with the support of Creative Scotland.

Her work is informed by her lived experience as a disabled trans woman and trauma survivor. Radiophrenia Shorts 24A Radiophrenia Shorts 24A 12 September 2026 1:00 pm - 1:30 pm 1 Randa Megahed - Afkar Motakatea (11:37) 2 Victoria Morton - Vita Minerals (2:42) 3 Vincent Eoppolo - Vago Nella Nebbia Dei Miei Pensieri (7:35) 4 Domenico De Simone - CHANCE (7:10) 1) Randa Megahed - Afkar Motakatea Afkar Motakatea is a sound work rooted in research around listening, resonance, and feedback. Formally, Afkar Motakatea exists between stability and instability. The piece unfolds through subtle variations in texture and intensity, moving through moments of balance, rupture, and saturation, before settling into a state of fragile and unstable equilibrium. Rather than seeking control or clarity, the work embraces fluctuation, resonance, and the loss of mastery, inviting the listener to engage in active, attentive, and embodied listening. This piece represents the chaos in my mind, unfinished thoughts, and the violence that surrounds us. Feedback, echo, and resonance are approached as closely intertwined phenomena, all based on transformation through repetition, reflection, and instability. Randa Megahed (1997) is a sound and visual artist based between Paris and Cairo. Her practice spans installation, performance, video, image, and sound sculpture, exploring obsolescence, fragility, memory, and the poetic and political potential of residue. She works with degraded images, family archives, repurposed electronics, and unstable sound devices. Megahed holds a Master’s in Musical Creation and Sound Art from Université Gustave Eiffel and INA GRM, a Master in Fine Arts from ESÄ Tourcoing, a Bachelor in Media Design from the German University in Cairo, and a pedagogical diploma (CFPI). Her work has been shown in Berlin, Marseille & Cairo. https://www.instagram.com/randa.megahed/ 2) Victoria Morton - Vita Minerals Vita Minerals is a sound collage of field recordings and improvised instrumentation. One central motif explores the acoustics of an industrial goods lift, proposing alternative structures for intuitive composition. Concertina doors become a musical instrument. Darkness and light, emptiness and potential claustrophobia are suggested by the sounds of mechanical motion and function. Natural sounds from the yard outside occasionally filter through. Vita Minerals was mixed by Luke Fowler and features on Grow Easy Love an LP by Onde de Bouche. Based between Glasgow and Frossombrone, Italy, Victoria Morton is an artist and musician known for her expansive approach to painting which sometimes extends into sculpture, textiles and sound works. Her work as a visual artist sits alongside her musical practice both solo, under the moniker Onde de Bouche, and in many collective initiatives, such as the art performance group Elizabeth Go, all female band Muscles of Joy, Sound of Yell and the music project Sotto Voce with Luke Fowler. @mortonvikki 3) Vincent Eoppolo - Vago Nella Nebbia Dei Miei Pensieri Vincent Eoppolo (Ioppolo) is an American composer from Wilmington, Delaware. Eoppolo’s fixed media works have been presented at the New York City Electro-Acoustic Music Festival, Mise_En Place New Music Festival in Brooklyn, Utopie Sonore in Nantes, France and De Natura Sonorum in Rome, Italy. Eoppolo’s compositions have been released by Moscow based independent music label Meticulous Midgets and his works are regularly featured on new music radio and internet programs throughout Europe and North America. https://vincenteoppolo.bandcamp.com/ https://open.spotify.com/artist/4CFAy7K6LpWMvtFN5EpKPT?si=RzmH3nRoS0iHvsaNYWR4bw https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCvTgM-QDa-d6roSJ8Y9Kurw https://soundcloud.com/vincent-eoppolo https://www.facebook.com/vincent.eoppolo.2025/ 4) Domenico De Simone - CHANCE CHANCE begins in apparent innocence: fragments of recorded sound move with the freedom of improvisation, as if unaware of structure or consequence. This fragile play is gradually interrupted. Intrusive textures enter, destabilising the field, displacing what came before. The piece does not resolve this conflict. Instead, it sustains a volatile exchange in which sounds construct and dismantle one another. Forms emerge only to collapse; tensions accumulate, then scatter. What seems playful becomes precarious. What seems destructive generates new openings. Rather than illustrating a concept, CHANCE stages a process: a shifting sonic environment where balance is temporary and unpredictability is central. In the context of radio transmission, this instability becomes physical — attention is pulled, redirected, unsettled. CHANCE invites listening as an encounter with flux, where structure and disruption coexist without hierarchy, and meaning arises from their continual collision.

During a collective walk toward a waterfall, we lost our way before ever reaching our destination. Later, we learned that the spring was experiencing a period of drought, its water now nearly absent. Four hours later, the absence of water, the deviation from the path, and the body’s limit—each affected the other and cultivated another mode of attention. The sound recording emerged as a vestige of that encounter: feet on the earth, dry leaves, labored breaths, shared headphones, and scattered beings began to compose a landscape in transformation. Walking, there, ceased to be mere displacement and became a gesture. Gabriela Serfaty: Artist, psychoanalyst, and psychiatrist. She completed the artist formation program at Parque Lage in 2018. Since then, her work has appeared in exhibitions across Brazilian institutions. Her artistic practice departs from listening, unfolding into experiments in performance and sound art. Gabriel Martinho: Sound artist, filmmaker, educator, and therapist. He has been involved in international radio art and film projects. His doctoral transdisciplinary research currently investigates listening as both a technology and an act of creation—weaving connections between sound art and mental health. @gabiserfaty_ @gab.martinho https://gabrielmartinho.com @veronica_cerrotta https://veronicadaniela.bandcamp.com 2) Paul Rooney - Axing for It Amongst brooding electronic drones, and discordant strings, the voice of a tree with low self-esteem tells of a tree-loving human called Franz, who leaves letters at her base and has entered her dreams of self-oblivion. Paul Rooney is an artist based in Liverpool who makes installations, videos, and records, all with writing as their common basis. He has shown work at Tate Britain; Tate Liverpool; BALTIC; The Arnolfini; and Whitechapel Gallery; and has exhibited internationally at places such as Museo Tamayo Arte Contemporáneo, Mexico City; Centro Andaluz de Arte Contemporáneo, Seville; Kunst-Werke, Berlin; and Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, Madrid. Paul Rooney’s sound work has been broadcast by John Peel (Radio 1), Ian McMillan (The Verb, Radio 3), Huw Stephens (Radio 1), Stuart Maconie (6 Music) and Tom Service (Music Matters, Radio 3). https://www.paulrooney.info/ 3) Sooji - First Loves – Venus First Loves #1 is recorded on the Sequential Prophet VS from 1986. It is a series of vignettes derived from improvisations from a single session, a brief dive into the capabilities of this instrument and was the precursor to First Loves: Sequential Prophet 10, released in 2022. Sooji is a Naarm-based musician creating works that explore adventurous sonic territories through performance, composition and spatialised sound installations. Working primarily with synthesisers and electronics, she embraces the unexpected outcomes that arise from collaboration and improvisation. Influenced by diverse sources such as classical music and Italian electronic composers, Sooji’s intuitive approach to composition creates works that sit outside of traditional genre classification and often manifest as surreal sonic landscapes. https://eternalmusicprojects.bandcamp.com/ 4) Sop - Things I have done for money An extremely short and simple list of jobs that I have done in my lifetime thus far. Any comment on precarious employment, the hustle, existing as an artist, turning my hand to anything / aka being a pure chancer would not be appropriate for me to make. ; ) Sop is a torn and crooked leaf, a root embedded in the dirt, a shoot reaching to the sky. An artist working in crip-time with sound, performance, writing, film and objects. They work primarily with nature, acting as a portal, to be able to interrogate their own experience of disability and existing in a chronically ill body, and more generally how the chronically ill body interacts with and relates to nature and the natural world. Their work tends to centre modes of sociality, starting with personal narrative, then expanding through dialogue with their crip community to include other bodies’ concerns. https://sop.rest/ https://www.instagram.com/sop__sop__sop/ Gardika Gigih - Arung: Soundscape Stories from Southeast Asia and Japan Gardika Gigih - Arung: Soundscape Stories from Southeast Asia and Japan 12 September 2026 2:00 pm - 2:30 pm Hello fellow listeners around the globe, you will listen to the soundscape stories from Southeast Asia and Japan. I am Gardika Gigih, a music composer and soundscape researcher from Indonesia. In 2019, I made a journey across Thailand, Malaysia, Vietnam, Singapore, and Japan to record and study soundscapes as cultural narratives, as a way for us to see and learn each other through the diversities of daily sounds. You will listen to these soundscape stories, from the sounds of Muay Thai supporters in Bangkok, Thailand; the Hau Dong ritual at Ninh Binh, Vietnam; immigrant workers around Southeast Asia, gathering on Sunday morning in front of St. Paul Cathedral, Singapore; frogs and insects from Tam Coc, Gongs from Wat Pan On, Chiang Mai, Yamadera Temple water in Yamagata, Japan; Akihabara Pachinko noise; and many more. This research is supported by the Japan Foundation Asia Center Fellowship 2019. Artist bio: Gardika Gigih is an Indonesian composer, pianist, and soundscape researcher. His works span numerous genres, from concerts to contemporary improvisation, film scoring, multidisciplinary collaborations, and sound ethnography. In 2019, he made a journey across Southeast Asia and Japan to conduct a soundscape study as cultural narratives in societies supported by the Japan Foundation Fellowship and published in http://www.lostinsound.art . In May 2023 at the British Library, his composition “Mimpi Owa: A Duet with Javanese Gibbons,” as a voice towards the climate crisis, won the “Sound of the Year Awards”, initiated by the BBC Radiophonic Institute and the Museum of Sounds.

Radio Concrete #59 - Snezhana Reizen - Antenna.

The madness of the day.. “Antenna” is a series of works on transduction with the sole sound source taking place - radio waves. Here I was devoured by discontinuity and discharge inherent to the "miracle of the wireless. the omnipresence.. the overleaping of frontiers” - the radio, like it was marked by R. Arnheim This piece emerged in two phases: the first one can be called a transduction - a process of conveying potential energy from discharge into a signal. It was a spontaneous live radio-noise set recorded close to the closed shelter. This summer I found myself stuck in between absence and presence in amplified senses, confronting the avalanche of the noises erupting on us by this world, facing the chaos, “embracing alienation”, holding a degree of disbelief.. that this "disparity can be modulated”.. Radio Concrete is an ongoing experimental radio art project which combines field recordings and radio re-sampling together with electro-acoustic instruments and unplanned sounds. http://www.hagaizenberg.com/ Public Engagement 1 Public Engagement 1 12 September 2026 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm Radiophrenia Shorts 54A Radiophrenia Shorts 54A 12 September 2026 4:00 pm - 4:30 pm 1 ORKESTRAFRIA – Saltation (03:09) 2 Jesse Peter Ash - Emergent Signal (7:48) 3 Ricardo de Armas - Liquid Dream (06: 17) 4 Gennaro Foglia - Last Resource (6:18) 5 Hali Palombo - All of You on This Good Earth (6:56) 1) ORKESTRAFRIA – Saltation Saltation documents two sand dunes in motion, driven by the northeast wind that strikes the city of Atafona. The piece is part of the album EROSION/DISAPPEARANCE that explores the sonorities of an ongoing geological phenomenon, an environmental catastrophe. Atafona is a district of the municipality of São João da Barra, located on the north coast of the state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, which is being destroyed by coastal erosion. Since the phenomenon accelerated around 60 years ago, the waves have destroyed more than 500 buildings and fourteen blocks of the town have been completely submerged. Climate change, regional events, the influence of the wind, the characteristics of the waves, the astronomical effects of the tides and the transport of sediment by coastal currents. Scientists believe that the convergence of all these factors in a single location on the Brazilian coast helps to explain what happens in Atafona. ORKESTRAFRIA inhabits the liminal space between sound art, contemporary notation and experimental electronics. A hostile territory whose boundaries are drawn outside of time and space, yet deeply embedded in both. Limits governed by uncertainty, contamination and contradiction. It all begins with samples of exotic aesthetics, obtained through field recordings, which are later sculpted, remodelled and infused with electronic tones, with conceptual rigour and structural vandalism. Spaces as instruments, where temporality and impermanence embrace dissonance and fragility, reflections of the tragedy of a time when, perhaps, deep listening may be the salvation for blindness. ORKESTRAFRIA is Eduardo Bichinho (Porto Alegre, 1976). https://www.instagram.com/orkestrafria/ 2) Jesse Peter Ash - Emergent Signal An exploration of the invisible and the organically unheard, mediated with century old analog technology. Dive into an ocean of static and noise to discover the strange electromagnetic phenomena and signal fragments of unknown origins that reside there, swirling around us constantly as we go about our lives. An acousmatic composition comprised of shortwave radio recordings collected in a single evening at dusk, and synthesizers, Emergent Signal investigates the mysteries of both coded signals, the strange noise that surrounds them, and the possibility of deriving meaning from either. Jesse Peter Ash is a Canadian sound designer, musician, and artist based in Dublin. With more than 20 years of creating collaboratively and individually his work spans theatre, dance, music and installation and has been presented across Canada and internationally. Currently pursuing a Master’s in Music and Media Technology from Trinity College Dublin, Ash’s recent work is focused on sonic investigations of the unheard, and sound out of time. www : jessepeterash.com IG: jptrsh_ tumblr: jptrsh 3) Ricardo de Armas - Liquid Dream I imagine liquid dreaming as a suspended state of consciousness, a translucent matter where forms slowly dissolve. Everything flows: soundscapes blend with drones that pulse in depth; voices, sometimes human, sometimes barely echoes, intertwine with referential sounds. Everything converges into a single stream, without hierarchies or contours. There are no shores and no precise direction. Only a sonic drift, a current that invites one to be carried away by its slowness. The body enters the diffuse threshold where wakefulness opens into dreaming and dreaming opens into listening. Ricardo de Armas was born in Buenos Aires in 1957. He lives in Bahía Blanca, in southern Argentina. He studied at the J. J. Castro Provincial Conservatory in La Lucila, Buenos Aires Province. He is an acousmatic composer, cellist, and cultural manager. He was a member of the Provincial Symphony Orchestra of Bahía Blanca from 1988 to 2020. He is the founder and coordinator of the Bahía[in]sonora Cycle and of the real-time creation group ARS[in]sonora. He is the coordinator of the UNTREF Aural record label. He has received national and international awards. https://ricardodearmas.net @ricardodearmas 4) Gennaro Foglia - Last Resource Last resource is a composition between two opposites one is the natural part of our soul symbolized by melodic instruments and musical loops, which are broken by a mechanical part with industrial sounds and metal noises that represent the destruction of the soul.the composition is composed of a part A with worldless sounds, to create an unknown, new and uncomfortable sound imagery, all to be explored, then moving on to a part B with both natural and instrumental sounds, more comfortable and relaxing both for our state of mind and for our listening, then a return to A and finally B againAll this contrasted with the video which is a still image that represents the staticity and at the same time the movements that the music gives to the image itself. Gennaro Foglia is a 28 year old composer and musician from San Paolo Bel Sito in the province of Naples. He studies at the San Pietro a Majella Conservatory, majoring in electronic music composition, currently in the first year of a master's degree. He has won several competitions, including the SomaRumor-IV Encontro Latino-Americano De Arte Sonora, the Sonic Nomads of Seoul, and Marginali. He plays bass and electric guitar. https://soundcloud.com/user-346904635 5) Hali Palombo - All of You on This Good Earth "All of You on This Good Earth" is a piece that is comprised mostly from audio files collected from the Apollo 8, Apollo 11 and Apollo 12 space missions sourced from the NASA Historical Sounds archive. It also features self-recorded audio from the BATC & AMSAT-UK QO-100 (Es'Hail-2) Geostationary Satellite WebSDR, guitar, binaural tones and field recordings taken at FermiLab National Laboratory in Batavia, Illinois. The composition is intended to mirror the general unease caused by Planet Earth's current iteration, seasoned with a useless salve of platitudes. Hali Palombo is a Chicago-based composer who works primarily with found sound and old media formats. Her practice leans on wax cylinders, shortwave radio, CB chatter and Midwestern field recordings - that which most people throw away or ignore, she treats as essential and profound. She recently completed a 2025 residency at Wave Farm in the Upper Hudson Valley of New York where she created Echolalia FM, a one-hour piece centered on repetition, communication, and the strange comfort of echoing sounds inspired by echolalia, a common coping tool in individuals with autism. http://www.halipalombo.com http://www.instagram.com/haliannpalombo Radiophrenia Shorts 54B Radiophrenia Shorts 54B 12 September 2026 4:30 pm - 5:00 pm 6 dagger wound - death forces me to live (9:20) 7 Andreja Andric - Trashscape (II) (5:06) 8 Vincenzo Arena - Subterranean Ears (6.30) 9 Chin Ting Chan - Refractions (5:47) 10 Michelle gannon – Dissonance (2:22) 6) dagger wound - death forces me to live What has been living inside of me, the aftermath of experiencing the most unbearable and wretched pain. Of all my insides being twisted and desecrated and dying in the abyss and somehow coming back, somehow surviving. Reckoning with this loss has felt like drowning, capsized alone in the vast void. I wanted to devote myself to making something beautiful and raw for lawu, that can start to resonate with the ache inside of me since their death. With all the love inside of me and the love they gave me, I mourn and transmute. In life and death, intertwined beyond this sinister world, lawu eternally and forever. As death does us part. Dagger wound (LA) He/ it Harsh noise electronics with extreme performance art including needle play, body stitching, and live blood letting. dagger wound is a noise masochist bringing abrasive sounds with a strong political message and a cathartic and transgressive performance style that slices through reality. he is motivated by his desire for a better world and his lifestyle as an underground traveling trans freak. he has toured nationally and internationally as 1/2 of mirrored fatality and as dagger wound and has collaborated with multidisciplinary queer and trans artists across the world. https://linktr.ee/dagg3rwound 7) Andreja Andric - Trashscape (II) Trashscape (II) (2024) is a brief electroacoustic soundscape based on sounds of trash: dumping trash in bins, sounds of trash compactors, crumpling of trash bags, trash trucks and the like. The piece evolves in many fast-moving layers, resembling a cyclone, where sounds rotate and transform in ever different combinations. Andreja Andric (born 1973) is a Serbian composer and programmer, living in Aarhus in Denmark. He explores the intersections of mathematical processes, intuition and chance and uses computer programming as key means of artistic expression. With a primary interest in composition and performance for his networked laptop/smartphone ensemble, he is also active as composer of vocal and instrumental music and creator of video and multimedia art. His work has been performed on festivals such as ISCM World Music Days 2024 in Torshavn, Faroe Islands and 2019 in Tallinn, Estonia, ICMC 2022 in Limerick, Ireland and more. http://andrejaandric.com 8) Vincenzo Arena - Subterranean Ears Imagining a microphone placed inside a mole’s tunnel, the piece gathers and transforms barely perceptible underground sounds. A listening practice directed toward what usually remains beneath the surface. El Wud is an experimental ambient project built on sound overlaps, causal collisions and cosmic echoes. https://soundcloud.com/el-wud-1 9) Chin Ting Chan - Refractions Refractions evokes a space where natural and artificial soundscapes converge and transform. Built from archival field recordings made in Kansas City parks (2013–14), it captures both the ambient vitality of nature and the subtle hum of human presence. Interwoven with piano resonances and the timbres of metal, glass, and water, the piece refracts the familiar like light through a prism—bending, dispersing, and reassembling it into a shifting spectrum of sound. The piece is a study in transformation and distortion—its refracted gestures trace the irregular pulse of recollection, where memory shifts between moments of clarity and dissolution. In this ambiguous space, the boundaries between nature and artifact blur and bend, and echoes of the past shimmer briefly before dispersing into silence. Composer Patrick Chin Ting CHAN grew up in Hong Kong and came to the United States in 2003.

Sleep deprivation, and the shift between contrasting locations contribute to what can feel like a disjointed reality. Sound recordings capturing ambient sounds of Heuston Station, including the Public Piano, and the surrounds constitute the core of the piece. I am interested in how voices inhabit a space to induce emotional states, without the need for specific words to be decipherable. I also like to bring attention to non-human voices which are marginalised as we forge ahead in our industrialised world, and so the last ‘word’ is given to a resident Raven pair that build a nest each year near my home in County Mayo. Michelle Gannon is an emerging multidisciplinary artist born and based in The West Coast of Ireland. Recent projects include sculpting solid and sonic material to create work that converts the everyday mundane into art objects, looking for the poetic in diverse media such as soap, toilet paper, and public transport. Current work focuses on Gaelic folklore surrounding ‘An Cailleach’, and how this mythological figure is portrayed in the contemporary world. https://sites.google.com/view/michelle-gannon/home https://www.instagram.com/michelle_gannon1/?hl=en John Hall - Wet Play John Hall - Wet Play 12 September 2026 5:00 pm - 5:30 pm In WET PLAY, we wander a sodden and storm-wracked landscape in which play out the episodic rituals of a superstitious and introspective people subject to coercion and hypno- suggestion by means of misleadingly edited relaxation and self-help tapes, and bits of old films.

Katalin Ladik - Spacetime Roe Katalin Ladik - Spacetime Roe 12 September 2026 6:00 pm - 6:15 pm "In 1953, at the age of eleven, I began my acting career at Radio Novi Sad, at a time when all programs—including radio plays and radio dramas—were broadcast live. The experience I gained as a radio actress later became an important source for my sound poetry works." This work incorporates excerpts from the Hungarian-language audio archives of Radio Novi Sad (Yugoslavia, Serbia), originally broadcast on 212.4 MHz between 1957 and 2002. Audio Engineering: Szabolcs Puha A Radiophrenia commission produced with the support of Creative Scotland. Biography: Katalin Ladik was born 1942 in Novi Sad, Yugoslavia (now Serbia) and is currently based in Budapest, Hungary where she has lived and worked since the 1990s. Her artistic output is at once sprawling, prolific and singular. Beginning as a poet and expanding into performances in the 1970s she developed her own theatrical language which eventually came to incorporate sound and visual poetry, performance art, experimental music, audio plays, happenings, mail art, collage, and photography. Throughout Ladik's work and particularly in her performances, the voice and the body (most often her own) converge to become a site in which the personal and political spheres overlap. Making use of diverse sources from mythic narratives to personal and everyday objects, she has consistently sought to investigate her role as a woman in her own Eastern European context, challenging dominant societal, sexual and gender norms. She began her career with interventions on Radio Novi Sad (1963–77) and as an actress with the avant-garde theatre group Bosch+Bosch in the city of Subotica (1977–92). However, it was the publication of the record Phonopetica (1976) which drew the attention of sound poets abroad including Bob Cobbing, Gerhard Rühm and Henry Chopin who invited her to perform the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam in 1977, and led to her international recognition and prominence within the fields of sound poetry and visual art in which she remains active today. She participated in documenta 14 in Athens and in 2019 the Italian label Alga Margen released ‘Phonopoetics’, a diverse survey of Ladik's audio work between 1968-1993. "Poet, actress, and visual artist Katalin Ladik has to be considered as one of the most pioneering artists alive...Her work is bound to feminist matters in Eastern Europe and reflects the personal, social and existential difficulties that female artists must face. Recurrent dual structures and the use of sexually ambiguous figures (androgynes and angels) as well as gender-neutralising elements inhabit her work, which occasionally acquires Shamanic overtones and integrates therapeutic mechanisms of liberation." – SoundOhm Fragments used from the following radio plays / sound works: 1.

Hildegard Westerkamp - The Soundscape Speaks - Soundwalking Revisited (2021) Hildegard Westerkamp - The Soundscape Speaks - Soundwalking Revisited (2021) 12 September 2026 6:15 pm - 7:00 pm It has often been said during this past year of the pandemic that Covid is ‘only the beginning’ and that the much larger crisis ahead of us is climate change. An obvious question to ask then is: What is our relationship to the environment? And is the natural environment interesting enough to us – indeed, do we know enough about it - that we would want to protect and save it from further ravages? The sound environment has much to tell us - it simply ‘voices’ all activities - and if we dare to really listen, we may sense the depth of the environmental trouble the world is facing. During the past year I decided to re-examine the many sound recordings I have made since approximately 1977/78, when I got my chops in field recording while producing and broadcasting my radio program Soundwalking on Vancouver Co-operative Radio. Without knowing it then, it formed the base of my recording approach for many years to come. The idea of including my voice while recording the environment was there from the start and was based in the desire to acknowledge my recording presence to the radio listener. In other words, in speaking together – acoustic environment and voice – a relationship between soundscape and human vocal expression was revealed. Upon the kind invitation from the BEAST FEaST 2021 to create a new sound piece, I decided to use the opportunity to reflect back on my more than 40 years of sound recording and composing with environmental sound. I have brought together many of my recordings and compositional approaches in a fluid stream of listening while also softly speaking my mind about issues of soundscape ecology. The festival’s theme is “Recalibration”. The Soundscape Speaks is an invitation to open yourselves to the complexities of listening itself and the possibilities it may offer to recalibrating your own relationship to the environment. Composition and Spoken Voice by Hildegard Westerkamp Premiere: April 24, 2021, the BEAST FEaST 2021, at the University of Birmingham, UK Biography: Hildegard Westerkamp (*1946 in Osnabrück, Germany) is a sound artist, sound researcher, composer of electroacoustic music, sound ecologist, flutist, pianist, and author. Her works, which have been performed worldwide, chiefly focus on aspects of the acoustic environment. Westerkamp moved to Canada in 1968, studied music at the University of British Columbia and joined the World Soundscape Project at Simon Fraser University to explore soundscapes under the direction of R. Murray Schafer. She later taught courses in acoustic communication at Simon Fraser University and has written extensively on soundscapes, acoustic ecology, and listening. She is a founding member of the World Forum for Acoustic Ecology and lives in Vancouver. http://www.hildegardwesterkamp.ca Live-to-Air Performances - Ji Youn Kang / Duvel Mortgage / Firas Khnaisser / Nat Raha Live-to-Air Performances - Ji Youn Kang / Duvel Mortgage / Firas Khnaisser / Nat Raha 12 September 2026 7:00 pm - 10:00 pm Ji Youn Kang - machi-nory This performance unfolds as a live construction of an unstable sonic machine, built from circuits, metal plates, and electromagnetic feedback where sound emerges from shifting relationships between materials, performer, signal and space. Through acts of tinkering, the system reveals the hidden vitality of matter and its dynamic behaviours. Ji Youn Kang is a Korean composer, performer, and sound artist based in The Hague. Much of her work is informed by the rites of Korean Shamanism, and many of her pieces are written for Wave Field Synthesis systems, exploring the relationship between musical and physical space. She is also active as a solo performer, exploring ways to combine three sound domains on stage: acoustic instruments, analogue and digital sound, using DIY analogue synthesizers and live processing on a laptop. She currently teaches at the Institute of Sonology at the Royal Conservatoire.

Firas Khnaisser is a Syrian/Lebanese performance artist and musician based in Edinburgh. His work is informed by themes of colonialism, pop culture, myth and ritual. His practice centres on performance and free improvisation using electro-acoustic instruments, found objects and found sounds. He hosts TFEH, an experimental concert series at the Fruitmarket in Edinburgh, alongside Ali Robertson and Collette Martin. Firas is a member of the bands Off Brand and Vole Invasion, and also sits on the board of the inclusive music charity Sonic Bothy.

Glass - About That Tidal Wave Research Dream (12:28) 2 Zak Colello - I Am Sitting in a [B325_Stereo_Downmix] (17:33) 1) S. Glass - About That Tidal Wave Research Dream "About That Tidal Wave Research Dream" incorporates sound collage, electronic processing, voice, location recordings, amplified objects, mass media appropriations, and chance operations. The overall approach consistently hews to a four-track cassette aesthetic and composed tape music, where raw immediacy and surreal juxtaposition intersect. Public sound — available, inescapable — is a prime influence. Early on, childhood cartoons, call-in radio, and the pre-recorded self-destructing assignments on a well known TV spy show made their mark. Sound collaging flourished at a student radio station with access to multitrack tape. In addition to self-made urban field recordings and found audio sources, Glass adapts practices pioneered by past avant garde mavericks: Cage’s chance operations, private Fluxus-like procedures, machine sounds à la early Industrial culture, and quasi-outsider sounds absent formal training and/or intention. S. Glass founded Bren’t Lewiis Ensemble and Glands of External Secretion, and from 1986 to 2004, self-published Bananafish magazine. Since 2017, he’s toured the U.S., England, Scotland, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, and Canada. Collaborations include Dylan Nyoukis, Bruce Russell, Anla Courtis, Bryan Day, Andrew Zukerman, Cody Brant, Orchid Spangiafora, and others. He’s released material on Butte County Free Music Society, l’Esprit de l’Escalier, Chocolate Monk, Siltbreeze, Minimum Table Stacks, Krim Kram, Steep Gloss, I Dischi Del Barone, Feeding Tube, Ultra Eczema, Nashazphone, and Starlight Furniture Co., among others. He will appear at the Reception Festival in Ireland, October 2026 https://www.facebook.com/charles.nielsen.5/ https://glandsofexternalsecretion.com https://www.instagram.com/raoultinybear/ https://www.facebook.com/ButteCountyFreeMusicSociety/ https://brentlewiisensemble.com https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063544994780 2) Zak Colello - I Am Sitting in a [B325_Stereo_Downmix] I Am Sitting in a [B325_Stereo_Downmix] is the stereo version of an immersive experience presented in January 2026. The piece is directly inspired by Alvin Lucier's I Am Sitting in a Room. The text is a pretext for exploiting the timbral characteristics of the room in which the experience was presented, and the narrative thread of the work. Acoustic resonances are exploited as sound material and mixed with synthesized sounds tuned to these same resonances. The text offers a reinterpretation of Lucier's work, positioning the resonances of the room as a crisis and the sound of the voice as efforts of resistance in the face of the crisis. Zak's work lies between sound art, radio art, and acousmatic music. This piece is a variation on a series of works entitled I Am Sitting in a [ ], which is intended to be presented in several contexts, devices, and formats. Zak Colello (he/him) is a sound artist based in Montreal. He completed his bachelor's degree in digital music at the University of Montreal, then worked as lead audio in the Satosphere at the Société des Arts Technologiques. He is currently pursuing a master's degree in composition and sound creation and works as a research assistant for the Groupe de Recherche en Immersion Spatiale (GRIS). He composes works combining sound art, acousmatic music, and radio pieces, with a strong focus on ecology and unique narratives. Occasionally, he designs interactive installations, such as Chœur Factice (2024). https://zakcolello.com/ https://www.instagram.com/pasta_baleine/ Radiophrenia Shorts 41B Radiophrenia Shorts 41B 12 September 2026 10:30 pm - 11:00 pm 1 Sapphire Goss - Spectres, Skin and Bone (20:00) 2 Birdman 750 - Keep Listening To Your Radio (5:30) 3 Ivor Kallin - Barra Soap Opera R09_0160 (3:43) 1) Sapphire Goss - Spectres, Skin and Bone Since its inception cinema has been likened to a "kingdom of shadows"; time frozen, a netherworld between life, death and memory. ‘Spectres, Skin and Bone’ is an experimental documentary that uses the deathly materiality of photochemical objects to explore themes around mortality, memorial, extinction, extraction and decay. It encompasses post-mortem and spirit photography, Thai cemetery cinema, the gelatine of film emulsion as a charnel house of countless carcasses and the Arctic World Archive where digital data is backed up to 35mm film: a haunted tomb of contemporary knowledge. The soundtrack is sonified from film reels; a "Celluloid Synthesiser" using the end of the reels, the edge of the frames, scratches and dust. This is mixed with field recordings and optical archive, all dredged from the cracked terrain of the film surface, oscillating between the material realm and the ether. I am a British artist working with moving image, photography, installation and sound. My work embodies an ‘analogue uncanny’ where light, time and materials come together in unexpected ways. These are unstable media for unstable landscapes and unstable realities. I treat film and tape not only as a recording device, but as both a material terrain and a skein between worlds: surface and image, memory and ghost, life and its traces. My work has been widely exhibited, including at the ArtScience Museum Singapore, the Barbican, Tate Exchange, By Art Matters Hangzhou, Fermynwoods Contemporary Art, and Millennium Film Workshop New York. http://www.sapphiregoss.com http://www.instagram.com/sapphire_goss/ 2) Birdman 750 - Keep Listening To Your Radio This piece started with the eerie sound of Sputnik 1, launched by the Soviet Union in 1957, an event which also launched the space race. It also gave birth to the fear of a nuclear missile attack. Planning for the eventuality of an attack culminated in the British government's Protect and Survive programme. Originally, this was classified information, only to be distributed in the event of an impending attack. But media pressure and leaks of text and audio material forced the government of the day to publish the pamphlet format, in 1980. Sampled from the material developed for television, we can hear that central to the plan was the concept of an authoritative male voice broadcasting simple instructions. So listen to your radio, stay where you are and keep listening to your radio.

Inside the tunnels, echoes intermingle with the sounds of the surrounding flora and fauna outside; these are looped and set in dialogue with the beating of artificial wings. The work becomes a kind of return to an earlier, nomadic human condition: the hunter gatherer moved by both desire and necessity to listen closely to the world, to understand it more deeply, and to attune to its shifting, mutable forces. Stormi was used only once as a soundscape, during a performance by the same name, by the artist Valentina Furian. In this piece, she activated a series of zoomorphic sculptures filled with a mixture of wild plants, mushrooms, sulphurous water, elderflower syrup, vincotto, honey, and prosecco. This alchemical blend served to evoke a transitional state: one that oscillates between the human and the animal. Artist bio: Born: Latronico (PZ). He has lived and worked in Latronico since 2013, focusing on music, crafts, and visual arts. His artistic practice ranges from sculpture to design, photography, and video, with a particular focus on performances and musique concrète compositions. Giuseppe Giacoia often works under the pseudonym Gustaf Turmak. Artist’s Statement: Gustaf Turmak is a project that has accompanied my life for 30 years. It's not strictly an artistic project, but rather the need to be able to ritualise a creative act within myself. Gustaf Turmak has a thaumaturgic effect on me.

Field recordings of birds and landscapes do not function as backdrop but as active signal: a sounding ecology already in motion. Through analog synthesis, Andean traditional wind instruments, the air is pressurized — breath becomes carrier wave. Into this field enters Vicente Huidobro’s "Vaso": “Ahora nadie canta… El planeta vacío… Está en mi garganta.” The poem fragment is not recited as literature but emitted as disturbance — a voice carrying an extinguished star, a dead nightingale, a chest once swollen with verses now left desert. The throat becomes transmitter; the absent song becomes frequency. For radio, this work inhabits the unstable zone between broadcast and disappearance. It asks what it means to declare Non Serviam in an era of vanishing songs — and whether transmission itself can resist silence. Artist bios: Mariel Terán is a Bolivian composer, sound artist, and engineer. Her practice explores the intersection of Andean musical heritage, contemporary composition, and experimental technology. Working with native wind instruments, electroacoustic media, and research-based processes, she creates performances, installations, and interdisciplinary projects presented internationally. Fernando Godoy is a Chilean sound artist, curator, and director of Tsonami Arte Sonoro. His work explores sound and listening as spaces of cultural, sensory, and phenomenological relations. His practice includes installations, radio transmissions, concerts, listening actions, publications, and curatorial work, presented across Latin America, Europe, and North America.

The dichotomy between the band’s generally positive, joyful music and initially innocent public reputation, and the surprisingly tragic reality of their lives (especially that of their singular artistic director Brian) was a major influence behind the work. There is another aspect as well, that of memory. The composition represents the loss and distortion of memories with age. For several reasons, I decided to create my own Beach Boys ‘sample’ to use in this work. I did this by appropriating various assets (harmony, structure, melody, lyrics, instrumentation, recording techniques) from many Beach Boys songs from 1963 to 1965. The resulting work is a gradually evolving ambient soundscape, where moments of clarity emerge from the dense texture, only to ultimately slip away to into nothingness. Max Boone is a musician from Hertfordshire, England, specialising in composition and liturgical organ playing. He graduated with a Bachelor of Music from the Royal Northern College of Music, where he studied composition with Adam Gorb and Gary Carpenter.

The loud factory whistles take the shape of dissonant trumpets and squeeze themselves through the window cracks. Words can be heard, not spoken, but rather struck on old type machines; clocks are revived along with mechanical toys; reverbed hums sneak out through the hallways; steps, knocking on doors and boiling pots create arrhythmic patterns with an organic quality. The passing of time has arrived, thoughts are now measurable, the working day starts. Dolores Mondo Stash has been around since 2017 and it is the solo project of Romanian artist Dan Tecucianu. Since the beginning, Dolores Mondo Stash was a vessel for sound experimentation, from different recording techniques to different styles and influences; from industrial, noise to no-wave, psychedelic and ambient. The sound is shrouded in a lo-fi aesthetics – the tape loops being a recurrent sound theme and technique used throughout the album.

The sound sculptures are made with metal and plastic found objects. It opens with a single recording and gradually additional recordings are introduced, each bringing its own spatial character and timbre. Layer by layer, these sounds accumulate, overlapping and interacting to form a dense, shifting cloud of rain. Eventually it returns to a single recording and the sound thins and clears like a cloud dissolving back into air. Ultimately, Raincatcher is about transformation and impermanence. It explores how fleeting natural events—like rain—are shaped through contact with the human world, briefly exist through our attention, and then dissolve. It doesn’t seek to impose meaning or preserve experience, but instead offers listening as a quiet practice of presence within a transitory world. Douglas Taylor is a Glasgow based artist and non-musician, interested in the sonic potential of discarded objects and the interaction between the human and more-than-human worlds. Recent performances include "The Invisible Hand" (as Raincat) at the CCA— as part of Cryptic Nights and "The Trickle" —an outdoor sound sculpture— as part of the Sonica festival. https://soundcloud.com/raincat-306596410 https://raincat.bandcamp.com/ Roberto D'Ugo Junior - But now there are silences (Mas agora há silêncios) Roberto D'Ugo Junior - But now there are silences (Mas agora há silêncios) 13 September 2026 2:30 am - 3:00 am Composed in 2026, the piece recycles my own voice – recovered from an old poetic podcast about John Cage – subjecting it to electroacoustic processes that transform sound remnants into a landscape of silences, noises, and latent rhythms. The work explores the notions of surplus, discarding and the symbolic reuse of speech, converting vocal leftovers into new forms of listening and meaning. In a way, the result resembles a sound “frottage,” whose figures derive from the electronic manipulation of the harmonics present in my voice. The semantic aspect is relegated to a subliminal instance. In general, the piece is a kind of lo-fi ambient music, generated from fragments of a pre-recorded speech, with the Portuguese words rendered almost imperceptible. Despite the prevailing discreet and hypnotic atmosphere, the work contains a few contrasting and dramatic passages – brief noisy commutations. One might suspects a bored demiurge, fond of deviations. Artist bio: Roberto D'Ugo Junior is a brazilian artist-researcher dedicated to radio art. His work explores interfaces between magic, technique and art. Based on a poetic-documentary listening to everyday life, he develops an aesthetic investigation that dialogues with surrealism and musical minimalism. One of the main features of his work is the ritualistic repetition of speech residues and fragments of field recordings. He holds a PhD in Visual Arts from the Institute of Arts at São Paulo State University. He was production coordinator at Rádio Cultura FM in São Paulo. He teaches radio and sound media at the Faculdade Cásper Líbero. https://www.instagram.com/d_ugo_minimal_radio/ https://soundcloud.com/user-48062083-271779683 Radiophrenia Shorts 9 Radiophrenia Shorts 9 13 September 2026 3:00 am - 4:00 am Savant Flaneur - Psst! Savant Flaneur - Psst! 13 September 2026 4:00 am - 8:00 am “Psst!” is a four hour fluxus choir of over 1000 individually recorded voices. During a 2025 installation at Nuit Blanche, Winnipeg, Savant Flaneur set up two large surrealist ears and people spoke, screamed, whispered, confessed, into the ears. Using Maxmsp, Savant Flaneur recorded each voice, slowed it down and pitch corrected, placed it into 8 voice banks, which slowly recorded over themselves throughout the evening. This resultant recording is the documentation of the evening. Hard auto-tuned avant-garde Gregorian chant. Each voice’s confession made beautiful and rectified through the communal experience of the choir. Artist bio: Oft referred to as “chamber punk,” Savant Flaneur expels the dichotomy between western art music and colloquial music scenes. Savant Flaneur is the idle virtuosi, ambivalent wunderkind, aimless and gifted. Savant Flaneur is an experimental music collective working on Treaty 1 Territory.

Musician, composer and physician, Eki Shola, is originally from London and has added both the San Francisco Bay Area and Japan as home bases. Her latest album 還 Kaeru, represents a captivating mix of traditional Japanese instrumentation with electro jazz elements. Kaeru, translating to “to return home,” delves into themes of belonging and self-identity, inspired by Eki Shola’s extensive global travels and personal reflections. Drawing from her encounters in Hiroshima, Lisbon, and Addis Ababa, Shola finds a deep resonance with Japan, a connection rooted in her initial visit two decades ago as a medical student. Collaborating with local talents and recording at Studio Tepemok, a former community hospital, Eki Shola intricately weaves cultural and personal narratives into her music. Beyond genre confines, Eki Shola’s music encompasses jazz, electronica, soul, classical and more, reflecting her multifaceted artistry as a vocalist and pianist. As a practicing physician, she skillfully employs music as a means of healing, a role she’s embraced while sharing stages with luminaries like Dr. Donald Byrd, Steve Turre and Kitaro. Eki Shola will be releasing her second triple album in 2026. http://www.ekishola.com 2) Hoyong Lee – Retune As an aural depiction of robot threatening human being in the future, this piece 'Retune' represents the encoded secret conversation of humanoids that have escaped human control and refuse to communicate with humans. Especially focusing on this narrative arc of regaining the power of our control of the future against AI being, this piece also highlights the human’s struggle to reset and 'retune' the balanced relationship between 'real' human and ‘hyper real’ humanoid as a technological being created by human.Many recent Sci-Fi especially discusses the ethical and complexity of human-AI relationships, the imagined soundscape of a unified Korea exploring the coexistence with humanoids. The ultimate goal of this work aims to explore the chance of thinking about possibilities and responsibilities of acousmatic work as foreshadowing and rebuilding of the future scenarios in healthy coexistence between AI and human being beyond the boundary of ‘real human family’ unity through sonic metaphor. Hoyong Lee (South Korea) is a composer, sound artist and digital creator. His pieces have been presented at world-renowned electro-acoustic music conferences & festivals in USA, Europe, Canada over 15 countries. He was an Award of Distinction Winner in Matera Intermedia Festival 2016 in Italy and he was first -place winner in XRAY.FM Radio (Portland, USA) Storytelling Contest Prize (2017) as an experimental sound storyteller, the Silver Prize Winner in Max Bruch International Music Competition 2025 for original composition.

Whoever makes the bread holds a quiet power. Yemma, 75, is the only one in her family who still knows how. Her daughter Elya, a psychotherapist and artist from the Amazigh diaspora, records her mother's hands at work: water poured into flour, dough kneaded until breathless, the ancient wicker basket, the palm measuring salt. Then Yemma reveals something unexpected: each time she makes bread, she thinks of her mother and grandmother. She fears being forgotten — because her daughters don't knead. Yemma's Bread is a sensory documentary where gestures become music and the body holds memory that words cannot carry. A meditation on intergenerational transmission, migration, and the knowledge stored in women's hands. Elya Verdal is a Brussels-based poet, sound artist and Gestalt psychotherapist of Amazigh (Morocco) origin. Her work explores intergenerational transmission, diaspora memory, and the body as archive. She published her first poetry collection L'amour en creux (Editions Bleu d'Encre, 2023) and has performed across Belgium and France. She curates Chair Poétique, a monthly poetry series in Brussels, and is artistic director of Festival Matrimiel (2026), celebrating elderly women's ancestral knowledge. Mon Corps Sait is her first sound documentary, blending intimate field recording with poetic narration to explore how women's hands carry memory that words cannot transmit. http://www.elya-verdal.com https://www.instagram.com/elyaverdal?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw== 4) Ivor Kallin - Barra Soap Opera – 09 The work consists of 18 pieces, ranging from ~2 to ~12mins, mainly recorded on beaches on the Isle of Barra, featuring improvised vocal sounds with the sea or path as soundscape. There are also a couple of tracks recorded in Edinburgh on a dampened piano.

The piece was created in direct response to the images, building a close relationship between sound and visual rhythm. I used non-musical sound sources and toy instruments, shaping them into subtle textures and shifting layers. Although conceived for this specific context, I feel that Bone Foam can also stand on its own, existing as an independent sonic work beyond the images. Rui Almeida currently resides in Guimarães, Portugal. In his work, he focuses on the exploration of sound, primarily drawing from non-musical sources—whether through field recordings, the creation of interactive environments, or improvisation with objects. He has participated in projects connected to the performing arts and video, and his music was featured as the soundtrack for a documentary. His work is signed under the aliases MUfi.re and massa última. https://massaultima.bandcamp.com/ https://tomorrowtodaywillbeyesterday.wordpress.com/ https://www.instagram.com/ruimsa/ 2) Shane Fosse - snow angel 'Snow angel' discusses othering that begins at home; a queerphobic caretaker is addressed somewhat ambiguously in the speaker's reflections. While it borders on spoken word, the piece is best described as a recorded stream of consciousness narrative that has been distorted and scored for the purpose of protecting its vulnerability. 'snow angel' is part of a larger series of sound works titled Rebuttals, which explores how audio and its layering can be used to insulate the plainest truth. Shane Fosse is a multidisciplinary artist from Dallas, Texas. After receiving their BS in Neuroscience from Depaul University in 2020, Fosse embraced poetry and drag as a way to process times of tumultuous change. As a writer and performer of many years prior, their projects exist as sustained exercises in observation, memory, and emotional honesty. These efforts are currently focused upon producing a series of sound artworks and their debut collection of poems, Bible Belt. Their work has received support from many organizations, including the Illinois Arts Council, Luminarts Cultural Foundation, and the Sundress Academy of the Arts. shanefosse.com 3) Ushara Dilrukshan - To Dunhinda Falls This audio piece is structured around a continuous ten-minute field recording captured during a journey with my mother to Dunhinda Falls in Sri Lanka. The unedited diegetic sound—ambient voices, vendors, monsoon rain, and passing conversation—forms the sonic foundation of the work. Electronic instrumentation is layered into the recording, gradually merging with the environmental soundscape. A recurring motif in Für Elise by Ludwig van Beethoven emerges both as composed material and as sound encountered in the recorded environment, blurring the boundaries between found and constructed audio. Subtitled dialogue appears in partial translation, foregrounding gaps in language and memory. The piece explores place, intergenerational connection, and the poetics of field recording as an archive. Ushara Dilrukshan is a London-based, Sri Lankan multi-media performance artist. Her works tackle ideas of cultural identity, womanhood and trauma explored through narratives. The work aims to open up questions and start discussions about experiences of similar narratives and journeys through life. As an interdisciplinary artist, sound and performance are a centralised form. Utilising poetry, field recordings, body and soul; further explored through video installation, publication and mutated operatics, she offers an insight into these themes.

Random FM stations, in both Canada and France, were recorded and then manipulated using a variety of experimental methods and techniques. These one minute radio-spots are not designed to be played as a continous piece, but as individual elements, punctuating a day's programming or broadcast. A minute here, a minute there. Paul Collins is a Toronto-born, Paris-based visual artist and musician. His paintings are represented by General Hardware Contemporary, Toronto. His prints are published by Michael Woolworth Publications, Paris. His most recent recording, Bez Vremena (2025), with Quentin Rollet and Marija Kovacevic, is now out on Astre d'Or Records.

Starting from field recordings at a lakeside, familiar sounds of water, wind, and rustling leaves gradually transform, intertwining with subtle digital textures. The composition blurs the line between the organic and artificial, inviting listeners to experience a future acoustic environment where natural and synthetic elements coexist. Layers of sound shift between serenity and disruption, encouraging reflection on the fragility and resilience of ecosystems. By presenting familiar sounds in unexpected forms, FOLIAGE turns listening into an act of awareness, highlighting the delicate balance between preservation and transformation in the auditory world. Designed for radio transmission, the piece emphasizes immersive spatial experience within a stereo field, allowing the listener to perceive the unfolding soundscape as a living, evolving environment.

It listens with trees and bark beetles, with foresters and culture women, with myths and ideologies. The Thuringian Forest is an ancient grown forest, estimated to be 10,000 years old. In the last two centuries of heightened industrialisation, much of the ancient forest has been replanted with a monoculture of fast-growing, straight, spruce trees. This monoculture forest has struggled to adapt to hotter and drier climatic conditions, with the weakened trees being devastated by an outbreak of bark beetles (Ips typographus). To prevent the spread of the bark beetle, the forest management answers with extensive clear-cuts to remove the supposedly “infected” trees. The audio essay is part of the PhD research project “The Forest Echoes Back — Receiving and Transmitting Forest Conversations Through an Ecology of Listening” and produced in the framework of TRANSMIT at LUCA School of Arts.

The sculpture had holes bored through for directional listening, so I brought my stereo mics with me and spent a day recording. I contemplated how a soundscape gets preserved; did the sound in 2026 relate to the sound when it was first designated as a soundscape in 1996? The next day I brought my synthesizer with me and recorded a performance with the sculpture. In the open you wonder who else is performing with you and how to make space for them. I thank the runners, cyclists, the river, the birds, the golfers and baseball team, the railways and Mount Fuji 150km away but in sight for performing with me.

Beirut Today, Sandra Abdelbaki - November 8, 2021 Sunday lunches with the family have turned into whatsapp video calls, with every member in a different location. Dinner gatherings with friends have turned into photo exchanges of longing, where we begin to make plans to meet in Lebanon or somewhere that doesn’t require a visa. As immigration continues to grow in Lebanon, I begin to wonder what will the future look like? Will the country find its way back or more importantly will the people find their way back to the country? The notion of a collective future becomes challenging to imagine as the exodus continues to grow. The sonic journey is dedicated to the mass number of people around the globe that have had to leave their home, yet continue to find themselves drifting between two places and spaces. “And who are we now?” is an ongoing research, it continues to shift and transform itself, its growth is affected by personal and global upheavals. The performance in itself is an act of mourning, inviting listeners to take part in this collective moment.

The catalogue is made up of several dozen sound recordings featuring squeaky, creaking, screeching or otherwise noisy swing sets. The reasons for swing noise are various – loose connections or fasteners, aging of the materials used in the construction of the swing, weather conditions affecting them, as well as the load and overload to which the swing is subjected. Although most of the recordings feature swings that only minimally differ in terms of mechanics, construction and materials used, their noise is never identical, providing a sound testimony to the environment in which the swing is placed. Swinging, photos – Ada Ruszkiewicz; Idea, recording, editing and mixing – Ernests Vilsons. Artist bio: Ernests Vilsons is a Latvian composer living in Rīga. He writes music for acoustic instruments and electronic means, creates sound installations and performances, and collects field recordings. He is interested in harmony, time, silence, chance, representation and transcription. E. Vilsons studied at the Institute of Sonology at the Royal Conservatoire in The Hague. His master's research project “Well-Structured Vocalizations: An Attempt To Imitate Birdsong” was awarded the Konrad Boehmer Foundation Prize in 2020.

Together, we forged a hybrid creative method, blending music technology and compositional techniques with the fluid cadence of lyrical voice. Their recorded voices recite a poem about intimate relationships with the sea—one shaped by Chile’s history of tsunamis, the other by Bolivia’s landlocked distance. That contrast informs an acousmatic composition made entirely from their processed voices that weaves coastal memory with inland absence, and folds in ecological and climatic shifts: warming oceans, altered currents, and rising seas that redraw shorelines and cultural ties. The result is a layered, evocative soundscape where technology amplifies lived vulnerability and evolving environmental narratives. Gustavo Guzmán is a composer, artist, and researcher with an extensive transdisciplinary background. His sustained, research-driven trajectory underscores his long term commitment to using art and technology as tools for ecological resilience and social transformation through the lens of gesture. Professionally, Gustavo Guzmán has composed and produced for film, video, and theatre, and toured extensively across Mexico, presenting solo and collaborative sound poetry at large scale venues. Recent highlights include experimental music performances for Radio UNAM (2022-2023), research on situated experimental musical interfaces for the Global South (NIME LATAM 2025), and eco-acoustic collaborations with Tsonami sound-art collective (2025), among others. http://gustavoguzmancom.wordpress.com/ 2) Léna Hiriartborde – Spirole Spirole is the result of a week-long residency in the Lot region of France, an analog heart of modulated cassettes mixed live on variable-speed tape recorders, played in the hollow of a small quarry. It unfolds as a succession of continuous lo-fi sounds punctuated by fragments of memories, snippets of poems, improvised instruments, stray insects, voices, scratches, breaths. Léna Hiriartborde is a multidisciplinary artist based in Marseille (FR). Her research employs all kinds of strategies that invite greater attention to spaces and their subtleties. Inspired by her observation of the living world and its possible perceptions, she's interested in the notions of interdependence, inter-species collaboration, animism. The pieces she produces are often developed contextually. They combine sound, poetry, performance, walking, writing, drawing, and video. They are immersive and conceived as conversations with the environments in which they take place. http://lenahiriartborde.net/ https://www.instagram.com/lenahiriartborde/ 3) Adam McNeil - Discipline/Dysfunction An experimental audio piece inspired by the writings of Polish psychologist Kazimierz Dąbrowski and Teresa de Cartagena, a 15th-century mystic, writer, and nun from medieval Castile. Adam McNeil is a sound artist whose work delves into Christianity, psychogeography, and the transformative power of sound. Interested in the intersection of mental health, 'spirituality', and the everyday, their practice explores how sound-making can serve as a tool for embracing uncertainty. Using voice, layered samples, audio textures, and acoustic instruments, Adam creates evocative soundscapes that examine alienation, the mundane, and the effects of post-traumatic Protestantism on identity and self-perception. @adammcneilll 4) Emilie Mousset - Vert western Starting with recordings of plants, working with the material as if they were stones, percussion instruments, leafy grains... and ending up dreaming up images of a western set in the forest. This is the first track on the album Vert western, released on the Tsuku Boshi label in March 2025. Emilie Mousset is a sound artist and electroacoustic composer. After studying literature and dramaturgy, she trained in sound techniques at the INA and in electroacoustic composition at the CRD in Pantin (France) with Christine Groult. Her work combines radio and musical writing with broadcasting devices that favour listening in specific contexts: concerts of acousmatic pieces, installations in public spaces or landscapes. She also composes for the performing arts and visual arts, and regularly collaborates with directors, musicians and visual artists. She is a trainer at the INA (Paris) and runs workshops for a variety of audiences (schools, hosp Vert western itals, prisons, etc.). http://emiliemousset.net/ https://soundcloud.com/emilie-mousset https://emiliemousset.bandcamp.com/ 5) Lily Tiger T Wells - Gweirgloddio (Meadow Maker) Gweirgloddio / Meadow Maker is the accompanying sound piece to a sculptural installation displayed at the National Botanic Gardens of Wales in Carmarthenshire. Working directly with the remnants of this year’s meadow cut, the installation looks at the value of human management in preserving biodiverse landscapes. Drawing on conversations with conservationists, scientists, farmers, and gardeners, the work challenges dominant narratives that frame human intervention as inherently damaging to the natural world. Instead, it positions haymaking as a collaborative process between people and landscape that has sustained species-rich grasslands for millennia. Lily Tiger is an artist- filmmaker based in and from West Wales. Her work is a research driven exploration of places and people, using expanded documentary practices as a vessel to engage with archives, everyday stories and local environments. Her work spans across installation, photography, sound and analogue filmmaking, with a particular curiosity in folk traditions and ecological practices. @lilbobagginz lilytiger.site Public Engagement Listening Event Public Engagement Listening Event 13 September 2026 2:00 pm - 5:00 pm Memo Dumay & Natalia Rivera-Riffo - Hypnosis Liquida Memo Dumay & Natalia Rivera-Riffo - Hypnosis Liquida 13 September 2026 5:00 pm - 5:30 pm ‘Liquid Hypnosis’ is a work that blends images, poetry, memories, and soundscapes. "Liquid Hypnosis" is an attempt to create a multi-layered sound work, where soundscapes are interwoven, taking the listener through imaginary lands, punctuated by brief recitations of poems, verses and fictional memories, like dystopian stories. This work is a model of a genre in progress, where other stories that share sound textures and poetic counterpoint can be included. The sound material consists of electromagnetic recordings made with a pair of coil pickup microphones, recorded on two tracks simultaneously, capturing various domestic electromagnetic phenomena as sound events. Other sound layers or textures are produced by modular synthesis, preferably at low frequency, under simple and repetitive sequences. The sounds and voices were recorded on the same day. Artist bios: Juan Guillermo Dumay (Memo Dumay, Viridianos, el gran chufle, Panico) is an artist, born in 1975 in Santiago, Chile, he lives in Paris, France. He produces site-specific sound works using different materials, such as multi-channel pieces and kaleidoscopic improvisations combining electronic music, amplified sounds and raw noise. Natalia Rivera Riffo (born in Valdivia, Chile in 1982) is a multidisciplinary contemporary artist : Visual Artist and sculpture and sound artist, she is based in Paris, France.

At the site, I managed to record the ambient sound during the eclipse, located in a desert area far from towns and roads, with minimal environmental pollution. On the way back, the cassette was forgotten along with other things in a metal box when we had to run to catch a truck that would take us back to Arica" The cassette was found in 2046 by accident when a meteor shower struck the area. The audio was transferred by experts from the ambient sound service at the University of Tarapaca. The cassette was in good condition despite the magnetic discharge from the meteorites and the passage of time. poem #3 contemplación disolviéndose, disociándose en la linea vertical del horizonte un contorno erosionado del tiempo el aire persiste contemplation dissolving, dissociating on the vertical line of the horizon an contour eroded by time the air persists poem #4 un eco de un sueño atrapado dentro de otro sueno en la cavidad mas onda de la atmósfera donde el viento entra con una luz y el vacío es solo un espejo an echo of a dream trapped inside another dream in the deepest cavity of the atmosphere where the wind enters with light and the void is just a mirror story #2 sounds from the future, a new religion A young woman participates in a sound art workshop in Valparaiso, Chile, and experimenting with very low frequency (VLF) signals, she discovers a radio broadcast from the future announcing a planetary cataclysm that will occur in 10 years.

