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.

“What is Radio?” – To find answers to this question we immersed ourselves deeply in the world of radio – poetic spoken atmosphere together with a cacophony of thoughts about historical moments in radio-periods were the result. In nearly every person’s life radio plays a major role. But what radio is to the individual mostly differs from what it is for the masses. We guide you with surrounding sounds, voices, words, languages, music and silence through the fascinating and diverse world of radio. You just have to listen.

Producers: Maria Herold & Özge Dayan Mair

The Elektronik Teatime is an informal monthly event where artists working with electronic media are freely invited to rewire and cook electronic art in the afternoon.

The focus of this workshop-like atmosphere is especially held on the integration of a multitude of different forms of electronic expressions, e.g. literature. The thereby produced acousto-visual output will be presented to the indolent majority of the open public if the producers agree on its quality.

The centre of an eventual focus point addresses artists that are enlightened by the topic and the meaning of the realxed teatime in our modern society of new media. This time artists where encouraged to deal with the idea of Bruchstücke…

The Elektronik Teatime was found as a collective in 2006 by Christoph Jokubonis and Lale Rodgarkia-Dara, then Stefan Fraunberger came along and after he left many others followed, stayed as organisators for a while, left or stayed as participators. Among all of them Stephan Roth, Christian Friedrich, Una Steiner, Reinhard Dundler. At the moment the organisational collective consists of Caroline Profanter, Lale Rodgarkia-Dara, and Anna Steiden.

The current recording you will listen to took place during the paraflow-festival on 23^rd of September 2012. Starting with some preparation around 6 pm, many people joined the session and included sound, texts, voice, streamings, and visuals or cakes, analoge and digital. It lasted till 11 pm. Besides the concept of withdrawing performance-pressure from the artists, it’s main goal is some kind of trial-and-error of many different locations and acoustic surroundings, including out-door and no electricity, temporary used spaces or stages. This time the location, which is temporarily used by the Weißes Haus is a former school at Argentinierstraße. The building is a typical Gründerzeit-House built at the beginning of the 20^th century providing a school-like atmosphere for those who had gone though Viennese schools and an open interesting acoustic between thick walls for those who weren’t.

This time Jörg Zemmer, Peter Pichler, Anna Steiden, Caroline Profanter, Christoph Jokubonis, Christine Schörkhuber, Reinhard Dundler, Michael Zacherl, Lale Rodgarkia-Dara, Anna Frida, Andreas Stoiber and Mona Hollerweger were part of the Elektronik Teatime.

The Elektronik Teatime was invited by the music-curators of the paraflow festival Andreas Stoiber and Anna Steiden.

DIGGING RADIO

Yet another annoying piece of radio art?

In the beginning there was the paraphrase. Starting from the search for radio art events to be reproduced we ended up looking into landmarks of radio history in connection with art– hopping from its beginnings to the digital turn.

Listen to a simulation of history and how it is digged out of its holes.

A radia show by Kristina Fromm, Lale Rodgarkia-Dara, Fiona Steinert

supported by Barbara Kaiser, Karl Schönswetter, Sara Norris, Christine Schörkhuber und Judith Purkarthofer.

this sound collage is an offer to contemplate “expectations”. intros and interludes are little sound sculptures which are preparing the listeners for the main feature. this time you will have to deal with the fact, that the emotional energy of these little ‘push-ups’ is potentially increased by consuming only this type of sound. the question is – what will happen to you when you are listening to such a great amount of emotional uplift? Do listeners really believe in the power of music or will they rather be afraid of the epic shift in consciousness?
technical info: you are listening to original samples. there are no effect overdubs on this mix.
