Show 571: Taxonomy of sonorous order (Radio Orange 94.0)

Categorising, tagging, assigning and conducting research as a creative process. Where do art and order come together? How do artists use archives or archived material? Does the digital card index therefore need a digital artist? How can digital archives be handled artistically? What are the interests of community radio stations? What is the infrastructure like? Lale Rodgarkia-Dara and Karl Schönswetter want to use a live (radio) performance to transform material from archives and on-site recordings into a live feedback transmission and thereby establish a seamless transition between a reticent lecture and an in-your-face live show. What happens if the public annotates the transmission and creates a new work of art out of the archive molasses? An acoustic overwriting of a long day of busy conferencing mixed with archive material from the conference participants. Well, now we know.

Lale Rodgarkia-Dara and Karl Schönswetter from Vienna used an analog catalogue of the Cultural Broadcasting Archive and Live-Recordings from the conference “Radio Archives in European Community Media” to activate free radio archives.
“Taxonomy of sonorous order” was recorded 6th june 2015 in Halle.

Show 522: Anstatt (Radio Orange 94.0)

ANSTATT tells a story happening in Vienna. It explores the different ways to live and experience one city. Two characters narrate one day in Vienna and their narratives mix throughout the piece until it seems we are dealing with one person. Additionally the sound piece highlights the soundscapes of Vienna as a third character. The represented field recordings echo  the content of the character’s impressions throughout their day. Due to their atmospheric use they develop a distinct  narrative on their own.

ANSTATT is an attempt to  propose a polar meeting: what do we imagine about Vienna and what is its real acoustic representation? It’s real inhabitants? Finally confronting the majestic Vienna with other identities, more down to earth.

ANSTATT is non-fiction turned into fiction : it has been co-written by Barbara Huber (AT) and Léa Promaja (FR). Written in English and German, the text is based on the author’s personal experience and relation to Vienna.

Show 497: “Where Have You Been?” by Maria Herold (Radio Orange 94.0)

This radio show will take you on a trip to various places in cities and countries. A canon-like conversation between city and country surrounded by field recordings from Austria (Vienna, Tirol), Italy (Ligura) and Switzerland (Valais) highlights the good and the bad sides of both. There are moments when they harmonize and fit seamlessly together, but sometimes they repel each other. You will listen to cows, people, waterfalls, birds, fire, cars, thunderstorms, trains and many other sounds.

Some field-recordings will be recognized from the very first listening but you will also hear recordings were you can´t be sure whether it is in a city or on the countryside. And maybe there will be the desire to be at one of those places. But whether you find yourself in a city or on the countryside, there will always be the longing for the countryside when you are staying in a city and the other way around.

Maria Herold studied Musicology and worked at TV-Music Departments. Part of the International Radio Network: Radia.fm in Vienna. Loves to make music and sound art: kakophoniedergedanken.tumblr.com

Show 473: Radiagund

RADIAGUND by Kaiser & Schönswetter for Radio Orange, 94.0 – Vienna

Two people in a town of 2 millions found out that they both are connected to a tiny village in upper austria called St. Radegund. They decided to make a trip to their memories concerning this place on a hot summer weekend in august 2013. Fortunately they were allowed to stay at the former elementary school of St. Radegund, the building which is the key to intense memories for both of them. Radiagund is a collage of sound scape, direct quotes and voice recordings. Barbara Kaisers und Karl Schönswetters show is a reflection about memories and the process of remembering in general.