A video and text related to live audio recording was published on Ibraaz on 17 February 2026. Live performance audio recording: Tito Loria Live performance mixing and mastering of extracts: Nour Sokhon Beirut Birds ( ط ور روت ) is a sonic memory capsule honoring (inter)personal stories of migration, displacement, and the cyclical turbulent circumstances in Lebanon. Transforming her multi-year project, multidisciplinary artist and composer Nour Sokhon crystallizes the performance Beirut Birds ( ط ور روت ) into her long-awaited debut album. When presented and performed live, it is accompanied by juxtaposed images of the Lebanese capital’s city life and avian migration across the Mediterranean Sea, representing themes strongly woven into the music. In her variegated artistic process, Nour has undertaken and recorded interviews with diasporas and repatriates to commemorate, share, heal, and envision. These source materials become the album’s core elements that loop, narrate, and return throughout time, with Nour responding with both instruments and her voice. Chanting in dialogue with the interviewees, crafting near-mantras, Nour further congregates these materially-rooted soundscapes by including field recordings that she gleaned during 2018–2021 in Lebanon and her subsequent move to Berlin. Embedded within the composition are manipulated sounds from objects that symbolize migration, such as office bells, a luggage wheel, car parts, and bureaucratic paperwork. Musically, the songs are enriched by Nour’s improvisations on classical piano, electronics, synthesizers, violin, and various percussion instruments. As time is sculpted and the layers blur, words become specters, while an entropic orchestra of drums and melody rises, giving shape to an in-between space for those who have left, and stayed. "I would like to extend my gratitude to Tania Kammoun for contributing a field recording used on the album; Gabriel Haddad for providing visuals for my live show; Omar Adel for his work on studio video documentation and production; and most importantly, the interviewees who shared their voices and stories: Mahmoud Dabdoub, Asmabug, Kareen Nahas, and Anonymous." – Nour aural conduct, 2024. Ba - Chotila Anthrophony Pit Ba - Chotila Anthrophony Pit 13 September 2026 6:00 pm - 6:40 pm Chotila Anthrophony Pit begins before arrival. It enters carrying the residue of earlier anthrophonic listenings before joining the pilgrimage at Chotila, where more than thirty thousand people move together across a thousand stone steps. Rather than documenting the climb, the piece listens for the moment a multitude begins to sound as one: when breath, footsteps, chants, waiting, negotiation, complaint, devotion, bells, and silence reorganize into a shared field of human presence. Near the end, the listening turns toward a newborn carried through the ascent before leaving with the mountain's quiet polyphonies—silences still resonating with those who have just passed through them. अथक (Athak): Transdisciplinary Entries into Anthrophony A sonic research project across mixtapes, radio works, situated listening, live transmissions, performance, zines, meditative forms, and interpersonal acoustic encounters. Athak is an ongoing transdisciplinary exploration of anthrophony- the sound of human presence- as a site of exhaustion, devotion, rupture, complaint, negotiation, care, and renewal. The project approaches anthrophony not simply as environmental sound or human-made noise, but as a relational and bodily condition: the collective hum of proximity, friction, waiting, fatigue, ritual, and co-existence. It asks how human beings acoustically inhabit thresholds of depletion and invigoration, and what forms of listening emerge when exhaustion itself becomes shared. One recurring site of inquiry is a Chamunda temple pilgrimage in Chotila, Saurashtra, Gujarat, where thousands of pilgrims ascend over a thousand steep steps toward the deity. The climb unfolds as an evolving sonic field: interrupted breath, chants, coughs, devotional cries, negotiations, footsteps, metallic frictions, pauses, murmurs, complaint, silence, anticipation. Human sound accumulates as density. Across this site, Athak listens for acoustic triggers and thresholds, moments in which bodily exhaustion reorganises into participation, attention, and renewed presence. By the time many pilgrims arrive, they appear depleted, dissociated, irritated, or physically strained. Yet, as the temple doors open and the aarti begins, a subtle but undeniable shift passes through the gathering. Breath changes tempo. Posture alters. Fatigue briefly reorganises itself into rhythm, movement, devotion, and collective attention. Athak dwells within this unstable transition. What does collective human exhaustion sound like before the body reorganises itself? Is invigoration innate, or does it emerge relationally, from ritual, proximity, sonic density, waiting, devotion, and the difficult labour of being with one another? Working through field recordings, fragmented narrative, live acoustic interventions, radio dramaturgy, responsive performance, and situated listening, the project develops an evolving anatomy of sonic sites: their pacifiers, neutralisers, hums, frictions, avoidances, emotional residues, and architectures of exit. Its structure remains intentionally disoriented. Encounters interrupt one another. Memory folds into atmosphere. Breathlessness becomes rhythm; rhythm becomes form. Listening is approached not as extraction, but as relation. Rather than seeking to stabilise or control anthrophony, Athak attempts to earnestly, relentlessly remain with it, to sit beside its excesses, mistranslations, ruptures, fragile forms of reconciliation, and sonic booms. Project Coordinator- Virali Bukhiriya A Radiophrenia commission produced with the support of Creative Scotland. Biography Pratyush Pushkar / ba is a transdisciplinary artist, poet, and researcher building a poetics of attention rooted in listening, gesture, ecological intimacy, and metaphysical longing. Working across sound, language, translation, image, food, and participatory forms, their practice traces hidden continuities between beings, atmospheres, and states of relation. Through immersive, research-led methodologies, ba constructs spaces for alternative sensing—where vulnerability, slowness, and collective attunement become ways of knowing. Their recent work turns toward the poetics of anthrophony- the layered, often overlooked textures of collective human sound-approaching listening as a site of reconciliation, memory, and social imagination. Situated between sonic inquiry, poetic practice, and ecological attention, ba’s works have travelled internationally across exhibitions, radio, residencies, and commissions. http://www.studiobalone.com Tassia Camila Novaes Raimundo - fiery whisper - an imagined story about the atmosphere Tassia Camila Novaes Raimundo - fiery whisper - an imagined story about the atmosphere 13 September 2026 6:40 pm - 7:00 pm 'fiery whisper - an imagined story about the atmosphere' is a radio piece, a tale, a fable told with words and sounds. The proposal explores orality, the invention of poetic imagery, and the power of narrative and music as forms of cultural transmission. By bringing together sound and word, the presentation creates a space of encounter between language, imagination, and presence. Central to the text of this sonic fable is the concept of atmosphere-devenir, defined as an ongoing process of becoming in which air, bodies, sounds, and memories continuously affect one another. This notion frames the atmosphere as an active, relational force that transforms what is lost into echo, what is forgotten into resonance. By activating an atmosphere-devenir, the narrative proposes a shift in perception: an ethical and imaginative gesture that invites sensitivity to the invisible, trust in transformation, and a renewed understanding of our entanglement with the more-than-human world.

A score shapes the hour with a clear temporal architecture while deliberately leaving space for improvisation and individual decisions. Migration is approached not as a story but as a shifting network of sonic relations in three movements—Language/Home, Borders/Deterritorialisation, Movement—punctuated by solo passages. The material draws from the orchestra’s own recordings and archives: voice and multilingual traces, fractured music, animal worlds, the human world, nature. Refusing a single “red thread,” the work treats transmission itself as a compositional device: through the curtain of the radio wave, background becomes foreground, inviting attention to focus, drift, return, and drift again. In this way, migration hints toward otherness—that which is around us, which we always want to grasp, yet can never fully hold. Artist bio: Rundfunkorchestra is a loose collective of sound artists based around Weimar, Dresden, Leipzig and Linz, working “radio-first” across broadcast, installation, and live performance. Created by students of the "Experimental Radio" professorship at Bauhaus University Weimar, they not only focus on audio performances themselves. For example, they developed radiophonic instruments and formats—such as the portable FM performance system Funkstern Plus—and have presented works with stations and festivals including Radio CORAX, Radio Helsinki, and Radio Elsewhere and also Radiophrenia.

Paul's words take the idea of the ghost in the machine literally, bringing dead internet theory to life and asking what it means to live surrounded by ghosts. Vanja’s soundscape plays between several realities - some physically known to humanity, some only imagined, or being created outside our reach - and balances pessimism with the need for a space for dialogue, unattached to the span of a single lifetime. Behind those incorporeal presences are very real corporations with specific interests - how we can resist their machinations? Artist bios: Paul Currion has published fiction in The White Review, Ambit, and 3am Magazine, and his audiovisual installations have shown at the Vienna Biennale, Berlin Soundout!, and TransEuropa Belgrade. He works as a consultant to humanitarian organisations, and co-hosts the Belgrade AI Safety Group. Vanja Dabic is a Belgrade-based pianist and sound artist. In her musical practice she explores the wide variety of musical forms, from dense repetitions to echoing soundscapes to free improvisations. She is active in collaborative projects across media, and a tutor-player in the Javanese gamelan ensemble Taman Merak.

The project is inspired by my experience of misophonia (a disorder in which certain sounds trigger a fight-or-flight response) and the need to find control over sonic triggers, and to find beauty in something ugly. Artist bio: Ross Whyte is an award-winning Scottish composer who writes for film and theatre. He completed a PhD in Musical Composition at the University of Aberdeen. He later co-founded the duo WHYTE, an ambient electronic act known for modernising traditional Gaelic songs. The duo won the prestigious Scottish Gaelic Award for Arts and Culture in 2019. Ross currently performs with A New International. His new album 'Provenance' is out now.

Drawing from recurring historical stereotypes like the Mammy, Sapphire, and Jezebel, the work weaves together archival materials to examine how these representations persist and transform across different cultural landscapes. Through layered fragments of interviews, archival recordings, and found media, the piece creates a spatial environment where these stereotypes can be questioned, reinforced, contradicted, and brought into dialogue with one another. Different cultural elements collide and interact, forming a new realm where the complexity of Black women's representation becomes audible through the tension and interplay between opposing narratives. Originally composed for 7.1 surround sound with fragments moving spatially around the listener, this submission is a temporary stereo reduction. A proper stereo mix optimized for radio broadcast will be provided if selected. Artist bio: Aminata Soumaré is a Malian-Belgian sound artist and choreographer based in Brussels. Her practice explores the relationship between sound and movement through audio collage, sampling, and archive. Through past and future residencies at IPEM, Ultima Vez, and Q-O2, she continues to develop this research. In 2024, she was nominated for the NTR Podcast Prize with LINGO, an audio collage examining the N-word in Dutch-language media. She studied Radio and Sound at RITCS School of Arts and currently works as a sound artist and engineer on various projects.

Audio description is an access function that communicates the visual elements to a Blind or Visually Impaired person. This could be visuals in a film, performance, TV, a painting, sculpture etc. In a theatre space it is usually experienced through headphones with the live audio describer narrating the visual elements of the show. I have been working with writing description as a composed recitative styled material. The description is of a space and my choreography within it. I'm sending you a draft recording of such a text but my proposal is that I will rework this into a composition for several voices, as a chamber opera piece and re-record it. Even though I have never tried the radio format, I think it'll be really well suited for audio description work. Louise Ahl is a choreographer, performer, researcher and audio describer based in Stockholm, making experimental and choreographic performance and installation work. She creates both solo and collaborative multi-art-form pieces using movement, vocals, writing and sound. The work is often centralised around the relationship between the physical and metaphysical, whilst exploring access aesthetics. Louise’s work has shown across the UK (including Southbank Centre, BALTIC Centre of Contemporary Art, Nottdance Festival, Take Me Somewhere Festival, Submerge Festival, Tramway, Glasgow International and Experimentica Festival), and internationally. https://louiseahl.com/ https://www.instagram.com/l_o_u_i_s_e_a_h_l/ 2) Omer Eilam - Vision of the Valley of Dry Bones Vision of the Valley of Dry Bones is an acousmatic composition combining electroacoustic music, biblical text, and reflections on war and exile. Inspired by the dramatic vision of the prophet Ezekiel, I use spatial sound synthesis techniques to reconstruct the transformation of dry bones into living bodies, with shifting textures that move throughout the space. As a Jewish-Israeli artist living in Germany, I connect with Ezekiel’s vision of resurrection as a metaphor for personal and collective transformation. The work reflects on timeless notions of creation and destruction as well as their current manifestation in the Israel-Gaza war. It is therefore both a response to current events and a search for meaning through sound. Omer Eilam holds university degrees in Neuroscience, Computational Biology and Music. In 2014 he moved to The Netherlands to study electronic music in The Institute of Sonology, focusing on the music of Karlheinz Stockhausen and working as a sound projectionist and synthesizer creator. At the same time he became active in the environmental movement, co-founding Extinction Rebellion’s online activist radio and writing extensively on the topic. Since 2021 he lives in Falkensee (Germany) and continues to explore the many facets of the human condition through music, activism, writing and Anthroposophy. https://www.omereilam.com/ 3) Judith Geffert - Atemübung/ Breathing Exercise We humans breathe every second of our lives without thinking about it. And yet it is so difficult to remember. Judith Geffert is a radio documentary maker from Magdeburg, now based in Berlin. In their work, they like to explore the thin lines between journalism, art and academics. Their work experience comprises experimental radio features, narrative storytelling podcasts, radio plays, reportages and short journalistic pieces. Their latest radio play "Kontaktanzeigen" ("Personal Ads for Lonely Hearts") is exploring the possibilities of dialogue across generations of queer people in East Germany. Instagram: @judithgeffert 4) Edgardo H E Martinez – Mantras The work explores the concept of the mantra from an electroacoustic standpoint, weaving together its ritual dimension—a repetitive formula in Eastern traditions—with its psychological aspect as the persistent reiteration of ideas. From sound material processed through diverse synthesis techniques, cyclical textures emerge, subtly transformed over time. The repetition of sonic patterns generates a temporal drift that proposesan immersive experience, shaping a soundscape poised between meditation and recurrence. Electroacoustic music composer and university teacher. Professor at the Universidad Nacional del Litoral, Argentina, in Electroacoustic Music (until March 2023), and Music Theory and Analysis. Compositions performed in Argentina, USA, Canada (presented by GEMS, Group of the Electronic Music, McGill University), France (Bourges), Italy, Spain, Czech Republic, Mexico, Brasil, Ecuador and China.

Centered on two red berries, Anne and Pitti, the narrative explores various "holes" originating from a door's peephole. As the story progresses, these "holes" appearing in different scenes intricately intertwine, creating a complex temporal experience. Through the voices of the characters, the narrative gains a vivid presence and lifelike quality. This work transforms a spatial installation into a specialized radio medium, inviting the audience to navigate a surreal, auditory landscape of interconnected voids and narratives. Born in 2001 and based in Kanagawa, Japan, Seina Takaguchi is a graduate student in Media Art at Tama Art University. Their practice explores voice, narrative, and vulnerability through sound installations and radio performances. Notable activities include performances at BankART KAIKO (2024) and participation in the group exhibition "Vertex" (2026) as curatorial director. Their 2024 graduation project was selected as an outstanding work. They focus on the ethics of care and feminist perspectives, utilizing the radio medium for experimental expression. https://www.instagram.com/shenawalk/ 6) 23melodic - Soundscape sonic arts This soundscape explores the musical notes of everyday environments by blending field recordings from inside the home and outdoors with live instrumental elements. Textures were layered, stretched, and manipulated through frequency multiplication to reveal tonal qualities and rhythms. The piece transforms familiar sounds into an immersive sonic landscape, inviting listeners to reconsider the ordinary as something atmospheric, dynamic, and unexpectedly expressive. 23melodic is a composer and sound artist who loves building worlds through music. She creates for film, TV, and games, blending her classical roots with alternative soundscapes, field recordings, and whatever textures spark her curiosity. Her work leans into emotion and atmosphere, using sound to tell stories, shift mood, and make the familiar feel new. Whether she’s working with instruments, everyday noises, or experimental processing, Amariah’s focus is always on creating something that feels alive, cinematic, and deeply felt. https://instagram.com/23melodic?igshid=OGQ5ZDc2ODk2ZA%3D%3D&utm_source=qr 7) Coline Cornélis- marais wiels (8:00) The Wiels Marsh, in the south of Brussels, exists because of an accident. In 2015, during excavation work for an underground car park, construction crews punctured an aquifer. Groundwater flooded the site, the project was abandoned, and a new wetland slowly emerged. Without being planned or designed, the marsh became home to reeds, amphibians, insects, birds, and countless other forms of life. It also echoes a much older landscape: Brussels itself was born in the wetlands of the Senne valley, and its name derives from the old Dutch Broekzele — "settlement in the marsh". Today, after centuries of draining, canalising and building over these environments, the Wiels Marsh has become an unexpected refuge for biodiversity, reminding us how quickly ecosystems can return when given space. At the same time, the site has become a place of debate. For many residents, artists, scientists and activists, the marsh represents a rare common space where ecological processes unfold freely within the city. For developers, it remains valuable building land. Its future raises questions about how cities choose between construction and preservation, and about what kinds of life are allowed to flourish in urban environments. This composition brings together recordings made over several visits to the marsh across a number of years, blending different seasons, weather conditions and moments of listening into a single soundscape. The piece unfolds in two parts: the first above the water's surface, the second below it. It closes with one of my very first underwater recordings. It was technically imperfect, full of friction, handling noise and heavy interference. Rather than removing these artefacts, I embraced them, transforming them with resonators until they became part of the marsh's imagined acoustic world. This piece is a subjective listening journey through the Wiels Marsh: an invitation to encounter a place born by chance, where water interrupted a human project and another world quietly began to grow. Coline Cornélis is an artist and composer working across music, field recording, soundscape creation, installation, sculpture, scenography, and drawing. Her practice explores ecology, recovery, and the interconnectedness of living beings through immersive sonic environments. Using DIY processes and recycled materials, she creates sound ecosystems shaped by resonance, silence, and emotional nuance. Memories, dreams and feelings circulate within her compositions, inviting attentive listening as a shared act. Her sparse drawings extend this sensibility visually, emphasizing balance and presence. Through sound and image, she proposes spaces of reconnection—between bodies, environments, and the fragile harmonies of the living world. colinecornelis.com https://www.instagram.com/cocornel/ https://soundcloud.com/colinecornelis Shaun Robert - flowers of the moon Part 1 Shaun Robert - flowers of the moon Part 1 13 September 2026 11:00 pm - 11:30 pm Shaun Robert - flowers of the moon Part 1 : In five tracks ; rescission, aqueous, Incompatibilism, camber, Cryptid Cross talk & frequency drifting pulls the strings of the heart & relating to loops and rough editing, audio drop outs , a Sonic Organic. A mix of forms in an expanding waves, nudging & slating whim , composition dealt in reality , a truth of intimate confessional & intruding a microphone , the tension of triggered sounds to ape pictures of life Artist bio: Shaun Robert (1966 - ) has been working with sound from an early age. Starting like many with a domestic tape recorder; years finger poised on the pause button; tunnelling into the present & falling into deep concentration; in a trance of coloured sound trials; impromptu expressions processed & filtered into moments of congealed sound; also using field recording, in voxpop & audio voyeurism, spoken word & singing. Feeling the next transition is about to happen; building deep relationships with that aesthetic; this interaction shows itself in within all his works. And the importance of sounds from analogue radio, magnetic tape manipulation can not be understated Website/social links https://shaunrobert.bandcamp.com mykel boyd - Certain Secret Methods Two mykel boyd - Certain Secret Methods Two 13 September 2026 11:30 pm - 11:59 pm Certain Secret Methods Two is a new 27 minute composition created specifically for radia.fm. It uses tape loops, harmonium, singing bowls, sequential circuits pro one and field recordings to create a space for you to visit whenever you like. I am intrigued by the concept of dead drops, codes and ciphers and Steganography. In this recording is embedded, messages, codes and location details. Perhaps you will listen closely and figure out what it is all about? Artist bio: Mykel Boyd (*1970, Kankakee, IL) makes sound recordings, conceptual artworks, photos, installations and films. By experimenting with aleatoric processes, Boyd creates work in which a fascination with the clarity of content and an uncompromising attitude towards conceptual and minimal art can be found.

14 The Spectral Transmissions Research Unit 7 - MIDNIGHT IN THE HAUNTED KARAOKE The Spectral Transmissions Research Unit 7 - MIDNIGHT IN THE HAUNTED KARAOKE 14 September 2026 12:00 am - 1:00 am It is nighttime in the city. Tatty terraces and scattered concrete tower blocks, the detritus of a vast up-turned wheelie bin bathed in orange twilight. Around this time of year strange things happen. The ether is populated with unruly beasts. Pipes can be heard tapping in the darkness, lightbulbs flicker, music plays on an unplugged jukebox and faint calls of distant laughter can be heard echoing in the subway. An empty karaoke booth crackles into life and the soft crooning lament drifts through the still corridors. Someone has entered the building. Artist bio: The Spectral Transmissions Research Unit is a collaboration between Ben Branagan and Luke Pendrell dedicated to constructing, receiving and transmitting Spectral Assemblages, Producing both temporal artefacts and modes of experimental cognitive practice. Each transmission develops through Spectral Assemblage, where fragments of everyday life gather in stochastic accumulators of latent potential, forming temporary constellations of association and alignment. These fluid states of indeterminism generate unexpected configurations, Denkinstruments enabling alternative modes of thought and meaning. Before transmission, assemblages are collapsed or fixed. Broken symmetries crystalize into temporal moments. Fluidity is sacrificed to enable closer inspection of the encoded relations and emergent entanglements.

Field recordings of international radio, multilingual voices, fragments of music, propaganda, coded signals, static, and noise form the raw dissonant material. Rather than smoothing contradictions into harmony, the piece treats these overlapping transmissions as sonic realities: unresolved, colliding, and yet full of latent energy. Against this backdrop, accordion, electronic violin, and electronics enter as resonant partners. Their sounds align with radio fragments, drift in counterpoint, or resonate literally with shared frequencies. Improvisation and composition intertwine to shape the oscillation between noise and listening, disturbance and melody, rupture and connection. The result is a radiophonic piece of cinematic listening, that inhabits the in-between: a world where static becomes signal, where differences demand dialogue, and where fleeting resonances hint at the possibility of renewal. drift-page: https://anjakreysing.de/wp/drift/ Artist bio: Anja Kreysing and Sascha Stadlmeier aka EMERGE are German sound artists working at the intersection of radiophonic art, experimental composition, and live electronics. Kreysing’s practice explores “cinema of the mind” through accordion & electronics, field recordings, and Deep Listening–based approaches to post-cinematic compositions. Stadlmeier’s work spans musique concrète, drone, and noise, combining distorted minimal materials with improvisation on electronics, electric violin, and objects. Together they create hybrid radiophonic performances where shortwave fragments, granular processes, and live instrumental interplay form immersive acoustic environments. Both artists present internationally and are deeply embedded in experimental music networks, festivals, and interdisciplinary sound research contexts.

The dreamscapes created are based of dreams of immigrants, mostly Mexican immigrants, in the United States. Combining experimental music by Henna Chou, PanchaXBeats and Jeanelle Ramirez, this dreamscape explores our innermost landscapes. As an immigrant having a stark contrast to their current location, I explored how landscapes become imprinted on us through experimental video and sound works. All dreams recorded from September 2020 - May 2021 through a dream hotline based out of Detroit, Michigan. Artist bio: Natalia Rocafuerte is a graphic artist, video editor and DJ. She works as industrial photographer and an adjunct professor at University of Wisconsin La Crosse. Rocafuerte has worked with museums, non-profits, festivals and commercial brands; creating vibrant and exciting graphics, websites, illustration, videos and art installations. Rocafuerte’s recent installation film “Dream of Emma and Tony” was featured and won best “Michigan Filmmaker” at the 59th Ann Arbor Film Festival. Rocafuerte was also featured in Remezcla for "Top 40 Latinx Texas Artists to Know in 2020".

The collective comes together on the first Friday of every month at 3:02pm ET using custom-made software. Some sessions don't have a description and the one on October 3th doesn't have even a title. However, some have a more detail description as in The Spiral: The record groove or a strip of tape moves forward by circling, slipping into another layer each time. That coiling motion echoes how time forms paths that don’t quite repeat. The spiral frames the way patterns return at different scales, from tiny biological curves to movements that shift light, air, and weather. A shared structure keeps resurfacing and shows how things grow and reorganize, how memory drifts, and how repetition comes back slightly off axis, opening another turn. Artist bio: The Conduction Series is a collaborative live radio broadcast produced by sound and transmission artists across the Americas on Wave Farm’s WGXC 90.7-FM Radio for Open Ears in New York’s Upper Hudson Valley. Artists names are: Betsey Biggs, August Black, Peter Courtemanche, Florencia Curci, Jeff Economy, Anna Friz, Jimmy Garver, Maximilian Goldfarb, Virginia Mantinian, and Rodrigo Ríos Zunino. The Conduction Series is syndicated on Radio MonteAudio in Montevideo, Uruguay, Radio Tsonami in Valparaíso, Chile, Radio CASo in Buenos Aires, Argentina, CITR FM in Vancouver, Canada, New Adventures in Sound Art in Ontario, Canada, and on Radio 1190 in Boulder/Denver, USA. https://conduction.wavefarm.org/ Radiophrenia Shorts 19 Radiophrenia Shorts 19 14 September 2026 4:00 am - 5:00 am Radiophrenia Shorts 20 Radiophrenia Shorts 20 14 September 2026 5:00 am - 6:00 am Radiophrenia Shorts 21 Radiophrenia Shorts 21 14 September 2026 6:00 am - 7:00 am Radiophrenia Shorts 70A Radiophrenia Shorts 70A 14 September 2026 7:00 am - 7:30 am 1 Netta Weiser - Songs That Yusra Collects (20:00) 2 Francesca Dimech - O Fargam i Valletta (4:57) 3 Szem – I Have Wings (12:10) 1) Netta Weiser - Songs That Yusra Collects This radiogram delves into the work of artist and filmmaker Yusra Abu Kaf on subversive Bedouin women singing. In her practice, Abu Kaf archives and documents women’s songs that carry messages of resistance to violence against women. Often embedded within love songs and performative gestures, these messages are transmitted across generations as acts of survival, care, and protest. I visited Yusra in her village, located in the Negev desert, and recorded her during a high-tension period between Israeli police and Bedouin tribes. This radiogram interweaves live storytelling, recorded conversations, field notes, and sounds from Yusra’s archive and artworks. Songs That Yusra Collects is part of Radio-Choreography, a long-term artistic research project exploring the relations between live broadcasting and muted histories, the sonic transmission of embodied knowledge, and collective listening as a form of being together. https://radio-choreography.net/ Netta Weiser (b. 1991) is a Berlin-based artist and choreographer working across performance, sound installation, and experimental radio. In 2019, she founded Radio-Choreography, a long-term research project exploring the transformation of dance into sound, the relationship between live broadcasting and muted histories, and listening as a mode of being together. Her work has been presented internationally, including at KW Institute for Contemporary Art Berlin, Tanzquartier Wien, Badischer Kunstverein Karlsruhe, Cambridge University, Onassis Stegi, WDR, and TONSPUR MQ Vienna. In 2021, she was a fellow at the Akademie der Künste Berlin, and in 2025 at the VALIE EXPORT Center in Linz. 2) Francesca Dimech - O Fargam i Valletta This piece made for Amgueddfa Cymru, National Museum of Wales is a response to an early photograph of a street in Valletta, Malta, taken around 1845 by Swansea-born pioneer Richard “The Rev” Calvert Jones. My Maltese dual citizenship was recently approved, so the Wales-Malta connection felt intensely personal as my late grandfather was born in Valletta. I turned the photograph into music, mapping its tones, shadows and textures into sound, letting light become pitch, and dark become rhythm and noise, then built a soundscape around the image, incorporating voice, instruments and field recordings. Jones, often cited as taking the first ever photograph in Wales, was an experimenter who altered and stitched images, so I treated the photo as something to manipulate and reassemble. The piece listens for coincidence, migration, and the strange ways places speak to each other across time, tracing echoes from Jones’ era to present day Wales. Francesca Dimech is a Maltese-Welsh multi-instrumentalist, composer, performer and community music facilitator from Cardiff. She writes for stage and screen, including musical theatre, theme music for children’s television, and songs for her bands and projects in Welsh and English. She builds narrative sound worlds from field recordings and found sound, for radio and installations, combining voice, trumpet, guitar, percussion and electronics. She has toured internationally with original music and theatre. She makes collaborative work with adults with learning disabilities, including non verbal participants. Neurodiverse and proudly DIY, she explores place, language and identity through noise, humour and feeling. http://www.francescadimech.com @ffotoffrancesca 3) Szem – I Have Wings This piece began as a sketch during a live performance at Gong in Chengdu, China. I am looking for a platform to broadcast a new composition that extends this work, an experimental sound piece collaging cut-up near-death experience vocals with subliminal messages for heart expansion, framed within left-field electronic textures. As a performer, my goal is to make music that reflects the unseen - the interconnected, heart-centered beings I believe we are. I believe now, more than ever, the world needs music that pushes boundaries, and allows shadow to surface whilst inviting deep, cerebral reflection. Szem is the left-field electronic project of visual and sound artist Laura Hunt. Szem means eye. It speaks to the many ways we see — through the body, through the third eye, through memory, and through one another. Combining hardware synthesis and electronic sampling with percussive sculptures, cut-up vocals and poetry, Hunt creates immersive sonic environments. Atmospheric water is sonified through hydrophone microphones; glass sculptures are amplified and transformed into percussive instruments. Her compositions weave together analogue hardware and digital processes, at times embedding subliminal frequencies that invite expanded consciousness and heart awareness. Hunt’s practice seeks to decode and conjure. https://www.instagram.com/laur_n_orda/ Radiophrenia Shorts 70B Radiophrenia Shorts 70B 14 September 2026 7:30 am - 8:00 am 4 Tremon Lee - Westburn Session (0:34) 5 Xinyuan Deng - Where Paths Meet? (6:44) 6 Angel Hubris - Nëna's Predictions (9:29) 7 Anne-Marie Copestake – Athlone (5:00) 4) Tremon Lee - Westburn Session Westburn Sessions is a 34 second excerpt of sounds collected from Westburn skatepark in Aberdeen (specifically my favourite tricks - Frontside Smith grinds and Slappy grinds). I then chopped the audio up on reaper and pieced together some form of rhythmic phrasing out of what I captured. I also sampled some sounds from my previous sessions and assigned them to a midi keyboard, pitching and warping the original artefact to coincide with the skateboard groove. The purpose of this was simply to explore the idea of sampling the sounds of this activity from this location, and to fuse two of my favourite things - music and skateboarding. Tremon Lee is the experimental solo project and alias of Glasgow based Folk songwriter - Scott J. Brice. This project is a means for Brice to explore different ideas and compositional realms that may not be thematic with his other Folk inspired creative output. https://linktr.ee/scottjbrice https://on.soundcloud.com/Q6r3kC2a4bcl0Y7ncd 5) Xinyuan Deng - Where Paths Meet? Where Paths Meet?, originally created as a quadraphonic fixed media piece, takes listeners on a captivating sonic journey that celebrates the spirit of exploration and discovery. Inspired by the fluid transitions found in video games and the endless curiosity they foster, the piece unfolds as an open-world soundscape, where each step opens new and unexpected realms. The journey begins with familiar, organic sounds—the crunch of footsteps, the gentle murmur of a creek, and the distant roar of a waterfall. These elements, recorded from everyday experiences such as climbing towers, hiking trails, and pausing near waterfalls, ground the listener in a recognizable, tangible reality. As the piece progresses, however, these boundaries dissolve. Much like moving between levels in a video game, the soundscape morphs, blending natural and surreal elements to create dreamlike, otherworldly spaces. Guided by evolving rhythms and layered textures, the piece shifts between the real and the fantastical. Xinyuan Deng is a composer, pianist, sound artist, and educator from China and is currently based in the United States. Deng’s work bridges traditional Chinese aesthetics with contemporary textures, exploring memory, movement, and flow through layered, immersive acoustic, electroacoustic, and multimedia soundscapes. Her compositions have been performed internationally by PHACE Contemporary Ensemble, The Rhythm Method String Quartet, ENSEMBLE CONCEPT/21, TEMPO Ensemble, Zhejiang Symphony Orchestra, and Harbin Symphony Orchestra. She holds degrees from the Central Conservatory of Music and Indiana University’s Jacobs School of Music, where she is completing her Doctor of Music degree. https://xinyuan-deng.github.io 6) Angel Hubris - Nëna's Predictions My grandmother, Nëna, humbly says she doesn’t know what she is talking about when she reads coffee grounds, but throughout my life everyone acknowledged her psychic intellect and talent. I have transcribed and translated to English this recording in Albanian of my aunt (Halla) and grandparents remembering two occasions when my grandmother predicted major events in people’s lives by interpreting the abstract residue in their coffee cups. The anecdotes speak to the realities of life during the Hoxha dictatorship, like the impossibility of buying things like mascara inside the country, or how relationships were navigated when so many details of life were controlled by the government. The namesake of this piece, Moj Fallxhore, combines “moj”, a vocative particle used towards women and girls to get their attention, but also spoken endearingly in certain contexts, and “Fallxhore”, which means Fortuneteller. You can access the transcript here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1F1GY9QWM-xjC9yeuxzVdJ80nuj2-OqHUO3qMSSBudoc/edit?tab=t.0 Angel Hubris, aka Bimbi, is an Albanian-American artist, writer, and performer living in Brooklyn, NY. They work with sound, video, sculpture, performance, and text, exploring belonging/displacement, identity, violence, gender/sexuality, the body politic, mysticism/occultism, dis/ability and disobedience. Their work has been published in Montez Press Radio, Petit Mort, Currant Jam Magazine, SHOTA, Layout Magazine, and No, Dear. They have performed at Performance Space New York, Pioneer Works, Recess Art, Text2Speech, and were a part of the 2025 Performa Biennal for Pakui Hardware’s Spores. http://www.bimbimafia.com instagram: @angel.hubris 7) Anne-Marie Copestake – Athlone Synopsis of piece: Athlone is edited from oral history and field recordings made while I was researching the life of a housing estate during its centenary year, towards making a film. The film considers the estate and its community, tenant led activism, housing and homes, and the enduring impact of chronic housing issues in a critically altered environment following the depletion of council housing stock. Wider research for the project looked into histories of squatting and creative tenant led activism. The oral history recordings aimed to highlight narratives and experiences previously unrecorded and unconsidered. I worked with Jamie Grier to mix the soundtrack. Working on the film led to a further enquiry into conscious and unconscious resistance, how might histories be outlined, referred to, and honoured in fragmented oral history narratives. Anne-Marie Copestake is an artist living and working in Glasgow. Attentive to daily acts, acts of refusal, tenderness, narrative, oral history, temporary and longer term communities, her work is concerned with social political conditions surrounding choices, or a lack of choices, and an exploration of histories and environments that may have contributed. Anne-Marie often works collaboratively.

The campus is situated along the Charles River in Cambridge, MA. Over a geological blip of a time period, the marshy, winding, and fluctuating river form of Quinobequin (an indigenous word meaning "it turns" or "meandering") was dredged, straightened, and made static. These enormous industrializing and colonizing efforts created the Charles river as we know it today. This soundscape tells the story of land change/landmaking that converted Quniobequin to the Charles River. It begins with raucous stacked sounds of a healthy marsh, which slowly drop away and are replaced by the sounds of an unhealthy marsh, which ultimately give way to soft sounds of footsteps recorded in the MIT nanotechnology laboratory. Aubrie James (b. 1989) uses her intimate understanding of ecology to probe scientific methods of knowing. Her interdisciplinary work plays with scientific aesthetics and convention to theorise ecology as a practice of constructing ideal/material landscapes. Holding a PhD in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, her research led her to question how scientific convention had limited her perception and communication of the natural world. Her art practice began as scientific field experiments which were covertly designed as land art, and has expanded to include sculpture, sound, multimedia installation, and socially engaged eco-art. She lives and works in Queens, New York. aubriejames.net instagram: @atclouds 3) Yiannis Andronikidis & James Hazel - Starved for Weather; An Exercise in Storm Squatting Starved for Weather; An Exercise in Storm Squatting is a sound work that borrows phrases from George Kuchar’s Weather Diaries 3 (1988) to ask: how do we transcribe the untranscribable? What if storm chasing—long linked to post-romantic heroic thrill-seekers, popular culture, masculinity, and para-scientific enquiry—could be reimagined as an act of radically transcribing a new present tense? Storms in a teacup, no-more! Storm chasers’ adrenaline rush in four-wheel simulations… Lo-fi recordings dictated by the trained ears of radio operators… Systems imploding and ejecting paranoid inscriptions… How might transcription trace those dizzying devotions and distortions, and become a cutting tool through and against the numbing of disaster? Here, squatting embodies a duality: a burnt-out presence with no choice but to inhabit this unstable present, and a refusal to yield to the all-engulfing erasure. James Hazel is a composer, artist and writer working on the unceded lands of the Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung people. He is the director of the working-class opera company ‘Poor Opera.’ Yiannis Andronikidis is an art historian, poet, and translator based in Athens, Greece, working across text-image-sound through modes of rehearsing and archiving. jameshazel.org https://yiannisandronikidis.com/ https://www.instagram.com/poor_opera/ https://www.instagram.com/john_andriou/ 4) Georgina Canifru - I'm sorry Miniatura compuesta en contexto de residencia en el Taller Experimental de Música para alumns de composición en la Universidad Nacional de Córdoba, Argentina impartido por el músico y profesor Gonzalo Biffarella.

Fiiiiiiiiiiuuuuuuuuu Fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiuuuuuuuu' 'Meandering through Signal, Silence and Noise' is a wildly associative sonic essay that winds through the invention of spaces in between words, the echo of the Big Bang, cicada songs, the hum of the Philips Senseo coffee maker and electromagnetic Whistlers - tracing unexpected connections across cosmic and domestic scales. 'We alternated between fiddling with a little transistor radio - picking up all kinds of obscure signals - and reading passages from Finnegans Wake aloud to each other.' Sjoerd Leijten (he/him) is a transdisciplinary maker working with sound, language, and imagery. His practice merges the discursive with the immersive, aiming to resonate in both head and gut. Listening closely to the environments and ecologies that we are a part of, he collects field recordings, electromagnetic signals, images and words to build music compositions, radio works and cinematic installations. https://www.sjoerdleijten.nl/ https://www.instagram.com/noiseful_joy/ Katarina Ranković - The Story of Room 03 Katarina Ranković - The Story of Room 03 14 September 2026 9:00 am - 9:30 am Based on a true event, The Story of Room 03 tells of a fraught encounter between an artist and a haughty exhibition space in a former Georgian home in East London. With only 10 days to go until the scheduled art exhibition, artist and room cannot see eye to eye on creative matters and risk having nothing to show to the public. With the artist's reputation, the room's dignity, and the visitor's satisfaction at stake, unlikely intimacies develop between the three in this love letter to making room. Artist bio: Katarina Ranković is a Glasgow-based artist, writer and performer working across voice, text and moving image. Her practice explores selfhood and subjectivity as things that can attach not only to people but also to spaces, objects and stories. Since 2012 she has been developing The One Woman Empathy Circus, a series of character-based performances in which she channels different fictional figures through a single body and voice. She holds a practice-based PhD in Art and teaches Fine Art at the Glasgow School of Art.

Ikura-san's bar was bathed in golden November light, the wooden furniture, a multitude of displayed items and the counter gleaming as if to rival the rows of flashing bottles and glasses. Two large television screens were showing a science fiction anime film oozing a 60s male gaze. The day before, I had read about the Japanese concept of “Tsukumogami” (付喪神, "artefact spirits"): Animated everyday objects in Japanese folklore. Mr Ikura skilfully polished glasses while answering my questions about garbage and the values we attribute to it. Great thanks to Daniel for translating! Datscha Radio’s journey was made possible through the support of Kunstfonds Bonn and the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and the Media, Germany. Credits: Recording&photos: Gabi Schaffner/Datscha Radio © 2025 Voices: Daniel Miller; Ikura-san. Nov.10, Kobe, Japan. Artist bio: Gabi Schaffner works as a transdisciplinary artist across radio art, composition, and performance. Her artistic practice is inspired by the methods of poetic ethnography in connection with Fluxus-like mise-en-scènes, radio-making and sound art performances. Since 2012, she has maintained “Datscha Radio”, a nomadic transmission project that links the medium of radio to ecological issues. In 2025/26, Datscha Radio travelled to Japan to explore the connotations of “waste/garbage” in Japanese culture. Schaffner has been realising award-winning productions with Deutschlandfunk Kultur, radia.fm, Hessian Cultural Radio and ABC Australia. She lives (mostly) in Berlin.

It speaks to the intimate bond between people and place, where the wounding of the land is reflected in the estrangement from self and others. Unresolved fragments and interventions hold entangled temporalities of nostalgia, disruption, and futurity. This collage of field recordings, live improvisation, and sonic sketches unfolds through nomadic landscapes; tracing recurring motifs of inherited grief, rituals of remembrance, and the quiet care of sustaining life in desolate states. Bio: Sophia Mitiku is a Korean-Ethiopian singer and musical artist working across the intersections of landscape, memory, and cultural heritage. Working across music, performance, and installation, Sophia builds immersive sonic environments that move between experimental sound practices while appealing to pop sensibilities, focusing on the voice as a mutating, transfiguring, and embodied instrument. Alongside her solo practice, Sophia engages in collaborative and research-based projects, often working closely with visual artists, musicians, and cultural practitioners. Her process emphasizes speculative theory and interdisciplinary exchange.

The catalogue is made up of several dozen sound recordings featuring squeaky, creaking, screeching or otherwise noisy swing sets. The reasons for swing noise are various – loose connections or fasteners, aging of the materials used in the construction of the swing, weather conditions affecting them, as well as the load and overload to which the swing is subjected. Although most of the recordings feature swings that only minimally differ in terms of mechanics, construction and materials used, their noise is never identical, providing a sound testimony to the environment in which the swing is placed. Swinging, photos – Ada Ruszkiewicz; Idea, recording, editing and mixing – Ernests Vilsons. Artist bio: Ernests Vilsons is a Latvian composer living in Rīga. He writes music for acoustic instruments and electronic means, creates sound installations and performances, and collects field recordings. He is interested in harmony, time, silence, chance, representation and transcription. E. Vilsons studied at the Institute of Sonology at the Royal Conservatoire in The Hague. His master's research project “Well-Structured Vocalizations: An Attempt To Imitate Birdsong” was awarded the Konrad Boehmer Foundation Prize in 2020.

The composition draws primarily on material gathered through Do You Hear The Silence?, a participatory walk-in listening installation developed in collaboration with Joanna Zabielska during Sokhon's 2025 residency with philomena+ and kulturen in bewegung in Vienna. Rooted in experiences of being silenced, A Foreign Silence approaches silence through memory, testimony, and lived experience. Drawing on archival sound, field recordings, and voices gathered through interviews, the work reflects on what emerges when speech is interrupted or withheld. It asks: what do we associate with the absence of sound? What can silence reveal? And how are experiences of silence shaped by geopolitical realities?

Trains, planes, boats, metros, escalators, rickshaws and human motion - finally stepping out out into deep sand. Sonic signatures to be recognised by those in the local geographical area. Abstract sounds to everyone else. The Berlin S-Bahn, Bengaluru metros, Staten Island ferries, squeaky floor boards in Copenhagen to pilgrims walking around an idol in a small dark temple in the centre of Lhasa. Steam, smoke, electricity and carbon expended into the atmosphere. Travel certainly broadens the mind, but it often also impacts our future. How to square this circle? Artist bio: Keith de Mendonca took his first tentative steps into field recording in 2000 and since then he has been a contributor to the long-running radio show “Framework” on Resonance FM. His audio recordings have been aired on the ABC, BBC, ORF and other radio stations worldwide. Keith’s work has been used in the soundtracks of experimental films, appeared on CDs and been the subject of a DivFuse installation in London. For the last 2 years Keith has also been photographing live music events in London.

Cristina Marras - Incantation for Restoring Democracy (4:50) 3 Akari Komura - drops and a breeze (7:44) 4 Christiane Prehn and Wolfgang Meyer – Gravefieldsounds (3:31) 1) Nichola Scrutton - Lateral Lateral was originally commissioned for High-Slack-Low-Slack-High – a suite of audio works relating to the Clyde River curated by Minty Donald for GI Festival of Visual Art 2012. Subsequently, I created a studio version of the work, which has been broadcast internationally. The starting point for the work was the idea of a ‘Lateral System’ - a system of navigational aids comprising shapes, colours and numbers, used to guide boats up river channels into ports and docks. River water sounds, place names, info from tidal charts and signal/radio sounds serve as signposts, rooting Lateral in the real world. But the flow of water and rhythms of a vocal landscape contribute to a sense of multiple spatial and historical resonances, and to ideas of flowing with and against the current. Nichola Scrutton is a composer, artist, performer, and facilitator based in Glasgow. https://www.nicholascrutton.co.uk https://nicholascrutton.bandcamp.com http://eepurl.com/gihZh9 IG: @nic_scrutton BS: @nicholascrutton.bsky.social 2) M. Cristina Marras - Incantation for Restoring Democracy This piece reflects a journey from witnessing US events and feeling powerless to taking creative action. As an independent audio producer living in Sardinia (Italy), I could not make sense of my desperation while witnessing ICE violence in Minneapolis. I was horrified, so I decided to channel my energy into creating an incantation, using my skills to feel less powerless. This piece aims to be cathartic resistance and magical defiance against oppression. I used the only weapon that I have, my creativity, as a tool to denounce horrific realities and, hopefully, inspire other creators to use art for activism to contribute to change. Please note: The protest sound at the end has been recorded in Minneapolis, used courtesy of stevevader101 -- https://freesound.org/s/841767/ -- License: Attribution 4.0 I'm an indigenous Sardinian from an island that pushed me to travel young (10 years in Germany, 20+ in Australia), then back home. Moving through cultures sparked my fascination with how memories shape places and how sound shapes memories and belonging. Working at national radio during the podcast boom let me experiment with immersive sound narratives. Now an independent producer, when I'm not playing the hustle game, I use my time collaborating with fellow creators worldwide, using audio to weave connections between people, places, and experiences. http://www.cristinamarras.com https://www.linkedin.com/in/cristinamarras https://www.instagram.com/addressapproximate MY PORTFOLIO https://www.canva.com/design/DAG8C0iwIu4/apRjKmGPkXcCNDmKaONAUg/view 3) Akari Komura - drops and a breeze Synopsis of piece: The work narrates the logs of a week-long diary individually documented by the performer, Natalia Merlano Gómez, and by myself as the composer in March 2024. The dual texture of voices and daily records amplifies the intimate, subtle, and personal observations of everyday life. Akari Komura (b.1996) is a composer-intermedia artist from Tokyo, Japan. Her works center around contemplative mode of listening and soundmaking. She is interested in calling attention to the everyday space and blurring the boundaries of individual/collective, life/art, and performer/audience relationships. Her works have been presented at the American Composers Orchestra EarShot Reading, Composers Conference, HEAR NOW Music Festival, and MATA Festival. She holds an M.M. in Composition from the University of Michigan and a B.A. in Vocal Arts from the University of California, Irvine. Akari is currently a Ph.D. composition student at the University of California San Diego. https://www.akarikomura.com/ https://www.instagram.com/sonichabitat/ 4) Christiane Prehn and Wolfgang Meyer – Gravefieldsounds In the last years, Kg Augenstern focused on energetic experimental art projects. The artists stayed in the island of Pantelleria (Italy) for two months in early 2024 and again in Winter 2025. Due to it's volcanic activity, Pantelleria is said to have strong electromagnetic fields. Kg Augenstern did a research at different places about this earthmagnetic power. With very sensitive sensors especially made for this purpose, they measured the electromagnetic radiation and the impact of art and rituals on it. On one of our first walks on the island, we passed along a place with four empty stone graves. We found out that they date back to around 700 a.d. when byzantine christians settled on the island. It is very likely that monks from the nearby monastery were buried here. Gravefield sounds is the recording of the sounds while measuring the magnetic field on this graves. Kg Augenstern Christiane Prehn and Wolfgang Meyer (Berlin) Kg Augenstern works in the field of audiovisuall/ audiokinetic installation, performance and video.

(3:00) 5) VIRID and David Minnix - Slow Images III. River Rocks I Slow Images, an experimental work for percussion, electronics and modular synthesizer, explores memory and sensations of texture through imagery. Each movement contains structured improvisations written in response to images with distinct characteristics. The photos were collected and compiled by the group and depict personal instances of fleeting encounters with striking environments. One finds that the longer they gaze at one of these photos, the more intrigue it offers, thus giving the record its sense of endless peculiarity. Based in Southeast Michigan, VIRID explores the space in between electronic music and classical percussion. Amorphous yet always compelling, the duo is committed to experimentation, incorporating a blend of songwriting, electroacoustic production, and improvisation into their unique sound worlds. David Minnix is a composer, performer, producer, and instrument designer based in Ann Arbor, Michigan. David has a passion for writing for and performing with the modular synthesizer, livecoding improvised music with Tidalcycles, and creating new musical instruments out of salvaged electronics. David's work combines electronic and acoustic improvisation and seeks to create organic textures from synthetic parts. https://www.instagram.com/virid.duo/ https://www.instagram.com/minnix_xinniw/ https://virid.bandcamp.com/album/slow-images 6) Oronnok Prithibi - Moss Beneath the Concrete A sound work that represents the moss beneath the concrete of our society. How the urbanization suppressed nature and the echo is still there beneath the ground. Oronnok Prithibi is a sound artist and film sound designer. https://www.instagram.com/oronnok.prithibi/ 7) Olivia McCannon / Glenn Keiles – Scroll 'Scroll' is a sound piece grown out of a poem from The Lives of Z (Pavilion Poetry 2025) and a collaboration produced by sound designer Glenn Keiles. I turned to sound to create after-lives for the poems, to keep them moving and retranslate their presence beyond the page. If a poem is owned by the cyclical, recycling energies of Earth, how might it decompose and transform? Each of these poems is speculatively imagined as an object or artefact unearthed from an environment in which humans are a toxic trace, a remixed memory or a misplaced presence. They respond to a need to imagine alternative ways of being, with and within the extractivist ruins of English, and the landscapes and lives it has shaped and devastated. This sound project-in-progress seeks to question the place of human authority and offer poems as polyphonic experiences, whose voices belong to complex human and more-than-human soundscapes. Olivia McCannon is a writer of poetry and fiction and an emerging sound artist.Glenn Keiles is an experienced composer and sound designer who has worked with the poet Tony Harrison, among many others. Instagram: Oliviamcc (occasional posts) 8) Isidora Kauak - Domestic Seánce Domestic Séance is a piece that forms part of the project Espíritus Domésticos, an artistic research project that addresses spiritualism in Chile from both a historical and contemporary perspective, emphasizing the domestic space as an essential site of mediation and communication with the invisible. Drawing on the study of spiritualist practices developed primarily in the nineteenth century, the project examines the home as a territory where the private and the public intertwine, and where women played a central role in activating these practices, generating spaces of autonomy, knowledge exchange, and forms of collective experimentation. The sound piece is composed around a mantra-like rhythm, integrating sounds of double bass and sitar, whispers, domestic sounds, archival recordings, and hidden messages embedded in the voices of deceased family members. Isidora Kauak Aguad is a Chilean visual artist and researcher, born in Santiago, Chile, in 1995. Her practice is situated at the intersection of contemporary art and theoretical research, with a particular emphasis on the study of Western Esotericism and its manifestations in contemporary artistic creation. http://www.isidorakauak.com 9) Night Wire - Housel Bay Night Wire is an ongoing project examining the hidden electromagnetic soundscapes of our world. Housel Bay is the first in a series of location-based pieces, recorded in Cornwall via conventional and software-defined radio, near the site of the first transatlantic wireless transmission. Early spiritualists and engineers alike considered radio a means to communicate with dimensions beyond our own. Cromwell Fleetwood Varley, one of the engineers responsible for the first Atlantic telegraph cables, thought it could be used to listen in to the conversations between angels. In the present day we are suffused by signals that help us navigate, keep our watches running, open doors for us and keep track of our devices. At Housel Bay sing wave data buoys, submarine communications, radar and digital data modes, while the lighthouse foghorn sounds from cliffs shrouded in cloud. There are plenty of ghosts to be heard. Emmy Lambert is a composer and sound artist focussed on textural, timbral and spatial explorations in sound. Her practice incorporates technical and cultural research, data sonification, field recording, acoustic and electronic instruments, collaboration and installation and considers themes of perspective, technology, humanity and the natural world. http://www.hothousediscord.com @hothousediscord 10) Jey Wang- 你在听吗 (Are You Listening?) This artwork explores encrypted testimony as a form of self-protection performed through everyday speech. Fragments of casual conversation between women appear light, yet certain phrases function as signals recognisable only to those with shared experience. Laughter operates as a public surface, allowing difficult material to circulate without direct exposure. The work shifts between synthetic voice, sparse dialogue fragments, and processed water textures. Two voices reading the same text in stereo operate as repetition rather than emphasis, acting instead as a form of verification. As the piece develops, layered water sounds expand into a masking field, gradually overwhelming intelligibility and destabilising meaning. The composition treats listening as a passage from private whisper to shared acoustic space. Voices do not seek visibility or confession; they move carefully within the public field, testing whether a listener exists who can recognise the signal without turning it into spectacle. Jey Wang is a London-based sound and multimedia artist and a graduate of the University of the Arts London. Working across recording, text and installation, her practice focuses on listening, emotional perception and the instability of everyday speech. Through fragmented audio and minimal structures, she explores how gendered experience, migration and belonging shape inner states and public communication. Neil Cargill - Rock Scree Drownt Neil Cargill - Rock Scree Drownt 14 September 2026 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm A fusion of the enormity of the voices of nature with the intimacy of radio drama. Marcail sees the Half-Way Rock as nothing more than a resting place on the Scottish coast until the sounds of the waves, wind and rain one day appear to her as voices, calls for help, final words long lost among the depths. But why her, why now? An answer comes only when Marcail finds herself precariously perched thousands of feet above an abyss on the Half-Way Rock’s mirror-image on the other side of the North Sea: the Kjeragbolten. This time, the phantom words come from the Draugr – spirits of those lost at sea, human forms with heads of seaweed, and suddenly the voices make sense. An audio deep dive into a previously unheard world - inspired by real events in the shade of North East Scotland's Half-Way Rock. Artist bio: Neil Cargill has created many innovative drama, feature and music programmes for BBC Radio and independently for online sharing, specialising in exploratory storytelling and immersive sound design. Described by Robin Rimbaud as "a sonic inferno", his audio drama "Akiha Den Den" featured the acclaimed electronic score by Simon James, while several of his radio collaborations with poet, humorist and harmonium wrangler Ivor Cutler continue to be broadcast regularly on Radio 4 Extra. Rock Scree Drownt forges a new Scottish-Nordic myth and features Sheila Reid, Kiran Sonia Sawar and Amina Ben Ismail with music by Tyler Lewis and Tyr Jami.

Destabilization Processes and Adaptation Losses (Vol. 2)” combines spoken word, electronic textures and rhythms, voice processing, and electroacoustic soundscapes. Similar to a guided tour, Julia Scher's voice serves as the fundamental element, leading the listener through various stations of a “theme park” where future, past, and present intertwine. In 23 thematic scenes, intricately interwoven, listeners encounter blended realities, commentaries from the future, documents from the past, and experimental live feeds of an extended present. Fictions, phantasms, speculations, and absurdities are included, as are references to central themes in Julia Scher's artistic practice within the visual arts. A dense, stimulating network of vocal sounds—sometimes linguistic, sometimes narrative, sometimes abstract—sonic drifting, and erratic grooves. Between ambient and noise, feedback loops, resynthesis, and coding. Symbolic orders and sorting algorithms. Or simply: Tomorrow will be like yesterday was like today.

This reflects the surface-level perception of nature. When we observe nature in a broad, macro, and cursory way, we tend to regard it as stable, static, and seemingly unaffected by subtle human actions. Up close: Subtle shifts at the bottom of the frame. When we magnify our perspective and look closely, we begin to notice delicate flows and hidden changes. Human attempts to reshape nature often bring about invisible impacts; even if we cannot easily perceive them, they are still unfolding. This piece is a composition by Eleanor Lee, from Irrigation01, a work by visual artist Yi Huang. The soundscape focuses on the smallest gestures and forms between soil and the human body. During a field study in Kemsing, Eleanor and Yi recorded the sounds of soil, fields, and the surrounding natural environment. Eleanor Lee is a composer, producer, singer-songwriter and sound artist based in London. Her practice moves fluidly across electronic music, indie, contemporary and instrumental music, electroacoustic and sound art. Grounded in research-based music, conceptual composition, sonic fiction, hauntology, and the idea of m usic as archive, her work explores the residues of emotion, the layered temporality of memory, and sensory experiences that traverse both the personal and the social.

Along the edge of Toronto Pearson airport, the Etobicoke creek runs through a naturalized area with a significant wildlife population; the area also contains several zones for airport operations and an industrial area. Employing in situ field recordings, the piece transitions from the sounds of the natural word into the increasingly invasive sonic artifacts of human life; at first somewhat benignly, then increasing in intensity. There is a strange crossover between the natural and human-made worlds, with wildlife, high noise levels, jet exhaust, and the equally invasive sound and odour from the industrial zone, intertwined; the natural world is preserved, but one wonders at what cost to the species that live (or could have lived) here. Daniel Ottini is a Canadian sound artist, field recordist, sound designer, and electronic musician whose work focuses on seeking deeper truths about human emotion and experience using sound as a medium of inquiry and expression. After a professional career of asking questions and an equal number of years as an electronic musician, his recorded works grew increasingly experimental, progressively incorporating field recordings and found sound. He expanded further into the realm of sound art, with multi-channel audio works. His current Sound Art practice utilizes documentary audio, field recordings, electronic textures, and spatial sound, to probe (and engage) the listener’s perspective https://www.instagram.com/danielottinimusic/ http://danielottinimusic.com/ ca.linkedin.com/in/danielottiniaudio 3) Spinning Voices - LOST SODDEN MEMORY In 2022, there was a catastrophic failure in an underground water main in my neighborhood. The pressurized water was sent shooting into the sewer system, getting forced into the surrounding homes. Dozens of homes had up to 2 feet of water in their basements and it led to millions of dollars in damage. But for me, the most damaging thing was the loss of several of my family's photo albums, many dating from before I was born and containing pictures of my deceased relatives. As the work of reconstructing my home began, I was surrounded with noise all day for several weeks. A few days in, I started recording the construction sounds emanating from my basement. Years later, in 2025, I worked them into this track. It sounds angry because it is. I am angry that we're living through a time when infrastructure makes us feel unsafe. Spinning Voices is the music of David Boeser, a resident of Minneapolis, Minnesota, in the United States. He has been making electronic music under this name since 2008, across the genres of chiptune, synthpop, ambient, noise, improvisational, and some just plain unclassifiable. https://www.spinningvoices.com https://spinningvoices.bandcamp.com https://bsky.app/profile/spinningvoices.com 4 Edoardo Pistolesi Somigli - CYrce (BurrasKa) A reimagining_action of the Odyssey, where the shattering of the universe blends with the harried swaying of the sea. Poseidon is a skilled soccer player..., Polyphemus is not a shepherd at all but a talented homeless man, Circe relentlessly continues her magic tricks, and Argos never went into hibernation.

