Radiophrenia Redux: "Hexagon Heart" by Marjorie Van Halteren, "Reel It Reels" by Rebecca Wilcox (Audio)

Feb 17, 2020
Produced by Mark Vernon and Barry Burns.

Hexagon Heart is a sound poem/musical story of Marjorie Van Halteren’s emigration to France in 1992 and what has become of her heart. Hexagon Heart was a Radiophrenia commission produced with the support of Creative Scotland.

Originally made for a 5.1 surround sound scenario, Reel It Reels is an exploration into the slips between confidence and reticence when voicing questions and statements about positioning. The jumble of sounds attempt to give the manipulated, uncertain voice a rhythmic home, holding it temporarily so that the utterances have something to rub against. https://soundcloud.com/rebeccawilcox
