Show 585 – Memento (Radio-Zero)

EPSON MFP image

Memento by Abdul Moimême.

This radio piece is what its title implies: a reminder of persons and past events, which in the present case are autobiographical as well as musical; occurrences that span a period of over 30 years and recede back to some early field recordings I did in Madrid in the early eighties.
It also served as a reflection regarding to what extent composition and free improvisation can overlap. For example, certain sections started as improvisations but were here rearranged in a composed form.
The idea was to choose motifs and work with these much as an engraver might approach a new uncharted etching, unaided by the outline of preliminary sketches, allowing each stroke to freely imply the next. Nonetheless, some sections were specifically composed for the occasion.

Composed and mixed by Abdul Moimême

Abdul Moimême is a Lisbon based musician and active member of the cities free im-provisation scene. His main instrument is the electric guitar. He has also worked as a jazz writer, since 1999, writing in various Portuguese publications such as Flirt, All Jazz and Jazz.pt magazines, as well as the Público newspaper. In 2014 he is nomination in the “6th Annual International Critics Poll”.

casting

 

 

 

 

 

 

Broadcasting as spell casting – sending out our intentions into the atmosphere, allowing them to fall where they need to, affect who they may, and communicate our deeper desires, even when wrapped in other text, and encoded into radio waves or digital data.

At Radio V&A  – an evening event at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, February 2016 – we invited people to think about their true messages, whilst reading and recording other texts. These texts, together with sine waves selected to stimulate change in the world, form sonic sigils, carriers for our plans and desires.

Thanks to all the contributors who attended our workshop, and to the Victoria and Albert Museum.

unnamed

Koímêsis is a live radio performance in French and Greek ; a political poetry choir on Europe.

« In August 2015, one month after the adoption of the Greece Memorandum of Understanding, the ‘No to the No’, I walked through the streets of Athens. The Greek Orthodoxs were celebrating the Koimesis. Koimesis means ‘dormition’. A sacred condition between sleep and death. Koímêsis forms a book of thirty-nine short poems on political and physic apathy, the sun, the beauty and the morbid. » (luvan, may 2016)

Production : Carine Demange & Moniek
Poems in French : luvan
Greek translation : Iota Gaganas
The Choir : luvan, Iota Gaganas, Carine Demange, Anne Lepère, Chloé Despax, Anna Raimondo and Deena Abdelwahed (as Moniek team and guests).