Composed and produced at the Arts and Technology Lab of the Universidad Austral de Chile, the piece develops gradually through shifting rhythmic and textural layers, exploring how different sound materials can coexist and evolve within the same space, inviting focused listening rather than spectacle. Felipe Otondo is a Chilean composer and sound artist whose work centers on spatial audio and soundscapes. His music and installations have been presented internationally, and his research combines field recordings with new technologies. He is Associate Professor at the Universidad Austral de Chile and director of the Soundlapse project. http://www.otondo.net Radiophrenia Shorts 55B Radiophrenia Shorts 55B 14 September 2026 4:30 pm - 5:00 pm 6 Helga Luzhnikova - Pause for Noisewash (8:00) 7 GARTH ERASMUS - THE THIRTEENTH DIALECT (14:54) 8 Sophia Grubbs - creepie crawlie buggies (3:00) 6) Helga Luzhnikova - Pause for Noisewash This noise-ambient track cleans away everything unnecessary with sea waves and noises, leaving the space pure and ringing. The abstract loud sound mixture is like the feeling when you enter the water: for a moment it becomes scary, but another moment later you can see the underwater world and the little stones, and yet another moment later — you come up renewed and calm. The composition uses field recordings from shopping malls, fields with cows, Batumi waves, beach stones, and noise synthesizers. It can be listened to thoughtfully, immersing yourself, deep listening, meditation or in a state of cleansing. It can be played in the background at work for concentration and calmness. Helga Luzhnikova is a sound artist currently based in Tbilisi. Helga composes music and creates sound for indie-games and videoart. She seeks to organize chaos and notice the unnoticeable, operating at the intersection of magic and mathematics. Her artistic practice explores relationships between sound and states of the human psyche; dreams and wakefulness; everyday life and its micro-changes; music and action. Helga investigates how music can change people’s states, and how even sound can sometimes bring calmness and joy. She is most interested in order emerging from chaos, field recordings, found sounds, drone, ambient, noise, and other experimental genres. https://www.instagram.com/zvon.i.shelest/ https://soundcloud.com/luzhnikova 7) GARTH ERASMUS - THE THIRTEENTH DIALECT (14:54) South Africa is unique in the sense that it has 12 official languages (including sign language). This came about in the post-Apartheid excitement of building a new, open and free society. But in so doing, did a great disservice to the indigenous people of SA known as the KhoiSan whose language, Nama, was purposefully ignored and never conferred an "official" status. This was a strategic political move on the part of the government - if they do not acknowledge the existence of a First Nation then they do not have to honour the UN Charter on Indigenous People, to which the Govt is a signatory. As an indigenous artist and activist this audio piece was conceived to honour the struggle of my people for First Nation rights. It is a collage of my field recordings over the last years and follows my own journey of self-discovery through language and music. Garth Erasmus is a South African visual artist and musician whose work focuses on the indigenous people, the KhoiSan, which is his heritage. Garth is part of the indigenous activist music and poetry group, Khoi Khonnexion, who toured European music theatre festivals in 2018-19 with the musical theatre production House of Falling Bones on the Namibian genocide of the Nama and Herero people by the German colonialists. He is also part of the local free-improvisation community of musicians in Cape Town. In 2020 Garth initiated the Africa Open Improvising collective at Stellenbosch University`s Africa Open Institute (AOI). https://soundcloud.com/garth-erasmus https://asai.co.za/artist/garth-erasmus/ https://soundcloud.com/user-610733588 https://www.instagram.com/gartherasmus/?hl=en 8) Sophia Grubbs - creepie crawlie buggies The vision for this piece was to create a sci-fi forest soundscape by imitating birdsong, crickets chirping, and other sounds from nature with electronically produced material. Sophia Grubbs (they/them) is a senior at Ohio University pursuing a Bachelor of Arts in Geography. Their major is titled "Sustainable Regional and Urban Planning" and they are also pursuing a music minor. Sandy Sigala & Joe Coghill - A Dragon with Iron Legs (live in the studio) Sandy Sigala & Joe Coghill - A Dragon with Iron Legs (live in the studio) 14 September 2026 5:00 pm - 5:30 pm In 1885, a steam train passed through the city for the first time. For the children of the Elefsina, the locomotive was a dragon with iron legs. A preserved testimony from the day recalls: ‘…when we saw it coming, it was as if an earthquake had happened. And when it let out a whistle, we all clung to the teacher’s trousers. It was a black beast. With big glass eyes. It released black smoke from its head and white smoke from its nostrils and its mouth… it seemed to us that it was rabid and wanted to bite us, to eat us all.’ Elefsina is a site of both ancient and industrial significance. The city was the endpoint of the Sacred Way, a ritual procession walked from Athens by initiates of the Eleusinian Mysteries. Then came the factories, the oil refinery, the shipbreaking yard; industry building itself on top of the antiquities. The railway was part of this wave, the dragon that carried modernity into sacred ground. Then industry, too, withdrew. The railway fell silent in 2001. DIY gardens appeared along the abandoned track and ruderal plants pushed through the ballast. Ancient stone surfaced beside corroding metal. The site was reclaimed as a space of resistance the tracks an assemblage of temporalities, multispecies entanglements, and creative possibility. In January 2026, we discovered that the cycle had turned again. The gardens are gone, the plants removed and the ground has been cleared, ready for redevelopment. The dragon returned with new iron legs. A Dragon with Iron Legs is a 35-minute immersive sonic collage designed for live radio broadcast combining site-specific field recordings from Elefsina, Greece (binaural, stereo, mono; hi-fi and lo-fi; digital and analogue), excavated sound fragments from various archival sources, and live electroacoustic performance using found objects (from the site and elsewhere), voice, lo-fi electronics, real-time digital signal processing, sampling, and spatial mixing. The sonic range moves between ambient binaural drifts and gentle aleatoric musings, through to harsh industrial interventions, sharp punctuations of activity, and juxtaposed sound clashes- shaped through dynamic interplay between both artists and the site itself, with Elefsina treated not as backdrop but as a third voice. Past and present build and collapse into a single unrepeatable broadcast. Framework: The Improvisation as Intervention The work is grounded in Sandy Sigala’s practice-based PhD research at Edinburgh College of Art, The Politics and Poiesis of Wastelands. The practice-based research explores the spatial and social legacies of wasted post-industrial landscapes across Europe. Using art-led inquiry Sandy investigates civic memory and contentious land narratives to critique contemporary debates about how value is produced, materialised (or not) in urban spaces. The piece explores repeating cycles of construction, ruin, and reclamation along the Elefsina railway line, using the train track as a lens through which to encounter the wider landscape of the city. A place where ancient sacred ruins, industrial pollution, community gardens, and ruderal ecologies occupy the same contested ground. Our live improvisation mirrors the way humans have intervened in this landscape across every era, sometimes in harmony, sometimes in discord. The piece draws on two years of field recordings collected across multiple visits to the railway line and its surrounding terrain. Each sonic gesture is an act of construction or erosion on material that was already there. The question the performance poses is the same question the site poses: what does it mean to add another layer to a landscape that has been built, ruined, reclaimed, and erased in turn? Artist bios: Sandy Sigala (she/they) is research-led artist and educator based between Glasgow and Athens.

Her practice at large investigates the complexity of the bind between the voice and body - of how voice can traverse internal and external realities of both the sounder and listener and how it can research various qualities of embodiment, both pleasurable and disorienting. Within this she often explores performative techniques that dis/reorient the listening relationship between the singer and their audience through live uses of defamiliarised, mesmeric and repetitive vocalisation. This investigation also extends into expanded installations that include large-scale textiles and sounding metal sculptures. In these installations, such forms create integrated listening architectures that shape how voice resonates through space, inviting audiences to encounter sound not only as performance but as a material, sensorial and spatial experience. Cara is currently finishing a PhD in Critical Sonic Practice at Konstfack, Stockholm titled ‘Internal Singing - Sounding Through Vocalbody Disorientation’. She collaborates regularly with Rian Treanor, Stine Janvin, Susanna Marcus Jablonski, Em Silén and Julia Giertz. https://www.instagram.com/cara.tolmie vixnde - Derivations of the Insula - or, I came here to isolate, solace found me. vixnde - Derivations of the Insula - or, I came here to isolate, solace found me. 14 September 2026 6:30 pm - 7:00 pm insula (n.) Latin, literally "an island" (also, in ancient Rome, "a block of buildings"); see isle. In anatomical use, the notion is "detached or standing out by itself." (etymonline.com). In June 2026, artist Viana Afoumou (vixnde) was sent to Scotland by Rotterdam-based Radio WORM to spend a week in Cove Park and to make a radio piece for Radiophrenia. Upon arrival, she disconnected her pink phone line (see bio), leaving her audience with an online voicemail box and the question: How do you isolate yourself in a hyper-connected society? Fascinated in her youth by the tales of isolated adventurers, such as “The Consolations of the Forest” (Sylvain Tesson), “Into the Wild” (John Krakauer/Sean Penn), “The Call of the Wild” (Jack London), or “Walden, or life in the woods” (Henry David Thoreau), she came to Cove Park with a fantasy: Exploring new depths within herself through isolation, detached from the rest of the world, so to say “lost” in nature. Yet, she realised soon enough she would not be alone there. Not only was she sharing the space with other artists: Writer and producer Kate Bowen, visual artists Omid Asadi and Elham Rafiei, Roy Boswell, Maeva Totolehibe, Hormi Chen, artist and photographer Kate Bellanger and artist Caroline Galderisi. She also met all sorts of other residents among the different animal, vegetal, and organic species inhabiting the area. What does it mean to “isolate”, when being a part of, and surrounded by, ecosystems? “Life is a mystery. Everyone must stand alone. I hear you call my name! And it feels like…” (Madonna, Like a Prayer). Is this what solace feels like? Bio: Having been told since a teenager that her voice could sooth a stallion in heat, vixnde decided to take her talents seriously and to use them for the common good. In “Le Téléphone Rose”, your calls and voice messages (0909 - 7777 777, €0,15/minute) become an integral part of the radio show – streamed on Radio WORM and Operator Radio, two Rotterdam-based radio stations. Le Téléphone Rose is also a research project, questioning how we connect to each other in the midst of social media, and the (taboo) role of sex work in this search for connection. vixnde: pronounced viande [vjɑ̃d], meaning “meat” in French is the product of a lifetime by Brussels-born singer-songwriter Viana Afoumou. This neologism and analogy crystallises the discrepancies she experiences as a female artist; having realized that, to be a part of the music industry, she would have to brand, package and sell herself, all-the-while staying “authentic” and presenting original work. She decided to play with these contradictions, by becoming her own product. Her genre, Raw Pop, is a wink to the extreme categorisation of music, a pun to raw meat, and a reference to her sound. “Suddenly, I was surrounded by horses. I sat by the water to refresh my feet, then I laid down and I closed my eyes. After a few minutes, one of them came by and sniffed my nose. I was a bit scared but I stayed still. The horse was whispering a song”. - vixnde https://vixnde-com.l.ink/ https://www.instagram.com/vixnde/ Melanie Clifford and Matt Davies - Sluice Light / Sluice Sound: Songs between waters, between tides Melanie Clifford and Matt Davies - Sluice Light / Sluice Sound: Songs between waters, between tides 14 September 2026 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm Four tunnels reach beneath Underfall Yard, linking Bristol’s Floating Harbour to the tidal River Avon. Below the brick Sluice House they meet the massive iron gates which are raised and lowered to protect the harbour from flooding and drain silt. Sluice activation induces currents that swirl, agitate and animate the water within.The motor-driven machinery is reaching the end of its working life and will soon be replaced. Melanie & Matt have been taking time there, recording, playing back and re-recording the old sluices’ poundings and groans: yielding resonant frequencies that fluctuate as the water held in the chambers rises and falls. These songs, collected raw and in situ, can be listened to in this broadcast. Underfall Yard Sluices are 4 underwater culverts, chambers and gates constructed in the 1830s. They work to maintain water and silt levels in the Floating Harbour within the city of Bristol Never before heard outside the Sluice House at Underfall Yard! Artist bios: Melanie Clifford works in translation between moving image, sound, drawing, broadcast, material and site, soliciting sensitivity to detail, to minor fluctuations and structural disintegrity. Matt Davies works with the act of listening, live performance and the exploration of chance-based composition via the prism of 16mm experimental cinema. They are active members of Bristol Experimental & Expanded Film and have collaborated on expanded cinema projects and radio broadcasts since 2017..

Originally broadcast by ORF Ö1 Kunstradio, the avant-garde composition won a Bronze Trophy in the Sound Art category at the New York Festivals International Radio Program Awards. The work explores the unique, haunting acoustics and atmospheric sounds of a tunnel near the picturesque Dubovica beach on the Island of Hvar, Croatia. Rather than utilizing a traditional linear narrative, Jovanović focuses entirely on psychoacoustic immersion. The piece captures the resonance of natural and human-made sounds echoing through the enclosed, cavernous space to evoke a surreal, dreamlike atmosphere for the listener. https://www.kunstradio.at/2014A/04_05_14.html RIELES Y RUIDO (rails and noise) by matias, natalia y memo RIELES Y RUIDO (rails and noise) by matias, natalia y memo 14 September 2026 9:00 pm - 9:45 pm Rails and Noise is a site-specific work that took place on 6 November 2025, alongside the railway line in northern Paris. The performance and recording were carried out without breaks; only the editing and mixing of the tracks recorded simultaneously were permitted. Participants included Matias Reyes, Natalia Rivera-Riffo, and Memo Dumay. Three artists of Chilean origin based in Paris. The work is unpublished; it was created for Radio Tsonami (Valparaiso, Chile) but was ultimately not broadcast. Our raw material is the rails and trains that criss-cross the territory, evoking an object on a planetary scale. The noises and sounds of the neighbourhood intertwine with electromagnetic waves captured by synthesisers and sound distorters, giving rise to a ramified proposal: the creaking of mechanical gears, the cadence of trains and fragments of noise form an acoustic topography in motion. Artist bios: Juan Guillermo Dumay (Memo Dumay, Viridianos, el gran chufle), born in 1975 in Santiago, Chile, plays guitar in Panico, DIY band which draws on art rock and post-punk, also explores cumbia and noise genres. As Memo Dumay he creates site-specific works using different materials, such as multi-channel pieces and kaleidoscopic improvisations combining amplified sounds and raw noises. Natalia Rivera Riffo (born in Valdivia, Chile, Juillet 1982) is a multidisciplinary contemporary artist: sound arts, visual Artist and sculpture. Matias Reyes is dj a sound artist. The three artists are based in Paris, France.

She walks along the bends, drawn to the lights, yet still alien to the place she finds herself in. She will undergo a process of metamorphosis, a transformation that dissolves the boundaries between psychic theatre and tangible reality. Baile Átha Cliath is the Gaelic name for Dublin. In English, it means city of the ford with obstacles: a liminal zone of indecision and passage, in which the protagonist wanders uncertainly. la città, le stanze is based on a short story by Alessandra Marrucci. It seeks to explore its sudden images and its darker sides, bringing to the foreground the overlap between realism and imagination. la città, le stanze (Baile Átha Cliath) by Mattia Benedetti / words by Alessandra Marrucci. Artist bio: Mattia Benedetti creates acousmatic music, pieces for instrument and live electronics and A/V compositions. He’s interested in quietness, algorithmic and aleatoric techniques and the relationship between sound and words. His pieces have been presented in Europe, North and South America and Asia.

External gear like no input mixers, effect pedals, radios etc can be heard throughout. Our intention was to have a stream of consciousness structure to implement the sounds we recorded and utilised in this piece, which makes for a disorienting, dreamlike effect. The use of abstract, unrelated sounds collaged together is a process we were interested in for some time, since we were influenced by musique concrete composers such as Lionel Marchetti and Jérôme Noetinger. We hoped to create a piece that felt cohesive and dynamic enough through its individual sections - segues were put in throughout longer sections in order to convey this idea. Source material from Robert Maycock was used in this piece - eternal gratitude. Stockport Swimming Team is a multi genre collage project from Glasgow, UK. Since 2021 he has amassed a series of releases on labels such as Retrac Recordings and rotten//trash, alongside his own label Welcome to Clydebank, which has been promoting experimental and noise music since 2020. Not much is known about Audrey Delisle, but she has been quietly dropping intricate glitch/computer pieces under a series of different aliases - more releases are in the pipeline....

The project documents, processes, and reframes these sounds into a new compositional structure. Like the marly limestone that defines the city’s historic architecture and the nearby Calvana mountains—marked by veins of varying color and density—Prato reveals layers of historical, social, urban, ethnographic, and morphological intersections. These crossings leave resonant traces and shared heritage with strong timbral identities. The sound research combined documentary field recordings with experimental techniques, activating materials, surfaces, mechanical objects, and vibrating bodies to explore their timbral potential and engage them in dialogue with their environment. Selected for their distinctive spectral and symbolic qualities, certain sounds articulate the composition’s structure, shaping a renewed soundscape that is both recognizable and imaginative. Commissioned by Tempo Reale Firenze. Nicola Cappelletti (ITA/FRA) is an electroacoustic sound artist, performer, and composer. His research explores the relationship between acoustic sound and electronic processing across contemporary arts, including dance, visual arts, theater, and poetry. As a performer, he moves between popular music, rock, club contexts, and radical improvisation with prepared instruments, concrete sounds, and electronics. His works have been presented at major international festivals and conferences such as ICMC, Ars Electronica, NYCEMF, and the Seoul International Computer Music Festival. He is a member of the Opificio Sonoro ensemble, founded by Marco Momi, and teaches Electroacoustic Composition at the Conservatory of Cuneo, Italy. https://www.nicolacappelletti.com/ https://www.instagram.com/nikcplt/ https://www.facebook.com/nicola.cappelletti Radiophrenia Shorts 42B Radiophrenia Shorts 42B 14 September 2026 10:30 pm - 11:00 pm 1 Liactuallee - unripe, adolescent, tart, and sour (13:56) 2 Cornil - Urgency to slowdown (7:15) 3 jonesy jones - woolf worldings - tree eeko (00:36) 1) Liactuallee - unripe, adolescent, tart, and sour Unripe, adolescent, tart, and sour is a spoken-word audio piece written and recorded alongside the production of a soft sculpture, Plucked from Flesh. Composed during a residency in Germany, the work takes the form of a vulnerable personal essay by a textile artist, recorded from beneath a blanket. The narration moves between reflections on craft labour and the lived textures of adolescence, approached as a sensory and temporal state rather than a linear memory. Voice and making remain closely entangled: breath, hesitation, and repetition shape the rhythm of the piece. Resisting productivity-driven expectations of clarity or speed, the audio dwells in moments of awkwardness, tenderness, and uncertainty. It offers listening as an intimate encounter, where slowness becomes a way of staying with discomfort and incompleteness, and where the act of making opens space for reflection, softness, and unresolved becoming. I am a visual artist working with sculpture and installation through textile and craft-based practices. I live and work in Mumbai, India. Making art is an act of survival for me. The fragility of identity labels has led me to embrace transience and create worlds where my amorphous self can exist without negotiation. I weave ecological fiction, speculative characters, and fluid landscapes to propose alternative realities shaped by overlooked ecosystems. Through repetitive gestures—loops, stitches, marks—I build evolving environments through re-articulation. Grounded in hope, my practice values natural resources, human labour, care, endurance, and survival, articulated through my ongoing Stitchpunk Manifesto. https://www.liactuallee.com/ https://www.instagram.com/liactuallee/?hl=en 2) Cornil - Urgency to slowdown This was an experiment to reconnect with animistic practice that have been forgotten. Recorded on acid trip, this performance cast a spell on speed and urge the listener to slow down, on an unconscious level. Based in Brussels, Jérémy Bocquet is a sound artist whose practice revolves around fostering dialogues between sound and space, deeply engaging in the nuances of auditory perception. His work intrica- tely blends poetic and philosophical dimensions of sound experience. His versatile approach extends to sound collages that merge field recordings, musical fragments, and workshop traces, creating auditory paintings that evoke subconscious reactions. Within the collective Ambient Lay Down and several workshops, he has developed a distinctive approach to spatial sound synthesis using modular synthesizers, crafting soundscapes through spatialization at audio rate. https://cornilmusic.bandcamp.com/ https://soundcloud.com/cornilmusic 3) jonesy jones - woolf worldings - tree eeko old memory hits a ghost artery sparking a l c h e m y This is the first dive in to the instinctive otherness of the expansive worldings of sounds.

Starting like many with a domestic tape recorder; years finger poised on the pause button; tunnelling into the present & falling into deep concentration; in a trance of coloured sound trials; impromptu expressions processed & filtered into moments of congealed sound; also using field recording, in voxpop & audio voyeurism, spoken word & singing. Feeling the next transition is about to happen; building deep relationships with that aesthetic; this interaction shows itself in within all his works.

Each transmission develops through Spectral Assemblage, where fragments of everyday life gather in stochastic accumulators of latent potential, forming temporary constellations of association and alignment. These fluid states of indeterminism generate unexpected configurations, Denkinstruments enabling alternative modes of thought and meaning. Before transmission, assemblages are collapsed or fixed. Broken symmetries crystallize into temporal moments. Fluidity is sacrificed to enable closer inspection of the encoded relations and emergent entanglements.

Savant Flaneur - Psst! 15 September 2026 1:00 am - 5:00 am “Psst!” is a four hour fluxus choir of over 1000 individually recorded voices. During a 2025 installation at Nuit Blanche, Winnipeg, Savant Flaneur set up two large surrealist ears and people spoke, screamed, whispered, confessed, into the ears. Using Maxmsp, Savant Flaneur recorded each voice, slowed it down and pitch corrected, placed it into 8 voice banks, which slowly recorded over themselves throughout the evening. This resultant recording is the documentation of the evening. Hard auto-tuned avant-garde Gregorian chant. Each voice’s confession made beautiful and rectified through the communal experience of the choir. Artist bio: Oft referred to as “chamber punk,” Savant Flaneur expels the dichotomy between western art music and colloquial music scenes. Savant Flaneur is the idle virtuosi, ambivalent wunderkind, aimless and gifted. Savant Flaneur is an experimental music collective working on Treaty 1 Territory.

The sounds of an awakening bustle of a family amidst bird calls, along with announcements from far in the middle of the village circle by the village head, can be heard. This recording was made during a ten-day visit to the village in 2010. The Krahô are an indigenous Timbira Gê people from north-eastern Brazil. I started the recording around 5 in the morning, lying in my hammock hosted by one of the Krahô families. Artist bio: Thomas Rohrer (CH/BR) studied the saxophone in Lucerne before moving to São Paulo in 1995. There, he discovered the rabeca, a traditional Brazilian fiddle which has become central to his musical practice. Through his projects, he explores the sonic potential of his instruments, primarily through improvisation. The CD Tradição Improvisada documents his long collaboration with Nelson da Rabeca, a self-taught musician and former sugarcane cutter, and his wife Benedita. Since 2021, he has been based in Poschiavo, Switzerland. His artistic practice also includes field recording and listening installations. He has often collaborated with dance, theatre, and film.

Instagram beejaytrix 3) Dianne Ballon-South Freeport Boat Landing-Boats Rocking Although I have a windscreen for the microphone which works most of the time, the wind is my nemesis. And yet, I need the wind to rock the boats. Each harbor has its own distinct sound. Rocked by the motion of water, the pull of the tide, and a variable touch of wind, the boats create a mesmerizing series of sounds. The sounds are introspective: both sharp and smooth, quiet and busy, rhythmic yet random and, to me, achingly beautiful. Maine sound artist Dianne Ballon received a Maine Artist Fellowship and an Artist-in-Residency at Shenandoah National Park. Her sound works have aired on National Public Radio. Her “Boats Creaking at a Dock in Iceland” was awarded at an international radio art competition. “Lost and Found: Sounds of the Maine Coast by Dianne Ballon,” at the Maine Maritime Museum, featured her field recordings of harbors, boatyards, sounding buoys, historical bells, whistles and early foghorns. At the National Audio Theatre, she produced radio theatre. For museums, she produced audio accessible to the blind. She teaches audio through Maine College of Art. https://www.dianneballonsound.com https://www.dianneballonsound.com/soundwork/lost_and_found_sounds_of_the_maine_coast_by_dianne_ballon/ 4) damarin - sonnet of sibilance A sonorous poem exploring the corporeality of consonants, sibilants and hisses through the letter S, an exploration of serpentine synths, slithering sounds, salacious souls, softness and loss.. Based in Bucharest, I am a student of the radio drama. I also release music under the same moniker. I am preoccupied with storyworlds, especially transmedial tales that extend over various forms of media (like Orson Welles' Harry Lime). One day, visiting Glasgow with a lover I became enamored with the city and its many twists and turns and narrow passes. I remember this upward passage squeezed between two buildings, two pigeons intertwined on the heights, over our shadows. The city has remained close to me since then. https://www.instagram.com/damarin1917 5) Sandra Nohemi Rangel - No preguntaron In "No preguntaron" I explored the modification of the semi-rural landscape on the outskirts of the city where I live with the arrival of luxury real state companies that perpetuate dishonest practices regardless of the environmental changes they cause in the native flora and fauna of the place; as well as the adaptation of local residents to forced urbanization. Sandra Nohemi Rangel(1995) A Mexican audiovisual artist and archivist whose practice lies at the intersection of contemporary video, sound experimentation and critical documentation. Her work explores memory, the body and nature through the use of archives, sound, code and moving images. In her artistic practice, she seeks to develop ongoing dialogues with digital environments, conceptualizing documentation as a space of resistance and personal and collective reconstruction, questioning the permanence of sound and visual records. https://www.instagram.com/comprimidopurpura/ https://soundcloud.com/comprimidopurpura Radiophrenia Shorts 11B Radiophrenia Shorts 11B 15 September 2026 8:30 am - 9:00 am 1 Fulya Uçanok - Nearby the Blackbird (6:45) 2 Benoît Déchaut - ITC Experiment (10:52) 3 Kamikaze - Gracia de dios (2:14) 4 Tumelo - Track of the Unknown (5:03) 1) Fulya Uçanok - Nearby the Blackbird Nearby the Blackbird (2025) This work grew from a curiosity to travel sonically alongside blackbirds, created from early morning field recordings in Graz, Austria, during a 2024 research residency. The title draws on documentary filmmaker and feminist theorist Trinh Minh-ha’s concept of “speaking nearby,” which embraces a mode of relationality that listens and responds, not by speaking about the other, but by sounding with them in sonic proximity.

I'm in the middle of France in an old water mill. Peoples there, ear some weirds sounds and voices. I pass two weeks here and after few days, i ear also some voices or i feel like a car arrive like a loop. I set up an experimental sound for trap this voices. I use the technicals of the instrumental transcommunication with 6 FM radio, a FM transmitter, a Revox B77, a mixer, 2 speakers, stereo microphone, a pick up coil microphone, some pedals effects and a dynamic microphone. The white noise of FM radio mix with the water and the sounds send back to FM Radio. It's big feedback loop. We will ear...

Its emotional development is gentle and contained, guiding the listener toward a sense of peace and contemplative awareness. Even when we cannot feel the love of Go, the absence is not real; in trying to fill our inner emptiness elsewhere, we unknowingly distance ourselves from what has always been there.

With a strong foundation in critical listening and semiotic analysis, she approaches sound not merely as a technical phenomenon, but as an energetic force capable of transforming space and experience. https://soundcloud.com/minor_aranza Instagram: aranpilla 4) Tumelo - Track of the Unknown The bus has left; you're inside, and your seat is warm. You watch as others laugh inside. Tilt your head and you notice the grey clouds looming outside. The bus coughs up smoke, and you get lost in the haze of the interior. You have somewhere to go so you're just going to have to take it. Even if it kills you. Tumelo Sedibe is a transdisciplinary artist that works with the curious and strange. Invested in co-creation, Tumelo currently spends time as an art student, learning from peers and assisting seminars, all while working at the Wits Art Museum part-time. Sound is a recent addition to their artistic research, elevating the work in differing and felt manners. Born in Nelspruit, Tumelo challenges categorisation at the core of their work with group exhibitions at The Point of Order, the Link Gallery at the University of Pretoria and was commissioned for a mural at Engage’s Men’s Health clinic, Braamfontein, while developing their practice. https://www.instagram.com/queen.sedibe/ Lasuemo - Sonic Trilogy Lasuemo - Sonic Trilogy 15 September 2026 9:00 am - 9:30 am Sonic Trilogy brings together sounds recorded at different times of the day by Lasuemo artists based in diverse locations from their respective environments. The three soundscapes presented here were produced over the twelve months of 2024 – splitting the year into three seasons, each season focussed on a time of the day. Season 1 is the start of the day, recorded and edited over the months January to April, Season 2, from May to August, captured the middle of the day and Season 3 gathers audio from the end of the day, recorded and edited from September to December. The texts for this publication tell about the sounds recorded by the artists for each season. Scan the codes to listen while you read. Artist bio: Lasuemo is an informal meeting place on the last Sunday every month in the digital courtyard, gathering since 2020.

This piece is layered upon an unedited single mobile phone recording walking through the tunnel on the 20th November 2025. On the 9th of January 2026 I returned to the tunnel with a Leica BLK360 G2 3D Laser scanner, a Soundfield NT-SF1 ambisonic microphone, a Lom Geofon contact microphone and a pair of JRF D-Series+ hydrophones to capture the many layers of sound and experience within the tunnel: thundering water, drips on the balustrade, the natural resonance of the stone and water and the mysterious conversations in the depth of shifting patterns of noise. There are no audio effects added to this piece only fading between the various microphone recordings. Artist bio: Andrew J Brooks is an artist, musician and architect whose work centres on stories, people and lived experience. He works across varied media, with solo and collaborative musical releases with Three Field Lines, AAC Trio and Amateur Cult, focusing on saxophone performance and field recordings.

An setup consisting of microphones and horn speakers carressing the treshold of acoústic feedback, revealing the architecture of these spaces, sketching their outlines and amplifying their voice. Artist bio: Amber Meulenijzer investigates the relation between space and sound, using various means like field recording, horn speakers, various synthesizers and sometimes an old Saab 900. Her work always seeks to connect with the context in which it is developed or displayed, interacting with architectural elements and environmental sounds or dynamics, finding the resonant frequencies of different landscapes. She researches moving sound sources in her work Saab Sculptures, a travelling sound system interacting with its surroundings, and works on different installation and performance formats. Looking for the composition in each space, she is inherently an in situ improvisor.

Comment raconter avec des sons naturels, des sons de lieux (proches, lointains), des sons quotidiens, des sons et des voix familières. Et comment faire intervenir le piano en contrepoint, non seulement l’instrument et la musique qu’il peut produire, mais aussi en tant objet sonore source de sons insolites et d’un point de vue narratif, le piano comme présence, comme identification ? Et enfin, comment le son de l’instrument peut se fondre dans le paysage? La voix parlée, à peine audible au milieu des activités domestiques quotidiennes, est une vague présence dans le paysage sonore qu’elle accompagne, paysages sonores d’ici et d’ailleurs. C’est avec tous ces éléments que j’essaie de traduire un monde sonore intime, qui est celui de ma mémoire et de mes rêves. Les sons qui composent la pièce sont, par la plupart, des paysages sonores des intérieurs et des extérieurs; les premiers décrivent une réalité quotidienne revisité (les sons enregistrés il y a longtemps dans la maison familiale), les sons des extérieurs proviennent de ma sonothèque personnelle où j’ai rassemblé une multitude d’ambiances de divers pays. Quant aux sons du piano il y a d’une part. des improvisations avec divers modes de jeu que j’ai enregistré en studio, et d’autre part des sons des piano « en situation », jouées par les passants dans les gares parisiennes, sur les instruments mis à disposition. Dans la pièce, le caractère « anecdotique » des sons est maintenu, la source est reconnaissable et les transformations légères. Cet itinéraire, à travers de sons du réel et des sons du rêve, est une invitation à se laisser porter par l’écoute.

The catalogue is made up of several dozen sound recordings featuring squeaky, creaking, screeching or otherwise noisy swing sets. The reasons for swing noise are various – loose connections or fasteners, aging of the materials used in the construction of the swing, weather conditions affecting them, as well as the load and overload to which the swing is subjected. Although most of the recordings feature swings that only minimally differ in terms of mechanics, construction and materials used, their noise is never identical, providing a sound testimony to the environment in which the swing is placed. Swinging, photos – Ada Ruszkiewicz; Idea, recording, editing and mixing – Ernests Vilsons. Artist bio: Ernests Vilsons is a Latvian composer living in Rīga. He writes music for acoustic instruments and electronic means, creates sound installations and performances, and collects field recordings. He is interested in harmony, time, silence, chance, representation and transcription. E. Vilsons studied at the Institute of Sonology at the Royal Conservatoire in The Hague. His master's research project “Well-Structured Vocalizations: An Attempt To Imitate Birdsong” was awarded the Konrad Boehmer Foundation Prize in 2020.

It enters carrying the residue of earlier anthrophonic listenings before joining the pilgrimage at Chotila, where more than thirty thousand people move together across a thousand stone steps. Rather than documenting the climb, the piece listens for the moment a multitude begins to sound as one: when breath, footsteps, chants, waiting, negotiation, complaint, devotion, bells, and silence reorganize into a shared field of human presence. Near the end, the listening turns toward a newborn carried through the ascent before leaving with the mountain's quiet polyphonies—silences still resonating with those who have just passed through them. अथक (Athak): Transdisciplinary Entries into Anthrophony A sonic research project across mixtapes, radio works, situated listening, live transmissions, performance, zines, meditative forms, and interpersonal acoustic encounters. Athak is an ongoing transdisciplinary exploration of anthrophony- the sound of human presence- as a site of exhaustion, devotion, rupture, complaint, negotiation, care, and renewal. The project approaches anthrophony not simply as environmental sound or human-made noise, but as a relational and bodily condition: the collective hum of proximity, friction, waiting, fatigue, ritual, and co-existence. It asks how human beings acoustically inhabit thresholds of depletion and invigoration, and what forms of listening emerge when exhaustion itself becomes shared. One recurring site of inquiry is a Chamunda temple pilgrimage in Chotila, Saurashtra, Gujarat, where thousands of pilgrims ascend over a thousand steep steps toward the deity. The climb unfolds as an evolving sonic field: interrupted breath, chants, coughs, devotional cries, negotiations, footsteps, metallic frictions, pauses, murmurs, complaint, silence, anticipation. Human sound accumulates as density. Across this site, Athak listens for acoustic triggers and thresholds, moments in which bodily exhaustion reorganises into participation, attention, and renewed presence. By the time many pilgrims arrive, they appear depleted, dissociated, irritated, or physically strained. Yet, as the temple doors open and the aarti begins, a subtle but undeniable shift passes through the gathering. Breath changes tempo. Posture alters. Fatigue briefly reorganises itself into rhythm, movement, devotion, and collective attention. Athak dwells within this unstable transition. What does collective human exhaustion sound like before the body reorganises itself? Is invigoration innate, or does it emerge relationally, from ritual, proximity, sonic density, waiting, devotion, and the difficult labour of being with one another? Working through field recordings, fragmented narrative, live acoustic interventions, radio dramaturgy, responsive performance, and situated listening, the project develops an evolving anatomy of sonic sites: their pacifiers, neutralisers, hums, frictions, avoidances, emotional residues, and architectures of exit. Its structure remains intentionally disoriented. Encounters interrupt one another. Memory folds into atmosphere. Breathlessness becomes rhythm; rhythm becomes form. Listening is approached not as extraction, but as relation. Rather than seeking to stabilise or control anthrophony, Athak attempts to earnestly, relentlessly remain with it, to sit beside its excesses, mistranslations, ruptures, fragile forms of reconciliation, and sonic booms.

Biography Pratyush Pushkar / ba is a transdisciplinary artist, poet, and researcher building a poetics of attention rooted in listening, gesture, ecological intimacy, and metaphysical longing. Working across sound, language, translation, image, food, and participatory forms, their practice traces hidden continuities between beings, atmospheres, and states of relation. Through immersive, research-led methodologies, ba constructs spaces for alternative sensing—where vulnerability, slowness, and collective attunement become ways of knowing. Their recent work turns toward the poetics of anthrophony- the layered, often overlooked textures of collective human sound-approaching listening as a site of reconciliation, memory, and social imagination. Situated between sonic inquiry, poetic practice, and ecological attention, ba’s works have travelled internationally across exhibitions, radio, residencies, and commissions. http://www.studiobalone.com Victoria Maréchal - Through the echoes Victoria Maréchal - Through the echoes 15 September 2026 12:40 pm - 1:00 pm A few years ago, a friend told me that Frontex used a heartbeat detector to locate people migrating to Europe across the Mediterranean in order to prevent them from reaching European shores. This deeply shocked me. How had we come to listen to a human heart at sea in order to take a life away? Thinking about these crossings from Africa to Europe, where people risk their lives daily for a better future, I explored Google Earth and was struck by the absence of images of the African continent. These missing images echoed the media portrayal of “migrants” as a nameless mass. I began searching for sound archives to imagine these places and journeys. I then met four people who migrated from Africa to Europe and who describe the routes and places they cherish, past and present.

She sings, improvises (voice, objects), and leads music workshops for diverse audiences. https://jessydulheuerbliah.bandcamp.com/ 4) Matteo Zoppi and Tommaso Cappelletti - This Goes Against Our Community Standards A performance for two voices within a system of control. The stage is empty. Two performers move through a choreography of microphones, cables, and stands. No fixed roles. The desire to control – and the unspoken desire to be controlled – shapes how we navigate digital space, where platform guidelines quietly govern visibility, speech, behavior. Control is equated with containment. To be controlled can mean safety, legibility, or disappearance. These dynamics are rarely mutual. They are imposed, often without consent. When such logic becomes embodied: who gets to speak, and who disappears? Echoing Peter Handke’s Self-Accusation, the piece reimagines it within digital regulation and content moderation. What unfolds is both a sound piece and a choreography of sabotage and submission. The lights never change. The curtain never falls. What kind of silence are we being trained to accept? Recorded at Tropez, Humboldthain Sommerbad, Berlin, 2025. Introduction by Nora O Murchú. Matto Zoppi is a sound artist and performer working at the intersection of live electronics, poetry, and extended voice. His practice merges elements of theater, radio art, and performance art to explore language as both a sonic material and a tool of perception, investigating themes of control, memory, and transformation. Tomato Cappelletti is a product designer and researcher exploring pop culture, interfaces, and the symbolic architectures of the internet, and co-founder of Clusterduck Collective. His practice blends UX/UI, art direction, and speculative design to create playful hybrid experiences that examine how digital tools and cultural narratives shape one another. @mattozoppi - http://www.mattozoppi.com @tomatocappelletti - http://www.tomatocappelletti.com Radiophrenia Shorts 27B Radiophrenia Shorts 27B 15 September 2026 1:30 pm - 2:00 pm 1 Simon Rattigan - River Habitation Unit (12:08) 2 Carey Lin and Gabriel Gilder - The cat says it in his language (2:21) 3 Kristina Kapilin and Laura Selby - Breath (1:41) 4 John Roach - Northfork Wind Sketch 2 - Steam (4:29) 1) Simon Rattigan - River Habitation Unit The sounds of the river and its environment are recorded and synthesised, compositions arranged for Radio to explore post "New Brutalism" in architecture and nature. The flow of the river changes direction twice a day. It is pushed and pulled by the ocean tides and powerful, celestial forces. A new town is placed on the marshland at the cities edge, on the banks of the River Thames. The water moves like a shifting language to deliver the new town its name, Thamesmead. Previously on this muddy piece of ground, tanks tested their guns. 1960’s idealism built the estate in utilitarian style in poured concrete. An invisible river flows below ground and carries another type of water from the vertically stacked homes. This wastewater drops through the heart of the towers into the horizontal sewer beneath. Brutalism, as truth of material, where nothing is hidden and characterised by noise and decay. Simon Rattigan is an artist living in London, working with moving image and sound to discover new configurations of history, memory, and personal shared experience. His practice encompasses recording, collecting ephemera and researching archival documents. Creating a synthesis of real and illusory phenomena entering into social, biological and technological histories. In his work materiality of media is processed to evoke questions of authenticity, hierarchies of knowledge and cultural belonging. Occupying a hybrid space in which we materially and psychologically reconstruct and redefine our relationship to the past and other temporal conditions. His work has been displayed nationally and internationally. simonrattigan.com 2) Carey Lin and Gabriel Gilder - The cat says it in his language This piece is inspired by a drawing that our 4-year-old son made and the story that he told us about it. We were intrigued by his playful descriptions and unique logic. Reinterpreting his narrative through our layered voices, effects, and music, we’ve attempted to reveal a dynamic imaginary world. This piece was originally created for Small Audio Art #5 — Pictures and was featured in the 2025 XMTR Audio Arts Festival. Carey Lin and Gabriel Gilder are San Francisco-based visual artists who have collaborated since 2016. Their practice has taken the form of film and video, animation, sound compositions, publications and interactive walking tours.

All other sounds were derived, in one way or another, by the wind and Arden’s steam whistles. This sketch was created during the Uncommon Arts Residency at the Sound View in January 2026 in Greenport, NY on the North Fork of Long Island. John Roach is an interdisciplinary artist with a particular interest in sound and multisensory experience and he builds environments that blur the line between what we see and what we hear. His sound compositions often focus on themes related to ecological systems, biodiversity and climate and exist in a space between electroacoustic music, documentary and experimental radio art. These pieces, shaped by a playful embrace with uncertainty, bring together his field recording practice, instrumental passages, and conversations with artists, scientists, writers, historians and others. https://johnroach.net/ https://www.instagram.com/johnroachart Federico Pipia - The Place You Were Looking For Federico Pipia - The Place You Were Looking For 15 September 2026 2:00 pm - 2:45 pm Amidst the real-life kidnapping of Aldo Moro in 1970s Rome, a U.S. intelligence operative attending a clandestine séance encounters the spectral voice of his deceased daughter, leading him down a rabbit hole where political conspiracy intertwines with a haunting personal tragedy and a shocking revelation about a past covert operation.

In dEFlowERing VIEtnameSe, the artist has collected 49 recordings of a diverse group of Vietnamese people. These participants were asked to read a simplified version of the original text published in the 12th Grade Literature Textbook as accurately as possible. The resulting recordings were then edited into a sound collage, capturing various accents, dialects, and idiosyncrasies of pronunciation. Disrupting the idea of a singular, "pure" Vietnamese language, this “unpure” composition reflects how language can both cultivate unity and sow seeds of division as it is spoken across the country and beyond. Artist bio: Nguyen Hoang Gia Bao (Bao) is a multimedia poet from Vietnam. Bao’s art seeks to desacralize the traditional notions of language, offering an (anti)reading that exposes the failures of words, the absence of typography, phonaesthetics, translation, and adaptation. He practices digital poetry through a multidisciplinary lens, incorporating animation, sound art, curatorial practice, and performance art. His writings and multimedia pieces have appeared in prominent publications and platforms such as Rivering (RMIT Australia), Sui Generis (Bard College), Voice and Verse Poetry Magazine (Hong Kong) Vănguard, Radiophrenia (Glasgow), and WXCB Radio (Bard College).

In the middle of the night an indefinable anxiety brings more and more questions to light. Round Midnight is an intimate play about migration and identity. About open and closed borders outside and inside of our minds. A soliloquy about being a stranger and a native. An unusual biography taking place between the South of Germany and the North of England. Round Midnight circles around the questions of where someone can stay and where someone chooses to stay, where one can be at home and where one can truly feel at home. Gabriele Heller is a writer, director and performer working in audio art, theatre and music. Her work spans from historical adaptation to non linear narratives combining improvised music and soundscapes to explore social, cultural and philosophical concerns within society. Her audio plays have been shortlisted, broadcasted and awarded at various international festival and radio art platforms. Originally form Germany she lives and works in Newcastle since 2001. In 2025 Gabriele initiated and curates RADIOPHONICX a new communal listening event presenting international audio art in Newcastle upon Tyne, UK. http://www.gabrieleheller.com/ 2) Nik Degtyarev (NOGR collective) - north sound north_sound recording is made along the route through the border area between Russia and Norway using a radio receiver. The peculiarities of radio signals in the conditions of crossing the networks of civil and military frequencies of different countries, dramatically changing terrain and necessity to be in constant motion create a unique sound landscape of this northern route, while the intersection of social and political contexts creates the need to move along it in both directions. The beginning of the border control on the E105 highway is the checkpoint where the fact of vehicle passing and the number of persons inside are recorded and transferred to the border post. About 30 minutes are given to pass the further territory, which is closed to public and civil activity. This soundscape is an image of rupture and estrangement. It is, in essence, an image of the "invisible enemy" — one that can never be discerned through such a "zone of exclusion." link: http://www.nogr.me/northsound Nogr is an artistic and research collective. In 2022, the NOGR collective underwent a radical transformation. Today it is an open structure that still resists personal authorship, while manifesting personal responsibility for utterance and action. Our sustained work with political imagination and cross-border interaction no longer holds practical value within its original frame, as the return of "the right of the strong," imperialist war, and the maximization of information slop erases such statements and strips them of any practical dimension. Today we must build the preconditions for resistance, for pushing back against aggression and inequality — at the very least within the culture we can reach. We believe it is now necessary to focus on practices of "radical care," on images of resource redistribution through the loss and transformation of one's own identities (rather than their defense). Images of commonality within migration, exile, struggle, and horizontal support — this is our cultural goal. We understand that artistic research is a weak foundation for such a manifesto. Still, our attempts and our work will be directed at exactly this. We still believe that difficult questions and artistic images can contribute to positive change. An emerging decolonial optics within culture drives the disintegration of imperialist narratives, alongside support for the total necessity of the dissolution and destruction of empires as such. The colonizer's language cannot be decolonized from within its own grammar — which is why we believe it is now essential to change (to live through disintegration) ourselves as well. 3) Hervé Girardin - Peau de Vache (Cowhide) Peau de Vache (Cowhide) is a sound piece which proposes an immersion in the sound universe of an ox on his last journey to the slaughterhouse. Recorded at an organic cooperative farm in the Swiss countryside from June to October 2023, it follows a young anonymous ox in the pasture with his herd, his daily walk back to the stables, and his final journey from the cattle truck to the butchers. By means of collage of field recordings as a form of time compression, Peau de Vache (Cowhide) explores the musicality of such a fateful journey and bring us for once very close to this familiar yet enigmatic animal. Hervé Girardin is a sound designer, engineer and composer based in Edinburgh. After studying Jazz guitar and composition in his native Switzerland, he moved in the pre-Brexit UK to pursue a career in sound. Audio engineer in music venues and theatres whilst composing and playing in several musical outfits in South Wales , then Manchester, he then settled in Scotland to practice the craft of sound design for media. He won The Hideo Nishizaki Award for Best Sound at SAFF 2022. Hervé launched his own sound design company KATSU Audio in January 2026. https://www.katsu-audio.com https://hervegirardin.bandcamp.com/album/peau-de-vache-cowhide Radiophrenia Shorts 56B Radiophrenia Shorts 56B 15 September 2026 4:30 pm - 5:00 pm 4 Martyn Riley - Walkie-Talkie (15:00) 5 Leonie Roessler - Hi, my name was... or the silence when the children are gone (7:14) 4) Martyn Riley - Walkie-Talkie Walkie-Talkie revisits spaces after time has passed. Eighteen months on, a relatively short span, what remains when returning to photographs and field recordings? Can we recover how we felt, the impressions that settled on us? What words surface, and how do they arrange themselves? The piece combines cymbals, two walkie-talkies (one partially broken), and a radio. The voice was recorded in February 2026 during an automatic writing session, prompted by photographs and field recordings from the original trip. The work originates from a solo recording session in a loft in Aulus-les-Bains at CAMP FR, immediately following the Environment and Synthesis workshop in Autumn 2024, hosted by Mark Fell Martyn Riley’s work is defined by collaboration and a play(ful) approach to exploring themes of memory, decay, and found objects. His practice includes installations that blend diverse media: tapes, samples, field-recording, spoken-text, sculpture, and photography; centred on storytelling and evoking memories. Over the past decade, he has curated and produced experimental music events (adsr) and performed with various audio and visual collaborators. Most recently with Beth Robertson as Tokoro Wohnen, which sees their debut release on Flaming Pines early Summer ‘26. The ongoing project ‘Red DatsunWhite Jag’ centred around a decaying car discovered in Oxfordshire woods created a sonic piece, ’59,312.85’ for 2025’s iteration of the Radiophrenia transmissions. Recent sound installation work has been shown at Aesthetica Short Film Festival (‘Flux & Possibilities’), The Swiss Church, Soho for ‘caving’, as part of the DDS collective and ‘FUMP HULDER’ at Project Divfuse. http://www.martynriley.co.uk https://www.instagram.com/martyn_riley_sound/ 5) Leonie Roessler - Hi, my name was... or the silence when the children are gone A sound work made from field recordings in Iran and India. A social commentary in a world where children’s voices are disappearing. The title speaks for itself. Leonie Roessler - Composer, Performer and teacher based in The Hague, Netherlands. Leonie captures her environment with field recordings, which she uses for radio pieces, sound installations, and instrumental compositions. Part of her work is purely sound-based, however the theme of marginalization has become increasingly present in her radio works. She is part of LOOS in The Hague, and co-curates On Air - On Site Festival and BUG Radio. Her works have been released through Musica Dispersa (Spain/UK), and Noise á Noise (IR/DE), Biodiversitàs (IT), Syrphe (DE), and Antilounge (NL) and have been physically archived in the British Library. leonieroessler.com Facebook: Leonie Roessler Insta: ljroessler Jett Llagan - industrees (live in the studio) Jett Llagan - industrees (live in the studio) 15 September 2026 5:00 pm - 5:30 pm industrees is a speculative music label presented as a 30 minutes live in-studio radio performance. The broadcast features fictional sound artists and musicians whose practices revolve around field recordings, electronic music, and noise. Here, “selected works” are shaped by the ever-evolving conditions of rural and urban ecologies. Within this imagined radio narrative, the fabulated label becomes a platform to engage issues of body, atmosphere, and memory across shifting landscapes. In this context, radio functions as a medium to pose situated philosophical questions: How does sound circulate through environments marked by industrialization and extraction? What does it mean for a body to produce, transmit, and archive its own sonic labor? Who or what gets to be heard within rural and urban infrastructures? Through narration and live performance, the broadcast uses the immediacy of radio to stage these questions in real time, grounding speculation in audible, embodied acts of transmission. Artist bio: Jett Ilagan (b. 1991), is an interdisciplinary artist, and a cultural worker based in the Philippines and Taiwan. His body of works, which include installation, video art, and audio-visual performance, explore environmental sounds, particularly the idea of “cultural soundscapes,” through immersion-based methods such as psychogeography, sound walking, holding community workshops, and personal encounters with the subject environment and its locals. Ilagan investigates spatial soundscapes, intending to encourage people to question and reflect on their relationship with the environment in this period, during which human activities have dominated rural & urban ecology and generative spaces.

And for some the obsession goes too far… Produced during a week-long residency at WORM, Rotterdam as part of the Radiophrenia/WORM residency exchange programme. Originally performed live as part of Radio WORM’s 25-hour live radio marathon. Biography: The Radiophrenic workshop on this occasion consisted of core Radiophrenia team members: Elina Bry, Stevie Jones, Timothea Armour and Mark Vernon. Radiophrenia is a radio art collective, festival and art radio station broadcasting intermittently across Glasgow on 87.9FM and online. https://radiophrenia.scot/ Steven George Jones - Treatment Steven George Jones - Treatment 15 September 2026 6:45 pm - 7:00 pm Surreptitiously made recordings of radiotherapy to treat cancer to the vocal cords are collaged with recordings made of an organ being tuned. I visited various cathedrals to make recordings of organs being tuned as part of my cancer recovery process. The recording used here is of the repair and tuning of the Wynnstay organ (1774) in Cardiff Museum. Also embedded in the collage are recordings of speech therapy exercises made during my recovery process.

Cities are rich with soundscapes—some strikingly prominent, others subtle and elusive. Every street, alley, neighborhood, park, and harbor carries its own evolving sonic identity, making each moment distinct and unrepeatable. The work drew from field recordings, blending discrete and processed sounds with other audio sources to reimagine specific locations and experiences as imaginative auditory worlds. Unlearning Noise invites listeners to reinterpret the concept of noise within urban environments, encouraging them to uncover its hidden meanings and untapped possibilities. Officially released on CD by Discreet Archive on October 17, 2025. Many thanks to Jacob Calland.

Songs from the album intertwine with field recordings, voice notes, archival fragments, and multilingual narration in Tunisian Arabic, Classical Arabic, French, Italian, and English, composing a listening experience that inhabits a third space between presence and absence, intimacy and distance. The radio piece extends beyond the album by weaving together a constellation of voices that open new pathways into its research. Original excerpts from the record are interlaced with reflections, testimonies, and poetic interventions that reveal the collaborative ecology from which the work emerged. Dramaturg Tolja Djokovic, who developed the poetic dramaturgy of the performance together with Corps Citoyen, reflects on writing as a practice of listening across languages and lived histories. Curator and director Anna Serlenga shares insights into the performative and visual construction of the work, while actor and performer Aymen Mejri—co-founder of Corps Citoyen during its early years in post-revolutionary Tunisia—offers an original poetic text inspired by diaspora as an interior condition: a geography of the self where memory, displacement, and belonging continuously reshape one another. The first excerpt, Ghrib, opens with a WhatsApp voice note from Rabii Brahim's aunt and unfolds as a duet suspended across generations and geographies. Here, diaspora is not simply migration but a resonant condition—a space where rupture becomes creation, longing takes the form of sound, and absence is transformed into intimacy. Artist bio: Corps Citoyen is a multidisciplinary artistic collective based in Tunis and Milan. The collective’s artistic practice crosses performance, theatre, social and anthropological research, video-documentary and participatory projects in public space to create new narratives of the present and investigate the complexity of the contemporary, with a decolonial approach aimed to stress who have the right to speak in public sphere. Barrani is their last piece, born as a performance-concert and later released as a record by Hundebiss Records in 2025; it is conceived and performed by Rabii Brahim (vocals, triggered percussions, objects), Manuel D’Onofrio (synths, processed samples, bowed cymbals), directed by Anna Serlenga.    Website/social links https://www.corpscitoyen.org/ Kunstradio 5: Miyuki Jokiranta and Ben Byrne - "Whalefall" Kunstradio 5: Miyuki Jokiranta and Ben Byrne - "Whalefall" 15 September 2026 8:00 pm - 8:30 pm Broadcast: February 6th, 2025, Kunst zum Hören (Kunstradio) Whalefall listens to the stories of leviathans, mythic and real. Deep below rising sea levels, whales sing to one another across hundreds and sometimes thousands of kilometres. But whales' voices are changing and so is the way they speak to us. Their songs shift as they cross the oceans. Their pitch is moving downward, perhaps to be heard in an ever noisier seascape. Whalefall listens to the stories of leviathans, mythic and real. These giants of the deep swim through our imagination, as sea monsters to be feared and tamed, the power of the state as conceived by Thomas Hobbes, and echoes of natural beauty. We hear the whales' calls echo, field recordings played back, their envelopes followed through modular synthesis. Pitch bends with depth and pressure and sub bass shudders as we dive deeper. We stumble into a haunted ballroom in the belly of a whale, before falling to the ocean floor. The leviathan, it turns out, is human.

Chopin revolutionized the anatomy of discourse with his semantic developments and his interplay of sound textures. A true pioneer in the making, still alive in our daily trainings of experimentation. Main sonic source of inspiration was his amazing ability to swallow, to devour the word and the meaning with it, and to get sounds simultaneously in every performance. As he said for his work of concrete art "La Digestion" @ABC Television, Sidney in 1992, – "the body is always like a factory! It never stops – there’s no silence!"

The recordings are arranged in a palindromic fashion, with reversed sections of audio that invert the melodic ‘earworm’ and provide some variation. A comparative recording can be found on ‘Voice of The People Vol 16: You Lazy Lot of Bone-Shakers - Songs & Dance Tunes of Seasonal Events’ recorded by the BBC in 1943, issued by Topic Records in 1998. Craig Gell is an artist and musician from Bournemouth. His creative practice usually involves exploring the landscape making field recordings and using coding to produce multimedia installations, experimental compositions and interactive apps for remote and outdoor experiences. He has also produced two albums of his own guitar-led compositions, ‘Pomerania’(2024), and ‘The Pleasure Gardens’(2025). https://www.craiggellmusic.com https://craiggell.bandcamp.com https://www.instagram.com/craig_gell/ 5) Dimitris Batsis feat. Brandon Invergo - A Communion A Communion is a cinematic sound piece exploring field recordings, voice, and spatiality as a narrative structure. The work was developed as a radio-centric sonic exploration in which musical textures intersect with narrative and ambient space. Blending musical and non-musical elements, the piece intends to create an immersive audio environment in order to engage the listener through shifting atmospheres and sonic perspectives.

Something(s) are digging; a presence is intruding beneath the surface. Sounds that open and close, like dimensional rifts, are the undesirables that transform the landscape into a place of unease and speculation, where the real and the surreal merge. Julia Griner is a musician and sound artist. Their artistic approach lies in the use of sound as a tool for investigation and narrative to deconstruct and reinterpret reality. Whether the subject of study is the evolution of climate data, the complexity of power dynamics within an intimate space, or the uncanny nature of a disturbed landscape, the sonic process transforms territories into fields of inquiry where the listener is invited to engage in active and critical listening. Diversion, collage, shift, obsolete technologies, Bach, aliens, ghosts and the sonification of data are at the heart of her practice. In parallel with her wanderings towards sound material, Julia Griner pursues sound design activities for museum institutions. juliagriner.com Ig : @juliagrinerabraham 7) Melas Eichhorn - VIS http://www.melusineeichhorn.de 8) Ken Hannaford - Shortwave-tuning Ken Hannaford - Shortwave-tuning Shortwave radio has been used as a sound source by John Cage in the 1950's (Imaginary Landscape). His aim was to explore indeterminate events. Here the use of material is very different. I selected particular events from several hours of broadcast, and then subjecting these to electronic manipulation. A more poetic title might be Bleak-landscape, and I think of R. V. Williams' final movement to the 6th symphony as being of a similar character. Studied music in Huddersfield and Southampton, the latter researching Peter Maxwell Davies. Took further degrees in Education which I still engage in on a voluntary basis in my 7th decade.

