Hans Kuzmich – Radiant Center
Thursday, 10 September⋅7:45 – 8:30pm
This evening at 7:45pm Hans Kuzmich captures transmissions and vibrations propagated through sand, water, soil, trees and border infrastructure to reveal how security apparatuses and environmental forces co-constitute a disputed terrain.
“Radiant Center” was created during a residency at the Nida Art Colony on the Curonian Spit, a UNESCO World Heritage Site whose unique dune ecosystem is bisected by the Russian-Lithuanian border. Originally a four-channel sound installation, “Radiant Center” is presented in stereo for Radiophrenia. 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.
