Show 076: sonictags

Since the current Radia Show is aired on the week of our Radio Territories conference: Media-Space-Society, our contribution is a mix of works produced for the 2nd Budapest RT workshop, featuring soundscapes by listeners and community radio broadcasters.
Our working group consisted of Tilos and other local community radio broadcasters, who – along with listeners set out to artistically conquer the Budapest airwaves with their small radio transmitters and special contents.
It is a mix of excerpts from works by Tamás Opitz (listener, videoartist) using Spanish language political speeches, Tomanek (Tilos broadcaster) walking in the rain with Grace Jones, Tamás Kenderes (listener, electric engineer) reinterpreting the great War of the Worlds and Gabriel Dubuc (listener, intermedia artist) recording the atmosphere of a local Spanish language nursery school and a singing fest.

Show 074: My Foolish Machine by Caroline Kraabel

Caroline Kraabel presents a study of her foolish machine – the saxophone. Eight players with their saxophones of varying sizes are asked to present their foolish machines to the unsuspecting listener, what they can do and what they like to do with it. The results are multilayered. Besides Caroline one can hear amongst others Lol Coxhill on the soprano and Tony Bevan on the bass saxophone. Produced by Caroline Kraabel with help from Martin Williams

Show 072: today

Imagine a time were bananas rule countries, and onions make peaches cry. Imagine a time where all Kofi Annan can do about bad middle eastern restaurant victims is to send his sympathy words. Imagine how Fidel Castro bowel sounds like and you should have a glimpse on what this show is all about. It’s not a timeless piece, it’s a show about today, about what is happening right now! In a quite alternative fashion, japur and d’Lay improvise some tunes while making no sense at all. They also play some songs that best describe the world today: were a joyfull meaning can be found in bowel cancer. Music, portuguese poetry and congentitallearned stupidity. This is a show about today!

Show 071: Les Nuits Blanches du Capitaine by Jacques Foschia

Musicien improvisateur (London Improvisers Orchestra,Canaries, PIM, Bohman family) il développe depuis quelques années une approche particulière du médium radiophonique.
Ses travaux les plus récents (Orchestre téléphone, Microphonic) *www.microphonic.be* témoignent de son intérêt pour les processus mettant en relation les phénomènes sonores dans une dynamique mobile et migratoire.
Fidèle au poste, il a collaboré aussi à la webradio japonaise Kinesonus et réalise des pièces sonores pour la webradio Silenceradio depuis sa création. Il anime aussi avec son complice Alain Bolle une émission (Kwad9) sur la radio associative bruxelloise radiopanik. Elément
bruitiste et sonore de la “brocante sonore” récemment constituée (en trio avec Alain Bolle et Anthony Carcone), il est aussi membre de l’Atelier de création sonore radiophonique basé à Bruxelles.

Présentation de la “fiction”

LES NUITS BLANCHES DU CAPITAINE

Fiction sonore en trois épisodes.
Les éléments textuels servent de guide à l’écoute. Le capitaine évolue essentiellement dans un milieu liquide et flottant. L’usage de matériaux sonores qui y font constamment référence (le capitaine échoue dans un océan d’ondes éléctromagnétiques et termine sa course sur une plage de vinyl) submerge l’auditeur et l’emmène dans sa dérive.

Découpage:

1) Perdition:
Le capitaine évite le naufrage de justesse, sort d’ un comas éthylique avancé, négocie un mouillage plus sûr en même temps qu’il se vôtre dans la luxure avec la fille de Pharaon.

2) Meurtre à la foreuse
Le ménage prend l’eau…la scène vire au tragique et fini dans un bain de sang. Ici, on ne sait pas qui est la victime: l’homme, la femme ou une tièrce personne – en l’ ocurence l’auditeur.

3) La chanson du capitaine
Le capitaine rame tout seul sur une plage de vinyl et entame son chant de litanie…les chants les plus beaux sont les plus déseperés. Rôdent autour de lui une nuée de corbeaux noirs.

2) Meurtre à la foreuse (murder with a driller?)

Their relationship is sinking. It becomes a tragic bloodbath. We don’t know who is the victim : man, woman or listener.

The captain is rowing, alone on a vinyl beach and start to sing with black crowes hovering above him.