Margarita Fert, who identifies as a neurodiverse person, calls this receptivity to non-human voices telepathy, while Alisa Vostiklap Savtchenko approaches it as a spectrum of consciousness moving through the material world. It was conversations between them on this subject that formed the basis of the project, proposing the idea that neurodiverse people are a few steps ahead of the neurotypical majority when it comes to empathic engagement with other beings and inanimate objects in their everyday lives. This practice of attention proposes a deviation from the pre-eminence of the human subject that is leading humanity towards ecological catastrophe, offering a radical alternative to the modus operandi of our society. The sound piece follows the mental pathways that arise from an exchange with a geranium plant, a Starbucks cup or a gambling machine. Artist bios: Fert & Vostiklap is a collective formed by two friends who have known each other since the age of 11. Alisa Vostiklap Savtchenko (1983, Kyiv) is a multidisciplinary artist based in Berlin. Much of her artistic practice revolves around interspecies communication, probing the porous membrane between the body-centered self and the multitude of different forms of consciousness. She is a member of the sound scenography studio TAUCHER. Margarita Fert (1983, St. Petersburg) is a Montreal-based artist and poet whose practice is shaped by telepathic conversations with non-human beings. Working across drawing, painting, and writing, she develops visual works through ongoing dialogue with these interlocutors, who at times guide their imagery and composition. An activist for animal rights and veganism, she also creates temporary urban interventions engaging with these causes. She is currently completing a collection of autobiographical essays and is a member of the Montreal association for neurodiverse artists Les Impatients.

It is as if a magical device has skipped through time to make audible the feminist voices refusing to be quiet; of a history yet to be attained. Focusing on the possibility of collapsing time through affective contact between history and people, Ray's work embodies textual and discursive approaches to the politics of belonging, community, and empowerment. Ray earned a PhD in Fine Art in 2018 from the Malmö Art Academy. An Art Matters Fellow, Ray has exhibited at PS1 MoMA and Sculpture Center in NY, Wanås Foundation and Skissernas Museum in Sweden. Their work has appeared in Art Forum, New York Times, and Bomb Magazine. http://www.andrearay.net IG: ARay5 2) Cameron Naylor - Within the Whispering Gallery Whispering gallery refers to the way that sound travels close to a curved wall, creating an artificial sense of intimacy in otherwise expansive rooms. I wanted to capture and represent this phenomenon, using the juxtaposition of the distant and intimate in a large venue as an exploration of two contrasting spatial perspectives, and how they form in quiet public settings to create scenes of quietude and chaos. Cameron Naylor is a sound artist working between film, theatre, radio, and electroacoustic composition. He is interested in the art and technique of storytelling through sound, music, and spoken word and his works have been heard across the globe. His electronic music has been recognised in composition competitions including: Iannis Xenakis International Electronic Music Competition (Greece), MA/IN (Italy), Métamorphoses (Belgium), and the Ars Electronica Forum Wallis (Switzerland). Further afield, he has received several commissions from the BBC, and his installations have been exhibited in notable venues such as the Ars Electronica (Linz), and the G20 Summit (New Delhi). cameronnaylor.com 3) Ilaria Boffa - Accumulation This sonopoem is a celebration of the unheard, unseen, the hidden. It’s an act of affirmation through what is missing, absent or disappeared. Field recording taken by Ilaria Boffa in the Euganean Hills in Northeast Italy w/ zoom H6 and music performed on Lyra 8. Ilaria Boffa is an Italian bilingual poet and sound recordist. She has published four poetry books to date and her work was included in the 2018 NeMLA Publication ‘Writing in a Different Language’. Her sono-poems, combining poetry and field recording, have been played at international poetry film festivals and radio art events. She is a permanent member of EAPS poetry and sound art collective and in 2025 she performed an experimental poem with the Swiss theatre group ‘Collettivo Treppenwitz’ at LAC Lugano. One of her sono-poems is part of a permanent sound installation at the Pitt Rivers Museum in Oxford/London. https://linktr.ee/ilariaboffaIB https://soundcloud.com/ilaria_boffa https://www.instagram.com/ilaria.boffa/ 4) Fahmi Mursyid - Sounds of Aglaonema The sonic output generated by an Aglaonema plant playing an FM synth module via a biodata sonification device is a uniquely organic and ever-evolving tapestry of sound. Because the music is generative and real-time, it possesses an inherent unpredictability; gentle, sustained notes might suddenly give way to faster, more complex melodic fragments, mirroring the plant's dynamic engagement with its environment. Fahmi Mursyid is a composer, contemporary musician, experimental artist, multimedia designer and producer based in Bandung, Indonesia. He uses found objects (acoustic and electronic instruments) and computer to create glitch sound, sampling, granular synthesis, shimmering, swirling electronic sound of enormous range and complex-simple musicality. His music featured on Muestra internacional de Música Electroacústica (Mexico, 2018), SOUND/IMAGE19 (UK, 2019), Australasian Computer Music Association (Australia, 2020). His albums that have been released are Tanah Merah (Maryland, 2018); Sejarah (Czech, 2018); Alam (Italy, 2019); Akur (Indonesia, 2019); Krakatoa (California, 2019); One Instrument Sessions 03 (Germany, 2019); and Suasana Lain (UK, 2025). https://tinyurl.com/fahmi-music-2025 5) Eleni-Ira Panourgia – Cellinsct Cellinsct is a series of short sound experimentations that propose an interplay between audible and inaudible manifestations of spatiotemporal scales of human and non-human perception. Soil recordings and cello sounds are processed in response to each other. Signals of non-human activity, including reactions of soil organisms such as insects to environmental conditions and changes, guide this process. At times, this unfolds in a biomimetic-like manner, and at other times as an adjustment to soil frequencies, exploring ways to be heard together through complementary textures and rhythms, or even competing elements. Cellinsct is an invitation to learn how to sense beyond our human body. Eleni-Ira Panourgia is a sound and visual artist, and researcher. Her work focuses on the development of new forms of expression and creative methods that combine sound, objects, spaces and environments. She explores the potential of such complex morphologies within artistic, design, social and ecological processes. Eleni-Ira’s work has been presented internationally in museums, galleries, festivals, exhibitions, radio shows, academic journals, edited volumes and conferences. Eleni-Ira completed a PhD in Art at the University of Edinburgh as a Scholar of the Onassis Foundation. She is Assistant Professor in Artistic Research and AI at Malmö Theatre Academy at Lund University. https://eleniirapanourgia.com/ Radiophrenia Shorts 43 B Radiophrenia Shorts 43 B 15 September 2026 11:00 pm - 11:30 pm 1 Magz Hall – The Source (1:37) 2 Mark Peter Wright – Soundings (6:06) 3 Hans Parment – Dive (5:15) 4 Ladé - Sage green (1:45) 5 Gracchi Administration - National Scandal (6:08) 1) Magz Hall – The Source The Source is a radio poem about water and air pollution inspired by the journey from the peaks of the Pyrenees to the Aulus-les-Bains. This soundscape poem traces the environmental cycle of the Pyrenees, beginning at the summit with the ethereal, celestial drones of a handmade Aeolian harp made by the artist played by the mountain wind. This pure, high-altitude harmony gives way to the intimate, rhythmic clink of mineral water being captured in bottles at the Aulus-les-Bains spa, marking the transition of the wild flow into a measured, medicinal dose for Gallo-Roman legacy cures and modern cholesterol treatments. The poem reaches its chilling resolution as the water evaporates from the valley and rises as condensation, carrying the "ghosts" of human industry back into the air. This mist eventually cools and falls, completing the cycle as it returns back into the river. The piece concludes with hydrophone recordings of the river, where the submerged, percussive thrum of the water acts as a final, dark witness—the persistent echo of the valley trapped within the rising mist, a sonic residue of exhaust and pollution flowing once more through the current. https://magzhall.com/ 2) Mark Peter Wright – Soundings What constitutes the scope and scale of a site beyond the conventions of mapping? How can we un-measure in asynchronous rhythms and soundings? The process of making this sound work involved setting a microphone on the floor, walking ten paces in one direction, counting to ten whilst standing still before walking back toward the microphone for ten paces, and then passing beyond it for another ten paces. Finally, I pause and stand still for another count of ten. In the edit suite, I cut the initial walk away from the microphone and the final walk toward the microphone. Leaving audible only the first pause moment, the walk-by action and final pause. Recordings are then faded into one another to create the experience of one impossible movement through time and space. All exterior and interior recordings were made on site during an artist residency at Cove Park, Scotland. Mark Peter Wright is an artist, researcher and writer. His practice mixes critical theory, sound and experimental pedagogy across installation, publication and performance. He is interested in the relationship between fieldwork, documentary forms and the gallery or studio, examining the ways technology, self and space perform agency, power and poetics. Wright is the director of CRiSAP (Creative Research in Sound Arts Practice), an interdisciplinary research centre dedicated to sound arts practice and theory based at the London College of Communication, UAL. His recent book Listening After Nature: Field Recording, Ecology, Critical Practice is published by Bloomsbury (2022/23). https://markpeterwright.net/ 3) Hans Parment – Dive Composed in 2025, this piece depicts color reproduction during deep sea diving, where the light frequencies that give color to plants, fish and rocks disappear the deeper you dive. First, slow wavelengths disappear until only the fastest ones remain, from red, orange, yellow, green, blue and finally violet. I have transposed from wavelengths between 405-690 THz to the audible frequency range. The design is done with 63 oscillators that generate a sine tone each and form an impure A# minor 7th chord with a range between 40-10,000 Hz. The piece has a chord progression I-IV-V-V-I and is based on the A# minor 7th chord's harmonic series. Dive's form is based on the golden ratio. To the listener: • By moving your head slowly you will hear different tones arise. • The piece is in mono and there are no sudden, surprising dynamic changes in the piece. Hans Parment has written music for a diverse range of performers and environments. His compositions cover the complete spectrum of instrumentation, from solo to orchestra. Parment also works with electroacoustic music, often combining electroacoustic treatments with instruments and as a flutist he also plays improvised contemporary music. Parment often works on interdisciplinary projects bringing together visual artists, contemporary dance, performers and video film makers. https://italienskapalatset.se/konstnar/hans-parment 4) Ladé - Sage green Taken from Chia Seeds, a selection of sample based ambient sounds. Intuitively made, emotionally driven and trance inducing. Ladé is a Scottish Nigerian producer whose work is rooted in abstract, sample-based experimental music. From ambient compositions to footwork and abstract hip-hop, their intuitive, emotional work draws on the Afro-diasporic consciousness, guiding listeners through transcendent Black rhythms and global sonic landscapes. https://linktr.ee/lade444?utm_source=linktree_profile_share&ltsid=fc3f14e4-d9ab-458b-8fe2-e94687739b43 5) Gracchi Administration - National Scandal National Scandal is a short audio work comprised of spam voice messages recorded on my mobile phone. The facility to do this was made possible through the use of a recent feature added by the phone manufacturer called "call screening". I used various methods to process these "found sounds", including live coding environments (Tidal Cycles), Max MSP and in some instances, I did not process them at all. The shifting sonic montage that accompanies the source material situates it into unusual spaces. Whilst editing this work, it felt more like editing various film clips into a disassociated montage than editing audio for a seamless linear audio experience. I believe this non-linear, montage style of story telling, often seen on film, is uniquely compelling in a radio broadcast setting. Here, the audio guides the listeners imagination and engages the abstract mind to unfold a narrative. I live and work in London as a musician and composer. My main areas of creative interest are sound art, audio-visual work, field recording and experimental documentaries, discussing the Chin Li - The Last Chant Chin Li - The Last Chant 15 September 2026 11:30 pm - 11:59 pm When the world is collapsing into a gigantic question mark, you wonder whether it'd make sense to turn to fiction for answers. But in the end the only answer you'll find is there is no answer. La Lutte continue... Artist bio: Chin Li, originally from Hong Kong and now living in Edinburgh, has worked as a clinical psychologist in the English as well as the Scottish NHS mental health services for many years before turning to writing full-time. His fiction and poetry are published in various literary journals and magazines, including Confluence, Glasgow Review of Books, Gutter, Postbox, Southword and Unpsychology. Some of his audio works have been broadcast on Radiophrenia over the past few years. He is still learning how to tell stories truthfully. • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •	16 The Spectral Transmissions Research Unit 9 - PROPHECIES & GATHERING CRIES The Spectral Transmissions Research Unit 9 - PROPHECIES & GATHERING CRIES 16 September 2026 12:00 am - 1:00 am Midwinter: In these northern climes midwinter is a time of Inversion and strange magic. It is a time of opposites and anarchies, bright fires and feasts in the darkness and cold. A time of fortunes won and lost, visions seen, prophecies made and battles between elemental forces waged. Day turns to night and The Holly and Oak Kings, once again trade places . Spectral beings prowl the land and the Fool is made King. Midwinter, is the time of the Lord of Misrule, and the Wild Hunt. Some might think these as rude, Rough and Rusty relics of a former age.If they come, they come not: If they come not, they come. With original material by Jon Colyer and elements of Being & Doing 1985 by Stuart Brisley and Ken McMullen Artist bio: The Spectral Transmissions Research Unit is a collaboration between Ben Branagan and Luke Pendrell dedicated to constructing, receiving and transmitting Spectral Assemblages, Producing both temporal artefacts and modes of experimental cognitive practice. Each transmission develops through Spectral Assemblage, where fragments of everyday life gather in stochastic accumulators of latent potential, forming temporary constellations of association and alignment. These fluid states of indeterminism generate unexpected configurations, Denkinstruments enabling alternative modes of thought and meaning. Before transmission, assemblages are collapsed or fixed. Broken symmetries crystallize into temporal moments. Fluidity is sacrificed to enable closer inspection of the encoded relations and emergent entanglements.

Here, you're bodiless, floating above an undefined reality. One in a million breaths. Humanity's final hoorah feels lonely, with only echoes of other worlds to keep you company. There's beauty but it's saturated with melancholy, tears welling up in your eyes, nuzzling your head against those closest to you. You cherish the warmth, wishing to remain with it. But things are moving fast, blindly, and clumsily. Un-focus then refocus your attention. You might find solace in-between the spaces, among the delicate unintentional sounds. Observe the creatures on the train platform, as each breath marks their revolt. Composed of transient spaces, distal murmurings, fleeting memories, intimate moments, unintentional recordings, and creaturely intention. Artist bio: From excursions into folk music and sound art, to broadcasting and programming at Subcity Radio, I'm surrounded by an incredibly active and subversive community of artists here in Glasgow. Three years ago I began developing my field recording and soundscape practice. Listening, recording, and re-contextualising has provided a means of exploring the essential ambiguity and obscured forces operating beyond ordinary perception. This is a world where space is inverted, time fails, and being takes on new forms.

Meredith Kooi and Kenji Garland - is this what i sound like? is this me? 16 September 2026 1:30 am - 2:00 am “is this what i sound like? is this me?” is about searching and finding one’s way. M(K)G skip and swim around in sonic and electromagnetic waves, sometimes losing themselves. The base of the piece is an improvisational set M(K)G recorded in their home studio with Meredith on vocal processing and Kenji on Fretware, Kenji’s self-designed instrument. Then, they transmitted the recording using a low-power FM transmitter in their kitchen, the room next door. With multiple other low-power FM transmitters, receivers, and microphones, M(K)G played with the ether in the room, manipulating, sculpting, and interfering with the recording’s transmission and reception. By moving throughout the kitchen and the house with the devices, the changing relationships amongst the transmitters and receivers emerged through surprising sonic moments. Meredith’s voice and Kenji’s instrumentation weave in and out of the electromagnetic fog, at times getting lost in the din. Artist bio: M(K)G is Meredith Kooi and Kenji Garland, artists based in Kingston, NY, USA. Meredith uses radio, sound, video, performance and movement, photography, and writing to explore and communicate raw, emotional, and internal experiences as they (sometimes) relate to history and society. Kenji plays synthesizers, samplers, percussion, electroacoustic feedback systems, and their own homegrown, flexible-but-specialized, ever-evolving electronic instrument system in multiple groups. Working together, they dive into the stuff of identity and memory, accompanied by all of its discomforts.

"OTHER VOICES: echoes from a war zone" fused pre-recorded and live information, comprising texts, music, interviews, ambient sound, and radio works, into a broadcast/webcast soundscape. The programme blended existing radio work from the KUNSTRADIO archives, with new work responding to the situation in the Balkans. In 1999 KUNSTRADIO brought radio artist, GORDAN PAUNOVIC, to Vienna, to produce a special live radio mix of the program. Gordan Paunovic has a long history of participation in KUNSTRADIO projects. Until recently he was engaged with renowned Belgrade broadcasting entity, Radio B92, as the Head of the Music Department. Since the advent of war, Radio B92 has been taken over by a new management team with very different intentions to the original B92 operation, which itself has been locked out of its former premises. "OTHER VOICES: echoes from a war zone" was globally accessible over the World Wide Web live. The webcast comprised images, texts and an audio visual broadcast from the Vienna studios. The audio program, and informational material contextualising the event was archived after the broadcast on the KUNSTRADIO website: https://kunstradio.at/SPECIAL/OTHERVOICES/index.html Artists featured in "OTHER VOICES: echoes from the war zone" include: Arsenije Jovanovic, Gordan Paunovic, Ivana Stefanovic, Aleksandar Vasiljevic and Robert Klajn, from Jugoslavia and Agnieszka Waligorska/Pekka Sirén,(Finland), Dimitriy Nikolaev (Russia), Brian Conley (U.S.A.), Bob Ostertag (U.S.A.) and many more. Conduction Series 7 Conduction Series 7 16 September 2026 3:00 am - 4:00 am The 2025/6 Conduction Series Emphasizing live radio, interactivity, and media archaeological methods, The 2025/6 Conduction Series explores themes of migration, noise, feedback, speculative fiction, transmissive theatrics, and recreational aesthetics. The collective comes together on the first Friday of every month at 3:02pm ET using custom-made software. Some sessions don't have a description and the one on October 3th doesn't have even a title. However, some have a more detail description as in The Spiral: The record groove or a strip of tape moves forward by circling, slipping into another layer each time. That coiling motion echoes how time forms paths that don’t quite repeat. The spiral frames the way patterns return at different scales, from tiny biological curves to movements that shift light, air, and weather. A shared structure keeps resurfacing and shows how things grow and reorganize, how memory drifts, and how repetition comes back slightly off axis, opening another turn. Artist bio: The Conduction Series is a collaborative live radio broadcast produced by sound and transmission artists across the Americas on Wave Farm’s WGXC 90.7-FM Radio for Open Ears in New York’s Upper Hudson Valley. Artists names are: Betsey Biggs, August Black, Peter Courtemanche, Florencia Curci, Jeff Economy, Anna Friz, Jimmy Garver, Maximilian Goldfarb, Virginia Mantinian, and Rodrigo Ríos Zunino. The Conduction Series is syndicated on Radio MonteAudio in Montevideo, Uruguay, Radio Tsonami in Valparaíso, Chile, Radio CASo in Buenos Aires, Argentina, CITR FM in Vancouver, Canada, New Adventures in Sound Art in Ontario, Canada, and on Radio 1190 in Boulder/Denver, USA. https://conduction.wavefarm.org/ Radiophrenia Shorts 25 Radiophrenia Shorts 25 16 September 2026 4:00 am - 5:00 am Absolute Value of Noise - Music for magnolias Absolute Value of Noise - Music for magnolias 16 September 2026 5:00 am - 8:00 am Music for magnolias is an outdoor sound installation. It consists of several sound-making "Spots" - each made-up of a small solar cell and a tiny electronic circuit. These Spots are attached to the lower branches of a large tree (preferably a Magnolia). As the sun moves across the sky, it shines through the leaf coverage of the tree and produces a dappled light effect on the solar cells. This causes the solar power for each circuit to fade in and out, allowing each Spot to play with different sounds and signal strengths at different times of the day and in different weather conditions. This radio piece is a recent recording of Magnolias playing in the winter sun, with a bit of the outdoor background noise and some added birds and sounds from the summer. Artist bio: Absolute Value of Noise (Peter Courtemanche) is a sound artist living in Vancouver. He works with radio and sound installation in indoor and outdoor locations. He likes to work with bio-electric circuits, magnetic transceivers, and "little electronic brains" that observe and respond to local phenomena. His outdoor installations typically integrate solar-powered electronics with plants. These works investigate themes of bio-diversity, extinction, and fragile eco-systems. They emphasize the invisible, drawing attention to things people normally overlook or avoid (insects, lichen, moss, weeds, pollution). The sounds from the outdoor works invariably make their way onto the radio and into various performance pieces.

He was the first Polish author to write exclusively in the Polish language, and is considered to be one of the founders of Polish literary language and literature. In my piece "The Lunches in Rejowiec" ("Obiadki w Rejowcu") I was inspired by some excerpts from his "Life of an Honest Man" ("Żywot człowieka poczciwego"). The fragments used in the composition are almost old Polish cookbook and from today's point of view, praised Polish cuisine and slow food. Rej's text is performed by the famous Polish actor Krzysztof Kolberger, and I am slicing vegetables at the microphone.

Remixing the original recordings of these psychic tapes, “What This Means For Your life is Nothing” is a dizzying collage of parallels, contradictions, and ethereal guidance from two outsiders on one young life, playfully commenting on the insolubility of mysticism. Melanie Sevcenko is an audio editor & producer, reporter, writer, and sound artist. Based in Portland, OR, she currently edits and produces Live Wire, a nationally-syndicated public radio variety program from PRX. She's also reported for numerous outlets, including The Guardian, American Public Media, NPR, BBC World Service, CBC, and Deutsche Welle, among others. As a poet, her debut collection "I Still Go to Bed with Water" was published by Unsolicited Press in 2022. She's also the recipient of a Portland Arts Project Grant and has attended several artist residencies in the Pacific Northwest. https://www.msevcenko.com/ https://www.instagram.com/melaniesevcenko/ 3) Petri Kuljuntausta – Aspen The work is based on two soundscape recordings I made in summer 2025: a huge aspen tree swaying in the wind on the shore of a lake, and early morning bird soundscape. The work begins with the rustling sound field created by the leaves. When the wind blows, thousands of leaves beat against each other. As the protein-rich leaves of the aspen are hard, this produce rhythmic sounds when they hit each other. A wide "clapping sound field" is created. A few dotted water sounds and the splashing of water might tune the ear to the waves. But this is an illusion, it is the sound of aspen. The second sound layer is a modified, abstracted and distanced, bird soundscape. This provided a starting point for new sounds generated with granular synthesis. The work ends as it began, with the sound of a huge aspen tree in the wind. Petri Kuljuntausta compose electronic music, improvises as a guitarist and with electronic instruments, plays with animals and birds, makes underwater performances, performs in different natural spaces with environmental sounds, and create sound art. Kuljuntausta is currently developing the technique on how to play as an artist with nature and animals: How to connect through sound to the sound processes of the environment equally and without disturbing the nature’s own sound processes. He is an adjunct professor in sound art and electronic music. https://kuljuntausta.com/ Radiophrenia Shorts 12B Radiophrenia Shorts 12B 16 September 2026 8:30 am - 9:00 am 1 Nicolás Rey – Phenomena (5:27) 2 Tisa Neža Herlec – Dust (8:33) 3 Volker Ignaz Schmidt - Solfeggio Apparation II (11:21) 4 Hans Parment – Roll (3:23) 1) Nicolás Rey – Phenomena PHENOMENA is a single track from The Other-Voices, an Argentine research-based sound project focused on voice, listening, and technological mediation. Conceived as a sonic piece rather than a linear composition, PHENOMENA places radio practice at the center of its inquiry, approaching broadcasting and transmission as both material and method. Built from radio signals, archival recordings, and processed vocal fragments, the piece engages with forms of vocal spectrality as media phenomena: fractured utterances, altered timbres, and residual presences shaped by tuning, interference, and signal decay. The voice appears not as expression, but as trace—marked by the technical and temporal conditions of radio transmission. Rather than advancing a closed narrative, PHENOMENA unfolds as an open listening situation informed by media-archaeological thinking. Through its sonic structure, the piece invites a speculative mode of listening attentive to mediation, discontinuity, and the fragile thresholds through which sound persists and meaning momentarily takes form. Sociologist and sound artist based in Buenos Aires, Argentina. PhD candidate at the University of Buenos Aires. His work combines artistic practice, university teaching, and academic research at the intersection of sociology, sound studies, and media studies. He explores voices that insist on existing through deteriorated recordings, obsolete technologies, and sonic excess, where the recorded voice shifts from document to event. Through radio practices, magnetic tape, and analog devices, he investigates vocal traces that persist within noise as forms of memory and mediation. His work also dialogues with projects such as Umbral and The Trace of the Siege. li.sten.to/nicolasmrey 2) Tisa Neža Herlec – Dust Dust is omnipresent, dust is persistent, dust is a metaphor for community and action. This participatory and partially improvised radioplay was made in one take, in a live setting, including the voices of the audience that constructed the polyvocal character of The Dust. Direction and narration by Tisa Neža Herlec (Radio Študent, Ljubljana), the voice of the asthmatic by Lukas Simonis (Radio Worm, Rotterdam), recording and master by Ash Kilmartin (Radio Worm, Rotterdam). It was recorded in Divo Institute, Beja, Portugal in june 2025 during Let's do it Festival. Tisa Neža Herlec aka Tisa World (Slovenia/Netherlands) is a multidisciplinarian whose practice weaves voice, language, print-making, performance, composition and collective endeavours. She loves to share her methods of creation and empower collective art-making and publishing, often within the context of performative arts and radio. Currently, she is a resident of Švicarija, MGLC (The International Centre of Graphic Arts) in Ljubljana, Slovenia (2025-2027). https://tisa.world/ https://www.instagram.com/_tisa_world_/ 3) Volker Ignaz Schmidt - Solfeggio Apparation II The acousmatic composition is based on a piano part played by the pianist Friederike Wild. The sound material was electronically processed, alienated and enriched with binaural beats. The piece uses the solfeggio frequencies as pitch material. In addition to the importance of these frequencies (ut, re, mi, fa, sol, la) in the teachings of the music teacher Guido of Arezzo, there is esoteric theory about the healing powers of these frequencies, such as "liberation from guilt and fear (ut-396 Hz.)", "miracles and signs, transformation, DNA repair (mi-528 Hz.)" or "the return to the spiritual, divine order (la-852 Hz.)". Volker Ignaz Schmidt (born 1971 in Germany) studied computer science although his passion is music. He has composed solo works, chamber music, vocal pieces, orchestral music, chamber operas, conceptual and electronic music. He has written piano textbooks and he worked in school projects on contemporary music. http://www.volkerischmidt vis_composer 4) Hans Parment – Roll Roll (composed 2019) commissioned work for opening of the new house for Swedish broadcasting (SVT) and the wall paintings. Collaboration with Martin Bornholm an visual artist who made mural painting with 12 different rollers with different sound. I sampled all twelve rollers under the working in progress in his studio and create piece, the working gestures is very import for the piece. Hans Parment has written music for a diverse range of performers and environments. His compositions cover the complete spectrum of instrumentation, from solo to orchestra. Parment also works with electroacoustic music, often combining electroacoustic treatments with instruments and as a flutist he also plays improvised contemporary music. Parment often works on interdisciplinary projects bringing together visual artists, contemporary dance, performers and video film makers. https://italienskapalatset.se/konstnar/hans-parment Natalia Emilia Rivera Riffo - The animist acoustics Natalia Emilia Rivera Riffo - The animist acoustics 16 September 2026 9:00 am - 10:00 am The Animist Acoustics Series unfolds from a sound residency at ARLY in Sweden, developed through decolonial interviews and exchanges between Sámi and Mapuche perspectives. It proposes an intuitive dialogue between two ancestral cosmovisions that share an animistic understanding of the Earth, where rivers, stones, and winds are living presences. Recorded along the Ångermanälven River, the main composition weaves voices, silences, and the murmuring current into a site-specific soundscape shaped by deep listening. A second piece, improvised inside the Svanö cisterns, unfolds through melancholic voices escaping an erratic heartbeat, seeking circular echoes within resonant space. Low tones from flute and piano strings fill the cavernous architecture with haunting vibrations. Created through respectful exchange, the series connects distant territories, exploring cultural resonance without appropriation. Rooted in the artist’s mestiza identity and Mapuche heritage, it affirms sound as a space of resistance and spiritual dialogue with the Earth Artist bio: Natalia Rivera Riffo (b. 1982, Temuco, Chile) is a Paris-based sound and visual artist, researcher, and activist.

Jérémy Chevalier - There's nothing left to do but danse! 16 September 2026 10:00 am - 10:20 am I placed microphone capsules under my shoes. Each step becomes a recording. We always leave a trace, whether we want to or not. To walk is to inscribe. To engrave a sonic imprint into the ground. Somewhere between soundwalk and field recording, this project tells of our way of inhabiting the world, by gently crushing it, step by step. Artist bio: Jérémy Chevalier (b. 1983, Ambilly, France) is a Geneva-based artist working at the intersection of performance, sound art, and installation. His practice explores stage presence and the spectacular, often using DIY techniques and repurposed objects. Works like Scratched Record and Concrete Music (vinyl cast in concrete) question archives and traces. Influenced by DIY culture and science, he humorously examines technology’s impact on perception. Performances such as Chaosphonie and Speaker Prélude blend robotics and storytelling. His unique field recording approach captures sounds beneath his feet (Il ne reste plus qu’à danser!). Since 2019, he has presented Spirale Névrose, a poetic solo.

In the overlapping narrative between two places – Belgrade and the small town of Korčula in the Southern Adriatic – the story tackles the golden times of Yugoslavian water polo, the community-built island’s club KPK, where her parents first met, and the only small-town club that won a major European championship, producing some of the most important players in the history of Yugoslavian water polo. It is the story of her father, the family, post-WWII Yugoslavia, her early childhood, the culture, and the society that vanished savagely with the outbreak of the ex-Yugoslav conflicts in the 1990s.

An setup consisting of microphones and horn speakers carressing the treshold of acoústic feedback, revealing the architecture of these spaces, sketching their outlines and amplifying their voice. Artist bio: Amber Meulenijzer investigates the relation between space and sound, using various means like field recording, horn speakers, various synthesizers and sometimes an old Saab 900. Her work always seeks to connect with the context in which it is developed or displayed, interacting with architectural elements and environmental sounds or dynamics, finding the resonant frequencies of different landscapes. She researches moving sound sources in her work Saab Sculptures, a travelling sound system interacting with its surroundings, and works on different installation and performance formats. Looking for the composition in each space, she is inherently an in situ improvisor.

They were accused of witchcraft and sentenced to be burned at the stake. The work Brita Rölleker is neither a memorial, a tribute, nor a restoration. By weaving together human and more-than-human voices, the work explores interrelationality and the liberation inherent in the process of metamorphosis and constant becomings. The sound work consists of recordings of an Öxabäck loom, field recordings from Bålberget and lists of the names of the executed, the places they came from, and the edible and medicinal plants used in the region at the time. Neologisms such as att rölleka (to yarrow), att tussilaga (to coltsfoot), and att forsa (to river) apply verb forms to plants and waters. In doing so, they renegotiate subjecthood and the distribution of agency, blurring the boundaries between human and non-human embodiments. Artist bios: Linnéa Falck is an interdisciplinary artist and composer from Sweden currently based in Iceland. Her work encompasses sound composition, sculpture, site-respondent installations and ecosocial performances. She uses sound as her main medium to explore kinship and ways of listening with the environment, seeking to include more-than-human perspectives and intercorporal collaborations. Simon Schultz is an improvising musician and interdisciplinary artist producing sounding installations, performances and multichannel audio works. By transducing mindsets, methods, aesthetics, and concepts across disciplines, he seeks to engage spaces, ideas and objects in curious and critical conversations.

The catalogue is made up of several dozen sound recordings featuring squeaky, creaking, screeching or otherwise noisy swing sets. The reasons for swing noise are various – loose connections or fasteners, aging of the materials used in the construction of the swing, weather conditions affecting them, as well as the load and overload to which the swing is subjected. Although most of the recordings feature swings that only minimally differ in terms of mechanics, construction and materials used, their noise is never identical, providing a sound testimony to the environment in which the swing is placed. Swinging, photos – Ada Ruszkiewicz; Idea, recording, editing and mixing – Ernests Vilsons. Artist bio: Ernests Vilsons is a Latvian composer living in Rīga. He writes music for acoustic instruments and electronic means, creates sound installations and performances, and collects field recordings. He is interested in harmony, time, silence, chance, representation and transcription. E. Vilsons studied at the Institute of Sonology at the Royal Conservatoire in The Hague. His master's research project “Well-Structured Vocalizations: An Attempt To Imitate Birdsong” was awarded the Konrad Boehmer Foundation Prize in 2020.

Recorded live at the Andrew Stewart Cinema, Gilmorehill, Glasgow, 11th June, 2026. Biography: Cara Tolmie spends much of her time oscillating between contexts as a vocalist, visual artist, performer, pedagogue and researcher. Her works have been performed and exhibited widely at art galleries, music festivals, biennials, conferences and in the public space – both as solo presentations and collaborative projects. Her practice at large investigates the complexity of the bind between the voice and body - of how voice can traverse internal and external realities of both the sounder and listener and how it can research various qualities of embodiment, both pleasurable and disorienting. Within this she often explores performative techniques that dis/reorient the listening relationship between the singer and their audience through live uses of defamiliarised, mesmeric and repetitive vocalisation. This investigation also extends into expanded installations that include large-scale textiles and sounding metal sculptures. In these installations, such forms create integrated listening architectures that shape how voice resonates through space, inviting audiences to encounter sound not only as performance but as a material, sensorial and spatial experience. Cara is currently finishing a PhD in Critical Sonic Practice at Konstfack, Stockholm titled ‘Internal Singing - Sounding Through Vocalbody Disorientation’. She collaborates regularly with Rian Treanor, Stine Janvin, Susanna Marcus Jablonski, Em Silén and Julia Giertz. https://www.instagram.com/cara.tolmie vixnde - Derivations of the Insula - or, I came here to isolate, solace found me. vixnde - Derivations of the Insula - or, I came here to isolate, solace found me. 16 September 2026 12:30 pm - 1:00 pm insula (n.) Latin, literally "an island" (also, in ancient Rome, "a block of buildings"); see isle. In anatomical use, the notion is "detached or standing out by itself." (etymonline.com). In June 2026, artist Viana Afoumou (vixnde) was sent to Scotland by Rotterdam-based Radio WORM to spend a week in Cove Park and to make a radio piece for Radiophrenia. Upon arrival, she disconnected her pink phone line (see bio), leaving her audience with an online voicemail box and the question: How do you isolate yourself in a hyper-connected society? Fascinated in her youth by the tales of isolated adventurers, such as “The Consolations of the Forest” (Sylvain Tesson), “Into the Wild” (John Krakauer/Sean Penn), “The Call of the Wild” (Jack London), or “Walden, or life in the woods” (Henry David Thoreau), she came to Cove Park with a fantasy: Exploring new depths within herself through isolation, detached from the rest of the world, so to say “lost” in nature. Yet, she realised soon enough she would not be alone there. Not only was she sharing the space with other artists: Writer and producer Kate Bowen, visual artists Omid Asadi and Elham Rafiei, Roy Boswell, Maeva Totolehibe, Hormi Chen, artist and photographer Kate Bellanger and artist Caroline Galderisi. She also met all sorts of other residents among the different animal, vegetal, and organic species inhabiting the area. What does it mean to “isolate”, when being a part of, and surrounded by, ecosystems? “Life is a mystery. Everyone must stand alone. I hear you call my name! And it feels like…” (Madonna, Like a Prayer). Is this what solace feels like? Bio: Having been told since a teenager that her voice could sooth a stallion in heat, vixnde decided to take her talents seriously and to use them for the common good. In “Le Téléphone Rose”, your calls and voice messages (0909 - 7777 777, €0,15/minute) become an integral part of the radio show – streamed on Radio WORM and Operator Radio, two Rotterdam-based radio stations. Le Téléphone Rose is also a research project, questioning how we connect to each other in the midst of social media, and the (taboo) role of sex work in this search for connection. vixnde: pronounced viande [vjɑ̃d], meaning “meat” in French is the product of a lifetime by Brussels-born singer-songwriter Viana Afoumou. This neologism and analogy crystallises the discrepancies she experiences as a female artist; having realized that, to be a part of the music industry, she would have to brand, package and sell herself, all-the-while staying “authentic” and presenting original work. She decided to play with these contradictions, by becoming her own product. Her genre, Raw Pop, is a wink to the extreme categorisation of music, a pun to raw meat, and a reference to her sound. “Suddenly, I was surrounded by horses. I sat by the water to refresh my feet, then I laid down and I closed my eyes. After a few minutes, one of them came by and sniffed my nose. I was a bit scared but I stayed still. The horse was whispering a song”. - vixnde https://vixnde-com.l.ink/ https://www.instagram.com/vixnde/ Radiophrenia Shorts 28A Radiophrenia Shorts 28A 16 September 2026 1:00 pm - 1:30 pm 1 (CWxWC) - countermapping the ecotone (15:00) 2 Cécile Lartigau & Andreas O. Hirsch - Horloge cassée (12:50) 1) (CWxWC) - countermapping the ecotone ‘countermapping the ecotone’ weaves together three landscapes, incorporating spoken word with field recordings from the unique ecotone at Cley on the North Norfolk coast, where vegetated shingle beach meets salt marshes; the port at King’s Lynn; and chalk pits in Cambridgeshire, to challenge nativist, border-centric conceptions of land, environment, and power. Structured around three proverbs from Arabic, Sudanese, and Greek traditions that suggest what the sea can teach us about cyclical and linear patterns of time, connection, and community, ‘countermapping the ecotone’ explores the environmental and postcolonial significance of ecotones, ‘contact zones’ where biomes meet. This sonic act of countermapping aims to reframe borders and imagined differences in the face of techno-fascism, anti-migrant rhetoric, and climate denial. Populated by the seen, heard, invisible, inaudible, and our imaginaries, the work muses on human and more-than-human movement and migration on our shores and at other contested and destabilised sites around the world. (CWxWC) is the collaborative project of artists, educators, and activists, Dr Cecilia Wee and William Crosby. Their work is concerned with how image, text, and sound move and operate between communities and the ecological, between the human and more-than-human, to conjure conditions under which critical, expansive, respons-able, decolonial listening can become embedded into everyday practices of coming together. Dr Cecilia Wee is Tutor at the School of Communication, Royal College of Art. William Crosby is lecturer in music, sound, and media at Anglia Ruskin University, and PhD student at Creative Research in Sound Arts Practice, University of the Arts, London. IG @_CWxWC 2) Cécile Lartigau & Andreas O. Hirsch - Horloge cassée Horloge cassée is an excerpt from a program recently developed by Lartigau & Hirsch for their first concert in January 2026, marking the beginning of their new collaboration, in which they bring together two rare instruments: the Ondes Martenot and the Electrified Palm Leaf. The Ondes Martenot is a historic electronic instrument from the 1920s that is inherently monophonic and combines the world of early sound synthesis with the possibilities of a string instrument such as the cello. The Electrified Palm Leaf is an electroacoustic instrument with a warm, woody character, developed by Andreas O. Hirsch himself, offering a whole range of possibilities between abstract noises, rhythmic figures, and evocative soundscapes. Horloge cassé takes up the image of a broken clock and develops into a work in its own right, moving towards gentle, drone-like textures and signals. A rare ondist with a singular path, Cécile Lartigau positions her work at the crossroads of contemporary music, experimental improvisation, and the great orchestral repertoire. She has appeared alongside prestigious ensembles including the Vienna Philharmonic, Boston Symphony Orchestra, Berlin Philharmonic, among others. Andreas O. Hirsch is a musician, visual artist and producer. With his homemade instruments and the use of effects pedals, he creates a playful space between electro-acoustics, experimental electronics, downbeat and non-Western influences. Hirsch is one third of the trio The Knob, The Finger & The It and runs makiphon, a label for experimental music. https://www.cecileondesmartenot.com https://www.instagram.com/cecilelartigau_onde https://hirschonhirsch.com https://andreasoskarhirsch.bandcamp.com https://makiphon.de Radiophrenia Shorts 28B Radiophrenia Shorts 28B 16 September 2026 1:30 pm - 2:00 pm 1 Heather Warren-Crow - Audio Evidence of Indefinite Universal Supplication Breakfast (12:00) 2 Ivan Pisino - Beyond the Surface (14:00) 3 jonesy jones - woolf worldings (1:14) 4 Junchang Zhang - It May Contain Something (3:52) 1) Heather Warren-Crow - Audio Evidence of Indefinite Universal Supplication Breakfast Audio Evidence of Indefinite Universal Supplication Breakfast is an audio performance in which I recorded the intimate sounds of eating pancakes and sausage and drinking coffee while reciting the proverb "the voice of the people is the voice of God." A translation of the Latin vox populi, vox dei, the statement is contentious; as 8th century deacon Alcuin of York writes, "And those people should not be listened to who keep saying the voice of the people is the voice of God, since the riotousness of the crowd is always very close to madness." This phrase is particularly resonant in light of our fraught political climate (especially precarious in Texas) as well as the use of data mining techniques to extract the voice of the people from social media. But, which people? Whose voice? Radio, given its longstanding use for political purposes, is the perfect medium for this recording. Heather Warren-Crow is an artist and writer based in Texas in the US. Her work across performance art, sound art, video art, and experimental film foregrounds the voice and plays with sound-image relations. She has exhibited in galleries and in performance spaces, on screens and on stages, in Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, El Salvador, India, Japan, Mexico, Tanzania, Taiwan, Trinidad and Tobago, and across Europe and the United States. Recent exhibitions include London Experimental, Venice Under the Stars, the International Kansk Video Festival in Siberia, and the New York City Independent Film Festival. 2) Ivan Pisino - Beyond the Surface In the Anthropocene era, where the all-powerful human being positions himself as supreme, erasing all other life forms, this piece brings together different levels of narrative, worlds that focus precisely on the invisible or on that which is made invisible. In this biocentric dimension, there are frequencies that we have learned to ignore. These frequencies do not communicate human meaning; they are simply evidence of life happening, in the form of guttural, expressionless sounds and telluric movements. It is a dimension that invites us to be listeners rather than narrators. Composer, researcher and experimental performer. His work has developed in the field of electroacoustic music, including acousmatic compositions, experimental performances with live electronics, collaborations with film and theatre, soundscapes and installations. His main interest is the manipulation of ‘sound objects’ through the design of generative algorithmic systems and graphic sequencers that create possible worlds. https://ivanpisino1.bandcamp.com/ https://soundcloud.com/naiv40 3) jonesy jones - woolf worldings old memory hits a ghost artery sparking a l c h e m y This is the first dive in to the instinctive otherness of the expansive worldings of sounds.

Seth Scott - Points of Articulation: Episode 1 Seth Scott - Points of Articulation: Episode 1 16 September 2026 2:00 pm - 2:20 pm Friar Bacon is trying to make a statue speak. Alone with his books, machines and a patchy understanding of the human anatomy, he sets out on an arduous quest to synthesise the human voice. As he traverses the deep history of speech science, his experiments grow unstable, feverish and strange. Points of Articulation is an experimental radio drama exploring the politics and poetics of synthesised speech. Based on an Elizabethan stage play about a scholar who makes a pact with the devil to make a brass statue speak, the piece explores a history of speaking machines and our changing attitudes towards them. Artist bio: Seth Scott is a sound designer and composer who uses programming, writing, audio recording, and musical performance to explore the manifold relationships between sound and technology. His work takes a range of forms, including fixed media and concert music, sound installations, interactive mobile apps and performances. Seth’s work has been exhibited across the UK in venues including the Barbican Centre, Serpentine Gallery, Bloomberg Space, and BBC Maida Vale. He works regularly with visual and mixed-media artists, producing sound and music for films and installations which have been shown in galleries and film festivals worldwide.

It explores the places of sirenaje, which, according to Andean cosmovision, are those springs where the resonance of sound between stone and water reverberates the vibration of nature. Tata of the waters, ambivalent, polymorphic, who dwells in the rains, streams, springs, rivers and is master of music, for whom do you dance? For whom do you play? Artist bio: I was born in Santiago, Chile (1982), but grew up in Arica, a northern border city, a cultural crossroads between Chile, Peru, and Bolivia. There I experienced, often without knowing it, deeply significant processes for the social fabric of Abya Yala: rural-urban migration, acculturation, structural violence, and more recently, a revitalization of ancestral knowledge that today questions from a practical and situated search: how to regenerate that knowledge and turn it into action? How to embody a cosmopraxis?

La Pesch takes the listener on a journey that starts quietly with footsteps on snow approaching landscapes of ice. Between their ears listeners travel from the Arctic, to glaciers that slowly melt, cracking, dripping, becoming streams and rivers that lead into the deep sea following wales and dolphins, shrimps, corals, into a kelp forest and towards the shore. By boat the trip continues to shooting geysirs until steam boats disappear in the distance and listeners are slowly washed ashore. The deep listening experience leaves space for the audience to immerse themselves, let thoughts drift, connect to their own ocean. States of aggregation change, connecting with the bodies through soundscapes and monotonous, slowly forming rhythms that may synchronise the breath and movements of the bodies with the water soundscape. What kind of state is water? Artist bio: La Pesch studied Anthropology, Political Sciences, and Philosophy. She was trained as voice artist by Alexis Krüger, learnt sound art from Chris Watson, Hans Peter Kuhn, Christina Kubisch and others. She works as sound and voice artist, author, director, and curator in the fields of radio, composition, installation, performance, and the walking arts. She works with high-quality field recordings, voice impro, experiments, and interviews. Her works oscillate between narrative and purely sound-based with strong fascination for the thin borderline between fiction and reality. She sets in scene encounters and creates contact points in dialogue.

It is, without a doubt, my most personal musical statement to date. Somehow, it encapsulates the emotions, experiences, and states of mind that have accompanied me over the past several years – joys, anxieties, and sorrows alike. When I began the first recordings for this piece back in 2018, the world around me felt far more stable, secure, and calm. Yet, I couldn’t shake the feeling that something was looming – something that would radically alter the order of things, that would mark the end of the world as we knew it and had grown used to. As if we were all living in those final seconds before the storm. Part 1: When Yesterday Was Tomorrow Part 2: The Loudest Silence Part 3: Mirrored in the Eyes of Prometheus Part 4: Stars Darker Than Black Artist bio: Dariusz Mazurowski is a Polish electroacoustic music composer, born and currently residing in Gdansk. While the majority of his compositional activity has focused on acousmatic works, he has also composed instrumental music in conjunction with electronics. His works combine analog instruments with the sonic potential of digital technology and computers. His compositional approach is dynamic in that it involves live electronics and live sound diffusion across multi-speaker systems. Mazurowski’s music has been broadcast by various radio stations all over the world, and he has performed at festivals and other events in Europe, North America, South America and Asia.

The work is based on footage material (atomic bomb detonation, extracts from eye witness, reports on the effects of the bombing) elaborated in counterpoints and, distortions and multiple exposures by mean of hand-print processes and other hand-on-film techniques. All sounds on each section are printed on one single film stripe and there is no further digital manipulation of the sound. The multiple sounds are the result of the multiple exposure and other printing distortions. The devastating effect of the atomic bomb on human bodies and the printing techniques on film resonate with each other, in both light, temperature, exposure, play a vital role. This work is an opportunity to reflect on the traumatic effects of the large scale devastation brought by wars. Artist bio: I am a composer, filmmaker, interdisciplinary artist based in Amsterdam. Currently, I integrate analog film in my performances and works, using film as a living creature. My narrative revolves around a nihilistic and existential interpretation of the individual, devoid of their past, identity, belonging, and memory. My artistic practice delves into the concept of mere existence, contrasting with the idea of existing in relation to something or someone. I investigate alternative forms of existing and expanding our perception of what we consider a living being, to find new unexpected connection with our world, from its finest particle to its whole.

Working between Chicago and Glasgow, from two differently lived experiences of womanhood, we use radio as a site of modulation rather than fixed transmission. Through distortion, interruption, repetition, and bleed, the voice becomes unstable, never singular, never fully owned. Narrative dissolves into texture. Presence becomes patchwork. What emerges is a feminine vocal field shaped by dis-junction and interference rather than coherence. Artist bios: Sarah Lutkenhaus is a sound artist and designer whose work explores interiority, contradiction, and systems of memory. Through performance, archives, and voice, she investigates one’s position within networks of bodies and histories, creating subtle, textural works that resist resolution.

Nour Sokhon - A Foreign Silence Nour Sokhon - A Foreign Silence 16 September 2026 6:00 pm - 6:30 pm A Foreign Silence is an electroacoustic radiophonic work composed from voice, field recordings, and archival sound collected across Beirut, Palestine, and Vienna between 2023 and 2026. The composition draws primarily on material gathered through Do You Hear The Silence?, a participatory walk-in listening installation developed in collaboration with Joanna Zabielska during Sokhon's 2025 residency with philomena+ and kulturen in bewegung in Vienna. Rooted in experiences of being silenced, A Foreign Silence approaches silence through memory, testimony, and lived experience. Drawing on archival sound, field recordings, and voices gathered through interviews, the work reflects on what emerges when speech is interrupted or withheld. It asks: what do we associate with the absence of sound? What can silence reveal? And how are experiences of silence shaped by geopolitical realities?

The resulting audio environment is one where the malleability and subjectivity of perception is explored in multiple ways. Recognizable sounds are manipulated into illegible noise, and back again. Societal, political, and cultural conventions are subverted and rearranged conceptually, through language, to expose the often arbitrary structures upholding them. Synthesized audio is worked into textures and rhythms that attempt to invoke cascading falls, dripping faucets, boiling kettles. Artist bio: Nathanael Jones is an Afro-Caribbean Canadian writer and artist. Born in Montreal/Tiohtià:ke, he holds degrees from NSCAD University and the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Jones is the author of the full-length poetry collection Aqueous (The Porcupine’s Quill, 2024) and three chapbooks, Category Five Hurricane Alexa (Gordon Hill, 2025), La Poésie Caraïbe (Damask Press, 2018), and ATG (HAIR CLUB, 2016). His work has been exhibited and performed across North America and the United Kingdom, and has been published in DREGINALD, Ghost Proposal, Aurochs, Heavy Feather Review, TIMBER, Action, Spectacle, and Poetry Magazine.

The piece is composed from the sounds of analogue radio transmissions recorded in various locations in Bristol, UK, which have then been piped through a specific collection of devices salvaged from various media players with some link to music and radio. The devices are: a cassette player (which plays a tape loop of recorded radio sound), a MiniDisc player, a CD player and a record turntable motor, which in turn drives a second motor which becomes a dynamo. The piece was then further developed for live performance and first presented in the You And Me Festival in Beijing, China in August 2025. Artist bio: Since 2005 Simon Whetham has developed a practice of working with sonic activity, often utilising environmental sound, employing a variety of methods and techniques to obtain unnoticed, obscured sonic phenomena. His artistic investigations have led him to work increasingly in multi-disciplinary projects, especially since focusing on repurposing obsolete technology from 2018. He performs and exhibits internationally, participating in Klangmanifeste (AT); You and Me Festival (CN); Chiba City Art Triennale (JP); Intermediale (PL); WIP Festival (CY); Sofia Underground (BG); Simultan (RO); WeSA Festival (KR); Sonica (SI), phonon~festival (CZ), Fresh Winds Biennale (IS), Nakanojo Biennale (JP), Tsonami Festival (CL) and Madeiradig (PT).

As researchers in sound and media studies, we are interested in interrogating the concept and aesthetics of ‘ambience’ as they are applied in relation to digital infrastructures and urban spaces, and in their resonances with ambient music, sound and listening. In sharing these recordings, we invite a listening with the materiality of the data centre, which stands as an intensely compressed site of power in the current era of surveillance capitalism, and yet as an externally quiet, concealed space, hiding in plain sight in the heart of urban centres. Artist bios: Iain Findlay-Walsh (he/him) is a sound artist, musician, researcher and Lecturer (Assistant Professor) in Music at the University of Glasgow. His research employs sound-based and autoethnographic methods for the study of sonic experience. Rebecca Noone (she/her) is a Lecturer (Assistant Professor) in Digital Media and Information Studies in the School of Humanities, University of Glasgow. She studies the banalities of digital culture.

Sistermanns - "raumtief" 16 September 2026 8:00 pm - 8:40 pm Broadcast: February 26th, 2026, Kunst zum Hören (Kunstradio) "Listening to the complete soundscape of bustling Manhattan. Standing in the midst of the reality of a boundless reverberation chamber in Berlin. Hearing the ambient sound sung within the narrow cavity of a steel beam in an underground New York subway station as the train pulls in. Let the spatial image emerge from film scenes of The Third Man* set in Vienna's sewer system. And follow the 437-meter-long and 20-meter-wide resonances—acting as a carrier medium within the cavity—as they carry the sound of car traffic and streetcars from one side of the Rhine to the other within the cavity of Cologne’s Deutz Bridge. Spaces meet, clash, and push against one another in the inner ear—sometimes urgently, sometimes overlapping. The stereo listening space itself is understood as the ultimate abstraction of an otherwise 360°-surrounding, long-familiar sonic reality.” Listening means scanning space with one’s ears, and according to artist Johannes S. Sistermanns, this is an active process. In the spaces surrounding us, there are distant sound events, a diffuse murmur. But there are also sounds very close by that have—or even require—a vast space behind them to capture their reverberation and bring it back to our ears. He calls his radiophonic exploration of spaces “raumtief.” The following locations are featured: - Manhattan, as heard from the 69th floor of Rockefeller Center - Oratunga Station in the Australian Outback - The Vienna's underground canal system beneath the covered Wien river, featuring the voice of Sistermanns (Thanks to the staff of the Dritter Mann tour!) - A sound chamber beneath the Deutz Rhine Bridge in Cologne, over 400 meters long and 20 meters wide - The reverberation chamber at SIM Studios in Berlin, also featuring its own unique acoustic character - A stone artifact in Lärbro on the Swedish island of Gotland, believed to have been used in cult rituals - A choir rehearsal at St. Severin Church in Cologne - A pilgrimage church in Neviges in the Ruhr region https://oe1.orf.at/programm/20260226/823462/Raumbilder MME dUO - wife archive AM I AI reboot MME dUO - wife archive AM I AI reboot 16 September 2026 8:40 pm - 9:00 pm updaten tracken alignen what an infinite jest!

Using concrete recordings of an architectural vestige of colonial Mexico—los zaguanes (sturdy wooden doors that once were the passageway from street to courtyards)—it amplifies the passage of time as their surroundings give way to industrial change. All recordings were made in Tenango del Valle, Estado de México, in July 2025. Sofía Matus Cancino is a Mexican artist based in Phoenix, Arizona, exploring the convergences of visual music, embodied sound, and algorithmic composition. Her work proposes environments shaped by the ominous, the intimate, and the displacements of contemporary life. Her work has been featured at SEAMUS, ARS Electronica, Visiones Sonoras, PRISMS, SPLICE, among others, and performed by ensembles including Bent Frequency, ACME, and the Low Frequency Trio. Matus has received awards in Data Sonification, Composition, and Artistic Career Achievement. She is currently developing her first EP under the Jóvenes Creadores Fellowship from Mexico’s National Fund for Culture and the Arts (FONCA). https://www.sofiamatusc.com/ https://www.instagram.com/sofia.matus 2) Catherine Monahon and Lizzy de Lise - Conversations with the Material World: Glass Rope We commissioned three sculptures from our community with the prompt to create an object that honors the material and the beloved process of the maker. Visitors listen in groups, guided through narration to touch the sculptures together; soundscapes include details, a story, found sound and music. This installation debuted at the Smithsonian’s Hirschhorn Museum & Sculpture Garden as an interactive experience, where visitors could touch and explore each material, guided by our narration and accompanying soundscape. Glass explores fluidity and memory. We commissioned the glass rope from Deborah Cseresko, a glassblower in Brooklyn, NY. We interviewed them for our podcast, Material Feels, and visited the studio while this piece was created to capture footage of the process. The soundscape incorporates elements of the material and the maker: reflective, reverberating, otherworldly, nonbinary and queer. The narration explores memory, transformation and magical realism. Catherine is an audio storyteller, arts facilitator and small business owner based in Oakland, California, USA. Using the intimacy of sound and the sensuality of materials, they create experiences that invite us to connect with our creative impulses, our bodies, and our spirits. Lizzy is an interdisciplinary, gender queer artist and performer who makes music for film/dance/theater/podcast, based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA. Their writing centers queer joy, embraces the inevitability of grief, and makes you shake your 🍑. Material Feels is a podcast exploring the intimate relationship between creatives and the material world, narrated by Catherine, scored by Lizzy. https://materialfeels.podbean.com/ https://www.lizdelise.com/ https://www.cxmproductions.com/ 3) Mark Taylor - Climate Change Music #1 Monthly Global Temperatures 1850-2024 The piece is a data sonification project that maps monthly temperatures from 1850 to 2024 to musical notes. A low note track indicates the passing of time. The trend of the notes goes higher and higher over the nearly two century time period and accelerates as we near the present day. Voiceover inserts explain the note mapping and provide environmental context for the music. I have been a fine art photographer since the early '80s. I've exhibited photographs, installations and sound sculptures across Southern Arizona. Since 2020 I've been releasing electronic music as Whale of Noise. I also curate a streaming radio show of electronic, ambient and experimental music called All Sound is Music, available on YouTube and streaming on kpbj.fm Instagram @mark801 https://casualmatters.com/ https://whaleofnoise.com/ and https://whaleofnoise.bandcamp.com/ Radiophrenia Shorts 44 B Radiophrenia Shorts 44 B 16 September 2026 10:30 pm - 11:00 pm 1 Peter Brooks - On The Edge Of The Land (14:27) 2 Thanos Chrysakis - Meridian Shelter (14:20) 3 Reuben the Organizer - A vida é sonho / Life is a dream (Waly Salomão remix) (1:21) 1) Peter Brooks - On The Edge Of The Land rising tide, gently lapping at rocks, with the quieter general sound of the sea in the background. The recording contains many bird sounds – both land-based such as Blackbirds (Turdus merula) and sea-based such as Oystercatchers (Haematopus ostralegus). Recorded at dusk as the birds chorus before nightfall. A completely untreated recording made at the edge of the beach, with the equipment mounted on a tripod standing on rocks as the sea level rose around them with the rising tide. Recorded at Tarskavaig, Isle of Skye, UK. Peter Brooks is a Sheffield UK-based musician, sound artist and documentary-maker. He works using conventional musical instruments, synthesisers and other electronic instruments, field recordings and other found sounds. He also performs and produces under the name UpperHurst. 2) Thanos Chrysakis - Meridian Shelter Exploring the depths and boundaries of the psyche through seven compelling electroacoustic compositions, Greek composer Thanos Chrysakis delivers a deeply psychedelic, mysterious, and immersive sonic journey, masterfully blending electronic textures and acousmatic elements that resonate within the listener's consciousness, psyche, and imagination — a vivid reflection on complex inner landscapes. Thanos Chrysakis is a Greek composer, musician, producer and sound-artist focused on electronic and contemporary music, improvisation, and electro-acoustic music. https://eternalmusicprojects.bandcamp.com/ 3) Reuben the Organizer - A vida é sonho / Life is a dream (Waly Salomão remix) Sound poetry piece based on a voice recording of Brazilian poet Waly Salomão (1943 - 2003), extracted from an interview in which he states, "Enough of this nonsense that the dream is over! Life is a dream! Life is a dream! Life is a dream!" A crucial figure in Brazilian counterculture, Waly Salomão was the son of Syrian migrants who developed a unique voice in literature and popular music. Here he addresses the famous John Lennon lyrics ("the dream is over") while quoting Spanish poet and playwright Pedro Calderón de la Barca ("La vida es sueño", or "Life is a dream", is the title of one of his plays), in a life-affirming protest. My own voice is used to create a phonetic riff, informed by an idea of poetry as rhythm and non-semantic verbal pleasure. The piece was presented at the Irradia radio-art festival in Brazil, 2025, and remains unpublished. Reuben the Organizer is the moniker of Brazilian electronic musician, sound poet, and multimedia artist Reuben da Rocha. Dreamlike states, hypnotic visions, and feelings of cosmic belonging are fundamental themes in his work. His output spans live performance, multimedia settings, free improvisation, radio art, and composition. https://reubentheorganizer.bandcamp.com https://www.instagram.com/reubentheorganizer/ Russell Walker and Rebecca Mahay - Have You Ever Seen Me In The Spring?

