ARCHIVE

The premiere broadcast of a radio work by former Wave Farm Artist-in-residence, Khonsu X, who writes: "From the Outside is a Community Library of Voice and Sound Archive Remix project by Khonsu X, in partnership with WaveFarm and the Oral History Summer School. Part Horspiel with a Brechtian construction, this is a crip punk primer underpinned by all the personal trauma and triggers brought up by doing oral history investigation."

Weaving archival footage and field recordings, the piece also includes two original songs written and produced by Khonsu X. Au Revoir and 3Peat were his anchors in creating transmission art that attempts to honor the voices who lended themselves, and the emotional turmoil of oral storytelling. Visit https://www.libraryofvoiceandsound.org to experience the original interviews and sounds influencing From the Outside.

Archive Remix: A Sound Art Collaboration, in collaboration with Oral History Summer School, supports artists’ creative interpretations of OHSS' growing audio archive, the Community Library of Voice and Sound (CLOVS). CLOVS is comprised of nearly 500 oral histories and over 150 songs and ambient sounds of Hudson area communities; each year, OHSS participants and alumni add up to 40 long form oral history interviews to the collection.
