A composition made from the imagined and actual intercepted fields of electro-magnetic and acoustic signals in and around my apartment in Toronto, Canada. This piece seeks to express some of the wireless action surging daily on site. I am particularly interested in the relative flatness and depth perceivable in both acoustic and Hertzian space, and in the diminishing horizon in the city as a result of urban design and an exponential increase in wireless infrastructure (or electro-magnetic clutter). Additional filters include mason jars, theremin, ring modulator, staged interference, and delay. This show is best enjoyed on headphones, for those listening online.
Show 198: OUT OF SPACE-war of the worlds
Live-Radio-Drama on the occasion of the 70th anniversary of Orson Welles’ interpretation of H.G. Wells’ novel War of the Worlds on Oct 30th 1938.
Lange Beschreibung A scenic reading, electroacoustic performance, incl. live-streaming and live terrestrial broadcasting.
„When it comes to radio and audio we are much closer to the
subliminal text of our society.
Literature and audio open up a new reception onto the
vestiges of the accelerated world.“
Lale Rodgarkia-Dara
On Oct 30th 2008 Christine Ehardt (academic part) and Lale Rodgarkia-Dara (artistic part) organised a new production of war of the worlds based on the novell by H.G.Wells at the Planetarium in Vienna.
Within four weeks more then 20 artists (electroacoustic musicians, actors and visualists) joined the production, including live-streams from Cologne and three radiostations took over the live-stream and included the live-drama in their programme.
Radio walks towards its original immediacy.

Show 197: quand le LA n’est pas là by DJP
It’s been made by DJP, an inventor of several new electro-acoustical instruments and devices.
The piece is a kind of pseudo scientific conference about Fmajor, a
surrealistic, pata-conference. The talking part is in french, but anyone can get his point very quickly.
How occidental music could have been much different if it was not for this Fmajor obsession.
Une bonne écoute
Show 196: Bouquet Of Radio Students Work

Special: Radia 2008 Review by Ricardo Reis and João Bacalhau
35 minutes to highlight the production for the whole year of 2008 of the Radia network would compress the 44 radio programs (1232 minutes), in a 0.028 ratio…
The 2008 review mix for Kunstradio represents a personal choice (compiled by Ricardo Reis and João Bacalhau) of the amazingly large spectrum of material that was produced throughout 2008. A list identifying the shows that were plundered for this work is given bellow (no special order). We hope it entices listeners’ curiosity to listen to more Radia shows and check the descriptions on http://www.radia.fm. And, YES, if you are an artist, send an email to the station nearer you and propose a program to Radia.

Show 193: The Military Landscape Show by Jay Needham
Lange Beschreibung The sonic resonance that surround current and former military landscapes have intrigued artists working with sound. Memories of power and technology settle as an uneasy layer in these environments, creating opportunities for artists. I intend for this to be an on-going series, hopefully weaving in writings, interviews and inviting collaborations.

Inside a hunting dwelling on the Pribilof Islands in the Bering Sea (amplified whale bone, grass, rain, wild celery and a wind harp) Funter Bay Internment camp (slats of the goldmine camp building where they were interned, windharp, rain) Windharp and weeds at a Cemetery across from the Internment camp at Funter BaySeals on St Paul Island, the Pribilofs Ugadaga Bay, looking towards Biorka Island and an Iris in the wind and snow, recorded on Unalaska Island.

4. Richard Lerman, Trinity Site (5:12)
Trinity Site, near Alamagordo, NM, was recorded in April 1997. Two times a year, the site where the first atomic bomb was tested, is opened up to visitors and many hundreds of people attend. I began recording from the car as I entered the military check point. Later, I recorded sounds from piezo disks attached to glass pieces that I placed into the earth. Also heard are sounds recorded from the fence surrounding ground zero and amplified, grass, weeks and footsteps of persons at the site.