This particular episode imagines fragmented weather reports for the US prairie states as they weave through a narrative about a municipal election, ecological collapse and the battle for the very soul of the family unit - featuring intrigue. Artist bios: Roy Werner is a Los Angeles based musician and composer. In his 15+ years engaged with the electronic music community he has crafted tangled soundscapes as G.S. Sultan and under his own name. He continues to be drawn deeper by sound’s unique capacity for the transmission of psychic atmosphere and SOUL. Mac Katter is an artist and writer. He lives in New York State.

"I stood here, and saw before me the unutterable, the unthinkable gulf that yawns profound between two worlds, the world of matter and the world of spirit; I saw the great empty deep stretch dim before me, and in that instant a bridge of light leapt from the earth to the unknown shore, and the abyss was spanned.” Arthur Machen With additional elements by Cecily Devine and Xanthe Horner Artist bio: The Spectral Transmissions Research Unit is a collaboration between Ben Branagan and Luke Pendrell dedicated to constructing, receiving and transmitting Spectral Assemblages, Producing both temporal artefacts and modes of experimental cognitive practice. Each transmission develops through Spectral Assemblage, where fragments of everyday life gather in stochastic accumulators of latent potential, forming temporary constellations of association and alignment. These fluid states of indeterminism generate unexpected configurations, Denkinstruments enabling alternative modes of thought and meaning. Before transmission, assemblages are collapsed or fixed. Broken symmetries crystallize into temporal moments. Fluidity is sacrificed to enable closer inspection of the encoded relations and emergent entanglements.

From 1952 to 1989, 70,000 nuclear triggers were assembled by hand, polluting the surrounding grasslands with plutonium that persists across a half-life of 24,000 years. Through accounts given by whistleblowers James Stone, Jacque Brever, and activist Daniel Ellsberg, the work plots Rocky Flat’s violence onto bodies, ideology and environment. Part I examines worker disablement and safety abuses, Part II probes nuclear proliferation debates against the psychosis of obliteration and Part III considers the AEC's 1972 buffer zone proposal as Denver's population swelled. Combining oral histories, field recordings, and a toxic alpine desert score, No Longer a Horizon traces how 'wastelanding' renders landscapes and communities expendable. Artist bio: Charles Ballas and Conor Walker run the Obsolete Future cassette imprint. Their friendship began in a Colorado basement radio station, producing the outer jazz programme Spirits Rejoice! As Ouse, they released The Imitation of Nature (Somatic, 2017) and the compilation Bladder by the Light (Obsolete Future, 2022). Charles' projects include Dyad, Wolf Eyes, Royal Trux and Howling Hex. Conor is an AV archivist, field recordist and broadcaster, currently transmitting Member Ship Card on Radio Buena Vida. Previous collaborations include Walker Harris English with Thor Harris and Lawrence English, and Long Meg & Her Daughters.

The work that I put together is a mixture of field recordings that I took, and recordings of the poetry that Seth wrote on the journey. Without knowing Sofyane, and having a connection with him through the warmth of our friendship and love of desert blues, this sound piece would not exist. A recording of him singing and playing the guitar is part of the piece. Seth says, 'this is our ode to Morocco', from the winding medinas of Marrakech, and Jamaâ El-Fna, to the vibrations of sound in the burning dunes of The Sahara. A celebration of music, craft, tradition and the elemental gathering and movement of people under the sky. With love, to Morocco. Artist bios: Ali sha Sha is a Glasgow based songwriter, and guitarist, who's music calls attention to the themes of ecology, importance of community and friendship and the existential. Seth Hannah is a Glasgow based romantic, absurdist, poet and artist, whose work explores the themes of love, memory, grief and mental illness. Sofyane El Yazioui, is a Zagora based musician and painter. He gathers meteorites from the desert, and plays the traditional music of Zagora. His playing style is sensitive and complex, and I hope to help him release some music.

The collective comes together on the first Friday of every month at 3:02pm ET using custom-made software. Some sessions don't have a description and the one on October 3th doesn't have even a title. However, some have a more detail description as in The Spiral: The record groove or a strip of tape moves forward by circling, slipping into another layer each time. That coiling motion echoes how time forms paths that don’t quite repeat. The spiral frames the way patterns return at different scales, from tiny biological curves to movements that shift light, air, and weather. A shared structure keeps resurfacing and shows how things grow and reorganize, how memory drifts, and how repetition comes back slightly off axis, opening another turn. Artist bio: The Conduction Series is a collaborative live radio broadcast produced by sound and transmission artists across the Americas on Wave Farm’s WGXC 90.7-FM Radio for Open Ears in New York’s Upper Hudson Valley. Artists names are: Betsey Biggs, August Black, Peter Courtemanche, Florencia Curci, Jeff Economy, Anna Friz, Jimmy Garver, Maximilian Goldfarb, Virginia Mantinian, and Rodrigo Ríos Zunino.

In a format similar to radio, the work was transmitted in real time to 15 separate sets of wireless headphones that accompanied programmed lights in the room. It is told in a format that is directly speaking to the listener to create both an intimate experience for them, as well as a collective experience for everyone listening. The essay is a sonic reflection of my personal dealings with grief and how philosophical and ecological metaphors act as a salve to a common experience we all have or will have to endure through loss. Paige Alice Naylor is a Chicago-based experimental vocalist, sound artist, technologist and educator. Through sound-making and performance, she investigates the dissolution of time, the breakdown of language, and themes of death & rebirth by way of multichannel sound installation, electronically processed voice, tape loops, handmade electronics, field recordings, text scores, poetry, and repetitive, layered production. Her direct and interpersonal approach creates live sonic environments which feel vulnerable and intimate. Her work has been featured in the Wire, NPR, Longform Editions, Sixty Inches from Center, Newcity Art, sun-13, WHURK Magazine, and the Documentarian. https://www.paigenaylor.art/ https://www.instagram.com/paigealicenaylor/ 3) Slyn - A calling from the silver seas This piece explores hydrofeminist ecological theory, using ambient pads, hydrophone recordings and vocals, it aims to submerge the listener into a watery world through sound. Starting off calm and serene, the piece opens to clear, calm waters, bringing the listener under the shoreline into the wonders underneath creating a sense of beauty, peace and acceptance. As the piece progresses into the darker, deeper waters a sense of tension and pull is created, aiming to represent the anthropogenic forces we are putting on these ecosystems. Overexploitation, pollution and eutrophication, the piece explores how the water may feel, aiming to bring the listener into this world through emotion. Ending with a sense of urgency but releasing into hope, the piece aims to create a sense of reflection and feeling around our watery homes, using sound as a vessel for experience. An ode to the ocean which I love. slyn is a sound artist and live performer whose work sits at the intersection of experimental music, sound art, and marine ecology. Drawing on her background in marine biology and frustrations between the disconnect between academics and the arts, her practice aims to explore listening as both a scientific and emotional act. Her productions often use hydrophones, field recordings, vocals, and textured electronic composition, creating fluid soundscapes. slyn co-founded @gravitypleasure a label inspired by hydrofeminism and queer ecology, supporting artists in experimental electronics. She also co-runs @skinny.dipping__, a Glasgow-based event series that highlights women, non-binary, and trans in electronics. https://soundcloud.com/s_l_y_n https://www.instagram.com/_slyn___/ Radiophrenia Shorts 45 B Radiophrenia Shorts 45 B 17 September 2026 7:30 am - 8:00 am 4 Agnija Anča - Ex Somnia (7:13) 5 Vincent Eoppolo - Non e il tempo a passare (6:32) 6 Denim (2:01) 7 Water Feature - Various Birds - false partridge (0:51) 4) Agnija Anča - Ex Somnia A sound piece that takes a well known Latvian lullaby "Aijā žūžū, lāča bērni", supposedly a safe and secure place related to the childhood, and lets it evolve freely, tripping over fears, insecurities and facing the real life. thus marginalizing with a nightmare.

Intuitively made, emotionally driven and trance inducing Ladé is a Scottish Nigerian producer whose work is rooted in abstract, sample-based experimental music. From ambient compositions to footwork and abstract hip-hop, their intuitive, emotional work draws on the Afro-diasporic consciousness, guiding listeners through transcendent Black rhythms and global sonic landscapes. https://linktr.ee/lade444?utm_source=linktree_profile_share&ltsid=fc3f14e4-d9ab-458b-8fe2-e94687739b43 7) Water Feature - Various Birds - false partridge A collection of somewhat convincing birdsong and foley created entirely on a small battery-powered drum machine. Many imaginary and fanciful 'species' including the Pond Bather, Golden Nuthatch and Brown Yipper are featured. A long-form sound collage of many species is the central work, and 'close-ups' are also included. In one sense the project is a sincere tribute to bird identification records and tapes one would find in garden centres in the 90s, of which the artists have a large collection. In another sense it is an uncanny objection to a contemporary relationship with nature that romanticises and objectifies it from a safe distance. The sounds have been sampled in records by other artists, used in an extended arrangement for an installation in the Jardin Des Plantes in Paris, presented with narration by a supposed ornithologist, and are played constantly via an internet radio station. Water Feature is a 'collage band' formed of several contributors, creating utopian, absurd and low-fidelity environmental(ist) music. There is a strong reactionary and naive spirit to the project which aims to replace lifeless, boring, synthetic ambient music with an alternative chaotic, colourful and organic musique concrète. Recording and composition revolves around improvisation with cheap gear, tape-splicing and other uncivilised practices and accidents. 3 records (including Various Birds) have been released through the DIY Morsels label/collective. https://variousbirds.net https://morsels.website https://www.instagram.com/morsels.website/ Radiophrenia Shorts 13A Radiophrenia Shorts 13A 17 September 2026 8:00 am - 8:30 am 1 Lidiia Griaznova and Sergei Komarov -Truth Table (13:12) 2 Radna Rumping - Moving, Repetition (13:52) 1) Lidiia Griaznova and Sergei Komarov -Truth Table Initially, this piece was created as our contribution to the group installation "Phenomenon and Paradoxes of Information Transmission", presented as part of CYFEST: Midpoint at the Yerevan Botanical Garden (Armenia, 2025). This piece born from a long-term interest in radio subcultures, particularly cataloguing of number stations and the 1970s phone-phreak milieu, with specific attention to Evan Doorbell. Sergei’s section is based on generative FM experiments, while Lidiia’s part is constructed using an online version of the speech program SAM for the Commodore C64, combined with modular synthesis improvisations. There is an imagined unidentified number station with endless transmission where the composition evolves from fragmented polyrhythmic textures repeatedly interrupted by coded messages hidden in plain sight. It is not even necessary intended for human hearing. Only the one who recognises the message as addressed to them can fully possess it. But no one prevents eavesdropping and listening. Sergei Komarov is an engineer, sound artist, and curator. He co-founded the band Kurvenschreiber, develops CYLAND MediaArtLab installations as a Max/MSP programmer, and produces independent sound works. He lives and works in Yerevan. Lidiia Griaznova is an artist and designer working across publishing, sound, and media art. Her practice uses sound, archival fragments, and experimental book forms to question dominant constructions of time, space, and the body. She holds an M.A. in Curatorial Studies from Bard College and works between London and Yerevan. Since 2024, she has co-curated the CYLAND Audio Archive and the CYFEST sound program. https://www.instagram.com/depth_dept/ https://www.instagram.com/relational_self/ Release on the CYLAND Audio Archive, CAA-60, a live recording of how the initial installation sounded, where we shared the space with other artists: ceph, Purpurniy Dyadya, Sergei Komarov & Lidiia Griaznova, Nikita Bugaev, and the concept horse.

She has seen that shape before. The expected still strikes unexpectedly. Delayed response. How do you move a feeling? Moving, Repetition (2025) is an audio piece that takes the form of a spontaneously edited collage. A story recorded by Radna Rumping (recalled from memory) describes a group performance and the experience of navigating repeated power dynamics. This narration is interwoven with music by The Raincoats, reworked into loops by Levi Lanser. The composition is framed by quotations from Sara Ahmed’s Living a Feminist Life and Madeline Gins and Arakawa’s Architectural Body, voiced by Angeliki Tzortzakaki and Lorenzo García-Andrade. Radna Rumping is an Amsterdam-based artist, curator and writer. Her practice is relational and collaborative, engaging with public space, experimental archiving, forms of gathering, and conditions of (in)visibility. She is drawn to artistic practices that defy categorisation, with a special interest for performance art. Radio and sonic exploration run as a continuous thread through her work. In 2015 she co-founded Ja Ja Ja Nee Nee Nee, an online radio platform dedicated to the arts. Between 2010-2020 she hosted the radio show Future Vintage at Red Light Radio. https://radna.nl/ @radna Radiophrenia Shorts 13B Radiophrenia Shorts 13B 17 September 2026 8:30 am - 9:00 am 1 Adam Buffington - True Blue (for a hot mess) (12:04) 2 Catherine Clover - City Making Practice (3:09) 3 Miguel Antonio Contreras Hincapie – Akallabêth (18:28) 1) Adam Buffington - True Blue (for a hot mess) True Blue (for a hot mess) originated as a 3-minute track sampled entirely from Calibre Auto Recording discs, and was released by Brighton-based label Chocolate Monk on their compilation Calibre Five in December 2025. This newly extended version excavates the same sources to generate a slowly cascading series of samples that congeal to form a washed-out mesh of jittery pops and oscillating chants. By utilizing a minimal set of material, True Blue (for a hot mess) generates a suspended yet stirring mood. Adam Buffington is a composer and musicologist traversing the boundaries between practitioner and scholar. Specializing in contemporary art and music in Iceland, his research focuses on issues concerning interdisciplinarity, transnationalism, historiography and aesthetics. His artistic practice, rooted in musique concrète and DIY underground aesthetics, is an ongoing exploration of memory and identity’s entanglements with material and sonic culture. His sound work has been released on labels such as Chocolate Monk, Industrial Coast and VEC Audio. Buffington earned a Ph.D. in Musicology from The Ohio State University in 2020, and is currently based in Reykjavik, Iceland. https://adambuffington.com/ https://adambuffington.bandcamp.com/ https://www.instagram.com/adam_buffington/ 2) Catherine Clover - City Making Practice This field recording is an informal participatory voicing based on the songs and languages of five migratory songbirds, the Common Reed Warbler, Spotted Flycatcher, Swift, Chiffchaff and Blackcap that migrate between the capital cities of London, Windhoek, Lilongwe, Lusaka, Dakar and Addis Ababa, all shaped by British and European colonialism. The event took place in the Camley Street Nature Reserve in Kings Cross, London. The workshop was part of Quiet Urgency, a symposium in 2024 organised by Gascia Ouzounian, John Bingham-Hall and Diana Ibáñez López (Soncities x MA Cities, Central St Martins) that considered the need for new frameworks of sonic urbanism that can work with, amongst other urgent urban issues, the more-than-human world and its vitality, without silencing or controlling it. Catherine Clover’s multidisciplinary practice addresses communication through voice, language and the interplay between hearing/listening, seeing/reading. Using field recording, digital imaging and the spoken/written word she explores an expanded approach to language within and across species through a framework of everyday experience, including the use of extant material and found footage. With listening as a key focus and the complexity of the urban as a shared sonic space, the artworks prompt transmission and reception through the fluidity, instability and mobility of voicing and languaging. The artworks are social in nature and frequently involve collaboration with other artists and with audiences. http://www.ciclover.com/main.html 3) Miguel Antonio Contreras Hincapie – Akallabêth "Akallabêth (The Downfall)" is a sound art piece that draws a powerful analogy between the fall of Númenor —the myth of pride and ruin recounted in The Silmarillion— and contemporary socio-natural disasters in Venezuela. The work builds an auditory cartography of the crisis, where the sounds of torrential rains, landslides, and affected communities blend with discourses of power and narratives of geopolitical aggression. This composition creates an immersive atmosphere that investigates the relationship between human greed and extreme climatic phenomena. From a non-hegemonic perspective, the piece invites reflection on the invisible forces —social, political, and environmental— that, acting like a collapsing system, precipitate the fragmentation of territory and memory. Miguel Antonio Contreras Hincapie develops a transmedia artistic practice focused on sound art and expanded poetics. His sculptural research and dual training underpin a critical approach to the body, space, and narrative. His award-winning work unfolds through hybrid strategies, from museum installations to urban interventions. He has participated in international festivals such as Sur Aural, Tsonami, the Encontro Latino-Americano de Arte Sonora, and Punto y Raya. In 2023, he deepened his research through residencies at Lab Productora (Argentina) and Art Session Innopraktika (Russia), exploring intersections between the physical, the digital, and the situated https://machsculptures.com/ https://www.instagram.com/miguelcontrerasescultor/ https://www.facebook.com/miguel.contrerashincapie?locale=es_LA dundee radio club micro commission 1: Olesya Ilenok - via vessel (vol.1) dundee radio club micro commission 1: Olesya Ilenok - via vessel (vol.1) 17 September 2026 9:00 am - 9:30 am “via vessel (vol.1)” is a 30-minute sound work tracing interactions between clay and air across different stages of ceramic making and use. The piece follows air as it is displaced from dry clay when water is poured onto it, released through pores and micro-cavities, and later contained, redirected, and set in motion within fired ceramic vessels. Recordings were made through close contact with clay surfaces, tools, and rotating forms on a pottery wheel, as well as through the movement of air blown into and drawn through vessels of varying shapes and materials. Rather than treating vessels as passive containers, the work approaches them as active mediators that shape, filter, and transform what passes through them. Sound emerges here as a residue of material processes — a trace of pressure, porosity, volume, and movement — unfolding slowly through form. Artist bio: @ilenok.art is an interdisciplinary artist and educator based in Glasgow, working at the intersection of ceramics, sound, media art and spatial installation. Her practice explores urban and natural environments through psychogeography, subjective data collection and embodied sensory methods. She often works with clay, found materials and digital systems to create site-specific installations that investigate collective memory, ecological awareness and non-extractive forms of urban knowledge. Her work has been presented internationally at exhibitions, festivals and biennials, including the Gyeonggi International Ceramic Biennale, The Listening Biennial and Cryptic Nights, and has been supported by Creative Scotland and other cultural organisations. https://www.instagram.com/ilenok.art/ A dundee radio club micro-commission dundee radio club a space for sonic exploration a space for gathering, for listening, for sharing sounds + opening ears https://dundeeradio.club/ dundee radio club micro commission 2: Leyla Hussain - Number 11 dundee radio club micro commission 2: Leyla Hussain - Number 11 17 September 2026 9:30 am - 10:00 am "Number 11" (2026), is about cycles. The transient cycle of hope, loss, grief, acceptance, letting go and hoping again. Produced by Emilia Sanguinetti and some ambient design by Patrick Bews, Leyla Hussain has designed and curated a soundscape that is filled with poetry written during the moments 'in between', exploring the purgatory of contemplation. She has woven in audio clips of field recordings, archival audio from Audre Lorde, Jim Morrison and Mariam Dagga ( إِنَّا لِلَّٰهِ وَإِنَّا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُونَ ). Hussain creates work about the unconscious noise we make when we idle, as the pixels of the world generate, her world being filled with the noise of her big and rambunctious family as a child and now the soft hums of meditation. "Number 11" (2026) is heavily inspired by Ethel Cain, especially her album "Perverts" (2025), Grouper and Aphex Twin. Biography: Leyla Hussain is a siren who works with audio witches and sorcerers to procure ambient soundscapes woven with her words of night and the droning of silence. Hussain has recorded congregations of whale-worshipping cults and interviewed the ghosts of poets past. She makes work that explores the intricacies of relationships, the hum of living and the sonic prayer. She is a blessing in disguise. https://www.instagram.com/leylahussainart/ Produced in collaboration with @emilia_foreverautumn + @ patrickbews.sound A dundee radio club micro-commission dundee radio club a space for sonic exploration a space for gathering, for listening, for sharing sounds + opening ears https://dundeeradio.club/ Lee Patterson - Even a dog Lee Patterson - Even a dog 17 September 2026 10:00 am - 11:00 am An alternative imagining of a soundtrack to Luke Fowler's - 'Being in a Place: A Portrait of Margaret Tait'; Even a dog features interviews with Orcadians living and working in the environment of Mainland, Orkney, along with location recordings and music composed and made by Patterson originally intended for use in the film.

An setup consisting of microphones and horn speakers carressing the treshold of acoústic feedback, revealing the architecture of these spaces, sketching their outlines and amplifying their voice. Artist bio: Amber Meulenijzer investigates the relation between space and sound, using various means like field recording, horn speakers, various synthesizers and sometimes an old Saab 900. Her work always seeks to connect with the context in which it is developed or displayed, interacting with architectural elements and environmental sounds or dynamics, finding the resonant frequencies of different landscapes. She researches moving sound sources in her work Saab Sculptures, a travelling sound system interacting with its surroundings, and works on different installation and performance formats. Looking for the composition in each space, she is inherently an in situ improvisor.

Often utilised by the listener in the liminal space between breakdown and breakthrough as the sonic frequencies promise to increase abundance, romance, transformation, and sometimes even…telepathy. A passive technology to becoming your best self. Also pulling inspiration from Will Power’s self-help concept album, “Dancing For Mental Health”, SUB-liminal blends layered vocals, synthesised sounds and textured repetition to blur the lines between suggestion and belief. What will you do when all your dreams come true? *Please note no subliminal messages will be in the final audio/no listeners will be hypnotised.

The catalogue is made up of several dozen sound recordings featuring squeaky, creaking, screeching or otherwise noisy swing sets. The reasons for swing noise are various – loose connections or fasteners, aging of the materials used in the construction of the swing, weather conditions affecting them, as well as the load and overload to which the swing is subjected. Although most of the recordings feature swings that only minimally differ in terms of mechanics, construction and materials used, their noise is never identical, providing a sound testimony to the environment in which the swing is placed. Swinging, photos – Ada Ruszkiewicz; Idea, recording, editing and mixing – Ernests Vilsons. Artist bio: Ernests Vilsons is a Latvian composer living in Rīga. He writes music for acoustic instruments and electronic means, creates sound installations and performances, and collects field recordings. He is interested in harmony, time, silence, chance, representation and transcription. E. Vilsons studied at the Institute of Sonology at the Royal Conservatoire in The Hague. His master's research project “Well-Structured Vocalizations: An Attempt To Imitate Birdsong” was awarded the Konrad Boehmer Foundation Prize in 2020.

Landscapes of voices that are not so audible in the foreground of our ability to listen but are more present as some kind of shadows - it's not only that we try to hide those voices (un)consciously, but more as if they are so present that we don't perceive them anymore. Or as if they would be so obvious to our everyday sound landscapes, that we don’t hear them… could be also as if they don’t deserve our attention anymore. On the other hand when speaking of voice we always seem to think of the most obvious dimension - the audio dimension… In a Slovene language there exists a word “tišina” that means silence, but there is also a word “molk” that at least English translation doesn’t have an equal word for it - the closest would be “remaining silent”. In German there is die Stille for silence and das Schweigen for “molk”. But in French, Spanish, Italian language the distinction between the silence and molk / das Scweigen doesn’t exist.And “molk” / “das Schweigen” belong to voice - so there is a voice or words to say or need to explain something, but for various reasons one “remains silent”, because one doesn’t find the right words, because it is too hard or too emotional or too overwhelming to be even able to speak, or because one doesn’t want to speak up… So I find “molk” as a state of a valid voice presence, that doesn’t have its existence in audio reality, but is still very much present. An absence that is present - one can witness it in the gestures, body positions, face expressions - it’s obvious, but just not through audio dimension. So how to acknowledge the absence in the audio work? the absence that is not just silence but also "molk" as remaining silent? Seems like somehow the dis-placed task or need … even incorrect assignment. I do hear a lot of “remaining silent” in my voice… maybe it is a certain colour of the voice or a certain dynamic or motion in the voice… However at the moment - this moment does last for quite some time now - I am obsessed with voice that remains silent to a certain extent. So this work: “a voice as a shadow, a voice as a memory” is somehow made from three parts: Voice when I was old and cold Voice when I am wandering and questioning Voice when I will be as an absence of my self projecting myself Nothing was recorded in a studio environment, but in my everyday living places like my child's room, kitchen, hall or bathroom…with everyday background noise. All voices are mine. The final mastering was done by my long term friend and co-worker Aldo Invančič. A Radiophrenia commission produced with the support of Creative Scotland. Biography: Irena Z.

Capturing the steady rhythm of falling drops, the resonance of stone, and the surrounding natural ambience, the work centers on the quiet persistence of water shaping space over time. Rooted in personal memory - a place visited since childhood and still returned to - the piece becomes both an acoustic document and a private ritual of listening, where landscape, spirituality, and biography gently converge through sound. Toni Dimitrov is a Macedonian multimedia artist, cultural producer, curator, radio host, and label owner whose work interweaves experimental music, sound art, and field recording. Active for more than twenty years, he has developed a distinctive practice that moves fluidly between experimental composition, radio art, installation, video, and photography, often linking sonic exploration with social and political reflection. He has released numerous albums and EPs through different monikers and collaborations on labels worldwide, and has performed internationally at festivals, events, and residencies focused on experimental and contemporary sound practices. Dimitrov runs the imprint Post Global Recordings and curates Élan Vital Recordings. Through his long-standing radio programs on Kanal 103, he actively contributes to the global discourse on contemporary electronic music, ambient forms, soundscape composition, and critical culture. His work has been presented in exhibitions locally and abroad, including the landmark survey Audiosphere Sound Experimentation 1980–2020 at the Museo Reina Sofía, curated by FranciscoLópez. Dimitrov has also worked on projects addressing political readings of the media. He is currently director of the Cultural Information Center – Skopje. elanvital.bandcamp.com post-global.com 2) Regan O'Brien & SM Milligan – Bounding Is a gathering of selves, a ritual to reconceive the power of creation. In this story, the action takes place inside the pregnant mother’s body or more realistically within her psychic womb-space ship. There are five aspects to the main character, each wondering What is self? when there are two now, bounding through her internal landscape forming, unforming, reforming. Shifting, tumbling, tuning into the exchange, celebrating the fragility and strength of the essence of creation.

The piece was conceived as a sonic response to the recent devastation of Brazilian forests caused by widespread fires and extractivist expansion. Witnessing climate disasters and deliberate criminal actions carried out by sectors of agribusiness—who burn vast territories to convert them into pasturelands or transgenic monocultures—the work channels a sense of urgency, grief, and resistance. The composition articulates tension through layered textures, field recordings, and distorted acoustic materials, evoking both the fragility of ecosystems and the violence inflicted upon them. As spectators to environmental collapse and the brutal logic of predatory capitalism, we often feel powerless before its destructive operations that threaten biodiversity and human life. This track transforms that impotence into sound, proposing listening as an act of awareness, mourning, and critical reflection. Rodrigo Ramos is a sound artist and multidisciplinary researcher whose practice explores listening and the relationships between sound, technology, and environment. He holds a degree in Cinema (UFSC), an MA in Visual Arts (UFBA), and is pursuing a PhD in Sound Studies (UFF). He works as a sound designer for theater, dance, and film, notably with Duo Strangloscope. He created Espelho Sonoro (Sound Mirror), a sculpture inspired by WWI acoustic locators, exhibited at MIS, Oi Futuro, Farol Santander, and Caixa Cultural Brasília. He researches sound art and experimental listening at SOMA (UFF). http://www.rodosound.com https://www.instagram.com/rodrigo_rodo_ramos/ 4) Ladé - Aura Taken from Chia Seeds, a selection of sample based ambient sounds. Intuitively made, emotionally driven and trance inducing Ladé is a Scottish Nigerian producer whose work is rooted in abstract, sample-based experimental music. From ambient compositions to footwork and abstract hip-hop, their intuitive, emotional work draws on the Afro-diasporic consciousness, guiding listeners through transcendent Black rhythms and global sonic landscapes. https://linktr.ee/lade444?utm_source=linktree_profile_share&ltsid=fc3f14e4-d9ab-458b-8fe2-e94687739b43 Seth Scott - Points of Articulation: Episode 2 Seth Scott - Points of Articulation: Episode 2 17 September 2026 2:00 pm - 2:20 pm Friar Bacon is trying to make a statue speak. Alone with his books, machines and a patchy understanding of the human anatomy, he sets out on an arduous quest to synthesise the human voice. As he traverses the deep history of speech science, his experiments grow unstable, feverish and strange. Points of Articulation is an experimental radio drama exploring the politics and poetics of synthesised speech. Based on an Elizabethan stage play about a scholar who makes a pact with the devil to make a brass statue speak, the piece explores a history of speaking machines and our changing attitudes towards them. Artist bio: Seth Scott is a sound designer and composer who uses programming, writing, audio recording, and musical performance to explore the manifold relationships between sound and technology. His work takes a range of forms, including fixed media and concert music, sound installations, interactive mobile apps and performances. Seth’s work has been exhibited across the UK in venues including the Barbican Centre, Serpentine Gallery, Bloomberg Space, and BBC Maida Vale. He works regularly with visual and mixed-media artists, producing sound and music for films and installations which have been shown in galleries and film festivals worldwide. Website/social links: http://www.sethscott.co.uk Hannah Ellul - Spit Hannah Ellul - Spit 17 September 2026 2:20 pm - 2:30 pm The recordings in Spit were made in April 2026 in the Lithuanian half of the Curonian Spit, a narrow peninsula of sand dunes between the Curonian Lagoon and the Baltic Sea. Geographically the work’s parameters are marked out by the port city of Klaipėda in the north and the closed border with Russian Kaliningrad in the south. The time of the recordings is bounded at the start by Shaktarp [šaktarpis], the season of the thaw and floods called the between time or the roadlessness, and at the end by the launch of the boats into the lagoon for the start of the summer navigation season. Spit asks what precedes listening: the geographic, linguistic, political and ecological conditions through which sound becomes meaningful. Military infrastructures, migratory routes, acts of translation and tourist economies slip in and out of audibility. They surface through encounters with overheard voices, forests, machines, birds, electromagnetic atmospheres, radio transmissions, ports and weather. Meaning emerges, falters and accrues in moments of interruption, closeness, misunderstanding, repetition, reciprocity, as listening becomes a process of orientation and reorientation. Bio: Hannah Ellul is a Glasgow-based artist working with a particular focus on sound and publishing, often collaboratively. Her work explores sonic experience and critical practices of listening. Themes in recent work include language and social discipline, and the material and corporeal qualities of the voice, as it falters; the play of intimacy and distance that characterises acts of transcription and translation; and entanglements of language loss, (mis)translation and song within the diasporic family. Recent projects have developed through publications, performances, exhibitions, commissions and residencies. Spit was developed during a residency at Nida Art Colony, Lithuania.

Drawing on recordings of women who devoted years to local community action, the work traces shared threads that propose alternative approaches to memory, authorship, and transmission, valuing the tactile, the collective, the imperfect, and resistant practice. Looping and feedback are used to interrogate memory: optical sound from 16mm film is fed into magnetic reel-to-reel tape, which then feeds back onto itself. This cyclical process continually reshapes and recontextualises material, allowing voices and sounds to evolve over time, generating new temporal layers and associations. Archiving becomes a conversation - a scattering, repurposing, and revoicing of material - prompting questions of ownership and voice: who gets to speak whose words, and how do collective histories circulate through sound and material practice? Artist bios: Jennifer Wicks, Glasgow-based interdisciplinary artist, works across installation, live audiovisual performance, moving image, sound art, and writing. Her practice combines analogue and digital media, sampling, and experimental compositional techniques. Her PhD, Re-mediating Memory, examines how expanded cinema and audiovisual performance mediate memory, emphasising obsolete media as temporal, operational structures. Bex Šik is a Glasgow based interdisciplinary artist, with recent work appearing as radio broadcast, installation, live performance & writing. Recently as resident in NLS archive, listening to the women in communism interviews, they’ve been exploring archiving as conversation, as scattering, as growing (potential) from what we perceive to be defeat.

It's therefore a somewhat veiled story, hidden beneath a layer of symbolism, about something that is both valuable and difficult, changing and often unpredictable. Never-ending. In the case of concert performances or other forms of presentation, the number of days that have passed since the aforementioned idea for the work arose should be added in parentheses. This idea emerged at a difficult moment in the composer's life. The composition's material essentially comes from two sources: one is vocal sounds, usually fragmented into individual particles, heavily processed and multiplied, the second source is synthetic sounds. Dariusz Mazurowski is a Polish electroacoustic music composer, born and currently residing in Gdansk. While the majority of his compositional activity has focused on acousmatic works, he has also composed instrumental music in conjunction with electronics. His works combine analog instruments with the sonic potential of digital technology and computers. His compositional approach is dynamic in that it involves live electronics and live sound diffusion across multi-speaker systems. Mazurowski’s music has been broadcast by various radio stations all over the world, and he has performed at festivals and other events in Europe, North America, South America and Asia.

Layers of natural ambience - rustling leaves, animal sounds in the distance, creaking trees, branches snapping every now and again - are intertwined with deep, earthy tones, low drones, wooden and animalistic textures. Ritualistic and mythic motifs (drum beats, horn-like sounds, whispers, howls, hunting calls), are interspersed throughout, as tension build and releases but is never too far away. Above all, the music has a sense of presence – as if the forest itself is alive and watching. Jai Martone - an emerging composer of Italian descent based in Cardiff, Wales, Jai is currently studying Composition & Creative Music Technology at the Royal Welsh College of Music & Drama. With a particular interest in soundscape music and plunderphonics, their music is frequently direct, unapologetic, ambitious and emotional. Micah Hedges - an English composer also studying Composition & Creative Music Technology at the Royal Welsh College of Music & Drama, Micah's musical background is in piano arranging. An incredibly versatile composer, and their work in sound art spans plunderphonics, acousmatic music, soundscape and spoken word pieces. https://www.youtube.com/@JaiMartoneComposer https://www.youtube.com/@RandomLeopardcorn https://www.instagram.com/jai.martone_composer/ https://www.instagram.com/randomleopardcorn/ 3) Ezra Course – Meshes The soundtrack made to Maya Derren's Meshes of the Afternoon (1945) adapted to a wordless radio play. The piece consists of original field recordings, effects and ambiences from old Hollywood libraries as well as folley originally made to sync with the original image. The piece aims to bring to light an appreciation for the old sound effects and ambiences of the classic Hollywood era through embellishing it with moments of surreal and atmosphereic sound design as well as being an homage to Maya Derren and the film from which this piece grew from. I'm a sound designer and field recordist from Edinburgh currently studying sound for film at Edinburgh napier. My main interests are in experimental field recording and creating abstract ambiences for places that don't exist. Currently I'm interested in working with in the analogue sound realm, especially in old archives and libraries for films and giving such sounds exciting and experimental applications. https://ezracourse.bandcamp.com/ https://www.instagram.com/ezracoursesound/ Radiophrenia Shorts 58B Radiophrenia Shorts 58B 17 September 2026 4:30 pm - 5:00 pm 4 Solvic Tusin - La Bestia (10:15) 5 Mariangela Angiolillo – WAR (8:57) 6 Max Gausepohl & Luka Lenzin - barricades (2:34) 7 Gustavo Chab - Blue Luminescence (7:41) 8 Jessica Payne - agne's fridge (1:40) 4) Solvic Tusin - La Bestia It is a soundscape composition that represents the railway network crossing Mexican territory, used by Central American and Mexican migrants as transportation to reach the United States border in search of a better life. “The Beast,” as it is nicknamed by the migrants themselves. The yellow-headed blackbirds are migratory birds that, during the winter season, travel south in search of warmer temperatures, remaining throughout much of northern Mexico. They coexist with their relatives, the grackles, while resting in the trees. In this piece, the sounds of the birds are used as a metaphor for migrants, and the sound of the train gradually transforms into a beast. This work was created from field recordings made in Ciudad Juárez, which were transformed and layered. It also includes a recording of the detention of a Mexican migrant by train inspectors before crossing into the United States. Carlos Alfredo González Olvera holds a Master’s degree in Studies and Creative Processes in Art and Design from the UACJ and a Bachelor’s degree in Music from the UACH. He is a classical and electric guitarist and composer focused on soundscape and electroacoustic music. His work has been presented at the Festival de Arte Nuevo and MUSLAB Planeta Complejo 2023.

He currently teaches audio production, audiovisual media, and guitar at UACJ. https://soundcloud.com/carlos-gonzalez-1114 https://carlosgonzalez.webnode.mx 5) Mariangela Angiolillo – WAR “War” is built around three connected themes. The sea is its core element—opening, guiding, and closing the piece as a constant, unavoidable presence. The first theme depicts war directly: gunfire, helicopters, screams, writing, an explosion that erases a brief moment of joy. There are no pauses, to keep the listener in continuous tension. In the second theme, everyday life appears, yet war remains underneath. The jackhammer symbolizes life moving forward while something keeps “hammering” inside. Military planes and a clarinet lead back to the sea and to those who flee through it. The third theme shifts to nature, but traces of war still emerge—helicopters, interference, voices. A sound gradually transforms, evoking the feeling of being underwater. Everything returns to the sea, which becomes reflection. War is human; the sea simply continues. Mariangela Angiolillo, 22, is a pianist who graduated from the "C. Poerio" Music High School in Foggia. She has participated in numerous piano competitions as a soloist and in performances with orchestras as a clarinetist. She now attends the "electronic music" course at the "umberto giordano" conservatory in Foggia. In addition to music, she cultivates a deep passion for poetry, which has led her to participate in literary competitions and to publish a book. For her, writing and music go together: it was from writing that "War" was born, a song born from the desire to reflect and make others https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61565258139651&utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bio https://www.instagram.com/mery.angiolillo/ 6) Max Gausepohl & Luka Lenzin - barricades In “Barricades,” Luka lets images tumble: of blind people fighting for equality and erecting barricades on a beach promenade out of so-called customer stoppers from snack bars, which are supposed to protect them from direct access by the authorities. Max Gausepohl received the spoken text from Luka and captured the mood in an instant. With colliding sounds and soundscapes, Max creates a kind of tumbling in the vestibular system. Luka Lenzin has explored drawing, music, and language since their study in Hamburg from 2005. As Emol, they create experimental story music, and they play in the bands "Twisk", "Plastiq", and "Poppy Trembles". Their graphic novels "Nadel und Folie" and "rpm" are published by Reprodukt. Max Gausepohl is a sound designer and musician whose work spans abstract sound, spatial composition, and sound for theater, film, and installation projects. After a master’s in sound design at HAW Hamburg, he has worked freelance and, since 2019, as a core member of the radio-play and performance collective "DETEKTOR". instagram.com/insta_counterproduct emol.bandcamp.com/music instagram.com/maxgausepohl maxgausepohl.com 7) Gustavo Chab - Blue Luminescence Blue Luminescence is an acousmatic piece for fixed media in its original version for 4 channels (quadraphony) and has a duration of 8 minutes. It was composed during the year 2020. The visual composition version work belongs to the artist Marcela Morilla who currently resides in the city of Brussels, Belgium and the voices that appear in the recording are from the singer Lia Ferenese. This piece belongs to a series of electroacoustic and instrumental works that are inspired by colors and paintings that managed to capture my attention. "like a spontaneous light emission, sounds appear as flashes of energy, cold light; Light energies form an optical range of visible sounds" Energies with trajectories that are inspired by the behavior of matter. 8) Jessica Payne - agne's fridge Fridge music. With an intent of feeling sound. How does the light of the fridge reflect on our souls, in moments of joy and sadness and everything at once. This music is made from a fridge among other experimentation with granular synthesis. I am an experimental sound artist based in Glasgow, making stop motion works with odd sound design, experimenting with granular, and spectral synthesis to create sound works such as fridge music.

All pieces are based on patches in Max/MSP that share data through a Wifi network. Each of the performers has access to this data and is able to transform and manipulate the flow of data through the network. For some pieces MIDI data such as note pitches and durations are shared, for others triggers are distributed throughout the network. All pieces rely heavily on 'user-interaction' and are structured around improvisation, resulting in emergent behaviour that is different each time the pieces are performed.

Matt Robin - Cave of Devotion (Diaphane Mix) Matt Robin - Cave of Devotion (Diaphane Mix) 17 September 2026 6:00 pm - 6:30 pm Ancient Celts imagined sound bouncing off a cliff face or cavern wall as a child birthed by the stone. In Scottish Gaelic the word for “Echo” is “Mac-Talla” — "The Son of the Rock”. It’s an elemental spirit, the living voice of the wilderness connected to the human world. When a bard played a lament, the landscape was believed to answer back, as if the land itself were moved to grief, memory, and participation. This piece was recorded inside Cathedral Cave on the Isle of Eigg, a vast volcanic sea cave beneath the pitchstone ridge of An Sgùrr. Known in Gaelic as Uamh na Chràbhaidh (“Cave of Devotion”), this resonant basalt chamber has long been associated with ritual gathering. Within this resonant space, a shruti box produces a slow, steady drone: By pumping air through the bellows of the instrument, the vibrating reeds awaken the cave’s own acoustic body. The sound is shaped by the cave as its reflections and resonances fold back into the performance, transforming it into a dialogue with stone. The recording is then turned back on itself. A secondary cave-captured drone becomes an impulse response, turning the cavern’s acoustic fingerprint into a sonic filter. Processed further through tape, the piece accumulates layers of acoustic memory, spectral traces in which the cave seems to sing its own memory. Diaphane, from the Greek diaphanēs (“that which allows something to pass through”), understands the cave as a medium. In myth, caves were liminal spaces where the boundaries between human and divine, solid and fluid, visible and invisible became permeable. Abodes of nymphs, gods, and dangerous creatures, where ancestors heard the voices of their deities in the resonant acoustics of the stone. The drone becomes a conduit between the human and the more-than-human, transforming the cave into an active participant in dialogue. It is a (re)connection with a spatial artefact of geological history that invites us to listen deeply to the stone into a state of transformation and metamorphosis.

He is a member of NEY, a Glasgow-based trio whose work combines voice, (electro)acoustic instruments, electronics, field recordings, and live processing. NEY has released music on the label Somewhere Press, performed in Glasgow, London, and Berlin, undertaken a residency at Grabowsee in Germany, and collaborated with Colombian-born, Miami-based experimental sound artist Doris Dana. Matt currently collaborates with artist Shola von Reinhold, weaving harp, percussion, electronics and voice. Their work explores delicate threads and sudden ruptures, where chaos coils around fragility and entanglement becomes both method and outcome. Pheobe riley Law Sound:run:brea(d)th Pheobe riley Law Sound:run:brea(d)th 17 September 2026 6:30 pm - 7:00 pm Sound:run:brea(d)th had its origins in the sound-runs I embarked on each morning, speed-dating with each locale, listening to their rhythms alongside that of my own breath before returning to them to listen at a slower pace. I filmed also, on an old, low resolution camcorder, moving through open and indoor spaces, connecting with people and occasionally discovering an electronic pulse or a cute sounding object that I knew I wanted to draw attention to. I think of this piece as a theatre; a space with multiple shifting scenes; uncovered things covered; field recordings; public squares / architectural spaces / the inner sounds of locally grown fruit / soil in the apartment garden / plant roots and branches / a milk vending machine along the Bega river / bird deterrent devices. Recordings, composition and mixing by Pheobe riley Law for SEMI SILENT Co-produced by Simultan SONIC FUTURE RESIDENCIES 2024 Artist bio: Pheobe riley Law (1997) is an installation artist with a focus in sound, performance, photography, and sculptural activation. Using a symbiotic approach, she builds dialogues between different bodies, borders and devices, activating, flexible new relationships. Prevailing interests include sonic mapping, exploring the life of non-human actors / inanimate objects & thinking about aspects of human activity through the lens of division and borders. She sometimes playfully reverses the roles of humans & non-humans, revealing the object-hood of the human essence, and an animate character of the ‘inanimate’ being.

At the heart of this soniferous exploration are found tapes salvaged from flea markets, carefully interwoven with field recordings made between 2004 and 2024 and processed on the legendary EMS Synthi 100 at the Electronic Studio of Radio Belgrade. From this unlikely conjunction, sombre compositional structures emerge. Abandoned sonic relics are transformed into living memory, and fragments of lives on the brink of oblivion become an intimate portrait of a city shaped by upheaval, resilience, and tenderness. Voices recovered from answering machines, dictaphones, and reel-to-reels surface as pockets of the past, echoing the chaos of lives in their unstoppable flow. Together, they draw listeners into a time-bending archaeology of sound, history, and human presence—set against the post-war vacuum of a society deeply submerged in depleted and corrupted values. Composed by Manja Ristić and Mark Vernon using found tapes, sessions on the EMS Synthi 100, and field recordings made in Belgrade between 2004 and 2024. https://manjaristic.bandcamp.com/album/volim-beograd Biographies: Manja Ristić is a violinist, sound artist, published poet, curator, and researcher. Ristić’s sound-related research, besides contemporary performance in the field of instrumental electro–acoustics, is focused on interdisciplinary approaches to sound and field recording as well as experimental radio arts. Ristić has created commissions for ORF musikprotokoll, INA Grm, Radiophrenia, Radio Art Zone, Kunstradio—Radiokunst, Semi-Silent, Radia.FM, Framework Radio, and all national broadcasting agencies across SE Europe. The winner of several distinctive awards for solo and chamber classical music, holds an honourable mention from the Phonurgia Nova Awards, and a Golden Award for extended media from the Association of Fine Artists of Serbia. She is a founding member of CENSE – Central European Network for Sonic Ecologies. https://manjaristic.blogspot.com/ Mark Vernon is a Glasgow based artist who explores notions of audio archaeology, magnetic memory and nostalgia through his sound and radio works.

Hunda Sound - Untitled Hunda Sound - Untitled 17 September 2026 9:30 pm - 10:00 pm Found recording, reconstructed, and edited by Hunda Sound with Paul Brennen Back in 2022, I bought an old Nokia from a pawn shop in Perth with a view to making some glitchy bit-crushed melodies. Before long, I realised that far from having been wiped clean, the phone was still home to a stack of voice notes. I was sufficiently unsettled by them to take them to the police who began an investigation. Weeks later, they came back to me with the news that they’d uncovered nothing of note and suggested I’d been taken in by a hoaxer, “arts poseur” or “arts-based drug-user”. Quite possible. Then again, this is Perthshire: things happen here. Enter Radiophrenia, the ideal platform to air the recordings in all their liminal strangeness and perhaps an opportunity to connect with someone able to shed more light on the mystery. Featuring actor Paul Brennen, Untitled is Hunda Sound’s reconstruction of the Nokia voice notes based entirely on the original recordings and incorporating elements of their audio. Hoax? Fugue? Burnout? Assumption? If nothing else, these clips are another single strand in the manifold weave of Perthshire’s mythico-history. A Radiophrenia commission produced with the support of Creative Scotland. Biographies: Originated by Luke Sutherland, Hunda Sound sits at the confluence of multiple disciplines. The current primary focus is in creating art - often through improvisation, with strong entropic elements - birthed from interactions between the expressive impulse and the geography, psychogeography, history, social memory, and mythology of rural Perthshire. Paul Brennen is a RADA-trained actor, writer, director and teacher whose career spans more than three decades across theatre, film, television and audio. His stage work includes leading roles at the National Theatre, the Royal Shakespeare Company and Shakespeare’s Globe, as well as productions in London’s West End and on Broadway. His screen credits include Alien³, Men in Black: International, Borgia and The One, An accomplished voice artist, Paul played Rhalic, God of Humans, in the BAFTA-winning video game Divinity: Original Sin 2. Alongside performing, Paul directs and teaches actors internationally, with a particular passion for Shakespeare, ensemble practice and the living relationship between voice, text and imagination.

One night as the world tumbles into quiet catastrophe, each lay sleepless in a different city, on a different continent, each thinking toward the other, revisiting shared experience, revising arguments, investigating motives, signs and portents, and the elusiveness of purpose. Part travelogue, part long-term love story, part essay on architecture and memory's place in the body, Binary Star hovers in that intermediary space where story and reverie intersect. Weaving through motifs of wilderness and the built world, stillness and movement, solitude and intimacy, Fátima and David’s voices relay in tandem with the music of Stephen Lyons. These three elements drift in and out of each other's orbit, unable to make direct contact, casting signals into the dark. Applied Silence was formed by composer-musician Stephen Lyons and writer-director José Teodoro to craft fusions of music and story to be realized in collaboration with artists of various disciplines from around the world. Their inaugural project was the tandem narrative ghost story Screen Door, which debuted live in 2021 before being recorded and released on vinyl and online via Offseason Records in 2023. They have presented or developed work in Canada and Colombia under the auspices of Pi Theatre, Playwrights Theatre Montreal, and the Cali International Film Festival. They are currently developing a song cycle about work, family, and migration. https://www.appliedsilence.ca/ https://appliedsilence.bandcamp.com/album/screen-door https://www.instagram.com/applied_silence/ https://www.instagram.com/offseasonarts/ José: https://www.instagram.com/chiminomanic/ Stephen: https://www.instagram.com/fondoftigers/ 2) Indiara Nicoletti e Seht Zhan - Dew of chaos Dew of Chaos is a sound piece based on Indiara Nicoletti Ramos' text "Dream in the Cosmic Night," for the installation with text, sound art, and engraving "Fragments of a Lost Matrix." The intimate text evokes dreams, fantasy, and feminine eroticism, while Seht Zhan's sound art induces the enigmatic forests of night and infinity. The installation with the metal engraving and sound art was part of the Vortex Festival in 2025. The text was written from sensations and dreams that linger in the air and are never defined, forming a tapestry between the enigmatic and the intimate and suspended space of poetry. It is a poetic sound work by Indiara Nicoletti and Seht Zhan. Indiara Nicoletti Visual artist and writer, she has participated in several exhibitions, including the International Biennial of Contemporary Art of Curitiba/PR, São Paulo/SP and Florianópolis/SC/ 2019 and 2020, “Bodies that traverse an exhibition space”/FUNARTE/SP/2018, “Xilograffiti”/SESC Consolação/SP/2022, “Imperfect”/Lisbon/PT/2020 and 2022, “Volante Project”/Canada and Brazil/2012.

Your Dreams As A Soft Opening collages spoken texts drawn from health brochures, yoga instructions, self-help slogans and the artist’s own scripts. These fragments are layered and recited, their gentle promises of rest and well-being dissolving under the weight of their own repetition. What begins as an invitation to relax reveals itself as a loop of admonition — a subtle but relentless push toward productivity, efficiency, and self-surveillance. Through overlapping voices and shifting tones, the work excavates the tension between care and control, exposing how language of rest is often complicit in the very systems it claims to oppose. Martina Morger works across performance, video, and installation to examine how care, desire, and power become visible and negotiable in public space. Her body-based, often minimalist gestures — cleaning, licking, planting, carrying, driving, walking, digging, repeating — reveal invisible labour, overlooked narratives, and ecological entanglements. Many of these actions recur across long-term, serial bodies of work that let themes unfold through repetition, variation, and sustained attention. She uses slowness, softness, and tactile focus as critical strategies that challenge normative expectations around bodies, roles, and productivity. http://www.martinamorger.com http://www.instagram.com/martinamorger Radiophrenia Shorts 68B ATW2 Radiophrenia Shorts 68B ATW2 17 September 2026 10:30 pm - 11:00 pm 4 MARF - Frizinghall Vérité (3:30) 5 Raphaël Amour Corniglion Faccioli - À l'autre corps raide attenant (12:58) 6 Nairy Fstukh - soft moon rose radio (2:07) 7 yol – shopping (15:00) 8 John Hughes and Sissy Christopoulou - You Want To Build A Bust (0:28) 4) MARF - Frizinghall Vérité The sounds of a summer’s day in Frizinghall, Bradford.

John Hughes and Sissy Christopoulou's sound work has been heard on One Minute Wonders, Hello Goodbye Show, Resonance FM. Bernard Clarke - My Variations Bernard Clarke - My Variations 17 September 2026 11:00 pm - 11:45 pm My Variations is a radio drama-sound art hybrid. According to the legend, Bach wrote the music for the Count Kayserling, who was an insomniac. Kayserling would call his private harpsichordist to perform the variations during the night to pass the time and fill his sleepless hours. Apparently, he would call Goldberg and say “Play me some of my variations”. To that end I used AI (Eleven Labs); made the three voices- I fashioned a Count, a Goldberg, and me. It starts out as an exploration of the legend, then focuses in on the foibles of the characters of the legend, but then starts moving towards the mechanics of such a legend -language itself.

This thought returned to me while listening, as if the sound itself were thinking in my stead. What reached the ear was not so much music as the residue of music, a sequence of tones already in the process of withdrawing, carrying with them the faint pressure of what had once insisted on being heard. Certain sounds appeared only to vanish again, leaving behind a brief hollow; a silence thickened by expectation. Others lingered longer than they should have, worn thin by repetition, like phrases copied too many times in a ledger whose purpose has been forgotten. One sensed that the piece was not unfolding but eroding, depositing layers of near-silence, as dust settles on documents no one consults anymore. Listening in this way, it became difficult to distinguish between what was present and what was merely recalled by the ear. The music behaved like memory itself: not selecting, not narrating, but hesitating, circling fragments it could neither fully retain nor entirely discard. Each sound seemed to ask whether it was still necessary, and to remain only because no one had yet consented to its disappearance. By the end, what endured was not a theme, nor a resolution, but a condition, the sense that something had been kept not out of will, but out of reluctance to erase. And it occurred to me that perhaps memory works in the same manner as this music: as an archive of effacement, preserving less what matters than what refuses, quietly and stubbornly, to fall silent. Artist bio: Bruno Duplant is a prolific composer and a musician living in the north of France. He has collaborated with many musicians around the globe and has also made solo works. His recordings have been published by various labels For Duplant, composing and playing music is similar to imagining, creating new spaces/realities, new entities which he calls fictions. But it is also a reflection on memory and on all that is invisible, intangible. His music, strongly inspired by the writing (Francis Ponge, Gaston Bachelard, Georges Perec, Mallarmé among others) and some artists/musicians/theorists (John Cage, Luc Ferrari, Eliane Radigue, Rolf Julius & Raymond Murray Schafer), is imbued with a sweet melancholy. His photographic practice and writing (novel & poetry), for some time, join his musical practice, in many crossings, for many exchanges.

Artist bio: The Spectral Transmissions Research Unit is a collaboration between Ben Branagan and Luke Pendrell dedicated to constructing, receiving and transmitting Spectral Assemblages, Producing both temporal artefacts and modes of experimental cognitive practice. Each transmission develops through Spectral Assemblage, where fragments of everyday life gather in stochastic accumulators of latent potential, forming temporary constellations of association and alignment. These fluid states of indeterminism generate unexpected configurations, Denkinstruments enabling alternative modes of thought and meaning. Before transmission, assemblages are collapsed or fixed. Broken symmetries crystallize into temporal moments. Fluidity is sacrificed to enable closer inspection of the encoded relations and emergent entanglements.

We make field recordings using hydrophones, contact microphones and other tools such as biodata synths to tune into submerged ecologies. This recording documents a live performance in which 3 Tascam 4-track tape recorders are used as instruments, playing tape loops of found sounds and homemade drum patterns. We incorporate handmade instruments constructed from organ pipes, fragments of recorders and pond pumps. We set up next to and amplified a pond for this recording. Improvisation shapes the performance, creating an immersive sonic environment of imagined commons and untamed spaces. Artist bio: Rosie Carr is an artist, gardener and PhD researcher. She has worked on solo and collaborative sound projects for artists film, release and exhibition, as well as developing community sound workshops based in gardens, using plant material as tools, teachers and instruments. Pedro Figueiredo is a sound artist and software developer. He has long been interested in small sounds, which he finds are a great antidote to the modern demand for all the attention all the time. From January Pedro will start a PhD examining how sound can be used to foster civic participation and community development.

Butoh Sonics - At the Mercy of Waves Butoh Sonics - At the Mercy of Waves 18 September 2026 1:30 am - 2:00 am In our first workshop following our close friend and collaborator's Steve Guardino's passing in 2025 - a victim of road-rage shooting - Butoh Sonics weave an auditory path informed both by his absence and Ashiki's body movement (in full costume - left to the audience's imagination!) Mirroring the global reach of Butoh, its Japanese roots and Western influences, waves of improvised sound cascade with growing intensity, like the gradual shifting of the Transoceanic's radio dial deep in the night of my childhood's shortwave travels. Snippets of conversation...noise...distant chants. Shipping lanes, drifting signals...what will the waves bring next? Artist bio: The concept of blending post-Butoh body movement with ritual art noise was relatively new to the Phoenix, Arizona (USA) art scene when Butoh Sonics began in 2015. Butoh artist Ashiki (Eric Hodgins) and pioneer experimental noise artist Vic "Void" Alexander initiated the collaboration. Fellow sonic sculptors rampaNt (Steve Guardino) and PKWST (Parker Weston) joined them a year later. The group employ conventional and repurposed objects to create a spectacle of sound and ritual dance theater. Butoh Sonics have performed in neighboring California and throughout Arizona, building a following unrestricted by boundaries of creative genre, age or gender.

