Today, Lia Kohl introduces a work from Claire Williams and Julien Poidevin; and Tom Roe features 2023 radio art from Polish artist Jeff Gburek. And tune in Julian Hoff's "Chants Migratoires." Created by Claire Williams and Julien Poidevin (2021). Introduced by Lia Kohl. Oscillations is a live sonic performance for radio that uses our Ethernet lines and communicating machines as a canal to interact with the electromagnetic waves and vibrations that surround us. Sound is used to modulate space and time as machines, antennas, radios, microphones and body's to stream these ethereal vibrations taken from different locations on the earth and from our atmosphere in real time. Sonifying the electromagnetic activity of the sun, meteors and radio echoes coming through the atmosphere, the activity of tweaks and spherics oscillating in the ionosphere, or tuning in the local radio station: these are some of the electromagnetic waves that Oscillations uses to propel us on an immersive journey into the invisible. - Introduced by Wave Farm Radio Art Fellow 2023, Lia Kohl. And tune in for 2023 songs from Jeff Gburek's "The Radio And the Sea" and "Still Life With a Question Mark" albums. And Julian Hoff's "Chants Migratoires," from the "Deep Wireless 9" CD from New Adventures in Sound Art.
Welcome to "The Radio Art Hour," a show where art is not just on the radio, but is the radio. "The Radio Art Hour" draws from the Wave Farm Broadcast Radio Art Archive, an online resource that aims to identify, coalesce, and celebrate historical and contemporary international radio artworks made by artists around the world, created specifically for terrestrial AM/FM broadcast, whether it be via commercial, public, community, or independent transmission. Come on a journey with us as radio artists explore broadcast radio space through poetic resuscitations and playful celebrations/subversions of the complex relationship between senders and receivers in this hour of radio about radio as an art form. "The Radio Art Hour" features introductions from Philip Grant and Tom Roe, and from Wave Farm Radio Art Fellows Karen Werner, Jess Speer, Andy Stuhll, José Alejandro Rivera, Tyler Maxin, and Iru Ekpunobi. The Conet Project's recordings of numbers radio stations serve as interstitial sounds. Go to wavefarm.org for more information about "The Radio Art Hour" and Wave Farm's Radio Art Archive.