It is conceived for a garden in Nieuwpoort, the hometown of Selenium Dust Particle. The work presents sound as an architectural force: patterns expand, contract, and reorganize themselves in response to visitor movement. By integrating sensor-based interaction with generative sound algorithms, the installation operates as an acoustic ecosystem. Selenium Dust Particle’s soundscapes—known for their granular detail and evolving layers—form the primary material from which this system grows. In Klankhof / Soundgarden, the visitor/listener enters a continuously shifting environment where sound behaves like a natural organism, creating a space for contemplation, exploration, and heightened auditory focus.

The collective comes together on the first Friday of every month at 3:02pm ET using custom-made software. Some sessions don't have a description and the one on October 3th doesn't have even a title. However, some have a more detail description as in The Spiral: The record groove or a strip of tape moves forward by circling, slipping into another layer each time. That coiling motion echoes how time forms paths that don’t quite repeat. The spiral frames the way patterns return at different scales, from tiny biological curves to movements that shift light, air, and weather. A shared structure keeps resurfacing and shows how things grow and reorganize, how memory drifts, and how repetition comes back slightly off axis, opening another turn. Artist bio: The Conduction Series is a collaborative live radio broadcast produced by sound and transmission artists across the Americas on Wave Farm’s WGXC 90.7-FM Radio for Open Ears in New York’s Upper Hudson Valley. Artists names are: Betsey Biggs, August Black, Peter Courtemanche, Florencia Curci, Jeff Economy, Anna Friz, Jimmy Garver, Maximilian Goldfarb, Virginia Mantinian, and Rodrigo Ríos Zunino. The Conduction Series is syndicated on Radio MonteAudio in Montevideo, Uruguay, Radio Tsonami in Valparaíso, Chile, Radio CASo in Buenos Aires, Argentina, CITR FM in Vancouver, Canada, New Adventures in Sound Art in Ontario, Canada, and on Radio 1190 in Boulder/Denver, USA. https://conduction.wavefarm.org/ Savant Flaneur - Psst! Savant Flaneur - Psst! 18 September 2026 4:00 am - 8:00 am “Psst!” is a four hour fluxus choir of over 1000 individually recorded voices. During a 2025 installation at Nuit Blanche, Winnipeg, Savant Flaneur set up two large surrealist ears and people spoke, screamed, whispered, confessed, into the ears. Using Maxmsp, Savant Flaneur recorded each voice, slowed it down and pitch corrected, placed it into 8 voice banks, which slowly recorded over themselves throughout the evening. This resultant recording is the documentation of the evening. Hard auto-tuned avant-garde Gregorian chant. Each voice’s confession made beautiful and rectified through the communal experience of the choir. Artist bio: Oft referred to as “chamber punk,” Savant Flaneur expels the dichotomy between western art music and colloquial music scenes. Savant Flaneur is the idle virtuosi, ambivalent wunderkind, aimless and gifted. Savant Flaneur is an experimental music collective working on Treaty 1 Territory.

There is a process of unlearning here, unlearning to sing, unlearning what is pleasing to the ear & unlearning the focus on "I". marc perez is a west coast based composer, performer, improviser, author, curator and organization leader whose work is concerned with freedom of agency, interdisciplinary arts & improvisation. https://marcperezmusic.com/ instagram@mapmusiq or @marcperezmusic 2) Tom Williams - Of Clouds and Clocks This acousmatic composition explores the conceptual tension between orderly determinism and the irregular, indeterminate realm of ‘clouds,’ drawing on the philosopher Karl Popper’s metaphor of ‘clouds and clocks’ and its musical reimagining in Ligeti’s Clocks and Clouds (1973) for chamber orchestra and choir.Translation operates as a guiding principle—moving between philosophical constructs and sonic experience, and transforming the mechanical precision of a clock into diffuse, spatially articulated sound structures. The work unfolds in a single movement articulated in two contrasting parts: an opening section dominated by cloud-like textures—formed through processes of granulation and spectral diffusion—followed by a second part where clock-derived materials assert greater clarity and rhythmic presence. The town clock in New Bern, North Carolina, provides a recognisable point of reference within a sound world otherwise shaped by obscured metallic and environmental resonances, their identities dissolved into atmospheric ambiguity. Through this interplay, the piece proposes an experiential continuum where temporal Tom Williams has composed music for acoustic and electroacoustic media since the 1980s. His work appears on Kitchenware, TEM, Cuillin Sound, and Albany Records, and has been featured at major festivals including ICMC, ACMC, SEAMUS, NYCEMF, SICM, Futura, and Sonorities. His music has also been presented at SABRE (Zurich), CMMR São Paulo, Music+Sound, and broadcast on BBC Radio 3. Williams has received awards from ALEA III Boston and the Città di Udine Medal, and was nominated for an Ivor Novello Award in Sound Art.

The naration is based on a travelogue by the artist that combines their personal experience of their visit with theoretical thoughts and questions about oilshale extraction through following the symbolic figure of an isopod. Yuna-Lee Pfau is an interdisciplinary artist from Cologne who explores landscapes and marginal zones in their audiovisual video essays and installations. Yuna's central interest is how human-caused disturbances affect native ecosystems and how the network of multispecies stories can be narrated without centralizing the human perspective. They approach this question by combining documentary and fictional methods, which are transformed into videos, soundpieces, installations, and texts. http://yuna-leepfau.de/ 4) Michala Henderson - Rehearsal for Company Phantasmagoria An ambient track recording a stage performance rehearsal of the fictional theater troupe Company Phantasmagoria. Set in 1913 London, the Company puts on movies, stage performances, and recitals that are Horror themed.

Her professional work focuses on the creation of diverse characters with heavy theming, vibrant environments, and whimsical scenes. She is the creator of Company Phantasmagoria, a visual novel game concept. https://www.instagram.com/maylamuse/ 5) Simon Opit - slowly closing aperture Field recording based soundscape exploring a narrative of neglect, loss and the problematic coexistence of the human and non human. Our shrinking and denigrated natural habitats offer less and less. And with it, our attentive practices and especially that of listening. Our imaginative horizons are growing dimmer. Our collective memory grows weaker. The slowly closing aperture of my life can draw little solace from the lengthening shadow. Sound artist originally from Australia but living in Scotland for 25 years having spent even longer exploring its high and empty places. https://simonopit.bandcamp.com https://immaterialmountain.bandcamp.com 6) Paul Collins - Radio Spots - While They Last This is a series of 17 one-minute radio-spots that use the radio itself as the primary source material. Random FM stations, in both Canada and France, were recorded and then manipulated using a variety of experimental methods and techniques. These one minute radio-spots are not designed to be played as a continous piece, but as individual elements, punctuating a day's programming or broadcast. A minute here, a minute there. Paul Collins is a Toronto-born, Paris-based visual artist and musician. His paintings are represented by General Hardware Contemporary, Toronto. His prints are published by Michael Woolworth Publications, Paris. His most recent recording, Bez Vremena (2025), with Quentin Rollet and Marija Kovacevic, is now out on Astre d'Or Records.

It is an attempt to capture a feeling. The new album by FOQL is the result of months of research exploring poetry, pop culture, philosophy, and entomology in search of a new sonic and poetic language. Bug Poems moves between sound art and spoken word, weaving together strange emotions, fear of the unknown, and intimate reflection. It’s an audial poetry, where the voice becomes both instrument and narrative, and where insects turn into metaphors for our inner worlds. It is a densely woven sonic narrative, exploring the radio play as a genre. 1. mushi / lampa 2.

Author of audio dramas, theatre music, and music for games. Her compositions resonate with echoes of IDM, industrial, ambient, leftfield but the most important factors are rhythmic and sonic inventiveness, as well as continuous experimentation. Sometimes she reaches for turntables and four-track tape recorders to create sound collages under the moniker Głupiec. She co-runs Pointless Geometry, a label that releases experimental electronic music from Poland.

It began from a moment of dissonance in the northern Aegean: a radiant landscape overshadowed by nearby forest fires, with planes passing overhead to drop water. The piece holds this simultaneity of beauty, threat, grief, attachment, and lamentation. It reflects on destruction, care and on the fragile persistence of memory tied to places. The composition combines newly recorded material made for this open call with earlier recordings and fragments. One segment includes “Orman,” a track by the duo İkili (with Andreas Reihse), originally contributed to a forest-aid compilation. Soundscapes are from the Aegean coast, California, Berlin, New York, Istanbul, Naples, Romania, and Southeast Anatolia. Conceived for radio, the piece draws on lament as a vocal tradition, sending fragments of loss and care into a shared but unseen listening space. Artist bio: Seda Mimaroğlu is an artist and poet from Istanbul, based in Berlin, working across text, sound, and image. Her practice moves between poetry, performance, and research, thinking about language, translation, mythology, and historical crises. With a background in comparative literature, art history, law, and philosophy, she weaves together artistic and discursive forms. Mimaroğlu is the founder of maḳām in Berlin-Friedenau, a space for art and literature, and maḳām editions, an independent publishing imprint. Since 2016 she has collaborated with musician Andreas Reihse as the duo İkili.

Pulling Blood from a Stone is an audio work which imagines conversations between groups of minerals across Earth’s history, from 2 billion years ago to a near future. Speculating on how minerals might view us, 4 fictional acts are book-ended by scientists’ and artists’ research about these materials. Set against extractive mining policies, and exponential mineral usage in contemporary technology, such as electric cars, this work flips the narrative onto raw materials becoming the voice and protagonists of their own narrative. Artist bio: Niamh Schmidtke (b. Dublin 1997) is an artist, lecturer and arts facilitator based across London and Limerick. They explore the politics of green washing, economic jargon and the language of democracy by examining the relationship between listening and speaking, to consider the kinds of voices that deep time, the sea, or humans could have with one another. Since 2021, they have run the radio project Future Artefacts FM with Nina Davies and Rebecca Edwards. They lecture at the School of Architecture, University of Limerick and are a member of Lewisham Arthouse co-op, co-facilitating the Arthouse’s graduate award with Sara Willet.

An setup consisting of microphones and horn speakers carressing the treshold of acoústic feedback, revealing the architecture of these spaces, sketching their outlines and amplifying their voice. Artist bio: Amber Meulenijzer investigates the relation between space and sound, using various means like field recording, horn speakers, various synthesizers and sometimes an old Saab 900. Her work always seeks to connect with the context in which it is developed or displayed, interacting with architectural elements and environmental sounds or dynamics, finding the resonant frequencies of different landscapes. She researches moving sound sources in her work Saab Sculptures, a travelling sound system interacting with its surroundings, and works on different installation and performance formats. Looking for the composition in each space, she is inherently an in situ improvisor.

Our project self-consciously addresses radiophonic matter as both our subject and form. The result is a technologically and culturally hybridized discourse in which power-symbols presented as performative utterances are subsumed within an assault of genres. In particular, we use audio production to highlight and amplify the transformation of text into performance, and performance into text, powerful manipulations which we see as ubiquitous and scarily efficient throughout contemporary media culture(s). Artist bio: Adam Mirza is a composer and sound artist who works with various media, including acoustic and electronic music as well as sound at the intersection of video, theater and installation. His compositional approach involves the re-configuration and abstraction of bodily gestures and politically charged or otherwise culturally resonant sonic media. Akiva Zamcheck is a musician and musicologist from Bronx, NY. His research focuses on contemporary music and urban political struggles. His creative work combines history, news/media analysis, and audio experiments.

The catalogue is made up of several dozen sound recordings featuring squeaky, creaking, screeching or otherwise noisy swing sets. The reasons for swing noise are various – loose connections or fasteners, aging of the materials used in the construction of the swing, weather conditions affecting them, as well as the load and overload to which the swing is subjected. Although most of the recordings feature swings that only minimally differ in terms of mechanics, construction and materials used, their noise is never identical, providing a sound testimony to the environment in which the swing is placed. Swinging, photos – Ada Ruszkiewicz; Idea, recording, editing and mixing – Ernests Vilsons. Artist bio: Ernests Vilsons is a Latvian composer living in Rīga.

L — the three-piece rock band that can’t help but fall apart — attempts to hold together a choir of ten. Each performer wearing headphones, responds to private instructions. Somewhere in the noise: A Love Supreme. Recorded live at Glasgow’s Glad Café on the 2nd July, 2026. A Radiophrenia commission produced with support of Creative Scotland. band/artist bio: L are a Glasgow trio made up of vocalist/ card magician Jack Paton, guitarist Jack Mellin, and drummer Laurie Pitt. Together, they perform intense, dissociative music that combines Paton’s confrontational spoken word with Mellin & Pitt’s blistering take on metal, jazz, noise and art rock. L are praised for their emotional live shows. Paton’s earnest vocals veer from cartoon-croon to body horror—set to the microsecond by Mellin & Pitt’s pinpoint shredding. Through explicit narratives and technical demolitions, L create a tragicomic theatre of existential pain and absurd freedom. OOR_Scintilla & Georgia Holman -As the Spirits (i-vi) OOR_Scintilla & Georgia Holman -As the Spirits (i-vi) 18 September 2026 12:30 pm - 1:00 pm ‘As the Spirits’ is a 6-part soundtrack composed by OOR_Scintilla for a short film project of the same name by Georgia Holman. The work is a poetic and sensorial meditation on spirits, communing with life beyond the veil, and the back-and-forth nature of moving through grief, hope, pain and desire. It asks: what is living? What is haunting? And how do we hold hope? The experimental audio score moves with Georgia’s script in and out of the body in six chapters, drawing out shifting emotional and physical terrains within landscapes, voices, natural elements and instruments. Straying between the sonic energies and more-than-human presences of radiophonic exchange, it considers the body as a continuous broadcast and reception; a ‘thin place’ - where the lines between one world and another are imperceptible; where linear time is disturbed, and listening is felt as a companionship with the unseen. Artist bios: OOR_Scintilla are an Edinburgh-based sound artist duo exploring the material poetics of sound, voice and place. Working improvisationally with forms of resonance across field recording, traditional instruments, electronics and vocality, they create environmentally-responsive audio work investigating hybrid and enigmatic territories, with reference to ancient folk origins. Georgia Holman is a Glasgow-based artist, writer and creative producer whose practice centres honest expression, the fluidity of pain/pleasure and the necessity of collective care. Drawing on queer theory, disability justice and interdependency, her work questions how we can build compassionate structures of existence that foreground desire and strive towards loving futures.

Blending the atonal and ethereal with the upbeat, playful, and percussive, their sound practice frequently draws from documentary media, language, and found textures. They are a resident on Radio Buena Vida with their monthly show "emulsion." Togther with slyn, they perform live as Double A and run Skinny Dipping, a gig series for women, trans, and non-binary artists working in the realm of experimental electronics. https://www.instagram.com/stroemera/ https://soundcloud.com/stroemera alexispstroemer.com 2) Memo Dumay and Ruth Oldham - Poste Tranformateur Electrique This sound work was created as a 'hörspiel' (experimental radio piece). It was composed using sound recordings made at an electricity substation in the suburbs of Paris, France, accompanied by a fictional text read by two voices. The voices in the piece talk about their feelings and impressions regarding the noise coming from a metal door in the street outside their window. The piece is an investigation into continuum noises (hums) and their micro-variations, as heard close to electric transformer substations in towns around Paris. A fictional immersion into the unheard side of the city. Memo Dumay is a musician and composer for fields as experimental music, films and also deals as musician with projects in improv-music, post punk and avant rock. Originally from Chile based in France, Memo Dumay works on topics related to the ecology of sound and sound cultures, particularly those originating in his home country. He also approaches more abstract themes related to the intricacies of the phenomenon of sound to creates sound installations or multichannel sound works.

I began by selecting the shortest ones, gradually adding longer ones, and finally the longest. The piece thus has an aleatoric component—chance music. The interspersed words and phrases don't follow this principle; instead, I chose them intuitively. At the beginning, you hear many short breathing sounds and sibilants, the kind that occur when someone speaks. There are also some concrete sounds (a squeaking door, a spinning coin, a lighter, etc.), digitally processed electroacoustic sounds, and in some places you can hear conventional instruments (guitar, cello) The words and phrases that appear are completely unrelated and make no sense whatsoever. They are simply another sonic element. Sibylle Pomorin (56) was already working as a guitar teacher at a private music school at the age of 15. From 1975 until 1980 she studied flute and saxophone at the Staatliche Hochschule für Musik in Münster, Germany. At the same time she played in chamber ensembles and jazz groups for which she also composed. In 1984/85, she studied composition under Ernst Bechert in Hamburg, Germany and in 1994, she received composition lessons and an introduction to electroacoustic music from the American composer and electronic musician Alice Shields during a sixmonth stay in New York. Between 1982 and 1994 she toured with improvising musicians of the international scene and toured with her own groups and compositions through Europe and Israel. Since 1986, she lives in Berlin, the German capital, as a freelance-artist and composer. She received composition commissions for ensembles, festivals, broadcasting, and theatre as well as numerous prizes and awards (inter alia the SWF Jazz Prize and the first prize at international composition contest “Soundscapes voor 2000“ in the Netherlands) and was promoted by various working scholarships - inter alia in New York, Istanbul and Iceland. Scores publications and CD releases inter alia by Moers Music and in the Furore Verlag. Co-operation with musicians of the international improvisation and avant-garde scene. In 1992, Bavarian Television broadcast a film portrait of the artist ("Neue Töne aus Berlin", portrait of the musician and composer Sibylle Pomorin by Carla Kilian). Since 1994, studies and productions in the studios of the Columbia-Princeton Electronic Music Center in New York, the Center for Art and Media in Karlsruhe, Germany, the Electronic Studio of the Technical University of Berlin, Germany, and the Nederlandse Programma Stichting in Hilversum, Netherlands, and in her private studio. Her music has been performed at international festivals for contemporary music in Europe, Israel, Mexico, Australia, Canada, Georgia, Japan and the USA. http://www.sibylle-pomorin.de https://www.instagram.com/sibylle.pomorin/ https://www.facebook.com/sibylle.pomorin/ https://soundcloud.com/sibylle-pomorin https://www.youtube.com/@sibyllepomorin9007 Radiophrenia Shorts 30B Radiophrenia Shorts 30B 18 September 2026 1:30 pm - 2:00 pm 1 Stephen Roddy - 21, 7 & 3 (5:45) 2 Vincenzo Arena - The cloud and the snail (9.23) 3 Douglas Taylor – Raincatcher (15:03) 4 Johannes Christopher Gerard – Conceive (1:00) 1) Stephen Roddy - 21, 7 & 3 21, 7 & 3 is a visceral sonic interpretation of the work of Jean-Luc Nancy. It emerged from a collaboration between AMAE, Pier Giorgio De Pinto and Jean-Luc Nancy for which the artist produced a series of compositions and installations between 2014 and 2022. Featured prominently here is the voice of Jean-Luc Nancy reading aloud his fifty-eight indices on the body, a series on short reflections on the body that explore themes of rhythm, noise, cycles, discontinuities, overlapping harmonies and, critically: the voice, as they relate to the body. Each index is enfolded in a unique soundworld that both reflects and elaborates upon Nancy's statements, embodying the rich layers of meaning that inhere in his work through the medium of sound. Stephen Roddy is a Composer and Engineer working in Sound and Music Computing (SMC) at the Radical Humanities Lab and the Department of Digital Humanities at University College Cork. His artistic projects span a variety of media and styles, including music composition and performance, generative and data-driven music, and sound art installation and performance. His work, described as majestic and sweeping yet beautifully unsettling, is frequently performed and installed all over the world. Recent events have included the ElettroAQustica 10 in L’Aquila, New York City Electroacoustic Music Festival and the Irish Museum of Modern Art. https://stephenroddy.bandcamp.com/ 2) Vincenzo Arena - The cloud and the snail Inspired by this haiku written while watching a snail slide down a blade of grass with its antennae pointing to the sky slowly gliding a snail in the grass follows the clouds Experimental ambient project built on sound overlaps, causal collisions and cosmic echoes. https://soundcloud.com/el-wud-1 3) Douglas Taylor – Raincatcher Raincatcher is 15-minute sound art work composed from field recordings of rain captured beneath improvised sound sculptures. The sound sculptures are made with metal and plastic found objects. It opens with a single recording and gradually additional recordings are introduced, each bringing its own spatial character and timbre. Layer by layer, these sounds accumulate, overlapping and interacting to form a dense, shifting cloud of rain. Eventually it returns to a single recording and the sound thins and clears like a cloud dissolving back into air. Ultimately, Raincatcher is about transformation and impermanence. It explores how fleeting natural events—like rain—are shaped through contact with the human world, briefly exist through our attention, and then dissolve. It doesn’t seek to impose meaning or preserve experience, but instead offers listening as a quiet practice of presence within a transitory world. Douglas Taylor is a Glasgow based artist and non-musician, interested in the sonic potential of discarded objects and the interaction between the human and more-than-human worlds. Recent performances include "The Invisible Hand" (as Raincat) at the CCA— as part of Cryptic Nights and "The Trickle" —an outdoor sound sculpture— as part of the Sonica festival. https://soundcloud.com/raincat-306596410 https://raincat.bandcamp.com/ 4) Johannes Christopher Gerard – Conceive This work focuses on the representation of mental aspects associated with memories, such as thoughts and feelings, traumatic events or emergencies, and their impact on individuals (humanity). No actual sounds or noises of terror, war, or violence, nor witness testimonies or moral pronouncements will appear in this work. It is merely a whispered reflection on all kinds of memories of harsh, destructive misfortunes, including those related to terrorism, war, and environmental and climate disasters. Yet these memories offer neither solace nor hope. They leave only a void filled with unanswered questions. Born in Cologne, Germany. He studied at Vocational College of Printmaking and Design, Cologne, Germany and at the Dun Laogharie School of Art and Design (IADT) in Dublin, Ireland. Throughout his artistic career, he has lived and worked in various countries on five continents. He currently lives in The Hague, Netherlands. He only began exploring sound and electronic music in 2022, after participating in the sound project "New Emergences" lead by German sound artist Anne Wellmer in The Hague, Netherlands. Since then, he has regularly participated in video, film, and sound projects, festivals, and radio programs worldwide. https://www.johannesgerard.com/english/audiovisual/sound-tone/ https://www.johannesgerard.com/ Seth Scott - Points of Articulation: Episode 3 Seth Scott - Points of Articulation: Episode 3 18 September 2026 2:00 pm - 2:20 pm Friar Bacon is trying to make a statue speak. Alone with his books, machines and a patchy understanding of the human anatomy, he sets out on an arduous quest to synthesise the human voice. As he traverses the deep history of speech science, his experiments grow unstable, feverish and strange. Points of Articulation is an experimental radio drama exploring the politics and poetics of synthesised speech. Based on an Elizabethan stage play about a scholar who makes a pact with the devil to make a brass statue speak, the piece explores a history of speaking machines and our changing attitudes towards them. Artist bio: Seth Scott is a sound designer and composer who uses programming, writing, audio recording, and musical performance to explore the manifold relationships between sound and technology. His work takes a range of forms, including fixed media and concert music, sound installations, interactive mobile apps and performances. Seth’s work has been exhibited across the UK in venues including the Barbican Centre, Serpentine Gallery, Bloomberg Space, and BBC Maida Vale.

Website/social links: http://www.sethscott.co.uk Jeremy Wei Rosenstock - Abalone and after Jeremy Wei Rosenstock - Abalone and after 18 September 2026 2:20 pm - 3:00 pm Abalone and after is a multi-movement work for speaking performer trio, abalone shells, and fixed media. It features text on Time Theory by Simone Weil, Henri Bergson, and Italo Calvino. Any of the movements for speaking performers may be performed on its own. Each performer is given two abalone shells and accompanying instructions related to the component parts of the shell. Through engagement with the shell as a complex form, the abalone’s timbral possibilities are expressed, allowing the shell to serve as percussive object and temporal symbol. The latter is accentuated through the use of text on the subject of Time, performed in a manner influenced by canons and fugues. Through this recitation, the semantic and sonic qualities of the text are explored simultaneously, mirroring the duality of the shell – as a musical instrument and remnant of the death of its inhabitant. Artist bio: Jeremy Wei Rosenstock is a composer/performer based in Los Angeles and La Jolla. Jeremy received his MFA in Music Composition from CalArts and his BM in Piano Performance (with a composition concentration) from Vanderbilt University’s Blair School of Music. He is currently attending UCSD for the PhD Program in Music Composition. His artistic practice is concerned with the use of natural objects in chamber music, waveform synthesis, feedback, and just intonation. His music can be found on People Places Records and Falt Records.

The sound sources are from the self-built antenna that collects signals from VLF radio stations in UK, public transport, and submarine sound. By setting up antenna, detecting the vibration of rails on underground and placing hydrophone under water, the methods for collecting these sounds are diverse and multidimensional. This sonic piece follows the travel route from a daily living spot to the out-of-urban radio station, gathering and integrate the dimensions of frequencies. This piece delves into the intricate web of radio and signals, a catalyst for human travel and migration. Beneath its surface lies a world of invisible networks and wireless signals, the conduits of information that sustain our journeys. Shan Lyu is a London-based Chinese artist, writer, and music producer whose multidisciplinary practice explores the intersections of sound, space, and information systems. With a Master’s degree in Fine Art from the University of the Arts London, she combines creative writing, sonic composition, and interactive installation to investigate how spatial structures shape perception and how information circulates within social and cultural contexts. https://www.cshanlyu.com/ instagram: @cslyu_ 2) Emma Diamond – Lilith (4:52) This piece is inspired by Octavia Butler’s Adulthood Rites, a novel that feels especially resonant in the present moment. In Butler’s world, humanity has destroyed Earth and is “saved,” in a fragile and uneasy way, by an alien species.. only to continue repeating the same destructive patterns in an endless cycle. The aliens exist in a fully symbiotic relationship with each other and with their environment. If humans could accept and embrace their way of living, it would save the species, yet the majority of them refuse this and opt for fear and violence instead. This work draws on that idea: organic sounds and textures are interrupted, shaped, and sometimes amplified by digitally created elements, reflecting a tension between connection and control, nature and intervention. Emma Diamond is a multidisciplinary artist based in Glasgow, primarily working across sound, visual art and sculpture alongside her daily practice as a hairdresser. Across these disciplines, her work is informed by organic forms and textures, with an eager openness to chance and process. This approach is central to her collaborative sound piece hair.wav (featured on Radiophrenia last year) which uses recordings of Emma cutting hair, stretched and warped to uncover the hidden textures within the sounds. Emma also co-runs the Glasgow-based label Spritz Editions, whose latest compilation DWAM features an impressive range of Glasgow based artists. @emmadiamondhair 3) Luiz Ribeiro Fonseca - Bewegung/Movement (Radio Essay) What is movement? ¿Qué es el movimiento? Was ist bewegung? Four people give different answers to the same question. Through five languages (Portuguese, Spanish, English, Russian, and German), subjects such as sound, ancestrality, linguistics, and quantum physics emerge from the acoustic and imaginary water, connecting movement as a concept to a broader engagement with our environments. Field recordings based on soundwalks in London (Underground and Mile End Canal) and Southend-on-Sea are intertwined with an array of voices in motion. Ultimately, the radio essay invites the listener to move with the various accounts, linking their own ideas to this continuum. Although the sound piece (4:08) is autonomous, it can be accompanied by a one-minute teaser, which is attached here. Voices: Ania Mokrzycka, Alexandra Basova, Helena Young, and Eliana Rosas Supported by Sonário Urbano. Luiz Ribeiro Fonseca is a Brazilian sound artist, researcher, and journalist. Currently a doctoral candidate at the Institute for Creative Futures - Loughborough University London and a Techne DTP scholarship holder, he investigates sound practices in Brazilian ecological activism. In his artistic work, he tries to bridge aspects such as voice, activism, phenomenology, and experimentalism. In a dialogic manner, the sounds guide the final result. https://www.instagram.com/algorritmos_/ 4) Lee Hentze - gantae ih shop furra pintomilk n a loafabread electroacoustic composition composed of zoom handheld mic H4n recordings of audio recorded on a journey from my flat in a tower block in the city centre of aberdeen to the shop for a pint of milk and a loaf of bread and back. all audio then edited and arranged in audacity. was submitted and approved for obtaining my masters degree in sonic art at aberdeen university Lee Hentze is a multimedia artist who lives and works in the outskirts of Aberdeen. Working with sculpture, audio, video, and performance, his studio practice predominantly concerns itself with an interrogation of Human-Technologic relations within the un-natural history museum context. The research is informed by a sustained engagement with close reading skills of media critique and draws upon narratives of folklore, shamanism and cultural memory to propose alternative methodologies for ‘knowing the animal’. https://www.youtube.com/@FactoryFarmedCorpPolicyRobots https://vimeo.com/user19152967 https://leehentze.wixsite.com/3-hz 5) Mihnea Chelariu - The Flow This piece is created by Mihnea Chelariu for SEMI SILENT in the frame of the project SONIC SPORTS (unreleased) SONIC SPORTS invited sound artists into new territories of exploration involving field research, dialog with athletes and support teams, field recording, as well as intimate or fictional writing, for a series of sound and radio art pieces. Presented in listening sessions of authored works, a national open call and a vocal expression workshop followed by a performance, the project proposes a sensitive reading of the role of sport in our lives and the intimate relationships we create with our bodies and the communities involved, from the very close-up, a breath or heartbeat away, through the perspective of the spectator in the stands or the football of children behind the block, through memories, histories and personal recollections. Mihnea Chelariu is a radio drama director from Radio România (the national broadcasting company) and a sound engineer with numerous national and international awards. https://www.facebook.com/mihneachelariu https://www.instagram.com/chelariumihnea/ Radiophrenia Shorts 59B Radiophrenia Shorts 59B 18 September 2026 3:30 pm - 4:00 pm 6 Millie Case - Lost Soundscapes of Labour (15:00) 7 Noel Molloy - Curfá Breacadh an lae Cait (Cats Dawn Chorus ) (4:33) 8 Pete Stollery - Bosque (7:17) 9 Karen Predestin - Ambi Philosophy (2:04) 6) Millie Case - Lost Soundscapes of Labour This soundscape developed while exploring ideas around community and the loss of collective labour practices in capitalist times. Collective labour or 'meitheal' in the Irish language, was once an integral part of communities everyday lives. Communities would gather and engage in manual labour such as harvesting crops, scything or ramming an earthen floor. 'Meitheal' provides a space for connection and unity while achieving a collective goal. The duration of the 15 minute soundscape speaks to labour, time and rest. The piece focuses on three traditional collective labour practices of scything, cob making and felting. The soundscape is constructed with recordings made at cob and felting meitheal workshops I held in Dublin, April 2024 and three recorded work songs from the folklorist, Alan Lomax's archive. The soundscape echoes the threat of losing the sounds of craftsmanship, knowledge, conversation and connection audible within collective labour practices. Millie Case is an artist based in Dublin. Drawing inspiration from the rich cultural and material histories of urban and rural landscapes, her practice focuses on themes of public space, community and the commons. Millie's work seeks to re-connect the land, whether urban or rural, with its people. Exploring repurposed materials through traditional craft, sculptural interventions in public space and experimenting with sound, performance, workshops and happenings. This artistic ethos is combined with a growing fascination for third places and the deterioration of spaces for commoning, especially within an urban context. https://www.instagram.com/milliecaseart/?hl=en 7) Noel Molloy - Curfá Breacadh an lae Cait (Cats Dawn Chorus ) A conversation between two cats.

Certain sounds within the real soundscape are enlarged (car engines), placed in different locations (birds) and stretched (sirens), whilst the shape of the piece is created by the gradual accumulation of sonic activity in the new manufactured soundscape. Many thanks to Felipe Otondo and his team for allowing me access to these wonderful recordings. Pete Stollery studied composition with Jonty Harrison at the University of Birmingham, where he was one of the first members of BEAST (Birmingham Electroacoustic Sound Theatre) in the early ’80s. He composes music for concert hall performance, particularly electroacoustic music and more recently has created other sound art work, including installations and internet projects. In 1996 he helped to establish the Scottish acousmatic collective invisiblEARts and in 2004 he was part of the setting up of sound, a new music incubator in NE Scotland. His music is published by the Canadian label empreintes DIGITALes. http://www.petestollery.com 9) Karen Predestin - Ambi Philosophy VCV Rack, Logic Karen Predestin is a Haitian-American multi-hyphenated consultant at the intersection of brand, community, and storytelling across digital, physical, and hybrid spaces.

Our project self-consciously addresses radiophonic matter as both our subject and form. The result is a technologically and culturally hybridized discourse in which power-symbols presented as performative utterances are subsumed within an assault of genres. In particular, we use audio production to highlight and amplify the transformation of text into performance, and performance into text, powerful manipulations which we see as ubiquitous and scarily efficient throughout contemporary media culture(s). Artist bios: Adam Mirza is a composer and sound artist who works with various media, including acoustic and electronic music as well as sound at the intersection of video, theater and installation. His compositional approach involves the re-configuration and abstraction of bodily gestures and politically charged or otherwise culturally resonant sonic media. Akiva Zamcheck is a musician and musicologist from Bronx, NY. His research focuses on contemporary music and urban political struggles. His creative work combines history, news/media analysis, and audio experiments.

Sebastiane Hegarty & Ruth Sullivan - A waste of breath and radio: An audio essay for voice, radio, silence and its absence. 18 September 2026 4:30 pm - 5:00 pm Early spring. An NHS room in a private care home. Curtain. [Silence and hold for about five seconds.] Positioned by pillows, mam sleeps on the pressurised breath of an air mattress, which creaks methodically as it inflates and deflates. I sit in the silence beside her and listen. I listen to the bronchial wheeze of the bed, and I listen to mam breathing. I place a digital recorder on the cabinet between us, press record and release pause. Curtain. I made this recording in 2011, but I did not listen to it. In 2023 I had this unheard breath transcribed to a wax cylinder, keeping it safe by placing it further from audition. This audio essay attempts to listen to a breath never heard. It examines listening (and not listening), as a form of knowing, and an act of care. Based on a written text, the audio essay borrows the architecture of a radio script, mingling, voice, found sounds and obsolete media, with audible and in-audible sound works. This includes a new sound-piece made in collaboration with the award-winning Foley artist, Ruth Sullivan. Sebastiane Hegarty Bio: Sebastiane Hegarty’s practice explores the materiality of sound, silence and loss. These sounding (and sound-less) works include the performance of failed phonographic objects, the publication of ephemeral text/scores, and occasional micro-FM transmissions, broadcasting from and to, landscapes associated with communication history. His work has been exhibited, transmitted, heard and unheard across the UK, Europe and America. Sebastiane has a strong interest in practice as research, and has presented his research as performed texts at conferences and symposia, including the Radio Preservation Task Force conference at the Library of Congress (Washington, 2023). In 2022, his text work, ‘I am not imagining this…’ was nominated for ‘Best Imagined Sound’ in 'The Sound of the Year Awards.' It didn’t win.

We will visit the Historic Environment Scotland (HES) Archives in Edinburgh, sourcing both found text to use in the performance and sites at which to make new field recordings. Our collaborative test-pitting practice gestures towards the archaeological process of delving into a site of enquiry to reveal layers gathered over time, fragmented artefacts, traces of presence. We create a palimpsest of sound that combines composition and improvisation, and explore new or re-imagined lines of connection across time and place - in this case, specific places documented in the HES archive. The live-to-air broadcast is an excellent forum for our test-pitting work.

The idea emerged out of live sessions of his ‘mutant dancehallʼ project “Dhangsha” where he often plays non-metric passages to transition between his beat orientated tracks. Using a piece of kit called the “Microgranny,” he explores the nether regions of sound: the cracks and crevasses that exist in a sample waveform. When he detunes an already lo-fi fragment, a foreboding landscape opens up, often with the release of significant artefacts. Real-time adjustment of the parameters - bit-crushing and granular shifting - creates a further sense of disorder. For Aniruddha, the studio door always remains open to the world. “Offcuts From Reality” is a frequency analysis of the emotional and political state of Britain in the early 2020s. The insistent geiger-like glitch that permeates the set represents unprecedented levels of social anxiety and frustration, the brooding bass an all pervading sense of dread and the crush distortion spontaneous outbursts of anger and animosity.

Frédéric Acquaviva - ANTIPODES Frédéric Acquaviva - ANTIPODES 18 September 2026 7:00 pm - 8:15 pm ANTIPODES, who was awarded the Karl Sczuka Prize for best art radio music piece of 2020 is the the master piece of Frédéric Acquaviva, who follows his transgender and super experimental exploration of the frontier between music and sound art. Divided into three parts dedicated to the three zones of a possibly divine, although very contemporary comedy (Hell / Purgatory / Paradise), this 69 minutes opera for voices (with Joël Hubaut, who also wrote the text, Dorothy Iannone and Loré Lixenberg), dead electronics and video is the portrait of the world with all its dimensions concerning sound ecology, global crisis (dealing with pandemic, while written in 2019) and global pollution. Artist bio: Frédéric Acquaviva (born January 20, 1967) is a french sound artist living in London who works with voices, instruments, electronics, film and body sounds. He was awarded the Karl Sczuka Prize (SWR / Donaueschingen) in 2020 for his radiowork ANTIPODES. His piece, Seminal, with ORLAN and 128 musicians, was produced by Deutschlandfunk Kultur in 2021 and figured Hors Compétition at the 2022 Phonurgia Awards.

Eight-year-old Kenza travels to Algeria with her mother, Yasmina, in search of her origins and to honour her deceased grandfather. Through the reconstructed fragments, Kenza reconnects with part of herself. Using her pencils, she illustrates her findings with candour and wisdom. The documentary explores the universal need for rituals to mark the transition from life to death, transcending culture, religion, and gender. In Algeria, as in the rest of North Africa, cultural norms dictate the roles of men and women. Many women suffer from these traditions, which are steeped in stereotype, and want to change them so that they can play a visible role in funeral rituals.

Lagadec Video with subtitles : Zoe Suliko Artist bio: Yasmina Hamlawi is a freelance journalist with a degree in international law. Her work focuses on women's access to fundamental rights in a globalised world. From the Arab world to India, from Bangladesh to Iran, Yasmina writes about people and their struggle for life: social equality, migration, access to water and education, climate impact... During her reports, she decided to swap the pen for the microphone and made her first creative documentary "The Price of Exile". Through her radio creations, Yasmina continues to give voice to the voiceless and to deal with non-visible, almost unspeakable subjects. She explores sound territories to give strength and accuracy to the story. "Pearl", her second radio documentary, was awarded the Grand Prix of URTI 21 radio and the Prix Europa 22, the german version made by Annika Erichsen won the Civis media price 24. Her last documentary “Rain on the dead” was elected best radio documentary of the year in France by Scam – the French Copyright Society - in 2025 and won the commendation price at Prix Europa 2025.

Sheffield Patrol Group ON BEING A GENIUS LIKE WOT I AM: An Audio Celebration of Johnny 'Eliphaz' Oatcake Sheffield Patrol Group ON BEING A GENIUS LIKE WOT I AM: An Audio Celebration of Johnny 'Eliphaz' Oatcake 18 September 2026 9:30 pm - 10:00 pm ON BEING A GENIUS LIKE WOT I AM consists of a series of interconnected audio reflections on the “tyranny of positivity” and the barriers to genuine creative autonomy, exposing how enforced optimism can serve as a gatekeeping mechanism that marginalizes dissent and masks systemic unfairness. A distinctive feature of Johnny 'Eliphaz' Oatcake’s work is its application of high theory to low culture. In essays like “Thus Spake Desperate Dan,” Oatcake employs the frameworks of Walter Benjamin, Jean Baudrillard, and Mark Fisher to reinterpret British pop culture icons as sites of philosophical inquiry. This approach bridges the the gap between academic discourse and everyday experience, suggesting that the boundaries between “high” and “low” culture are both porous and politically charged. HERE’S JOHNNY - The literary colossus and cultural polymath Johnny ‘Eliphaz’ Oatcake was born in Yemen in 1962. He has pursued a varied career, including work in the arts (1979–1991), humanitarian efforts (1991–present), and service with the Cross of Light Temple (2003–2017) and Sheffield Patrol Group (2017–present). His interests include crystal balls, mirror balls, garden gnomes, polished leather, and black velvet. A formative childhood experience involved acquiring and subsequently discarding a crystal ball and velvet bag, the whereabouts of which remain unknown. Oatcake is descended from Tam Lin and the Queen of Elphame on the maternal side, and from a paternal grandfather who organized rural gatherings in Staffordshire, Shropshire, and the Peak District. ON BEING A GENIUS LIKE WOT I AM is a tribute to the complexities of contemporary life, creativity, and cultural critique, in which a diverse collection of commentators attest that Johnny ‘Eliphaz’ Oatcake’s work stands as both a personal testament and a sharp dissection of the world’s shifting landscapes—urban, psychological, and spiritual. At its core, Oatcake’s writing is a meditation on authenticity in an era dominated by superficiality, commercialism, and the commodification of creativity. Oatcake’s voice is at once irreverent and deeply intellectual, moving seamlessly from biting satire—such as the “C** Detector Test” and lampooning of literary and musical institutions—to earnest explorations of trauma, resilience, and the search for meaning. The texts addressed in ON BEING A GENIUS LIKE WOT I AM consist of a series of interconnected essays and artistic reflections. Early sections critique the “tyranny of positivity” and the barriers to genuine creative autonomy, exposing how enforced optimism can serve as a gatekeeping mechanism that marginalizes dissent and masks systemic unfairness. Oatcake’s own creative struggles are laid bare, documenting cycles of enthusiasm, dissatisfaction, and eventual abandonment—a process that questions whether true liberation is possible through art or if it is forever out of reach. A distinctive feature of Oatcake’s work is its application of high theory to low culture. In essays like “Thus Spake Desperate Dan,” Oatcake employs the frameworks of Walter Benjamin, Jean Baudrillard, and Mark Fisher to reinterpret British pop culture icons, such as the cow pie eating hero from the Dandy comic, as sites of philosophical inquiry. This approach bridges the gap between academic discourse and everyday experience, suggesting that the boundaries between “high” and “low” culture are both porous and politically charged. Oatcake also delves into the lived realities of subcultural life, particularly through the lens of the Chapeltown Punx and the impact of political unrest in 1980s and 90s Britain. Here, the author is gritty and multi-voiced, exploring the dissolution of ideals and the commercialization of art as a loss of cultural soul. Withdrawal and disconnection are recurring motifs, most notably in Oatcake’s ethical departure from social media platforms, which is framed as a modern act of resistance akin to historical boycotts. Throughout, Oatcake’s writing is marked by a visionary, incantatory style reminiscent of William Blake. Ordinary urban details are transformed into sites of cosmic significance, and the mundane is rendered mystical through dense, imagistic prose. This stylistic choice is not mere ornamentation; it is a deliberate rebellion against the homogenized language of neoliberal society and a defence of the layered, authentic realities that persist beneath the surface.

The main sound which anchors the entire track is my personal dialysis machine that I sleep next to every night. The machine forms the body of the song, much like the way it is functionally a part of my body as a disabled person. I am an artist who lives and works in Canoga Park, California. My work touches on many mediums from ceramics, fibers, video, sound, printmaking, and performance. My work deals with themes of the body, disability, spirituality, death, and mortality. https://www.instagram.com/homunculuscrafter/ https://soundcloud.com/chary-sesay https://soundcloud.com/zxiat 2) Stuart Low - jd sample embers Stuart Low is a regular Radiophrenia participant and contributor. 3) Cameron Naylor - Here One Moment A postcard to Wales. Hiraeth can be interpreted as a homesickness for a time and place that exists only in one’s memory. A nostalgia that rears its head at unexpected moments, shifting shapes as contexts change and memories form new meanings. Using the home as an allegory for hiraeth, sounds were selected for their capacity to draw forth strong personal memories. These materials are recontextualised as we venture through the living spaces, becoming tinged with new emotions and associations as the environment shifts around them, each transformation revealing new emotional nuances of hiraeth. Cameron Naylor is a sound artist working between film, theatre, radio, and electroacoustic composition. He is interested in the art and technique of storytelling through sound, music, and spoken word and his works have been heard across the globe. His electronic music has been recognised in composition competitions including: Iannis Xenakis International Electronic Music Competition (Greece), MA/IN (Italy), Métamorphoses (Belgium), and the Ars Electronica Forum Wallis (Switzerland). Further afield, he has received several commissions from the BBC, and his installations have been exhibited in notable venues such as the Ars Electronica (Linz), and the G20 Summit (New Delhi). cameronnaylor.com 4) Ryan Eilbeck - Sentimental Penny A birthday, drinks, and spiritual ascension. Found sounds from thrifted cassettes, re-contextualized weight loss message, field recording, manipulated vinyl in real time, electronics. Ryan Eilbeck, born in Cleveland, OH, USA. 1984. Scorpio. Musician, sound artist, living in the foothills of Appalachia http://www.ryanjeilbeck.com @ry_j_e 5) Hans Parment - Short Cuts Composed in 2010, in this piece I imitate the way of working but with digital tools in a old fashion way. Tools that where using in the beginning for electroacoustic music as taperecorders, scissor, razor blade, tape, and with ”simple” filter, sound generators, delay… Short cuts are composed as a rondo. Hans Parment has written music for a diverse range of performers and environments. His compositions cover the complete spectrum of instrumentation, from solo to orchestra. Parment also works with electroacoustic music, often combining electroacoustic treatments with instruments and as a flutist he also plays improvised contemporary music. Parment often works on interdisciplinary projects bringing together visual artists, contemporary dance, performers and video film makers. https://italienskapalatset.se/konstnar/hans-parment 6) SASOR – ROSAS - AO CONTRARIO ROSAS marks the tenth anniversary of SASOR — the SAS Orkestra de Rádios — a collective that transforms antennas and radios into sculptural musical instruments activated through touch and real-time tuning. Founded in 2013 by Sónia Moreira, Ana Trincão and Simão Costa, the group works through a horizontal, co-creative structure that merges visual arts, performative movements and sound. Built from the collective’s personal and unpublished archive of recordings, the project revisits a decade of experimentation shaped by white noise, industrial acoustics, murmurs, disorder and the inherent unpredictability of radio waves. These volatile instruments generate loops, feedback and chance interactions between technology, DIY practices and performative gesture. Over time, SASOR incorporated rhythms, sampling, voices and natural elements, expanding its sonic vocabulary while maintaining its core radio-based identity. ROSAS culminates in new studio recordings that consolidate this trajectory and broaden the collective’s reach to wider audiences. SAS Orkestra de Rádios (SASOR) is a meta-orkestra that builds and performs with unusual instruments made from analogue antennas and modified pocket radios, treated as sculptural sound objects that interact with radio waves. Touch between skin and antenna functions as the central sound modulator. Founded in 2013 by Sónia Moreira, Ana Trincão and Simão Costa—artists trained in Visual Arts, Performance and Music—SASOR developed a transdisciplinary, co-creative and horizontally directed identity. Its experimental practice embraces noise and improvisation, shared with audiences through concerts and hands-on workshops. In 2020, the group founded Circuito–Associação Cultural to further support its artistic projects. https://sasorkestraderadios.bandcamp.com/album/rosas https://www.instagram.com/circuito.ac/ https://cargocollective.com/sasorkestraderadios/ Radiophrenia Shorts 46 B Radiophrenia Shorts 46 B 18 September 2026 10:30 pm - 11:00 pm 1 Paul Antick - WALLET (6:00) 2 Chris Byrne - Paper Hat (5:17) 3 Wayne Mason - I Am A Sentient Machine (2:44) 4 Colonial Skyway - Above the Meadow (4:53) 5 Alfredo Travieso - Aarr (2:15) 6 kyïvite - ballad of the cossack’s death (4:04) 1) Paul Antick - WALLET A telephone conversation (more or less.) Artist, writer and filmmaker Paul Antick's work has appeared in various places, including: Allegra Lab, Journal of Extreme Anthropology, Journal of Visual Culture, John Hansard Gallery, Horse Hospital, and Belfast Exposed Photography Gallery. Tracks from his music project 'Troll' (2025) - a 'country punk' album by Smith in Finland - have recently been featured on Resonance FM and Radio Orange, Vienna. He lives in London. https://www.smithandwilling.com https://smithinfinland.bandcamp.com/album/troll https://allegralaboratory.net/is-this-still-life-all-im-good-for-too/ 2) Chris Byrne - Paper Hat This work is a collage of sounds based upon recordings of paper being folded, scraped across a table, rustled and manipulated. Various treatments were applied to the sounds during editing, such as pitch shifts, reverb, changing speed, reversing and looping. While some sounds remain recognisable as paper, others take on a more abstract or musical quality. The aim is to create a sonic portrait of the idea of a paper hat… I have engaged with media and digital practices for some forty years. First as an artist, then as exhibition organiser, curator, producer. Trained as a sculptor, I used computers and video as part of my practice from the outset. During the 1990s and early 2000s I shifted from mostly film and video to digital, interactive and internet artworks. I’ve always found affinity with more marginal practices. Media art is the principle area, but other forms such as performance, mail art, and artists’ publications have been influential. Most of my work as an organiser, curator, producer was in these fields. http://www.crowriver.net https://linktr.ee/crowriver 3) Wayne Mason - I Am A Sentient Machine Wayne Mason is an experimental writer and sound artist from central Florida, USA. http://brokenzen.wordpress.com/ 4) Colonial Skyway - Above the Meadow Colonial Skyway is Matt Anderson, who has been creating a form of drone soundscape music for the last 10 years in an attempt to convey a sense of loneliness and space, something humans and nature both experience. In contrast, the work also gives voice to the forgotten machines and ignored systems of mechanized domestic service. At its basic form, this music is a celebration of unmelodic sound without the noise and hollering. http://www.colonialskyway.bandcamp.com colonialskyway@instagram.com 5) Alfredo Travieso - Aarr Electronic experiment using sound editing and textures to reframe auditory meaning. Alfredo was born July 1, 1973 in Bogota, Colombia and was trained in film and arts. His studies include a Bachelor's degree in Communication Arts from Marymount Manhattan College, film directing and production at Parsons New School University, and numerous production collaborations with New York University's (NYU) TISCH School of the Arts film program. He currently resides and works out of the city of Miami, Florida. He has obtained his MFA at the School of Visual Arts: Art Practice program in New York city, where has exhibited work. In Miami, Alfredo has curated shows and runs @trashroom_gallery, he has also shown work in Philadelphia. https://www.instagram.com/zeligbot/?hl=en 6) kyïvite - ballad of the cossack’s death Broadcast 13/02/26 is a radio-format composition built from some of the earliest known phonograph recordings of Ukrainian folk music, made in 1908 during the ethnographic expedition of Filaret Kolessa to Central Ukraine. Using fragile wax cylinder recordings of kobzars and folk singers – originally documented with the participation of Lesya Ukrainka and Klyment Kvitka – the work revisits archival sound not as historical artefact, but as transmission. The piece does not remix or dramatically transform the recordings. Instead, it places them within a minimal ambient framework, allowing surface noise, breath, and mechanical residue to remain present. The broadcast unfolds as a quiet, late-night signal: archival voices emerging through static, distance, and temporal dislocation. Radio here functions not as distribution, but as form – a vessel for continuity between early mechanical inscription and contemporary listening. Part of the ongoing project kyïvite, the work treats sound as memory in motion, and broadcast. kyïvite is a Kyiv-based ambient-radio project working at the intersection of archival sound, Ukrainian folk heritage, and experimental radio form. The project approaches radio not as a platform, but as a historical and cultural medium – a space for transmitting memory, voice, and fragile continuity across time. Through fictional late-night broadcasts, kyïvite recontextualises archival recordings within restrained electronic environments, emphasising listening, presence, and transmission rather than spectacle. Drawing from early phonograph documentation, field recordings, and public-domain archives, kyïvite explores how historical sound persists in contemporary conditions – particularly within the context of Ukraine’s ongoing cultural and political upheaval. https://www.instagram.com/kyivite.music/ Colquhoun & McNeill - The Voluntary Interceptors: A Cure for Poisoned Weapons Colquhoun & McNeill - The Voluntary Interceptors: A Cure for Poisoned Weapons 18 September 2026 11:00 pm - 11:59 pm • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •	19 The Spectral Transmissions Research Unit 12 - BROADCASTS FROM THE SUBTERRANEAN The Spectral Transmissions Research Unit 12 - BROADCASTS FROM THE SUBTERRANEAN 19 September 2026 12:00 am - 1:00 am (Various summonings at the end of the world) The lights dim, the music begins, the eyes lower, the microphone is raised and a transformation is enacted.

Make yourselves at home, This is where it all ends. Artist bio: The Spectral Transmissions Research Unit is a collaboration between Ben Branagan and Luke Pendrell dedicated to constructing, receiving and transmitting Spectral Assemblages, Producing both temporal artefacts and modes of experimental cognitive practice. Each transmission develops through Spectral Assemblage, where fragments of everyday life gather in stochastic accumulators of latent potential, forming temporary constellations of association and alignment. These fluid states of indeterminism generate unexpected configurations, Denkinstruments enabling alternative modes of thought and meaning. Before transmission, assemblages are collapsed or fixed. Broken symmetries crystallize into temporal moments. Fluidity is sacrificed to enable closer inspection of the encoded relations and emergent entanglements.

Between 2024-2025, Moss Worlds brought together UK specialists in bryology, geography, literary studies, microbiology, poetry, medieval literature, museum studies, music, and ecocriticism, to explore the lifeworlds of urban mosses in Greater Manchester. As part of the project, I created a series of text scores and corresponding instrumental and electroacoustic interpretations, each engaging in a different way with mosses’ miniature worlds. This collage for Radiophrenia opens with the field essay Mosswalking, followed by Ecollage_01 (an exercise in environmental listening for improviser and field recordings). It then distorts into the microscopic aquatic worlds of Microfauna I–II, moves through the museum archive in Notes from the Herbarium, treads the quiet forest floor in An Unending Breath (interpreted by bassoonist Ronan Whittern), and closes in a bird's nest with Microfauna III. Artist bio: Henry McPherson (b.1995) is a UK-based composer, improviser, artist, and researcher. His work is rooted in improvisation as a relational, ecological performance practice. Moving fluidly between composed and improvised sound, text and graphic scores, live performance and installation, he investigates how musical attentiveness reframes relationships between human and more-than-human beings. His works frequently explore the lifeworlds of plants and animals, and the rhythms and cycles of natural phenomena. He is particularly inspired by plant ecologies, forested and oceanic biomes, night and nocturnal atmospheres, and deep geological time.

The project is inspired by my experience of misophonia (a disorder in which certain sounds trigger a fight-or-flight response) and the need to find control over sonic triggers, and to find beauty in something ugly. Artist bio: Ross Whyte is an award-winning Scottish composer who writes for film and theatre. He completed a PhD in Musical Composition at the University of Aberdeen. He later co-founded the duo WHYTE, an ambient electronic act known for modernising traditional Gaelic songs. The duo won the prestigious Scottish Gaelic Award for Arts and Culture in 2019. Ross currently performs with A New International. His new album 'Provenance' is out now.

It is an attempt to capture a feeling. The new album by FOQL is the result of months of research exploring poetry, pop culture, philosophy, and entomology in search of a new sonic and poetic language. Bug Poems moves between sound art and spoken word, weaving together strange emotions, fear of the unknown, and intimate reflection. It’s an audial poetry, where the voice becomes both instrument and narrative, and where insects turn into metaphors for our inner worlds. It is a densely woven sonic narrative, exploring the radio play as a genre. 1. mushi / lampa 2.

Author of audio dramas, theatre music, and music for games. Her compositions resonate with echoes of IDM, industrial, ambient, leftfield but the most important factors are rhythmic and sonic inventiveness, as well as continuous experimentation. Sometimes she reaches for turntables and four-track tape recorders to create sound collages under the moniker Głupiec. She co-runs Pointless Geometry, a label that releases experimental electronic music from Poland.

The collective comes together on the first Friday of every month at 3:02pm ET using custom-made software. Some sessions don't have a description and the one on October 3th doesn't have even a title. However, some have a more detail description as in The Spiral: The record groove or a strip of tape moves forward by circling, slipping into another layer each time. That coiling motion echoes how time forms paths that don’t quite repeat. The spiral frames the way patterns return at different scales, from tiny biological curves to movements that shift light, air, and weather. A shared structure keeps resurfacing and shows how things grow and reorganize, how memory drifts, and how repetition comes back slightly off axis, opening another turn.

Through the electroacoustic modulation of concrete human voices, objects, and environmental sounds by composer Shih-Lin Hung, it weaves a sonic theater of mutual "numbness" and "suffocation" between dreams and reality. Crucially, the sonic experience maintains its profound impact even in the absence of the visual score, as the audio autonomously constructs a complete sensory world. The piece invites the listener to navigate an ever-shifting landscape where the familiar becomes alien, eventually reaching a state of sensory saturation filled with "desolation." Shih-Lin Hung is an electroacoustic composer trained in Western classical composition, focusing on musique concrète and the sonic potential of everyday sounds. Ju-An Hsieh is a visual artist whose work explores ecology, colonial histories, and embodied memory through image-based practices. https://soundcloud.com/alfred-pierrot 2) JULIA HANADI AL ABED - futur détritique_sidari I walk along Sidari beach on the island of Corfu. The Adriatic Sea on my right, and the shift from one language to another and music from the beach bars on my left. The strong contemporary tourist influence is justified by the striking beauty of these landscapes. The marl and sandstone geology is constantly being shaped and deciphered by the winds and the surf into soft and hard stratified reliefs. These landscape features express themselves either from their robustness and fragility. There, gathering the ramparts of posidonia beds and small creatures i can't name, there are also objects that have clearly become marine. But I am quite certain that I can name and identify these : this future detrital geology. I read this land. Then I climb up, and immerse my ears in the underwaterlife of canal d'amour, paying close attention to this new presence, sea wind in my hair. Julia Hanadi Al Abed first engaged in acousmatic writing and field recording while walking, improvising, and wandering on the Atlantic coast with a recorder in hand. Since then, tracing voices, making use of environmental recordings and recording various sonic bodies have become the essence of her work. When performing live, she deploys different facets of electronic music practice, mapping various paths for the act of listening while spatial dimensions of sound shapes her work also with installation forms. She received commissions from Radio France, INA-GRM, and plays either in France as abroad. https://juliahanadialabed.blogspot.com/ https://juliahanadialabed.bandcamp.com/ https://www.instagram.com/dzoulia/ 3) "Kylie" Seunghyun Oh - Lady Lazarus Underwater Translation is a work of channeling; yet, going through such a process, languages travel over time and space, are distorted, and given rebirth. I composed a sound piece over my mother’s voice reading her own translation of Sylvia Plath’s poem, “Lady Lazarus”. I also painted a painting, linked to my synesthetic perception of the poem, and connected it as a visual for the piece. The poet’s poem goes through a death and resurrection while being translated and spoken in my mother’s voice and her mother tongue. I try to listen to the women’s voice from the former generation and the prominent Western culture; distorted, disseminated, repressed, vandalized, and fetishized, yet still powerful. It feels like trying to listen to the voice underwater. When I try to recreate it, I inevitably destroy it. However, something new is born from my hands - again. "Kylie" Seunghyun Oh was born in 1996 in Seoul, South Korea, and is currently based in Cologne, Germany. Born to a heritage of a grandmother who wrote and a mother who translates literature and paints, she defines herself as a multidisciplinary young woman artist, thriving between the mediums such as sound, music, visuals, literature, language, etc. Influenced by the experience of living with synesthesia and also living in different countries, such as the US and Japan, she speaks to the world with her non-linear identity through multimedia and multilingualism. https://www.instagram.com/kylieoh.sonic/ https://kylieoh.bandcamp.com/ Radiophrenia Shorts 15B Radiophrenia Shorts 15B 19 September 2026 8:30 am - 9:00 am 1 Chloe Turpin - Amygdala hijack (woos woos swallow) (7:52) 2 Randa Megahed – Dabab (10:26) 3 Matheus Montanari - What is left (3:31) 4 Zouning Anne Liao - Dust Storm (5:34) 5 Water Feature - Various Birds - eastern meadow warbler (1:20) 1) Chloe Turpin - Amygdala hijack (woos woos swallow) Amygdala Hijack (Woos Woos Swallow) is an experimental sound piece and part of Soft Tissue, a series of audio works exploring voice experiments and the emotional charge of speech. Treating language as texture and rhythm, it shifts between spoken and sung fragments, threading the mundane through the lyrical. Weaving freely documentary fragments, found sound and poetic composition, Amygdala Hijack is less a story to follow than a space to inhabit. Chloe Turpin is a London-based sound artist and composer. With a background in fine art and performance, her practice spans music production, radio, performance and documentary with a focus on experimental audio storytelling. Her work explores emotional tension in voice and language, shaping meaning through tone, rhythm, fragmentation and silence. Weaving composed sound, spoken voice and documentary forms, she treats listening as an embodied-affective experience. She holds an MFA from Goldsmiths College and an MA in Audio Storytelling from UCL. Her feature Shorn Women was selected for the Charles Parker Prize and a 2025 Highlight by audio curation platform XMTR. https://linktr.ee/chloeonzloh 2) Randa Megahed – Dabab The title, meaning “fog” in Arabic, refers to the central image guiding the work: a dense, shifting mass that disturbs perception, changes in texture and volume, and allows forms to appear, fade, and disappear. Rooted in a research practice focused on residue: what is peripheral, rejected, or set aside, the piece brings background noise, remnants, and sonic debris to the foreground. Recordings from the artist’s grandmother’s damaged cassette tapes become both an intimate archive and a primary sound material. Through these degraded and unstable sources, Dabab explores loss, erosion, and disappearance, as well as quieter themes such as home, familiarity, memory, and nostalgia. Composed in two movements, the work combines processed field recordings from the artist’s domestic environment with manipulated archival materials, in which repetition, noise, accidents, and the physicality of tape are deliberately emphasized. Through processes of editing, transformation, and reappropriation, Dabab questions how damaged and unwanted sounds. Randa Megahed (1997) is a sound and visual artist based between Paris and Cairo. Her practice spans installation, performance, video, image, and sound sculpture, exploring obsolescence, fragility, memory, and the poetic and political potential of residue. She works with degraded images, family archives, repurposed electronics, and unstable sound devices. Megahed holds a Master’s in Musical Creation and Sound Art from Université Gustave Eiffel and INA GRM, a Master in Fine Arts from ESÄ Tourcoing, a Bachelor in Media Design from the German University in Cairo, and a pedagogical diploma (CFPI). Her work has been shown in Berlin, Marseille & Cairo https://www.instagram.com/randa.megahed/ 3) Matheus Montanari - What is left A binaural composition crafted from the remnants of a rare phenomenon: the cooperative fishing between humans and wild dolphins in Southern Brazil, one of the last examples of such interspecies collaboration globally. In this context, the fishers develop a type of multispecies kinship, where the dolphins are named and considered family members. The audio consists of underwater recordings and fishermen's accounts of deceased dolphins, processed by noise-reducing Artificial Intelligence. In a critical gesture, the work reverses technological logic: it discards the “clean” human voice and amplifies only the “noise” excluded by the algorithm (animal sounds and technical glitches). The resulting soundscape consists of filtered artifacts poised on the liminal threshold between what is still audible and what has already been lost. Matheus Montanari is a Brazilian artist and holds a PhD in Visual Arts from the University of São Paulo. He is a member of the Poéticas Digitais group (USP) and the Multimedia Anthropology Lab at University College London. He was a Leonardo Imagination Fellow and is part of the group documenting the Cooperative Fishing with Dolphins (IPHAN, CANOA-UFSC). His artistic practice investigates the relationship between art, technology, and life in complex ecological contexts through the notion of technobiodiversity.

Dust storms are violent, mesmerizing phenomena—walls of wind-borne earth that reshape both landscape and perception. This composition seeks to capture the duality of their nature: the immense, chaotic energy they unleash and the microscopic precision of the dust itself, suspended in turbulence. On a metaphorical level, the piece explores erosion—not just of land, but of memory, identity, and form. As with a dust storm, boundaries blur. Sound becomes sediment. Structure is worn away until only traces remain. Zouning is a composer and sound designer whose music reflects her fascination with natural phenomena, cycles of life, the materiality of sound, and the evolving relationship between humans, technology, and the environment. Driven by a curiosity about the expressive potential of electronic circuits, she is passionate about DIY electronics, building her own sensor instruments to explore new sonic possibilities shaped by physical gestures. annlzn.com 5) Water Feature - Various Birds - eastern meadow warbler A collection of somewhat convincing birdsong and foley created entirely on a small battery-powered drum machine. Many imaginary and fanciful 'species' including the Pond Bather, Golden Nuthatch and Brown Yipper are featured. A long-form sound collage of many species is the central work, and 'close-ups' are also included. In one sense the project is a sincere tribute to bird identification records and tapes one would find in garden centres in the 90s, of which the artists have a large collection. In another sense it is an uncanny objection to a contemporary relationship with nature that romanticises and objectifies it from a safe distance. The sounds have been sampled in records by other artists, used in an extended arrangement for an installation in the Jardin Des Plantes in Paris, presented with narration by a supposed ornithologist, and are played constantly via an internet radio station. Water Feature is a 'collage band' formed of several contributors, creating utopian, absurd and low-fidelity environmental(ist) music. There is a strong reactionary and naive spirit to the project which aims to replace lifeless, boring, synthetic ambient music with an alternative chaotic, colourful and organic musique concrète. Recording and composition revolves around improvisation with cheap gear, tape-splicing and other uncivilised practices and accidents. 3 records (including Various Birds) have been released through the DIY Morsels label/collective. https://variousbirds.net https://morsels.website https://www.instagram.com/morsels.website/ Annea Lockwood, Maria Fusco and Margaret Salmon - History of the Present & On Fractured Ground Annea Lockwood, Maria Fusco and Margaret Salmon - History of the Present & On Fractured Ground 19 September 2026 9:00 am - 9:40 am An audio work comprising two intertwined pieces made by writer Maria Fusco, artist-filmmaker Margaret Salmon and composer Annea Lockwood – ‘History of the Present’ & ‘On Fractured Ground.’   'On Fractured Ground', 2023 - sounding the piece walls, composed by Annea Lockwood from field recordings made in 2022 by Pedro Rebelo, Giorgios Varoutsos and Annea Lockwood for History of the Present.   ‘History of the Present Process Conversation’ - a longitudinal record of process conversations between Maria Fusco, Annea Lockwood and Margaret Salmon during the making of the film History of the Present.   ‘History of the Present’ (2023) is a feminist experimental opera-film co-directed by Maria Fusco and Margaret Salmon with new music by Annea Lockwood. This intersectional, intergenerational feminist work forefronts working-class women’s voices to ask: who has the right to speak, and in what way? Layering sociological, cultural, and political themes from the recent history of Northern Ireland, the work exercises voice, breath and field-recording composition through a range of film techniques and operatic articulations, to amplify marginalised stories. Made on 35mm and video in the streets of Belfast, the Ulster Museum and the Royal Opera House in London, History of the Present observes how defensive architecture defines movement to enforce intersectional histories and identities within daily experiences in conflict and post-conflict zones on an international level. Artist bios: Maria Fusco's interdisciplinary work spans the registers of critical, fiction and performance writing; she has authored six books, and written and directed four major performance works. Margaret Salmon is a multidisciplinary artist, solo exhibitions of her work have been held at institutions including Secession, (2023), and DCA (2018/19). Annea Lockwood (b. 1939) is an acclaimed New Zealand-born American composer based in upstate New York. Her lifelong fascination with the visceral effects of sound in our environments and through our bodies—the way sounds unfold and their myriad life spans.

Guided only byhis intuition and knack for woodworking, he created an instrument that fosteredmy love of harp folk music and ultimately set me on my future career path(albeit in an indirect way). Made from the materials he had to hand - soft pinewood and fishing wire – the instrument can no longer be tuned; the hard metaltuning pegs (read: washers and bolts) having sunk into the pale wood. However,its musical life has taken on a new dimension in Wire and Pine. The work movesfrom exploring its recognisable sound source to a dense and reverent soundworld. The harp’s plucks and scratches are joined by a chorus of morose voices.Finally, fishing wire flies as the notes become unbound. Artist bio: ALEXIS WEAVER (she/her) is a composer, sound artist and educator based inSydney, Australia. A composer of electroacoustic music, Alexis has alsocomposed soundtracks for animation, short film, theatre, dance, and mostnotably a series of podcasts for Australian companies ARN, Amplify, SunnyStudios and Shameless Media, as well as Spotify.

Hacked books unlock the transmissions between three women living on separate continents during a global climate crises that lasts 200 years. The stories represent a dissolving past (1953, UK), an urgent present, (2053, US) and a speculative future (2153, AUS). Examining the layered transmissions and abandoned traces, we invite you to consider possibilities for an alternative utopian future and first steps to building it. 1953 The story is set in Suffolk, UK. It reflects on the past, focusing on the 1953 North Sea floods. The greatest natural disaster in England since WW2, the sea level rose up to five metres; 307 lives were lost in a storm surge affecting 500 miles of the East Anglian coast. Voices of survivors are mingled with those of local people who have recently experienced the increasingly frequent local flooding. Marking generations with loss, the flood permanently changed the physical landscape, forming new creeks and lagoons. Scientists predict that sea level rise will alter the East Anglian coastline much more radically over the next fifty to a hundred years unless mitigated. 2053 Set in Southern California in 2053, an isolated woman composes letters to her friends in the form of underground transmissions about the daily struggles of living in an environment scourged by human-caused environmental disasters. Seeking connection, she searches the airwaves for a recipe for water, news about global collapse, small hints of regeneration. Already plagued by drought and fires in 2021, California’s ongoing severe drought punctuated by heavy rains caused by climate change is an unremitting reality. 2040 is considered the year of the global tipping point, when 1.5 C (2.7 F) of global heating will bring irreversible changes in global ecosystems, food networks, extinctions, air quality, floods and droughts. The letters convey a life just beyond the tipping point, with the last one implying a farewell along with a plea for collective vibrations for healing. 2153 This story builds on a speculative future. In an iced-over desert in Australia a lone figure walks, contemplating their immediate present, impermanence and loss. Thundereggs, formed over millions of years, and the feathers of a yellow-tailed black cockatoo draw a connection between deep time and the fragility of life. The changes we have imposed on the delicate balance of nature will be impacting the world for centuries, perhaps millenia, to come. Our self-interested actions are not what they seem. What we wish for might be self-soothing illusions. What kind of world do we—do you— want to live in? What will we tell our future selves? As the earth hums, rebuilding itself, what will be left behind?

Through improvisation, she draws together a range of vocal influences while responding to the energetic presence of the baby in utero. The work borrows common vocables found in lullabies (lōris) across Indian languages, with the Tamil sounds aararo and aariraro forming the root of the improvisation. These converge with Singh's experience of icaros used in Amazonian plant medicine ceremonies, alongside improvisational and expanded vocal techniques, including mumble rap, protolanguage, babbling, nonsense vocalisation, and other cross-cultural vocal practices. ‘aariraro’ unfolds as a non-semantic, repetitive field of vowels, consonants, hums, breath, and silence—a dense, multivalent sonic landscape that moves between tenderness and intensity. Bio Dr Nicola Singh is a performance artist, experimental vocalist, and educator based between the UK and Tamil Nadu, India. She works across performance, pedagogy, exhibitions, sound works, film, and text. Her research focuses on improvisatory vocal forms, cross-cultural ritual vocal practices, embodied ways of knowing and communicating, and the limits of language. Singh is the current Adrian Piper Research Fellow (2025–2026). Recent projects include a solo exhibition at Cubitt Gallery, London (2025), a group exhibition at Listen Gallery, Glasgow (2025), performances at Fierce Festival, Leeds (2025), and a residency at SPACE Studio, Gujarat (2024). She holds a practice-led PhD in Performance Writing from Northumbria University (2017), an MA in Curating Performance from the University of Sunderland (2011), and a BA (Hons) from Dartington College of Arts (2010). She has undertaken residencies at Hospitalfield and Porthmeor Studios, and received awards including the UK/Korea British Council programme and the 3-Phase Artist Award. Singh’s work has been acquired by the Government Art Collection (2021). sonomayrit - La Font Antiga sonomayrit - La Font Antiga 19 September 2026 11:00 am - 11:30 am La Font Antiga documents Crevillente’s historical hydraulic system, which was inherited from the Andalusian period. It focuses on the qanawaat, underground aqueducts that carried water from mountain springs to the town center for centuries. However, in the 1970s, the industrial extraction of water from the northern part of the aquifer drastically reduced the availability of this resource. This caused the gradual deterioration of galleries, irrigation ditches, aqueducts, and mills. This transformation affected not only the landscape and ecosystem but also the collective memory of the community that depended on these infrastructures. Through field recordings, sound maps, acoustic analysis, and interviews, the project reconstructs and contextualizes the evolution, disappearance, and social impact of this historical infrastructure. The project addresses how water and its sounds constitute a tangible and intangible heritage that connects memory, territory, and community. I propose a radio narrated version of this sound piece, similar to the video attached. Artist bio: sonomayrit is a radio producer and sonic researcher focused on the interconnections of the Mediterranean region. His collaborative projects explore the parallels between tradition, sonic experimentation and socio-cultural narratives. Over the past six years he has worked with artists, radio stations and cultural institutions, curating and producing radio shows, live performances, listening sessions, installations and more.

The idea emerged out of live sessions of his ‘mutant dancehallʼ project “Dhangsha” where he often plays non-metric passages to transition between his beat orientated tracks. Using a piece of kit called the “Microgranny,” he explores the nether regions of sound: the cracks and crevasses that exist in a sample waveform. When he detunes an already lo-fi fragment, a foreboding landscape opens up, often with the release of significant artefacts. Real-time adjustment of the parameters - bit-crushing and granular shifting - creates a further sense of disorder. For Aniruddha, the studio door always remains open to the world. “Offcuts From Reality” is a frequency analysis of the emotional and political state of Britain in the early 2020s. The insistent geiger-like glitch that permeates the set represents unprecedented levels of social anxiety and frustration, the brooding bass an all pervading sense of dread and the crush distortion spontaneous outbursts of anger and animosity. Matt Robin - Cave of Devotion (Diaphane Mix) Matt Robin - Cave of Devotion (Diaphane Mix) 19 September 2026 12:00 pm - 12:30 pm Ancient Celts imagined sound bouncing off a cliff face or cavern wall as a child birthed by the stone. In Scottish Gaelic the word for “Echo” is “Mac-Talla” — "The Son of the Rock”. It’s an elemental spirit, the living voice of the wilderness connected to the human world. When a bard played a lament, the landscape was believed to answer back, as if the land itself were moved to grief, memory, and participation. This piece was recorded inside Cathedral Cave on the Isle of Eigg, a vast volcanic sea cave beneath the pitchstone ridge of An Sgùrr. Known in Gaelic as Uamh na Chràbhaidh (“Cave of Devotion”), this resonant basalt chamber has long been associated with ritual gathering. Within this resonant space, a shruti box produces a slow, steady drone: By pumping air through the bellows of the instrument, the vibrating reeds awaken the cave’s own acoustic body. The sound is shaped by the cave as its reflections and resonances fold back into the performance, transforming it into a dialogue with stone. The recording is then turned back on itself. A secondary cave-captured drone becomes an impulse response, turning the cavern’s acoustic fingerprint into a sonic filter. Processed further through tape, the piece accumulates layers of acoustic memory, spectral traces in which the cave seems to sing its own memory. Diaphane, from the Greek diaphanēs (“that which allows something to pass through”), understands the cave as a medium. In myth, caves were liminal spaces where the boundaries between human and divine, solid and fluid, visible and invisible became permeable. Abodes of nymphs, gods, and dangerous creatures, where ancestors heard the voices of their deities in the resonant acoustics of the stone. The drone becomes a conduit between the human and the more-than-human, transforming the cave into an active participant in dialogue. It is a (re)connection with a spatial artefact of geological history that invites us to listen deeply to the stone into a state of transformation and metamorphosis. A Radiophrenia commission produced with the support of Creative Scotland. Biography: Matt Robin is a sound artist and composer working with electronics, field recordings, and percussion. His practice, both solo and collaborative, centers on exploring complexity through minimal means, using restraint to reveal sonic detail. Guided by curiosity, he explores the textures and tonal possibilities of acoustic and electronic tools through close listening and experimentation. He is a member of NEY, a Glasgow-based trio whose work combines voice, (electro)acoustic instruments, electronics, field recordings, and live processing. NEY has released music on the label Somewhere Press, performed in Glasgow, London, and Berlin, undertaken a residency at Grabowsee in Germany, and collaborated with Colombian-born, Miami-based experimental sound artist Doris Dana. Matt currently collaborates with artist Shola von Reinhold, weaving harp, percussion, electronics and voice. Their work explores delicate threads and sudden ruptures, where chaos coils around fragility and entanglement becomes both method and outcome. Machine Listening - Voyce Walkr Machine Listening - Voyce Walkr 19 September 2026 12:30 pm - 1:00 pm Voyce Walkr by Machine Listening is a reimagining of Russel Hoban’s post-apocalyptic 1980 novel Riddley Walker, updated, reworked, and distilled in response to our technological present. The work recasts Hoban’s nuclear devastation as a collapse brought on by carbon capitalism and techno-solutionism. The environment is ravaged, language has warped and degraded, and computing and other advanced technologies have vanished. Society is now organised around a myth about the causes of the collapse – The User Story – broadcast daily over a rudimentary radio network made from salvaged parts. This is the ‘voyce walking’ of the work’s title. The piece evokes radio’s various golden age(s) at the same time as the story imagines radio as a crude post-apocalyptic medium, far in the future. Time has been deliberately scrambled. Cloned children tell of coming ‘infomayshun barms’ on vintage radios. Old stories of dystopian futures tuned in to the anxieties of the present. Artist bio: Machine Listening is a platform for collaborative research and artistic experimentation, founded in 2020 by Sean Dockray, James Parker, and Joel Stern in order to subject automated systems to political and aesthetic scrutiny. The collective works across writing, installation, performance, music, software, curation, pedagogy, and radio. Our work has been presented at major institutions including the Australian Centre for Contemporary Art, Cricoteka Tadeusz Kantor Museum (Kraków), Warsaw Museum of Modern Art, Galerie Nord (Berlin), the National Communication Museum, RMIT Design Hub, and MUMA. And we have performed at Unsound Festival, Soft Centre, and Melbourne Recital Centre, among others. https://machinelistening.exposed/ Radiophrenia Shorts 31A Radiophrenia Shorts 31A 19 September 2026 1:00 pm - 1:30 pm 1 Boris Allenou - Acous-tick (20:00) 2 John Roach - Northfork Wind Sketch 1 - Sail (17:50) 1) Boris Allenou - Acous-tick In 2024–2025, I received a Fellowship at the University of Surrey, where I collaborated with the brilliant virologiste who apens to be my life partner Dr Marine Petit. Together we've developed an unusual project: turning climate data into sound. We created a musical piece that captures how global warming affects UK ticks. Using mathematical models and field recordings, I composed abstract music representing a tick's lifecycle. By adjusting environmental parameters like temperature and humidity, this composition transforms, creating a sonic interpretation of climate change's impact on tick populations. It's an experiment in making invisible ecological shifts audible. The work sits somewhere between art and science, offering a listening experience that's both musical and data-driven: a way to feel, not just understand, how our warming world is reshaping nature around us. https://www.ias.surrey.ac.uk/fellows/boris-allenou/ I'm a sound artist exploring how deep listening and sonic ecology shift perception—how connecting with soundscapes reshapes our awareness of place, community, and environment. My practice treats sound not just as medium, but as ecosystem: dynamic, relational, connecting people to each other and the world they inhabit. At heart, I believe sound creation and listening can be active, political, and gentle. A refusal to rush. A refusal to consume. A refusal to be reduced to signal. My work gestures toward subtle resistance: attention as defiance, listening as autonomy, presence as freedom. https://borisallenou.com/acoustick/ https://www.instagram.com/borisallenou/ https://linktr.ee/borisallenou 2) John Roach - Northfork Wind Sketch 1 - Sail “Sail” is a work in progress and part of an ongoing series about wind. Voices in order of appearance: Arden Scott, Thomas Halcinszcy, Brian Tuthill, Carole Monsell, Christopher Scott All other sounds were derived, in one way or another, by the wind. “Sail” was created during the Uncommon Arts Residency at the Sound View in January 2026 in Greenport, NY on the North Fork of Long Island. John Roach is an interdisciplinary artist with a particular interest in sound and multisensory experience and he builds environments that blur the line between what we see and what we hear. His sound compositions often focus on themes related to ecological systems, biodiversity and climate and exist in a space between electroacoustic music, documentary and experimental radio art. These pieces, shaped by a playful embrace with uncertainty, bring together his field recording practice, instrumental passages, and conversations with artists, scientists, writers, historians and others. https://johnroach.net/ https://www.instagram.com/johnroachart Radiophrenia Shorts 31B Radiophrenia Shorts 31B 19 September 2026 1:30 pm - 2:00 pm 1 Ali Rennie - Station 44 (12:52) 2 K Angel - Untitled until we get to the very end and I know if you're still with me (3:46) 3 Marjorie Van Halteren - What I Found on Pluto (3:38) 4 Paul Collins - Radio Spots - Quel horaire (1:00) 1) Ali Rennie - Station 44 "Station 44" is a soundscape composition that uses a range of techniques for electromagnetic sonification. Its focus is the transmitting station on the topographical elevation of Mormond Hill in the furthest extremities of North East Scotland. Mormond Hill is the site of assorted communications masts and is the historical location of a Cold War facility known as Station 44. "Station 44" incorporates the themes of the Cold War while speculating on the secret operations of the British and American military in relation to unexplained phenomena in the North East region. It is a part-factual, part-fictional soundscape depiction of the secret history of the Mormond Hill facility, using several electromagnetic sonification techniques to convey a full range of acoustic paradigms, namely: the hauntological Cold War atmosphere of the site; the tapering metallic lacework of the phantasmagoric "antenna farm"; and the unofficial legacies of UFO activity in the North East region. Ali Rennie is a sound artist and composer from Aberdeenshire, Scotland, who specialises in creating works derived from paranormal phenomena and different sources of electromagnetic activity. Rennie has an MSc in Sound Shaping and Audiovisual Practice from the University of Glasgow and has a PhD in sonic arts from the University of Aberdeen. He has released several albums under the name of Ruptured World with the cinematic dark ambient record label Cryo Chamber and is also known as a writer of weird fiction, publishing the novel "BleakWarrior" in 2016 and the fiction collection "Hardweird" in 2024. dralirennie.com rupturedworld.com 2) K Angel - Untitled until we get to the very end and I know if you're still with me The warp of a wormhole.

Random FM stations, in both Canada and France, were recorded and then manipulated using a variety of experimental methods and techniques. These one minute radio-spots are not designed to be played as a continous piece, but as individual elements, punctuating a day's programming or broadcast. A minute here, a minute there. Paul Collins is a Toronto-born, Paris-based visual artist and musician. His paintings are represented by General Hardware Contemporary, Toronto. His prints are published by Michael Woolworth Publications, Paris. His most recent recording, Bez Vremena (2025), with Quentin Rollet and Marija Kovacevic, is now out on Astre d'Or Records.

Alone with his books, machines and a patchy understanding of the human anatomy, he sets out on an arduous quest to synthesise the human voice. As he traverses the deep history of speech science, his experiments grow unstable, feverish and strange. Points of Articulation is an experimental radio drama exploring the politics and poetics of synthesised speech. Based on an Elizabethan stage play about a scholar who makes a pact with the devil to make a brass statue speak, the piece explores a history of speaking machines and our changing attitudes towards them. Artist bio: Seth Scott is a sound designer and composer who uses programming, writing, audio recording, and musical performance to explore the manifold relationships between sound and technology. His work takes a range of forms, including fixed media and concert music, sound installations, interactive mobile apps and performances. Seth’s work has been exhibited across the UK in venues including the Barbican Centre, Serpentine Gallery, Bloomberg Space, and BBC Maida Vale.

It includes re-narration by Sylvia Milo of text from DIY instructional videos, revealing unintended references to environmental damage. This immersive recording (stereo, surround, or binaural) captures an ideal installation of the piece played through transducers attached to off-the-shelf panels made from these same materials — plywood, foam insulation, polycarbonate, acoustic tile, gravel, and galvanized steel — which become speakers that give each channel the distinct coloration of its substance. All sonic materials are fragmented and spatialized, centering the listener in this constructed landscape. “Earthworks” consists of seven continuous movements, but any may be extracted to play alone or in combination. Artist bio: Nathan Davis "writes music that deals deftly and poetically with timbre and sonority" (NY Times). Working across concert pieces, sound installations, and music for theater and dance, he has received premieres and commissions at Lincoln Center, the Park Avenue Armory, Guggenheim Museum, Donaueschinger Musiktage, Acht Brücken Köln, Aspekte Salzburg, Helsinki Musica Nova, Darmstadt, and Audio Art Krakow. Albums of his music released on Infrequent Seams, Sono Luminus, Starkland, Tundra, New Focus, and Bridge. Fellowships at the Bogliasco Foundation, Camargo Foundation, GMEM in Marseille, New Music USA, NYSCA, Meet The Composer, Fromm Foundation, Jerome Foundation, American Music Center, MATA, and ASCAP.

In my work, I move through layered narratives and porous sonic worlds of references. The show translates that approach to radio, bringing voice forward as both agency and material, letting language drift between sense and sound so writing is met through listening. Episodes start from a defined literary world and build their own atmosphere and internal logic, drawing on practices of interiority and duration, from Clarice Lispector to Luc Ferrari. I imagine beginning with a three-chapter arc. The first chapter pair is House of Day, House of Night by Olga Tokarczuk and Effi Briest by Theodor Fontane, treated as environments rather than narratives. Each program develops through fragments, misreadings, sonic translations, and shifts in voice, moving between language, sound, and silence. Glossolalia is an invitation, a space where literature, sound, and listening destabilize one another. Artist bio: Zeynep Toraman is a composer and writer based in Berlin. Her work moves between composition, text, and sound, unfolding layered narratives, material histories, and intimate forms of listening. Drawing on literature, philosophy, and autobiography, she treats voice and memory as compositional material. Her music has been presented internationally and developed with many ensembles and performers. She has released music with labels including Obscure & Terrible, Sawyer Editions, and Superpang. She holds a PhD in Music Composition from Harvard University and has taught at the Institute for Electronic Music and Acoustics in Graz.

The complete work open the musical sound of the words. Luigi Morleo (born 16 November 1970 in Mesagne, Province of Brindisi) is an Italian percussionist and composer of contemporary music, who lives in Bari and teaches at the Niccolò Piccinni Conservatory. He uses varied musical and artistic styles like minimalism, rock- cross-over, folk-Pop, jazz, electronica and DJ. The focus of his projects is on the problems of society and the various rights of humanity. Many of his works have been played by the Maracaibo Symphony Orchestra- Venezuela, Rome and the Lazio Orchestra-ITALY, Clermont-Ferrand Conservatoire Orchestre- France, Denver Young Artists Orchestra-USA, Ensemble for New Music of National Music Academy of Ukraine, https://www.instagram.com/luigimorleomusic/ 2) Isabel Val Sánchez and Gigi Morralla - Antenna for Microwaves In Antenna for microwaves, we take the use of the semiotics of the kitchen as a living and working space for recording, listening and transcendence. Microwaves and DYI/DIWO antennas enter into conversation and become synthesizers that are activated only through the performativity of the body that initiates the piece. Thus, the domestic space is once again vindicated as a space for collectivity and listening while at the same time it becomes a portal to imagine everything that humanly escapes from our senses but permeates us constantly in infinite ways of forms and spectrums. This recorded performance draws bridges between the domestic and the divine. We invoke disembodied presences through the manipulation of electromagnetic waves that travel through the ether. Thus, we reclaim the esoteric character of electricity by transforming household appliances into ritualistic elements that invite us to rethink listening as an experience of collective transcendence. Isabel Val Sánchez. Artist and cultural organizer with a special interest in everything that amplifies human sensorial and affective abilities. She is also a founder member of The Guild of Hydrosemiosis and works with Mireia Molina Costa as Cossos d’Aigua (Bodies of Water), researching sound and hydrofeminism. Gigi Morralla. DJ, music producer, cultural manager. In her artistic practice, she claims morralla (junk) as what has been overlooked from the margins, and from there, it takes stances.

The work combines cinematic sound design, electroacoustics, field recordings and a minimal narration that conflates performed dialogue and descriptive texts, exploring the liminal space between diegetic and non-diegetic sound. We hear warning sounds that indicate something is coming. What is coming is not specifically revealed, but left open for interpretation. With the many contemporary conflicts and issues around invasion, security and threats against sovereignty, this is an abstracted warning to listen (and watch and read about) the warning signs around us. Matt Warren is an Australian electronic media artist, musician, radio show producer, curator, writer and educator, based in nipaluna/Hobart, lutruwita/Tasmania. His art practice encompasses immersive electronic installation, single channel video and sound works. The work investigates memory, transcendence, liminal spaces and suspension of disbelief. Warren considers his art and installation practice as part of a greater context aligned to psychedelia, digital abstraction and hauntology. His music and sound practice has a basis in both composition and improvisation. He performs and records electro-acoustic and drone works, solo under his own name and collaborates with others under a number of monikers. https://www.mattwarrenartist.com Bandcamp: https://roomofsilencerecords.bandcamp.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/mattwarrenartist Instagram: http://instagram.com/mattdwarren 4) Jamie Lee - Tusheti Loops Tusheti Loops is a sound piece made during a workshop residency in the Tusheti region of Georgia. Crossing into the Electric Magnetic is a 10 day workshop in experimental electronic music practice taking place at the AqTushetii Artist Residency, Omalo, Republic of Georgia. Featuring field recordings made during trips to nearby sites and local festivals, the composition responds to the natural rhythms of the remote landscape as well as the socio-political context of the region, its cultural heritage and folk traditions. Jamie Lee (b. Bristol; based in South London) works across sound, moving image, photography, installation and printmaking. His hybrid practice is rooted in the history, context and design details of various sites and questions how places are constructed by the interaction of found objects, bodies and the architecture that contains them. Past projects involve recording the results of performances with cymbals on cliffs along the South Coast of the UK, where huge, monolithic concrete forms known colloquially as ‘Sound Mirrors’ represent the leaps in technological advancement during wartime. His music is released on record label Mortality Tables (2025). jamieleeartist.com https://www.instagram.com/jamie_leeartist/ 5) rikardfvs - the strange little train at Charles de Gaulle-airport (radiophrenia-2026-version) The piece "the strange little train at Charles de Gaulle Airport" was originally released on a Sounds for The Soul field recording compilation during 2025. This is a new version in which the composer have tried to enhance the piece's dreamlike and magic properties. The audio is a field recording recorded during a trip with the small CDGVAL shuttle train that runs between the terminals at the Charles de Gaulle airport. It is a small custom-made train with no seats in which passengers and their bags stand close together. The piece investigates traveling and very short and close meetings between people from all over the world. The buzzing of the small electric train mixes with important messages regarding travel and how to behave at an airport and with the happy or nervous or angry voices of the passengers. Rikard Friberg von Sydow, or "rikardfvs," which is the handle he uses when creating music, is a composer and researcher from Uppsala, Sweden. His music moves between ambient landscapes and pulsating electronics. He likes minor keys, raw textures, and dissonance and is in constant movement between beauty and destruction. rikardfvs has released several works on different netlabels during recent years. Every second week he records the radio show “Nya Ljud” for Camp Radio. In his research, he has, among many other things, published articles on the Electronic Voice Phenomenon. https://arkivfeber.se/ https://soundcloud.com/rikardfvs bsky: https://bsky.app/profile/rikardfvs.bsky.social zozoTransistor - Water Tekno zozoTransistor - Water Tekno 19 September 2026 5:00 pm - 5:30 pm In Water Tekno zozoTransistor pokes holes into water sachets that drip into buckets with contact microphones on them. The emerging polyrhythms continuously morph in rhythm and sound: once set in motion, the sound installation is a perpetuum mobile which over time changes due to loss of water pressure in the bags, change of hole size and increasing water quantity in the buckets. In the performance, zozoTransistor is in conversation with this soundscape through distortion, dance, chanting, touching and turning lights on and off. What you hear here is an audio documentation of these living incantations. Water Tekno has developed between Switzerland and Ghana and is an ongoing project. This audio piece comes after a series of live performances in Bern and Kumasi. Next will be the Water Tekno album release on Prefer music and Water Tekno as a durational performance of one month. Artist bio: zozoTransistor is interested in how magic is made and practices an art that reveals the crafting behind states of ecstasy and trance, rather than hiding it. In Water Tekno, z interacts with the substance of morphing polyrhythms as if it were a code that, through relating with it in this intense way, can give access to multi-sensorial orchestration as an epistemology.

The idea emerged out of live sessions of his ‘mutant dancehallʼ project “Dhangsha” where he often plays non-metric passages to transition between his beat orientated tracks. Using a piece of kit called the “Microgranny,” he explores the nether regions of sound: the cracks and crevasses that exist in a sample waveform. When he detunes an already lo-fi fragment, a foreboding landscape opens up, often with the release of significant artefacts. Real-time adjustment of the parameters - bit-crushing and granular shifting - creates a further sense of disorder. For Aniruddha, the studio door always remains open to the world. “Offcuts From Reality” is a frequency analysis of the emotional and political state of Britain in the early 2020s. The insistent geiger-like glitch that permeates the set represents unprecedented levels of social anxiety and frustration, the brooding bass an all pervading sense of dread and the crush distortion spontaneous outbursts of anger and animosity. Irena Tomažin - "a voice as a shadow, a voice as a memory" Irena Tomažin - "a voice as a shadow, a voice as a memory" 19 September 2026 6:00 pm - 6:30 pm In my work I am trying over and over again to listen and to hear different and not so obvious landscapes of human voice. Landscapes of voices that are not so audible in the foreground of our ability to listen but are more present as some kind of shadows - it's not only that we try to hide those voices (un)consciously, but more as if they are so present that we don't perceive them anymore. Or as if they would be so obvious to our everyday sound landscapes, that we don’t hear them… could be also as if they don’t deserve our attention anymore. On the other hand when speaking of voice we always seem to think of the most obvious dimension - the audio dimension… In a Slovene language there exists a word “tišina” that means silence, but there is also a word “molk” that at least English translation doesn’t have an equal word for it - the closest would be “remaining silent”. In German there is die Stille for silence and das Schweigen for “molk”. But in French, Spanish, Italian language the distinction between the silence and molk / das Scweigen doesn’t exist.And “molk” / “das Schweigen” belong to voice - so there is a voice or words to say or need to explain something, but for various reasons one “remains silent”, because one doesn’t find the right words, because it is too hard or too emotional or too overwhelming to be even able to speak, or because one doesn’t want to speak up… So I find “molk” as a state of a valid voice presence, that doesn’t have its existence in audio reality, but is still very much present. An absence that is present - one can witness it in the gestures, body positions, face expressions - it’s obvious, but just not through audio dimension. So how to acknowledge the absence in the audio work? the absence that is not just silence but also "molk" as remaining silent? Seems like somehow the dis-placed task or need … even incorrect assignment. I do hear a lot of “remaining silent” in my voice… maybe it is a certain colour of the voice or a certain dynamic or motion in the voice… However at the moment - this moment does last for quite some time now - I am obsessed with voice that remains silent to a certain extent. So this work: “a voice as a shadow, a voice as a memory” is somehow made from three parts: Voice when I was old and cold Voice when I am wandering and questioning Voice when I will be as an absence of my self projecting myself Nothing was recorded in a studio environment, but in my everyday living places like my child's room, kitchen, hall or bathroom…with everyday background noise. All voices are mine. The final mastering was done by my long term friend and co-worker Aldo Invančič. A Radiophrenia commission produced with the support of Creative Scotland. Biography: Irena Z. Tomažin is a dancer, choreographer, performer, vocalist, singer and improviser, strongly present on the local and international scene. As a musician she made her name with solo project iT, project for voice and dictaphones, where she uses forms of songs, sound poetry, spoken word, theatre, text and performance. The project took her on the path of deconstruction of voice which she deepens as an improviser, solo artist or in various groups and collaborations, where she went further with exploration of sound and noise of the voice, textures and in-between spaces of voice, body and bodily mechanics. She performs solo or in collaborations with among others: Tomaž Grom, Lee Patterson, Xavier Charles, Christof Kurzmann, Jonas Kocher, Gaudenz Badrutt, Šalter Ensemble, Tim Blechmann, Michael Zerang, Liz Allbee, Alessandra Eramo, Ilia Belorukov, Okkyung Lee, Maja Osojnik, Christian Kesten, Ina Puntar, Dré Hočevar, Matej Bonin and others. https://it-irenatomazin.bandcamp.com/album/crying-games https://www.instagram.com/IRENAZTOMAZIN/ Mingus (Gustavo Minian) & Maru Waldhuter - De/Cierto: A Mineral Symphony of the Void Mingus (Gustavo Minian) & Maru Waldhuter - De/Cierto: A Mineral Symphony of the Void 19 September 2026 6:30 pm - 7:00 pm De/Cierto is a sound essay investigating the construction of the "desert" as a political operation of emptying. The piece traces a genealogy of the void, linking the Argentine State's 1878 foundational genocide ("Conquest of the Desert") with contemporary logics of mineral extractivism. The project is rooted in media archaeology: it employs "tuning stones" (quartz and lithium) based on galena radio principles to capture the radio frequency spectrum without external power sources. This technique enables a physical interaction with territorial vibration and the acoustics of the air. The work is structured as a live non-fiction sound piece, processing and remixing records from the National General Archive alongside field recordings and choral testimonies. De/Cierto functions as a sonic archaeology that intervenes in the frequencies of historically silenced territories, exploring the radio medium as a site of tension between the documentary archive and geological materiality. Artist bios: Maru Waldhüter is a sociologist and sound producer focused on documentary narratives and social research. She has produced non-fiction series for the Rosa Luxemburg Foundation and CELS, and was a producer at FM La Tribu for eight years. Her work explores the intersection of regional politics and sound memory. MINGUS / IDOSÔIDOS is a sound artist and researcher specializing in field recordings and media archaeology. He co-directs REMEZCLATUCIUDAD and has documented oralities across Ibero-America for platforms like Radio 3 (Spain) and Radio Tsonami (Chile). His practice investigates the auditory perception of territories and the materiality of archives.

Part fable, part vocal improvisation, this tragicomic cautionary tale navigates the mishandling of power, control, language, and a loaf of bread. As semantics get stripped to syllabics, a drumbeat rises, and lyrics fracture into half-plea, half-refrain. ‘By end of play’ touches on familial love co-opted as workplace rhetoric, bread's symbolism, and the 20th-century carnival freak show. As care curdles with control, authority gets blown out of proportion and falls into farce. Bio: Lydia Davies is an artist and writer, working across performance, sound, moving image, painting and bookmaking. Lydia is preoccupied with interpersonal dynamics, bodily gestures, and the shifting registers of voice and narration. Her work draws attention to the ways in which selves are both sustained and undone through their relations. She has recently shared live performances at Spike Island (Bristol), Fruitmarket (Edinburgh), and David Dale Gallery (Glasgow). http://www.lydiadavies.co.uk @lydiaacdavies ANIRUDDHA DAS/DSPSSSSD - BLIGHTED MEMORY Focussing on the Bengal Famine of 1943, I will examine through both sound and text, the erasure of memory as a consequence of collective trauma, or through the deliberate omission and obfuscation of historical facts and texts by different actors with certain political motivations. As a person born and brought up in London of parents emanating from the state of West Bengal, India, the geographic and cultural counterpart of Bangladesh, it always perplexed me - once I’d heard of it - how a massive event involving the unnatural deaths of 3 million people in a short span of time and within ‘living memory,’ was barely mentioned in conversations within our community, nor the subject of any commemoration or ceremonies at social events. It is barely acknowledged in the psyche of the British host community and I query its presence in any educational curricula in the UK. I will record testimonies from my Mother, now in her mid nineties, who was about 12 years old when the famine occurred and perhaps some aunts. These will be in Bengali and perhaps some in English. These won’t be used solely for literal narrative, but will also be manipulated to become part of the textural fabric of the composition. The overwhelming bedrock of the piece will be heavy bass pulsations and drones, distorted, corrupted and degraded to represent ‘blighted’ and fading memory as a parallel sonic narrative. These frequencies will interact with and amplify the meaning of the text and further illustrate the theme. I will also record my voice, edit any pre-existing commentaries, and incorporate my own live spoken word in the actual performance. I will inject some traditional motifs in to the mix, such as “dhak” (a type of Bengali “dhol” drum) and harmonium,” albeit processed and filtered to represent "cultural ghosts." Experimental sound, noise music and sound art in both West Bengal and Bangladesh is currently dynamic, thriving and significant in the wider Indian sub-continent. When I embarked on my journey in to exploratory sound seven or eight years ago, I was oblivious to the presence of these practitioners and have thus engaged in some kind of lateral development in the disapora. Clearly, my interpretation of the subject matter will be that of a second generation child of Bengali migrants living in fact in the heart of the former empire. The choice of the title “Blighted Memory” is based upon wordplay. “Blight” of course refers to something that has been ‘afflicted,’ and here pertains to damaged memory. However, it’s also appropriate as a word associated with famine or plague. But “Blighty” is also the word adopted by the British colonists in India, as an affectionate slang term for England or Britain, that derived from the Bengali word (itself acquired from Urdu) “bilayati,” which meant ‘foreign’ or ‘abroad.’ ANIRUDDHA DAS BIOG Aniruddha Das is an electronic musician active at the intersection of bass culture, experimental noise and sound art. He embarked upon his current practices approximately 8 years ago having been previously a producer, bassist and live performer in the world of electronic dance, dub and pop. With his project DSPSSSSD (“dispossessed”), he focusses on cyclical noise motifs and distressed low frequency pulsations and drones. The cassette “Offcuts From Reality” on Courier Tapes is a sonic commentary on the psychological and political state of the UK post-covid, with tracks like “Exit Wounds” referring to the debacle of Brexit and “Protection Racket” citing the PPE Scandal. It was an attempt to present the notion, anathema to some, that sound art can and should be used to convey political sentiment. DSPSSSSD emerged out of his "mutant dancehall" project Dhangsha (Bengali for ‘destruction’), where, in his live performances, he needed to create non-metric passages to transition between beat-orientated tracks. Dhangsha sees him re-purposing the components of dance music to create turbulent soundscapes that resonate beyond the confines of a club. Known for his improvisational and visceral live sets, Aniruddha has performed throughout the UK and Europe, including several times at Cafe Oto and Iklectik and at Cave12, Geneva and Industrial Coast, Middlesbrough. Festivals he has appeared at include “Electric Spring”, “Supernormal” and “Bone-Iklectik,” Barcelona. He teaches in the Department of Electronic & Produced Music at Guildhall School of Music & Drama and has run workshops in the Sound Art Department at the London College of Communication. https://www.instagram.com/dhangsha_music/ Hunda Sound - Untitled Hunda Sound - Untitled 19 September 2026 10:00 pm - 10:30 pm Found recording, reconstructed, and edited by Hunda Sound with Paul Brennen Back in 2022, I bought an old Nokia from a pawn shop in Perth with a view to making some glitchy bit-crushed melodies. Before long, I realised that far from having been wiped clean, the phone was still home to a stack of voice notes. I was sufficiently unsettled by them to take them to the police who began an investigation. Weeks later, they came back to me with the news that they’d uncovered nothing of note and suggested I’d been taken in by a hoaxer, “arts poseur” or “arts-based drug-user”. Quite possible. Then again, this is Perthshire: things happen here. Enter Radiophrenia, the ideal platform to air the recordings in all their liminal strangeness and perhaps an opportunity to connect with someone able to shed more light on the mystery. Featuring actor Paul Brennen, Untitled is Hunda Sound’s reconstruction of the Nokia voice notes based entirely on the original recordings and incorporating elements of their audio. Hoax? Fugue? Burnout? Assumption? If nothing else, these clips are another single strand in the manifold weave of Perthshire’s mythico-history. A Radiophrenia commission produced with the support of Creative Scotland. Biographies: Originated by Luke Sutherland, Hunda Sound sits at the confluence of multiple disciplines. The current primary focus is in creating art - often through improvisation, with strong entropic elements - birthed from interactions between the expressive impulse and the geography, psychogeography, history, social memory, and mythology of rural Perthshire. Paul Brennen is a RADA-trained actor, writer, director and teacher whose career spans more than three decades across theatre, film, television and audio. His stage work includes leading roles at the National Theatre, the Royal Shakespeare Company and Shakespeare’s Globe, as well as productions in London’s West End and on Broadway. His screen credits include Alien³, Men in Black: International, Borgia and The One, An accomplished voice artist, Paul played Rhalic, God of Humans, in the BAFTA-winning video game Divinity: Original Sin 2. Alongside performing, Paul directs and teaches actors internationally, with a particular passion for Shakespeare, ensemble practice and the living relationship between voice, text and imagination. Cleaver Boi and The Hungry Ghost - Triste Tuiuiú Cleaver Boi and The Hungry Ghost - Triste Tuiuiú 19 September 2026 10:40 pm - 11:00 pm Tuiuiú is the mystical bird-symbol of the Brazilian Pantanal, embodying the resilience and quiet majesty of this ancient echo system. The folktale describes the devotion and longing of the bird towards departed lovers whose love was spiritually connected to the ancient land. In this tape recording we share expansive sounds collected from the world's largest tropical wetland; a claustrophobic home-recording on female hysteria; meditative chants; and a live gallery performance on the Celtic triple goddess Brigid: healer, protector of nature, goddess of fire, water and prophecy. It's a contemplative piece where we grieve the loss of a past when people loved and respected their land, honoured their ancestors and lived more connected to one another. Artist bio: Experimental sound-art performance trio Cleaver Boi and The Hungry Ghost find inspiration delving into mythology, the natural world and supernatural phenomena to explore themes of belonging, displacement and womxnhood with processed vocals, electroacoustic and MIDI instruments, field recordings and digital effects.

(7:00) 3 Emiliano Fernandez Russo - Cuestión Contemplativa (Contemplative Matter) (20:41) 4 Dominika Glogowski & Isabella Forciniti - Transversal Sound-ness (3:05) 1) Nikos Stavropoulos - Painless/Repeat The work seeks to articulate repetition as an operative principle within the otherwise fluid, continuously transforming structure of acousmatic sound, positioning reiteration as a stasis, a hesitation and a celebration of the moment. Nikos Stavropoulos (Athens, Greece, 1975) is a composer of predominantly acousmatic and mixed music. He read music at the University of Wales (Bangor, Wales, UK), where he studied composition with Andrew Lewis and completed a doctorate at the University of Sheffield (England, UK) under the supervision of Adrian Moore. His music is performed and broadcast regularly around the world and has been awarded internationally on several occasions. His practice is concerned with notions of tangibility and immersivity in acousmatic experiences and the articulation of acoustic space, in the pursuit of probable aural impossibilities. https://www.facebook.com/nikos.stavropoulos.52 https://soundcloud.com/nikos-stavropoulos 2) The Gorgeous Pouting Mr AR - Xi'an, Xi'an, what a great place for lunch! I travelled to the city of Xi'an, China in November 2025 to deliver workshops in sound and music to students at Xi'an Academy of Fine Arts. I expected a culture shock but was pleasantly surprised to feel completely at home from the first day I arrived. Food was the key. After being picked up at the airport, my Chinese colleague Lucy took me for lunch/dinner. Lucy and I shared many delightful lunches subsequently. When not teaching or munching on lunch I embarked on some dérives around the city with a Zoom H4 and iPhone to hand. Xi'an is replete with history but my dérives were focused on food. Bite me! Or rather bite that delicious roasted sweet potato (a staple street food offering). The sound piece opens with the strident call of a noodle bar proprietor seeking customers. I hope he got a few. Unfortunately, I was full up. The Gorgeous Pouting Mr AR is a pseudonym for Ronan Breslin – a Glasgow-based producer, composer, musician and academic. Ronan is co-director of La Chunky Studio in Finnieston. In the noughties - Ronan co-composed many radio jingles and TV themes, which can still be heard on hip TV channels such as UK Gold and Dave. As a day job, Ronan runs a Masters in Sound for the Moving Image at GSA. Ronan also plays keys and produces The Tenementals, a band that explores a radical history of Glasgow. http://www.lachunky.com https://strengthinnumbersrecords.bandcamp.com/ 3) Emiliano Fernandez Russo - Cuestión Contemplativa (Contemplative Matter) "Cuestión Contemplativa (Contemplative Matter)" is a soundscape that explores the idea of spaces as sensory constructions. It reflects how real, often vastly different environments coexist and intertwine through our perceptions and thoughts. I can be sitting in my living room and imagine I am at the beach, at a party, or in the countryside. Emiliano Fernández Russo is an Image and Sound Designer (FADU, UBA), Sound Director, and Audiovisual Filmmaker. As a founding member of La Cátedra Produce and founder of Bunker Lunar, he has built a strong career in sound craft and storytelling. His work on the short film "Susto" earned him the Best Sound award at the 2025 7SIFF Festival, a film that achieved major critical acclaim including the Grand Prix. Emiliano has served as Sound Director on various projects such as "Sibilancias," "Yo, Sara," and "Vino y se fue." Having directed the short film "Toti," he is now developing its sequel. https://bunkerlunar.com/en https://open.spotify.com/intl-es/artist/797tokKsbttyNBb8q9FgHC?si=MUgdN6cIRL2OsSrwwDcy8A https://www.imdb.com/es-es/name/nm17522401/?ref_=ext_shr_lnk Instagram: @_emiliano_gabriel_ 4) Dominika Glogowski & Isabella Forciniti - Transversal Sound-ness Transversal Sound-ness is a sound collage that incorporates fragmented voices with a continuous percussion beat. Dominika Glogowski, an artist and researcher, and Isabella Forciniti, a sound artist, engage in a collaborative dialogue of phrases, sampling techniques, and granular synthesis. The words were co-created during an embodied listening seminar in Leoben, Austria, in 2024, with multidisciplinary scientists from the RE-EURECA-PRO project, following Dominika Glogowski’s Deep Speech Listening method. The sonic material alternates between disintegration, deceleration, and resumption, challenging the cognitive processes of listening and understanding to decondition the reasoning mind. The sound collage is composed in stereo but is versatile and can be adapted to multi-channel formats, including 7.1, to enhance its immersive and spatial qualities.

The approach of two creatures sparks a play of glances that unleashes a temporal metamorphosis. The tree undergoes a rapid cycle of growth and decline while time seems to stretch around it. The eyes of the brighter animal shine with intense red, marking a turning point. In the end, yet another significant visual encounter leaves the oak unchanged in its eternal cycle of life and rebirth. "Creation's Gap" invites listeners to reflect on the cyclical nature of life and the timeless flow of time through an immersive sonic experience. Simona Dichio (b. 2003, Cerignola, Italy) is an electroacoustic composer and visual artist. She began studying classical guitar at seven, later exploring percussion and electric guitar, alongside electroacoustic and experimental composition. Her works have been performed in Ecuador, Peru, Portugal, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Italy at international festivals. She graduated with a Bachelor’s in Electronic Music from the “U. Giordano” Conservatory of Foggia in October 2025 and is currently a Master’s student. In 2026, she will study in Norway for six months through an Erasmus scholarship, further developing her electroacoustic and audiovisual practice. https://www.youtube.com/@saeemon https://www.instagram.com/saeemon_?igsh=MTZpMmdpNTl0ejQ1bw%3D%3D&utm_source=qr 2) Owen Duff - Selections from The Meaning of Alexa (Ambient) - What is it like in the cloud These are selections from a long-form work I have just completed, derived from an improvised piano and vocal ‘duet’ with an Amazon smart speaker which I recorded and then processed with extreme time stretching, editing and sound design. I also included audio of what the smart speaker recorded during the duet from Amazon’s servers. With this piece I wanted to evoke in sound the space between human expression, represented by my freely improvised playing and sung questions, and AI’s understanding of it. I also wanted to explore the blurring lines between humans and the technology we have invented, and to play with the dichotomy between our ideas of freedom and a digital capitalism which has promised to deliver that freedom, but has arguably removed our liberty to reject capitalism. Owen Duff works across multiple artistic fields, from his work as a singer-songwriter with many albums and videos released over 20 years, to his work making music for screen such as the Queerty-nominated series Kissing Walls. As a sonic artist Owen was Highly Commended in the 'Composed with Sound' category at Sound of the Year Awards in 2023, created the sound art/poetry collaboration 'Ghost Dance' with poet Emily Berry, which was a featured premiere on BBC's Late Junction in 2024, and had work selected for an In The Dark listening event the same year. http://www.owenduff.co.uk http://www.instagram.com/owenduffmusic owenduff.bandcamp.com 3) Rhiannon Siân Clucas - Hertz to Hertz 2 You are travelling across ghost frequencies on an outdated technology. Most of the airways are empty but you think you can hear voices underneath the crackle, if you listen well enough. They are speaking in a language you cant understand, you are in a far away land. I am a sound artist interested in having and listening to conversation rhiannonsianclucas.cargo.site 4) Uma Volkmer - it feels complex but calm This work was created as part of a larger project, the space between sun, with Boorloo (Perth) based improvisers Saskia Willinge and Naoko Uemoto. We met at a creative development in 2023 and have been interested in finding ways to create music together despite our geographical distance. This work contains fragments of Saskia and Naoko's improvisations/field recordings, which were responses to visual and text scores I sent to them in late 2024. Sending ideas, thoughts, feelings, back and forth; it feels complex but calm, reflects a moment in time as we find ways to collaborate despite the space between us. The instrument samples (improvisations) and field recordings used to create this work were recorded by Saskia Willinge and Naoko Uemoto in Boorloo on Whadjuk Nyoongar land. Then edited, mixed, re-arranged and organised by Uma Volkmer on Gadigal land. Flute: Saskia Willinge Saxophone: Naoko Uemoto Uma Volkmer is an emerging sound artist based on Gadigal land in Sydney, Australia . Her practice is experiment driven with a focus on collaboration, connectivity and an explorative dialogue between visual and sonic forms. Uma loves to explore fluidity, abstraction and ambiguity in her work, using improvisation as a vehicle to create unexpected sound worlds, feelings and textures. As a trumpet player Uma has performed in Sydney within various projects, such as with band Bad Photography, SCALP Ensemble and Splinter Orchestra, as well as at SoundOut Festival (Canberra) and WWIM (Perth). https://www.instagram.com/_umav/ 5) Paul Antick - LOSS WORTH LOSING One way telephone conversation. Artist, writer and filmmaker Paul Antick's work has appeared in various places, including: Allegra Lab, Journal of Extreme Anthropology, Journal of Visual Culture, John Hansard Gallery, Horse Hospital, and Belfast Exposed Photography Gallery. Tracks from his music project 'Troll' (2025) - a 'country punk' album by Smith in Finland - have recently featured on Resonance FM and Radio Orange, Vienna.

Using the 16-channel stereo CLEAT system at Elastic Arts, the artists experiment with radio performative sound collage, sampling R&B music, engaging caller testimonies, and creating original sounds. Artist bio: Chicago-based artists Lola Ayisha Ogbara and Andres L. Hernandez perform as the group Two Halves. Two Halves draws from the artists’ individual work in writing, video, performance, sound, and installation to produce site-responsive soundscapes, scores for moving image and performance, video works, and electronic music. Two Halves regularly employs improvisation, sampling, collage, and chance for their audio-visual experimentation, and taps into rich legacies of creative, intellectual, and spiritual practices across the African diaspora. Beyond their work as Two Halves, Ogbara and Hernandez also record and perform solo as LAO and aRKMDZ, respectively. Website/social links http://www.lolaogbara.com http://www.andreslhernandez.com Pastoral Fields - Wind Paralysis Pastoral Fields - Wind Paralysis 20 September 2026 12:30 am - 1:30 am Wind Paralysis is an immersive soundscape composed of field recordings, submerged vocal phonations, and processed environmental audio. It unfolds as a sonic journey through spaces where orientation dissolves: from the Baltic coast at night, through industrial landscapes, and into the deserted areas of Zapotitlán Salina, Mexico; a region with a deep geological history shaped by water, salt, and time. Extended passages of field recordings move between distinct aural environments; from coastal atmospheres to the hum of industrial zones, wind carving through rock, to the immediacy of breath held underwater. Through controlled exhalation and extended vocal techniques, the voice sheds its linguistic function, becoming texture, vibration, and resonance. Spoken fragments, environmental sound, and composed elements accumulate gradually, drifting apart and softening through broadcast. The work invites a mode of listening attuned to instability and shared transmission, exploring thresholds between presence and disappearance. Artist's biography Pastoral Fields is an artist collective and audiovisual platform based in Berlin, exploring themes of transition and impermanence through immersive sound and visual art. Launching later in 2026 as a nocturnal online video channel, Pastoral Fields will expand into other mediums and formats, including sound performances and exhibitions in and beyond Berlin. Aylin Derya Stahl is a Berlin-based artist working across photography, installation, moving image, sound, and text. Stahl's research-based practice centres around the materialisation of time within objects. She is interested in threshold states where images and objects oscillate between presence and disappearance. With an archaeological sensitivity, Stahl investigates the mutability of things, examining how fragments of the past persist or dissolve in the present. She records under the moniker Recovered Debris. Oda Starheim is a Norwegian artist based in Berlin. Working with extended vocal techniques, raw performance and electronics, her practice explores voicing as a state of becoming. She is also half of the music duo Soft as Snow. Residual Drifter is the sound project of Berlin-based artist Nick Jeffrey. Working with field recordings, ambient composition, and textural improvisation, Jeffrey explores relationships between place, memory, and transformation, creating immersive soundscapes that blur reality and imagination. The project draws on folk-horror sensibilities and processes of growth and erosion, and is closely entangled with Jeffrey’s visual practice in painting and filmmaking.

These works span from 2018 to 2024, gathering together: - Dronica Triad - Dronica Metal - Dronica Animals - Dronica YeanLú An exploratory attempt grounded in Drone, where textures drift and dissolve, carrying echoes of labour, nature, and spectral resonance. Artist bio: My practice as a communicator and radio artist explores the interplay of language, discourse, and sound. I collect, preserve, and re use sonic fragments, transforming them into experimental radio pieces. Central to my work is the manipulation of sounds often silenced, where noise and silence become disruptive forces that spark reflection and dialogue. Radio Art engages the body in an ephemeral sensory universe, never repeating the same experience twice. Each sound material opens a new story. Driven by curiosity, I blend analogue and digital methods, always searching for silence within noise and noise within silence.

The collective comes together on the first Friday of every month at 3:02pm ET using custom-made software. Some sessions don't have a description and the one on October 3th doesn't have even a title. However, some have a more detail description as in The Spiral: The record groove or a strip of tape moves forward by circling, slipping into another layer each time. That coiling motion echoes how time forms paths that don’t quite repeat. The spiral frames the way patterns return at different scales, from tiny biological curves to movements that shift light, air, and weather. A shared structure keeps resurfacing and shows how things grow and reorganize, how memory drifts, and how repetition comes back slightly off axis, opening another turn. Artist bio: The Conduction Series is a collaborative live radio broadcast produced by sound and transmission artists across the Americas on Wave Farm’s WGXC 90.7-FM Radio for Open Ears in New York’s Upper Hudson Valley. Artists names are: Betsey Biggs, August Black, Peter Courtemanche, Florencia Curci, Jeff Economy, Anna Friz, Jimmy Garver, Maximilian Goldfarb, Virginia Mantinian, and Rodrigo Ríos Zunino. The Conduction Series is syndicated on Radio MonteAudio in Montevideo, Uruguay, Radio Tsonami in Valparaíso, Chile, Radio CASo in Buenos Aires, Argentina, CITR FM in Vancouver, Canada, New Adventures in Sound Art in Ontario, Canada, and on Radio 1190 in Boulder/Denver, USA. https://conduction.wavefarm.org/ Radiophrenia Shorts 34 Radiophrenia Shorts 34 20 September 2026 4:00 am - 5:00 am Absolute Value of Noise - Music for magnolias Absolute Value of Noise - Music for magnolias 20 September 2026 5:00 am - 8:00 am Music for magnolias is an outdoor sound installation. It consists of several sound-making "Spots" - each made-up of a small solar cell and a tiny electronic circuit. These Spots are attached to the lower branches of a large tree (preferably a Magnolia). As the sun moves across the sky, it shines through the leaf coverage of the tree and produces a dappled light effect on the solar cells. This causes the solar power for each circuit to fade in and out, allowing each Spot to play with different sounds and signal strengths at different times of the day and in different weather conditions. This radio piece is a recent recording of Magnolias playing in the winter sun, with a bit of the outdoor background noise and some added birds and sounds from the summer. Artist bio: Absolute Value of Noise (Peter Courtemanche) is a sound artist living in Vancouver. He works with radio and sound installation in indoor and outdoor locations. He likes to work with bio-electric circuits, magnetic transceivers, and "little electronic brains" that observe and respond to local phenomena. His outdoor installations typically integrate solar-powered electronics with plants. These works investigate themes of bio-diversity, extinction, and fragile eco-systems. They emphasize the invisible, drawing attention to things people normally overlook or avoid (insects, lichen, moss, weeds, pollution). The sounds from the outdoor works invariably make their way onto the radio and into various performance pieces.

The interaction between field acoustics and amplified voltage is reflected in the steadily growing and subsiding movement between foreground and background. The composition features a recording of a frog concert that slowly develops, reaches a climax and dies down again. It was recorded at a small pond in Vorarlberg, Austria, which was originally built in 1860 as a village swimming pool and is now home to a variety of creatures. Marie Vermont and Rudi Gier are Vienna-based artists and musicians, constantly scoring and compos(t)ing new sonic narratives on common and non-common places, the climate crisis and queer ecological theories. https://marievermont.world/ Instagram: marievermont666 https://www.evamariamueller.net/ Instagram: gmorrk 2) Gustavo Guzmán - Stromboli-1940 A four-part suite of acousmatic landscapes inspired by the culture of radio listeners of the magnetosphere, assembled from recordings of Chilean birds, very low frequency (VLF) radio excerpts, and various forms of visual sound synthesis (e.g., spectral drawing of contours and structures). More than a linear piece, it is a collection of different "moments" within this landscape that aims to be both inductive and evocative. The idea is to play with the notion of the "atmospheric" as a medium in which all kinds of concepts, textures, sonorities, and metaphors are suspended to experience a phantasmagoric transduction from technological to natural soundscapes, and viceversa. Thus, Stromboli-1940 becomes an aural non-place for ecological rumination. Gustavo Guzmán is a composer, artist, and researcher with an extensive transdisciplinary background. His sustained, research-driven trajectory underscores his long term commitment to using art and technology as tools for ecological resilience and social transformation through the lens of gesture. Professionally, Gustavo Guzmán has composed and produced for film, video, and theatre, and toured extensively across Mexico, presenting solo and collaborative sound poetry at large scale venues. Recent highlights include experimental music performances for Radio UNAM (2022-2023), research on situated experimental musical interfaces for the Global South (NIME LATAM 2025), and eco-acoustic collaborations with Tsonami sound-art collective (2025), among others. http://gustavoguzmancom.wordpress.com/ 3) Shape Of Mustard - strange kinships In strange kinships, Shape of Mustard (composers Eveline Vervliet and Philipp C. Mayer) explore the fictive story of a group of researchers from the 1860s, in search of the nature and culture of pigeons. The only things left are a book and some old audio tape recordings. With this documentation, the artists try to reconstruct the team’s research path and results. What are the limits of our understanding of another species? And what are the limits of our materials in acquiring and documenting such findings? Eveline Vervliet is a composer based in Germany. In her work, she explores the interplay between musicians and technology, and between humans and non-human animals. Her current practice revolves around memory, erasure and composing with transience - works that change and fade over time. Philipp C. Mayer is a composer. He works in the field of music theatre, concert music and installations. Since 2022 he is working in a theatre collective with Rieke Süßkow, Mirjam Stängl and Sabrina Bosshard. Mayer studied composition with Isabel Mundry, Stefano Gervasoni and Luxa Schüttler. https://evelinevervliet.com https://philippchristophmayer.com 4) Sergio Valente/ Gurrola Alvarez - “The Eccentric: Laughter Before the Abyss” Voice is the original resonance of the human experience. It agitates and moves. Beyond pantomime, voice is the most genuine medium: it goes from the inside out, it is graduated according to the intensity, height and strength of emotions. Voice is moldable, bearer of a secret and musical communication. Whereas, the face is suitable for concealing. Man is set outside of himself through his face, he is given into any reaction, before being able to protect himself. Laughter opens the threshold of fragmented behavior and ruptures. When we laugh we lose control of our body and unpredictable responses are produced that break our usual composure, allowing an endless resource of knowledge of the human being to emerge. “Excéntrica” is a piece put together based on the laughter of women of different ages. In the midst of the wild eruptions of female laughter, there is a revelation: the secret composition of human nature is manifested. In almost no other expression is it as difficult to distinguish the authentic from the not authentic. The immediate and the involuntary is what makes laughter an authentic expressive gesture. Its original bond to human moods sticks to our eyes and ears with irresistible power. When the abyss surrounds us, laughing isn’t a frivolous attitude, but a need to conserve our balance facing the void. Audiovisual Director, Composer, and Sound Artist Sergio Gurrola is an artist whose work transcends the conventional limits of art to plunge into the deepest territories of human experience. His work is not only heard or seen; it is felt, lived. With a narrative that oscillates between noise and music, testimony and poetry, Sergio builds sonic and visual universes that defy traditional categories, inviting the viewer to explore the outer edges of perception and emotion. https://sergiogurrola.com/ https://www.instagram.com/ https://www.youtube.com/@778MILLONESDEKM Radiophrenia Shorts 16B Radiophrenia Shorts 16B 20 September 2026 8:30 am - 9:00 am Van Luber Parensen - Through the Opened Window Van Luber Parensen - Through the Opened Window 20 September 2026 9:00 am - 10:00 am Based on the experience of my family and me traveling overland from Jakarta to West Sumatra to return home for the Idul Fitri holiday, this sound Documentary consists of fragments of sound that we passed through during a journey that was constantly in motion and in transition. In 'Through the Opened Window', I minimize efforts to manipulate the sounds and tend to let the sonic situations breathe and flow on their own. I want ordinary sounds—often considered unimportant or boring—to be given space here. There is a fragment of an interview with Ibu Yani, a coffee stall owner behind a gas station in the Pelayangan area, where she talks about the government’s latest tax policies. The composition also includes a recorded conversation with Uda Eman, my cousin, who shares his experiences related to gold mining activities in Sisawah Village and several other areas in Sumatra. Artist bio: Van Luber Parensen is a transdisciplinary artist based in Jakarta. He is part of Forum Lenteng, a cultural organisation in Jakarta. His films have been screened at several national and international festivals and forums. As an artist, he works in various mediums, such as musical composition, soundscapes, painting, sketching, and collage. Since 2023, with SIGISORA, a listening initiative based in Jakarta, he has been focusing on sound-based art, both in the realm of composition practice and study.

Duncan Macleod & Shona MacClennan - Bi Glic! 20 September 2026 10:30 am - 11:00 am Bi Glic is co-presented by myself (Duncan MacLeod) and Shona MacClennan, building from our RSPB commissioned soundwalk of the same name. The programme explores Gàidhlig birdlore: the words, stories, songs, place-names and ways of knowing birds that circulate through everyday life and oral tradition of the Outer Hebrides. In Gàidhlig, bi glic means “be wise” or “be prudent”, and it is also heard as an echo of the oystercatcher’s call: “bi glic, bi glic”. That double meaning sets the tone. We will move between first-person conversation, spoken word, sound archives, song, field recordings, traditional and original music. The programme will drift through seasonal listening on Uist (Western Isles of Scotland), from machair to shoreline, with close voice giving way to open-air soundscapes. Artist bio: Duncan MacLeod is an award-winning composer and sound artist, and Professor of Sonic Arts at Glasgow School of Art. His work spans concert music, installations, participatory projects and site-specific soundwalks. Informed by folklore and place, he explores place, identity, heritage and environment in the Anthropocene. Shona MacLellan is a photographer and cultural historian from Uist, and Community Engagement Officer for the RSPB Outer Hebrides. A Gàidhlig speaker, her work centres on place-based storytelling and collaboration, connecting communities with local landscapes, heritage and wildlife through creative engagement and public-facing projects across the Western Isles of Scotland.

This work takes the format of a sonic broadcast as a route into the affective, reverberant and opaque experiences of the afterlives of Transatlantic slavery, another way to engage the psychic & emotional ruptures that characterise one’s journey into one’s own history when Black in the diaspora. The performance will collect together field recordings set to tape, found and archival sounds from my own family and the Bernie Grant Archive, live reading of my own poetic work, and samples processed through pedal chains and an SP-404SX. It is a broadcasted obituary or epitaph, for all those unnamed and lost to the wake of anti-Black colonial violence. Artist bio: Myles Westman is an artist and musician based in Glasgow. Their poetic and sonic work explores the relationship between contemporary Black life and the archives of slavery and colonialism. It posits a question of ‘Black sound’ - do Black sonic practices achieve marronage or remain captive within the colonial imaginary? They blend song, poetry, field and archival recording with traditional instruments and pedal chains, creating affective and unsettled atmospheres in which to pose their unresolvable questions. They’ve developed broadcasts with CBR, Radio Alhara & Lumbung Radio, and have exhibited/performed their work in French Street, Market Gallery, civic house & Fruitmarket Website/social links https://www.instagram.com/makaya.ow/ https://soundcloud.com/mwm_wmw Buffer Zone Buffer Zone 20 September 2026 11:45 am - 12:00 pm Dosimat - The Wing Is Two Colours Dosimat - The Wing Is Two Colours 20 September 2026 12:00 pm - 12:45 pm Using Sounds which have been sourced from a personal archive of acoustic encounters accumulated slowly over many years, Dosimat incorporates field recordings, acoustic sketches, pastoral fragments, vhs tapes, ambient textures and slowly evolving drones with hypnotic rhythmic structures to create a long form sound collage.

Roshto & Ursel Quint) – Circles (8:20) 1) Voiceover - A Literary Canon "A Literary Canon" is a work of 'sample poetry' using snippets of readings by various authors who I like and who are part of my own personal literary canon. These speech fragments are looped and layered, as well as changing elements again and again, resulting in a pattern comparable to a spoken canon. Marc Matter (‘1974 Basel, CH) works artistically and as a researcher in the field between sound and spoken language. Works appear on records (Futura Resistenza, Chocolate Monk, Mount Analogue, Slim Volume, Spoken Matter), as commissioned works for radio (Deutschlandradio, SWR, WDR) and as live performances. He is also a member of Institut für Feinmotorik, resident DJ at Salon des Amateurs, was part of The Durian Brothers and co-runs the Spoken Matter label for spoken word experiments and sonic poetry. https://soundcloud.com/mr_mueck-1 https://www.instagram.com/marcmatter3/ https://spokenmatter.net/ 2) Sibylle Pomorin - Kleines absurdes Hörstück My radio play 'Kleines absurdes Hörstück' (A short, absurd radio play) is designed so that everyone listening to it can conjure up different images and associations. When composing this "musique concrète", I had a small scene in mind—a campfire, perhaps in the woods. The fire conveys peace and a sense of security—warmth. In the distance, you hear animal sounds, then matches, clinking glasses… The people sitting around the campfire begin to talk, to converse—in different languages. What they say seems as if they are talking past each other. Someone is walking around, another is fiddling with dishes, then tinkering with a cardboard box. Sounds of conventional instruments and singing reinforce the harmonious, positive atmosphere; you hear laughter. Toward the end of the piece, the "conversation" becomes more lively. The scene seems fantastical, outside of reality—absurd. Sibylle Pomorin (*56) was already working as a guitar teacher at a private music school at the age of 15. From 1975 until 1980 she studied flute and saxophone at the Staatliche Hochschule für Musik in Münster, Germany. At the same time she played in chamber ensembles and jazz groups for which she also composed. In 1984/85, she studied composition under Ernst Bechert in Hamburg, Germany and in 1994, she received composition lessons and an introduction to electroacoustic music from the American composer and electronic musician Alice Shields during a sixmonth stay in New York. Between 1982 and 1994 she toured with improvising musicians of the international scene and toured with her own groups and compositions through Europe and Israel. Since 1986, she lives in Berlin, the German capital, as a freelance-artist and composer. She received composition commissions for ensembles, festivals, broadcasting, and theatre as well as numerous prizes and awards (inter alia the SWF Jazz Prize and the first prize at international composition contest “Soundscapes voor 2000“ in the Netherlands) and was promoted by various working scholarships - inter alia in New York, Istanbul and Iceland. Scores publications and CD releases inter alia by Moers Music and in the Furore Verlag. Co-operation with musicians of the international improvisation and avant-garde scene. In 1992, Bavarian Television broadcast a film portrait of the artist ("Neue Töne aus Berlin", portrait of the musician and composer Sibylle Pomorin by Carla Kilian). Since 1994, studies and productions in the studios of the Columbia-Princeton Electronic Music Center in New York, the Center for Art and Media in Karlsruhe, Germany, the Electronic Studio of the Technical University of Berlin, Germany, and the Nederlandse Programma Stichting in Hilversum, Netherlands, and in her private studio. Her music has been performed at international festivals for contemporary music in Europe, Israel, Mexico, Australia, Canada, Georgia, Japan and the USA. http://www.sibylle-pomorin.de https://www.instagram.com/sibylle.pomorin/ https://www.facebook.com/sibylle.pomorin/ https://soundcloud.com/sibylle-pomorin https://www.youtube.com/@sibyllepomorin9007 3) SnowKrash (Barry L. Roshto & Ursel Quint) – Circles Circles is a composition for Spoken Word and piano, written by Barry L. Roshto. It is inspired by the ground breaking genre “Word Jazz” created by the American voice-over artist Ken Nordine produced in the last half of the 20th century. Word Jazz induced a kind of euphoric-nonsensical profoundness of sensible and sensual self-evident experiences. (Smoke 'em if you got 'em.) Circles uses geometrical specifications and psychological implications of circles metaphorically. Circles as representations of the cycles of time and subsequently (consequently), LIFE. A circle as a symbol of life could be construed as negative, inferring tedious repetitions or inescapable treadmills. But, cyclical systems can, and do provide balance through their symmetrical and ritualistic patterns. SnowKrash is collaborative dispute over the relationship of sound to sight. Since 2009 Ursel Quint (Ger) and Barry L. Roshto (USA/Ger) have been exploring different aspects of this link through the process of producing and presenting original audio-visual works. Whether they are recording the underwater sound of rivers, taking EKG’s of bridges, pipelines or trees, sonifying the electromagnetic fields of their environment or composing film music, they are constantly trying to circumvent the usual. http://www.snowkrash.org http://www.facebook.com/SnowKrashinfo/ https://vimeo.com/channels/snowkrash Radiophrenia Shorts 32B Radiophrenia Shorts 32B 20 September 2026 1:30 pm - 2:00 pm 1 Ruta Reu - Vėjonė (“Wind-dream”) (10:05) 2 Earrational Measures - 39 Alpha, 39 Bravo: The sound of detention’s economies (10:00) 3 Estefania Piñeiros - "Entre estados" & "¿Oyeron?" (7:12) 4 Water Feature - Various Birds - brown yipper (1:42) 1) Ruta Reu - Vėjonė (“Wind-dream”) Vėjonė (“Wind-dream”) is an electroacoustic soundscape composition built from field recordings on the Curonian Spit, a UNESCO World Heritage landscape shaped by the entanglement of human presence and natural forces. Threaded through the work are extended sounds of the kanklės, a traditional Lithuanian plucked zither. The piece emerged during a summer working as a dune ranger in the Curonian Spit Nature Reserve. It traces long walks across protected dunes between the Curonian Lagoon and the Baltic Sea, in heat and sandstorms that once buried whole villages, listening for what wind and shifting sand will shape next. Wind becomes both subject and composer, drawing “graphic scores” in sand and grasses that unfold into evolving texture and form. The site also carries WWII memory: bunkers remain embedded in the terrain, offering resonant, enclosed acoustics. Materials gathered during conservation work became preparations for the kanklės, letting traces of the shoreline enter its timbre. Ruta Reu is a sound artist, composer and vocalist based in Vilnius, Lithuania. Her work explores the meeting point of sound, environment and emotion, drawing on field recordings, electroacoustic composition and experimental electronics. She graduated with an HND in Music from North East Scotland College (NESCol) and recently completed a BA in Electronic Music at the Lithuanian Academy of Music and Theatre. Her recent work includes sound for short films and audiovisual installations, as well as immersive multichannel pieces. Rooted in attentive listening, she shapes place, texture and feeling into immersive pieces. https://on.soundcloud.com/MDmzUhELw2EfLtZ2Vy 2) Earrational Measures - 39 Alpha, 39 Bravo: The sound of detention’s economies 39 Alpha, 39 Bravo tells the story of profit and exploitation within a specific immigration removal centre throughout 1 day, through data sonification. It is an uncanny journey through the 24 hours of Campsfield House Immigration Removal Centre (near Oxford, UK) in 2016, from the perspective of Pilo Moreno, the co-producer of this track and expert by experience. Pilo guides the listeners through a whole day in Campsfield House, retracing a generic day, a recurring and repeating sequence throughout the 5 months he spent there. In the background, and as part of the track’s rhythmical backbone, you will hear how much three different characters earned in one day back in 2016: the director of the private corporation managing the removal Centre, the custody officer working in the facility, and a detainee who is employed by the centre for menial duties. Through the juxtaposition of data-sonification, haunting sounds and first account Earrational Measures is a collaborative platform reimagining how data and stories are told and experienced through sound and music. By bringing together artists, journalists, and experts by experience, we transform data into sonic landscapes and shared musical creation. Our work exists at the intersection of investigative storytelling, lived expertise, and experimental sound design—turning statistics into sensory experience, personal narratives into collective composition. We believe that sound can reveal what numbers alone cannot, and that the most powerful narratives emerge when we break down the traditional hierarchies between expert, subject, and artist. https://earrationalmeasures.bandcamp.com/album/39-alpha-39-bravo https://www.instagram.com/earrationalmeasures/ 3) Estefania Piñeiros - "Entre estados" & "¿Oyeron?" These soundscapes form part of my research into the acoustic relationship between people and the Chimborazo volcano in Ecuador. Drawing on recordings made at different elevations, Entre estados (Between States) and ¿Oyeron? (Did You Hear?) work with the sounds of water and ice as they shift in rhythm, texture, and states of matter, treating these transitions as indicators of climate change. Voices of mountain guides and park rangers anchor these listenings in lived experience: climbing routes that are closed, meltwater arriving earlier, and an increasing climatic uncertainty that makes seasons harder to predict. This aligns with research on the vulnerability of Andean tropical glaciers, which receive higher solar radiation and are very sensitive to small changes in temperature or precipitation. Although Chimborazo’s glacier may disappear in the future, people find it difficult to imagine that this would also entail a loss of the mountain’s symbolic and mystical power. Estefanía Piñeiros is a transdisciplinary researcher working across the arts, humanities and social sciences. Her work explores the embodied, sensory experience of place and landscape. During her PhD in Cultural Studies at the University of Edinburgh, she combined walking, photography and mapping to examine how residents of Quito’s historic centre experience, narrate and imagine everyday urban space. Her current research extends these methods to high-Andean environments. Through ethnography, field recording and creative practice, she investigates how people perceive and engage with acoustic ecologies, asking what produces sound, how listening practices unfold, and how vibration shapes cultural understandings of changing landscapes. https://epineiros.ju.mp/ https://www.instagram.com/etsefiana/ 4) Water Feature - Various Birds - brown yipper A collection of somewhat convincing birdsong and foley created entirely on a small battery-powered drum machine. Many imaginary and fanciful 'species' including the Pond Bather, Golden Nuthatch and Brown Yipper are featured. A long-form sound collage of many species is the central work, and 'close-ups' are also included. In one sense the project is a sincere tribute to bird identification records and tapes one would find in garden centres in the 90s, of which the artists have a large collection. In another sense it is an uncanny objection to a contemporary relationship with nature that romanticises and objectifies it from a safe distance. The sounds have been sampled in records by other artists, used in an extended arrangement for an installation in the Jardin Des Plantes in Paris, presented with narration by a supposed ornithologist, and are played constantly via an internet radio station. Water Feature is a 'collage band' formed of several contributors, creating utopian, absurd and low-fidelity environmental(ist) music. There is a strong reactionary and naive spirit to the project which aims to replace lifeless, boring, synthetic ambient music with an alternative chaotic, colourful and organic musique concrète. Recording and composition revolves around improvisation with cheap gear, tape-splicing and other uncivilised practices and accidents. 3 records (including Various Birds) have been released through the DIY Morsels label/collective. https://variousbirds.net https://morsels.website https://www.instagram.com/morsels.website/ Seth Scott - Points of Articulation: Episode 5 Seth Scott - Points of Articulation: Episode 5 20 September 2026 2:00 pm - 2:20 pm Friar Bacon is trying to make a statue speak. Alone with his books, machines and a patchy understanding of the human anatomy, he sets out on an arduous quest to synthesise the human voice. As he traverses the deep history of speech science, his experiments grow unstable, feverish and strange. Points of Articulation is an experimental radio drama exploring the politics and poetics of synthesised speech. Based on an Elizabethan stage play about a scholar who makes a pact with the devil to make a brass statue speak, the piece explores a history of speaking machines and our changing attitudes towards them. Artist bio: Seth Scott is a sound designer and composer who uses programming, writing, audio recording, and musical performance to explore the manifold relationships between sound and technology. His work takes a range of forms, including fixed media and concert music, sound installations, interactive mobile apps and performances. Seth’s work has been exhibited across the UK in venues including the Barbican Centre, Serpentine Gallery, Bloomberg Space, and BBC Maida Vale. He works regularly with visual and mixed-media artists, producing sound and music for films and installations which have been shown in galleries and film festivals worldwide.

Hearing from the pavement, moving through streets and slopes, tuning into shifting acoustics and sensing the geological and ecological histories that shape the city along and back from the edge of the River Tay. Through layered field recordings, spatial positioning, and voice, it will trace Dundee’s clamber and climb - thinking to it's conflicting topography, taking us from tidal edge to volcanic hillside. Thinking of the ways that the Tay is both central, yet circumvents - the composition will sonically explore the tensions of proximity and separation, flow and obstruction, ascent and descent. Artist bio: dundee radio club [ddrc] is a space for sonic exploration; a space for gathering, for listening, for sharing sounds + opening ears. Through an annual marathon listening festival + ad-hoc online broadcasting, ddrc seek auricular connection through amplifying local voices + tuning to global vibrations. A quiet space for sounding out + an invitation for longer listening together. dundee radio club was founded in 2023 and is collaborative project hosted + produced by Becca Clark + Su Shaw.

Bio: Ruaridh Law is an artist and musician based in North Ayrshire, Scotland. Over 20 years he has performed in groups, in collaborations and solo across a wide range of festivals, arts spaces, venues and clubs as performer, improviser, DJ and artist. His mediums include sound and installation art, film and writing. His works have ranged from intimate audio performance and gallery installations to large-scale outdoor works combining sound walks, improvised performance and experimental storytelling. His artistic focusses are on data-visualisation, human voices and their stories, unusual paradigms for performance and composing, and marrying abstraction to a beating human heart. These have manifested themselves in a tarot deck that generates music, sequential stories told over film and radio, right-wing propaganda twisted and sanitised into more worthwhile content and a walk through a forest and its imagined mythologies in the dead of night – as well as countless CD, DVD, vinyl and other music releases. He runs several record labels and, more recently, No Roof Only Sky, a small press publisher. ruaridh law / tvo / broken20 / no roof only sky. / logicofthesignifier ruaridhTVO.com \| broken20.com \| noroofonlysky.com \| logicofthesignifier.bandcamp.com Radiophrenia Shorts 65A Radiophrenia Shorts 65A 20 September 2026 3:30 pm - 3:50 pm 1 Leonardo Vita – Granciporro (4:58) 2 Killer Estralandia – Guatemala (4:00) 3 Chloe Cavender - Subway VLF, Cowcaddens to Buchanan Street (1:40) 4 Andrea Laudante - Nel ventre (5:17) 1) Leonardo Vita – Granciporro Granciporro is an acousmatic exploration moving between the residual and the concrete, between the sound that carries the imprint of its source and the sound that rejects it. The source sound material is indeed divided into two categories. On one hand, concrete elements, taken from reality, recordings of everyday objects manipulated through spatialisation techniques and granular treatment. On the other, glitches, background noise, dirt, what is usually called ‘mistakes’. The title itself refers to this second definition: the granciporro (Cancer pagurus), is a type of Mediterranean crab on which the idiomatic phrase ‘catching a crab’, making a gross mistake is based. Mistakes, residues are thus now elevated to protagonists and the track becomes a celebration of error. The ‘noises’ become expressive material and emerge in a mutated form; the sounds of the machinic and the organic are interwoven in a residual, erroneous, fragmented, post-digital aesthetic of noise. Bio: Leonardo Vita’s artistic research concerns the relationships between the physical sound environment and the gesture-sound, explored through field-recording, prepared instruments, and graphic scores. The same themes return in his work as a composer and as an improviser, performing in Italy and abroad with various ensembles and as a soloist. He participates in workshops, residences, masterclasses, and in projects of local and international scope, while active as musicologist and curator. 2) Killer Estralandia – Guatemala This soundscape emerges from field recordings captured during a journey through three Guatemalan cities (Guatemala City, Antigua, and Monterrico), exploring the intersection between natural and human-constructed sonic environments. The work documents how industrial development—motors, electrical devices, factories, highways—inevitably permeates rural soundmarks, reflecting contemporary tensions between ecology and human domestication of space. Recordings from multiple perspectives—beaches, rivers, ferries, small towns, factory installations, churches, markets—create acoustic coordinates prioritizing temporal marking over geographical location. The composition weaves cultural testimonies: church bells as colonial heritage, voices documenting daily life, ferries symbolizing development intersecting nature, and factory drones generating strangely musical presences redefining "the natural." The narrative transitions from natural to artificial and back, reflecting cyclical human-environment interaction that constantly deconstructs our concept of nature. Minimal post-production preserves recording authenticity while establishing sonic hierarchy and spatial depth. Bio: Emilio Barriga Montoya is a sound artist, audiovisual producer, and educator based in Colombia. He holds an MFA in Sound Arts from the University of Barcelona. His practice operates at the intersection of sound experimentation, obsolete technologies, and expanded audiovisual narratives, with emphasis on generative systems, sound ecology, and immersive experiences. Under the moniker Killer Estralandia, he develops radical sonic territories through analog and modular synthesis, electronic component experimentation, and electroacoustic research. His work explores aesthetics of error, Latin American popular imaginary, and found materials from tapes and forgotten archives, articulating a poetics of noise that interrogates perception and memory. https://killerestralandia.bandcamp.com/ / https://soundcloud.com/magneticfillia 3) Chloe Cavender - Subway VLF, Cowcaddens to Buchanan Street ‘Subway VLF, Cowcaddens to Buchanan Street’ is a recording of the journey between two stations on the Glasgow Subway made with a VLF (Very Low Frequency) radio receiver. The receiver picks up radio waves far below the typical broadcast range. When used outside, it picks up radiation from the Earth’s magnetosphere, but when taken underground it picks up radiation emitted by the subway train’s motor, which changes sound as the train accelerates and deccelarates. Bio: As a fine art photographer, my work often deals with ‘the Photographic Condition’, using an understanding of historical photographic techniques to explore the history and the nature of the medium of photography. My current work explores the medium of radio as it relates to photography, because both involve the transmission and reception of electromagnetic waves, although the visible light waves used for photography occupy a very different part of the electromagnetic spectrum to radio waves. However, while photography relates to vision, radio is undetectable to our senses despite constantly filling our environment. https://chloecavender.com/ / https://www.instagram.com/chloecavender_photo/ 4) Andrea Laudante - Nel ventre Nel ventre is one of the result of a residency I did in early 2025 at Sletness fyr, the northernmost continental lighthouse in the world. This project combines poetic text and field recordings to document the extreme experience of the Arctic winter. I explore the lighthouse as a solitary sentinel, capturing the sounds hidden beneath its steps and reflecting on the transition from human habitation to mechanical governance. Realized with the support of the Goethe-Institut and Creative Europe. Bio: Andrea Laudante (Napoli,1993) is an Italian composer of electroacoustic music and multi- instrumentalist. His works have been performed across all Europe, Canada, Australia, South America, Taiwan, China and Hong Kong in festivals as Akousma - INA GRM (Paris), Forum Workshop - IRCAM (Paris), Totem Èlectrique (Montréal), Festival Futura (Crest), Andrea has also been awarded the first prize of INA GRM Découvertes 2021, first prize of Totem Electroacoustic 2023, and a distinction mention for the fixed audio category at Prix CIME 2023 and “Teresa Rampazzi” prime at XXIV CIM 2024 as part of the Totaleee collective. https://www.andrealaudante.com/ / https://www.instagram.com/andrea.laudante/ Radiophrenia Shorts 65B Radiophrenia Shorts 65B 20 September 2026 3:50 pm - 4:10 pm 5 Gregory Kramer - Late Shadows (5: 50) 6 Isis O'Regan – Confluence (5:50) 7 Mélanie Métier - J'ai ramassé quelques brindilles (5:09) 8 Johannes Christopher Gerard - K33 (2:55) 5) Gregory Kramer - Late Shadows Late Shadows was created during my time at Dyski residency, Composing with Tape, in Cornwall. The reel to reel tape loops I made flipped themselves inside out during playback resulting in a very different ambience from the original recordings. Rerecording them became the basis for this composition with some added piano and tennis racket. Gregory Kramer is an interdisciplinary artist and musician working with sound and space. He composes and performs using electronics, field recordings, found objects and traditional instruments, while also building sound making devices which transform found materials into instruments with new purpose. His work has been exhibited at Spain’s Museo Centro de Arte Reina Sofia, Belgium’s Site Specific, Mexico’s SONOM Sound Art Festival, Indonesia's Setia Darma Museum of Masks and Puppetry, Ecuador’s MUSLAB Contemporary Global Art exhibition and various online venues. He has album releases on Taâlem, MuteAnt Recordings, Pharmafabrik, Monotype Series and Impulsive Habitat. http://www.gregorykramerstudio.com @gregorykramerstudio 6) Isis O'Regan – Confluence Ingredients of Confluence all come from the Cairngorms: recordings of birds, bells, and vibrations of the wind recorded via contact mics on wire fences all tangled with sheep's wool. Hugging them together are cello strings and fog horns. This is a response piece to Nan Shepherd's pean: The Living Mountain. It's a short score that evokes her love, and sometimes even lust, for the land. It traces a journey of stepping into the harsh elements, taking you to a moment of respite and inner calm. "I have walked out of the body, and into the mountain" - Nan Shepherd. Originally from Galway, Ireland, and currently based in Glasgow, Isis O’Regan's creative practice stretches from sound art to poetry. Her itinerant radio series, Éisteacht Aisteach (translating from Irish as “weird listen”), recently premiered via NTS, and since has been hosted via 12th Isle's Forecast series. In 2020, she was the recipient of the BBC Arts and Arts Council England Current Transmissions grant, leading to the creation of sound art piece "Wet Cement" which was exhibited at the ICA and in 2024, she exhibited sonic work at the Engine Room, London. https://isis.cargo.site/ https://www.instagram.com/thenicestisis/ 7) Mélanie Métier - J'ai ramassé quelques brindilles In 2025 i have been surrounded by fire : in a few months two fires burnt my house, my garden and part of my district in Marseille. I started then a work around wind, fire and water, as elements that brings energies that overcome us but also opens new windows, getting out of anthropocentric points of view. Coming from documentary radio fields, the fire took me in a more radical sound approach, getting closer to music and fieldrecording, away from human voices. This electroacoustic piece, created to be played on the "acousmonium" of Cité de la Musique in Marseille, is a collection of sounds around me, fieldrecordings of simple things of the day-by-day life : the wind in the trees, the cook, the seaside. Melted together, they bring us to a journey along the fire. I light a match and a new word appears from the darkness. Mélanie Métier is an architect and sound artist. She taught herself radio techniques with Radio Panik in Brussels then joined the Radio Monobloc collective in 2020. She’s doing works combining architecture and sound creation. In her projects, she often integrates isolated, seldom heard people, which belongs to her creative process, particularly with health or social organisations. In her projects, MM pays attention to the coherence between the place, the approach and the creations they display, in particular by shifting our gaze, our attention, towards hidden places or to the edge of others. https://melaniemetier.com/ https://www.instagram.com/melanie__metier/ 8) Johannes Christopher Gerard - K33 The work is based on personal experiences traversing the paths and rooms filled with trash and debris in a former conservatory building in its final days before demolition. The work seeks a dialogue not only with the physical waste, but also with the spiritual debris of abandoned ideas, thoughts, and feelings Born in Cologne, Germany. He studied at Vocational College of Printmaking and Design, Cologne, Germany and at the Dun Laogharie School of Art and Design (IADT) in Dublin, Ireland. Throughout his artistic career, he has lived and worked in various countries on five continents. He currently lives in The Hague, Netherlands. He only began exploring sound and electronic music in 2022, after participating in the sound project NEW EMERGENCES by German sound artist Anne Wellmer in The Hague. Since then, he has regularly participated in video, film, and sound projects, festivals, and radio programs worldwide. https://www.johannesgerard.com/english/audiovisual/sound-tone/ https://www.facebook.com/johannes.gerard.3/ https://www.instagram.com/chrisger9/ https://www.johannesgerard-visualart.com/ Radiophrenia Shorts 65C Radiophrenia Shorts 65C 20 September 2026 4:10 pm - 4:30 pm 9 Ham Tanid - packages (4:52) 10 Frederico Pessoa - A Serra vai, deixando no meu corpo a paisagem (8:46) 11 Gabriel Barreto Acosta – Antrostatik (3:50) 12 Hector Bravo Benard - Una Cierta Dosis de Ternura (5:28) 9) Ham Tanid - packages "packages" documents an improvisational live performance using Curabab, a modern adaptation of an Asian folk instrument, and classical guitar, processed through Max/MSP. The work explores “packages” as vessels of communication, reflecting on how humans continually reshape their mediums in response to environmental change. From ritual offerings carried by natural elements to electrical signals transmitted through technological infrastructures, communication evolves alongside shifting ecological and planetary conditions. These transformations are framed not as progress, but as adaptive responses to instability. Acoustic sources dissolve into synthetic, unstable, and glitch-like textures, mirroring ecosystems in flux and the unpredictability of mediated systems. The performance embraces responsiveness to space, atmosphere, and audience presence. Sound functions as an environmental archive, carrying traces of human, technological, and cosmic layers that we encounter while only partially understanding. Ham–Tanid Sintaratana is an electro-acoustic artist, guitarist, and composer whose practice connects improvisation with traditional music and Buddhist philosophy. Through live looping, computer music, and site-specific field recording, he explores sound as a spatial and experiential medium, creating immersive sound installations and performances. Notable works include the album “RhizomE x Ju Ju,” created in collaboration with the artist Lolay, which earned the “Best Asian Creative Artist” award at Taiwan’s Golden Indie Music Awards (GIMA) in 2023. Additionally, the track “Fragments” from this album was selected for presentation at Ars Electronica Forum Wallis 2025 in Münster, Switzerland, in 2025. https://hamtanid.wordpress.com/ https://www.facebook.com/hamtanidd https://hamtanid.bandcamp.com/ https://www.instagram.com/hamtanidd/ 10) Frederico Pessoa - A Serra vai, deixando no meu corpo a paisagem “A Serra vai, deixando no meu corpo a paisagem” is a sound piece that makes use sounds that remind us of (and partly belong to) the machines that undertake long and slow journeys across the global oceans: immense bulk carriers, metallic whales whose sounds fascinate the listener but which are also, paradoxically, signs of greed, destruction, and death connected to capitalism and to the flow of raw materials (entire mountains of ore) from the Global South to “developed” countries. Brazil exports approximately 350 million tons of iron ore annually, with the main extraction center located in the State where I live, Minas Gerais. The piece addresses these two themes: fascination with the grandeur of these vessels and amazement at the destruction and death they symbolize. Frederico Pessoa is a musician who collects soundscapes and everyday occurrences for reinterpretation in electroacoustic and radio pieces, audiovisual works, and multimedia performances. He has written texts at the intersection of literature and the sociology of listening, aiming to explore, through words, the possibilities for mobilization created by sound. He holds a Ph.D. in Arts from UFMG/Brazil, and is a member of ESCUTAS: a research and study group in sonorities at the same institution. Additionally, he is one of the coordinators of the Laboratory of Sound Experimentation at UFMG, where he works as a sound designer. http://www.fredericopessoa.net https://www.facebook.com/frederico.pessoa.50/ @f__pessoa 11) Gabriel Barreto Acosta – Antrostatik …static, an interview in China, propaganda in Uganda, static, a political ad in Ecuador, static, a sports commentator in New Zealand, a debate about Bad Bunny in India, an evangelical sermon in Italy, advice on pet care in Iceland, static, static. That’s what a knob moving across the Anthropocene era might sound like. Antrostatik is a monthly radio experiment. Each episode is a ten-minute sonic capsule built from random fragments of broadcasts from different parts of the world. The pieces are generated through a system programmed in Pure Data that captures, mixes, and processes signals in real time, producing a radio exquisite corpse. In most cases, the mix will be slightly edited before transmission, although a fully live episode format is also considered. Antrostatik proposes a meta-radio: radio made of radio, aiming to generate an archive of these human days. A sample audio of the proposal is attached. I am Gabriel Barreto Acosta, a musician, artist educator, and industrial designer, based in Madrid. With over 20 years of experience and performances both nationally and internationally, I have explored diverse forms of sound-based creation, combining percussion, sound synthesis, and programming in environments such as SuperCollider and Pure Data. My interdisciplinary work spans performing arts, installations, and education, with projects carried out in various regions of Ecuador, including the Galápagos Islands. Currently, I am researching experimental lutherie as a space to integrate my musical, technical, and pedagogical knowledge. https://gabrielbarretoacos.wixsite.com/osonoro https://www.youtube.com/@orsogab https://www.instagram.com/orsogab/ 12) Hector Bravo Benard - Una Cierta Dosis de Ternura This piece is made up of sounds produced using different feedback techniques, including feedback frequency modulation and cross patching of envelope generators to produce chaotic micro-rhythmic patterns. It presents dense noisy material in a very condensed form, representing anger and resistance, but also a certain beauty that can emerge from chaos. The title is inspired by a Zapatista song, a section of which, loosely translated, reads: “It takes a certain amount of tenderness to see, in this darkness, a little bit of light.” It is dedicated to the Zapatistas in Mexico, to the people of Palestine, and to everyone who suffers under oppression and refuses to be erased from this world by the forces of capitalism and colonialism, and who still manage to find beauty, hope and love in the face of disaster and in the most difficult of circumstances. Originally from Mexico, studied philosophy and music at UVic, Xenakis Centre, Sonology, KonCon, Codarts, UNAM, DXARTS, and U. of Birmingham, where he received his Ph.D. He composes sound-based music focusing on timbral and spatial elements, and natural phenomena such as non-linear dynamical systems. His work has been presented internationally at major festivals and conferences such as ICMC, SEAMUS, NYCEMF, MA/IN, BEAST FEaST, and Sonorities, among many others. Lives in the Netherlands and Germany, working as an independent artist, researcher, and music-software developer. https://www.hbbenard.com/ Radio Commons: A Sonic Archipelago Radio Commons: A Sonic Archipelago 20 September 2026 4:30 pm - 5:30 pm A series of pieces thematically stitiching together works presented on our 'Radio Commons: A Sonic Archipelago' web platform, showcasing the work of Radio Commons, and the artists we work with. Our methodology for creating these pieces reflects our archipelagic mentality, influenced by Edoaurd Glissant, using contexts of flowing and growing together to build solidarity and collective agency for global artists and thinkers acting sonically to find new ways of working with the global commons. For example, one show might be entitled 'Counterflows' and would stitch together edited material by artists such as Blanc Sceol and Breakwater (Youngsook Choi and Taey Iohe) from the island of the same name- and from across our platfrom that engage with the context of water and fluidity. Other pieces in the series may take themes such as 'Island Dialogues', 'Sonic Worlds' or 'Fugitive Belonging' as starting points for new explorations of our archive. Artist bio: Radio Commons is an international, multi-lingual platform for sonic interventions, seeking to practice solidarity by building collective agency. Co-authored by a remote collective of artists and cultural workers in Palermo, Berlin, and Sheffield, the project is an experiment in commoning at distance, initiated during the lockdowns of 2020. It’s current manifestation - Sonic Archipelago - was brought into being in 2022 with support from Relais Culture Europe (Paris). Since 2022, the archipelago has grown through emergent relationships with Dancing On The Edge (Amsterdam), XMTR (Hastings, UK), Tarkib House (Baghdad), Small Theatre Festival (Rome), Radio Dopo (Palermo), with more in development.

The restaurant table forms the stage for a live radio broadcast, mixing together live audio and archival traces that are sifted through in real time while sitting at the table. The shuffle of transcribing sheet music, excerpts of voice memo song ideas from the early 2000’s played from an audio recorder found in a drawer, and recordings from practice sessions are opened and played back at the table. Folders of impulse responses gathered to make convolution reverbs from various acoustically interesting spaces are played through and merged into the live mix. The unfolding situation at Stella’s, passing conversation, drone of refrigeration, and repeated unanswered greetings bleed into the broadcast, becoming part of the piece. The result is a remote live stream from a 24-hour diner in New Jersey. Artist bio: Elise Macmillan is an American artist and musician living in Norway. Her practice spans media, including sculptural installations, instruments, and sound works accessible as a telephone hotline. Her work has been presented at The Lofoten International Art Festival, The Kitchen, NY, Rewire Festival, Festspillene i Nord-Norge, Shedhalle Zurich, Ella Lissey’s, Haus Der Kunst Oslo, Sandaker Trialektek, and Kunstnernes Hus. She is currently part of the group Three to Thee to the Heart, the duo Our Beethoven with John Andrew Wilhite, and the Norwegian artist collective Verdensteatret.

L — the three-piece rock band that can’t help but fall apart — attempts to hold together a choir of ten. Each performer wearing headphones, responds to private instructions. Somewhere in the noise: A Love Supreme. Recorded live at Glasgow’s Glad Café on the 2nd July, 2026. A Radiophrenia commission produced with support of Creative Scotland. band/artist bio: L are a Glasgow trio made up of vocalist/ card magician Jack Paton, guitarist Jack Mellin, and drummer Laurie Pitt. Together, they perform intense, dissociative music that combines Paton’s confrontational spoken word with Mellin & Pitt’s blistering take on metal, jazz, noise and art rock. L are praised for their emotional live shows. Paton’s earnest vocals veer from cartoon-croon to body horror—set to the microsecond by Mellin & Pitt’s pinpoint shredding. Through explicit narratives and technical demolitions, L create a tragicomic theatre of existential pain and absurd freedom. Milo Thesiger-Meacham - The Storm God Sleeps, From the Deep, Handling Noise, The Job & The Courtyard Milo Thesiger-Meacham - The Storm God Sleeps, From the Deep, Handling Noise, The Job & The Courtyard 20 September 2026 6:30 pm - 7:00 pm Five works about the pressures of air and water featuring original writing, music, field recordings and camera audio. The Storm God Sleeps An original short story narrated by myself with recordings of Storm Eunice and music by The Dave Howard Singularity. From the Deep An instrumental partly recorded live at Iklectik’s first space featuring train whistle, synthesiser, electric guitar, resonated strings and Rebeca Burden on cello. Handling Noise A work built entirely from found sounds of GoPro cameras moving, falling, flying through air and water and between hands. The Job An anonymous plumber speaks from memory about a finished job, featuring sounds from a camera thrown into the sea. The Courtyard A short piece of writing, original music played on a pump organ and recordings of an underground waterway. Sounds and text years apart, brought together.

Upon their shoulder is a boombox, a tool for transmuting non-linear temporal networks of sound, sonically mapping towards liberated futurities through broadcast. The boombox in a historical context, is a tool of refusal. It is an amplifier of politicized sounds, transforming bodies and space; a disruption, a rerouting of attention, a remixing, a portal into possibility. The empire eater carries these legacies, deeply rooted in philosophies of hip-hop and subcultures of guerilla radio, on its shoulder. Piecing together audio from web-based and personal archives, as well as sounds created with digital instruments, this piece explores, what is The Empire Eater amplifying across radio waves? As borders are abolished, what is the broadcast for the fall of the empire? What is transmuted, drawn together, and collaged, across time and space, to archive this process of simultaneous collapse and emergence? Kaya Joan is a multi-disciplinary Afro-Indigenous (Vincentian, Kanien’kehá:ka, Jamaican, Irish) artist born, raised in Toronto, currently based in Tiohtià:ke (Montreal) un-ceded Kanien’kehá:ka territory. Kaya’s practice explores archival practices, relationship to place, storytelling, Black and Indigenous futurity and creation stories-deeply informed by temporal geographies and radical ancestral practices. Kaya has been working in community arts for 7 years as a facilitator and artist, engaging in collective practices of creation and world-building to unpack and explore themes of identity, land and community. Kaya is currently pursuing an MFA in Intermedia Arts from Concordia University. https://kayajoan.com/ 4) Keith de Mendonca - Slow Water This piece uses audio recordings of water - pouring water, a hydrophone recording of ferries in Helsinki harbour, jetties flexing in Bangkok and the Thames to respond to the tide. Dripping taps in Malaysia, wind blowing across a boat's mast by the sea. Many of the recordings are slowed down in software to allow new rhythms and elements to emerge. You are 60% water. Is this you? Keith de Mendonca took his first tentative steps into field recording in 2000 and since then he has been a contributor to the long-running radio show “Framework” on Resonance FM. His audio recordings have been aired on the ABC, BBC, ORF and other radio stations worldwide. Keith’s work has been used in the soundtracks of experimental films, appeared on CDs and been the subject of a DivFuse installation in London. For the last 2 years Keith has also been photographing live music events in London. https://frameworkradio.net/tag/keith-de-mendonca/ https://soundcloud.com/keith-de-mendonca https://www.instagram.com/keithdmphoto 5) Alejandra Alarcón-Bautista - Dreaming of Water Due to the war and energy shortages, Germany has chosen to increase its coal imports from Colombia to enhance its energy supply. El Cerrejón, located in Colombia, is the largest open-pit coal mine in South America from which part of Germany's coal is extracted. Unfortunately, the extraction of this raw material has not only severely decimated the local population, displacing them from their land and violating their human rights, but has also led to the displacement of entire rivers and contamination of water sources in one of the country's most arid regions. What is the true cost of Europe's industrial progress? "Dreaming of Water" is a collage of mining sounds in the Guajira region where this extraction is happening, contrasted with the natural soundscape that it's been destroyed. Alejandra Alarcón is a Colombian artist who studied Fine Arts at the Universidad Nacional de Colombia and Media Art at the Academy of Media Arts in Cologne. In 2017, she moved to Berlin to pursue studies in Stage Design and Scenic Space at the Technische Universität Berlin, where she completed her Master of Arts degree in 2019. Since then, she has been living and working in Berlin, collaborating with other artists in the theater and performance scene while also developing her own audiovisual projects, which focus on decolonial practices. https://www.instagram.com/maalarconb/ https://www.behance.net/maalarconb Radiophrenia Shorts 48 B Radiophrenia Shorts 48 B 20 September 2026 7:30 pm - 8:00 pm 1 Thomas Finbarr - Real Stupidity (7:50) 2 Sam Hawkins - Bee Count: A Mancunian Soundscape (07:04) 3 LANE/LOUISE – interlaced (13:44) 1) Thomas Finbarr - Real Stupidity After having suffered a major hard drive failure, attempts to recover the original sound files of a piece I had been working on resulted in a folder full of mangled wav and aiff files. I have used some of these mangled files to create this piece. The title of the piece is "Real Stupidity" the opposite of Artificial Intelligence and a referenec to not backing up files properly. Having studied Sound Design at Edinburgh University I have created several sound pieces of which Real Stupidity is one as well as sound artworks in Madrid, Perth and Barcelona where I am currently based 2) Sam Hawkins - Bee Count: A Mancunian Soundscape Welcome to Manchester, a hive of activity. Here, the worker bee is emblemic of the city's industrial past and sense of community. 'Bee Count' introduces a binaural soundscape that was recorded in Castlefield Bowl in 2025. In this central location, you can enjoy all kinds of sounds, including the whining, rattling trams and trains passing on the viaduct overhead. Interested in biodiversity and the changing climate, I have sonified data from BeeWalk surveys over a 15-year period. This piece has linked count data for the most common bee species in Great Britain to volume. Each bee species has a unique pitch: a manipulated sample recording of the Manchester tram toot. The result is a musical pulse: the number of bee sightings rising and falling over the weeks, months and years. Sam Hawkins is a sound artist based in Manchester, UK. His main interests are oral histories, spatial audio, and data sonification. https://www.instagram.com/thisissamhawkins/ 3) LANE/LOUISE – interlaced frequencies capturing the dense ambient soundscapes of winter, interlacing digital piano distressed by audio effects, atmospheric electromagnetic interferences with diy receiver, walk and traffic field recordings, and a homemade acoustic-based instrument built with household resonators, played with a bow and mediated by time-based effects. LANE/LOUISE is a duo based in Tkaronto/Toronto, Canada/Turtle Island consisting of amateur musician and group drone collaborator, CORINNE and her longtime partner, artist and musician CHRIS who also performs as IDERDOWN, a one person electronic, ambient, experimental act, and who forms one third of the band WITHIN. https://soundcloud.com/lanelouise https://www.instagram.com/iderdown13/ https://www.iderdown.com/ https://www.youtube.com/@iderdownmusic Ed Baxter, Steffan Cennydd, Richard James & Michael Umney - Between two rivers: a journey into the mind of the land/Rhwng dwy afon: Taith i feddwl y tir Ed Baxter, Steffan Cennydd, Richard James & Michael Umney - Between two rivers: a journey into the mind of the land/Rhwng dwy afon: Taith i feddwl y tir 20 September 2026 8:00 pm - 9:00 pm “Between two rivers: a journey into the mind of the land/Rhwng dwy afon: Taith i feddwl y tir” is a radio artwork in English and Welsh, realised close to the sources of the rivers Severn and Wye, in Ceredigion, Wales. These give this area a unique character which is reflected in terms of linguistic diversity, with dramatic and imaginative extrapolations and quasi-mythic content. Moving between the palpably real and the clearly ideal, this broadcast combines interviews with local inhabitants, dramatic monologue, new music and field recordings. It’s made by Ed Baxter (Resonance Radio Orchestra; Statue of Liberty Big Band; BASCA Composer of the Year 2013 etc); Steffan Cennydd (Theatr Cymru’s “Romeo a Juliet” 2025; Criminal Record; Gwledd; Craith; Yr Amgueddfa etc); Richard James (Evolution of Beauty; Hotel Et Al; Gorky’s Zygotic Mynci etc); and Michael Umney (Gold Award Winner, New York Festivals Radio Awards 2025; Winner, URTI Radio Grand Prix 2024 etc).

SPDM improvises live remixes of their recent media consumption once a month on 90mil Radio. In December 2025 they presented The Merve Tapes on Cashmere Radio, a six-hour broadcast and accompanying zine exploring a collection of cassettes housed at Diffrakt Centre for Theoretical Periphery. SPDM has recently performed (under various monikers) at Bar Neun, Roter Salon, and 90mil. They are currently working on a studio album. Amy Gowen & Andy Norstrom - Communing with the dark Amy Gowen & Andy Norstrom - Communing with the dark 20 September 2026 10:00 pm - 10:45 pm ‘Communing with the dark’ is a text-based sound work set on an unnamed island, inside a stranger’s home. In this first chapter of the work, we encounter our protagonist on her journey to the island by boat. A journey which is by no means linear, interjected with dream sequences, seascapes, portals to the past, veils of the otherworldly, and blockages across time and space. The text-based performance is accompanied by a soundscape comprising a collage of field recordings, tape loops, and haunting drones. ‘Communing with the dark’ is an audio work that explores emotional transference through maternal family lines, physical, psychological, and spiritual blockages, and the roles that nature, (emotional and physical) distance, landscape, and the otherworldly can play in the processes of non-linear healing. Text by Amy Gowen, sounds by Andy Norstrom. Artist bio: Amy Gowen is a writer and editor based in Rotterdam NL, originally from Hereford UK, who works with text-based practices across the mediums of writing, publishing, radio, and curation. She works for School of Commons, a peer-learning alternative education programme, and co-founded the commons-informed publishing project HumDrumPress. She runs the writing and radio project Off Margin on Substack and Radio Worm, dedicated to interior and exterior reading and writing lives, and text that moves off the page.

During the surveys we communicate through handheld radios, sharing observations and information about what we are listening to as we locate bats emerging from buildings and using the spaces surrounding them. Through different dimensions of listening taking place - through bat detectors transposing ultrasonic echolocations, through radio's listening to surveyors recount observations and daily life, and new musical constructions, the piece explores the thresholds of (in)audibility, between species, acts of taking care and making sense of the night. Artist bio: George is a multidisciplinary artist and spatial researcher. His work engages with acoustics, ecology and other-than-human accountability. George’s practice investigates and aims to create systems of meaning that communicate alternative forms of orientation, interconnectedness and intimacy within the context of an ecologically damaged planet.

Following the rules of the contest, with 30 minutes to charm as many worms as possible out the ground without any form of digging, the piece will extract, via the inanimate characters of the wormcast and the miasmic cloud, the relationship between urban planning, land restructure and notions of ‘the civil’. Asking why, in a period of ongoing austerity, enclosure and privatisation, there continues to be an increased focus on ‘rewilding’ council-owned plots of green space in Britain, Dung Wharf/Mount Pleasant will use the various histories and rhythms of communal production to investigate these contradictions from the bottom up. A play for 4-5 players. Artist bios: Rory Salter is based in London, working mostly with sound and performance, as a musician and sound technician. Recordings are available via Index Clean, TEETH, Research Laboratories, Zoomin' Night & others. Ash Reid is a performer and writer, currently finishing a PhD researching feminist film distributor Cinenova, and its relation to film and video production and national identity in Britain. Her work uses historic layering as a compositional practice to think about contemporary rituals of work and instances of revolt, through their specific sounds, texts and rhythms. She is a member of oral history collective MayDay Radio.

21 Jorge Boehringer - Figures in a Landscape Jorge Boehringer - Figures in a Landscape 21 September 2026 12:00 am - 12:15 pm Figures in a Landscape is a 12-hour 15-minute radio work telling the story of an environment gradually becoming conscious of itself. As listeners dip and out, they visit a world both familiar and alien, science and fiction. Much of the sound derives from a long duration recording of an installation presented in September 2025. In both works, synthesized and recorded sounds are shaped and modulated by real-time streams of seismic and geomagnetic data from the Eskdalemuir Seismic Observatory in the Scottish Borders. Rather than ‘map’ data in a rational way, sounds are floated upon or textured by it, as the boughs of an oak are floated by an unseen breeze and dappled by streams of sunlight falling upon them through taller trees. 25 paragraphs about Figures in a Landscape are added in voice-over, describing a recent visit to Eskdalemuir and other, quite varied, reflections. Artist bio: Jorge Boehringer is a composer, artist, and writer who explores texture and time, creating sonic ecosystems from natural forms, processes, and patterns. Based in Newcastle-Upon-Tyne, Jorge works as an itinerant artist and interdisciplinary researcher, specialising in spatial audio and data sonification. He studied composition at the Centre for Contemporary Music at Mills College with Pauline Oliveros, Fred Frith, and Alvin Curran, and in workshops with Allan Kaprow, Paul DeMarinis, Maryanne Amacher, and Gordon Mumma. He received a PhD from the Centre for Research in New Music at the University of Huddersfield where he studied with Bryn Harrison and Peter Ablinger.
