"Don’t panic," a live performance by Chris Farmer in the Panik studio from Radio Panik (Brussels, Belgium) via the Radia network. "Radia" is a group of radio station seeking new and forgotten ways to make radio. Each week one station makes a show to share with all the others, including WGXC/free103point9. This show was a live perfomance by Chris Farmer in the Radio Panik studio, based on a previous work he did a few months ago for a german galery (Expo Berlin). The work he did in Berlin resulted in an improvised performance which was an electronic, harmonic and visual echo of the surrounding urban space. In Brussels, Chris farmer proposed to the Radio Panik listeners to recreate the poetic and harmonic experience of that particular urban landscape, which he recorded and translated with his sound recorder and coloured pencils. Living and working in Brussels, Belgium, Chris Famer is of vaguely British origin and a self-taught gardener, linguist, musician and artist who composes and improvises in all of these media. Since the early 1990s, he has gardened, translated and created his way through France, Belgium and the UK. His quest is to find poetry in noise and the botany of language, hoping to one day compile a formally chaotic and above all subjective monograph of the world that confronts him, and us, every day. Since an early age, Chris Farmer has been influenced, or obsessed, by song and sound, and especially how it can be transformed or dismantled, as seen in the works of Anthony Milton, Michael Gira, Richard Skelton. He currently experiments with the relation between languages, culture, sound, structure, horticulture and art, in various random combinations.

The Saturday before Christmas is sure to find the NYC airwaves full of carols, and Joshua Fried remixes the airwaves he receives in Brooklyn and sends them to the Hudson Valley in an all new form on this weekly show.

Radius Sketchpad is an ongoing monthly program on WGXC 90.7-FM presented by the Chicago-based platform, Radius. This month features Desh & Ekis's Xprmtal Short Wave Radio B-Side (Radius Edit), originally produced for Radius, and is followed by a playlist of works selected by the artist.

Site: Argantek Industrial State, AIII Motorway, km 23, MAD ESP.

A landscape of scrapheap hills, rusty heavy-duty machinery, abandoned building sites sheltering engine cults’ followers. A constant metallic buzzing interferes with encoded technical transmissions and radio spectrum “white spaces” while, high above, floats a chaos of frequencies.

Two short wave radio broadcasters establish contact through these airwaves, their dialogue sent back to the listeners of the area who are unaware of such free-form vibrations coming from their speakers.

XMITTER: Digikampradesh [D3SH] … nisutronics improvisations … registers and manipulates the incoming radio signals with a Zenith Transoceanic Royal State D7000Y radio and a third rate MP3 recorder … guitar hero drones … teletypes become robo clappers … oriental jammers taste their own medicine … a night flight across a storm …

RCVR: Ekis [X] … ArD2′s Left Brain … translates, remixes, and produces the output … all info waves are subject to be recast as drum patterns (easier to memorize) … pulses transformed into melodic lines … jammed stations back on air … strength signal amplified …

It all sounds like a polygonal reverb.

Xprmtal Short Wave Radio B-Side (Radius Edit) is a special Desh & Ekis edit for Radius. For the the A-Side, visit digikampradesh.wordpress.com and ard2music.com.

"In Other News" from WBAI's Geoff Brady, host and independent radio producer in New York City, via Pacifica Radio Network. He writes, "Discussion with author/researcher/activist Amy Worthington, one of the first to write about details of the aerosol operations during the late 90s, sort of before most of us became aware. Recently, Worthington has written two very important well researched articles on the physiological hazards of the wireless age, specifically the effects to cellular structure and DNA from cell phone use . Her article "Generation X-Ray - Child victims of Technological Abuse, and Microwaves: The Radiation Poisoning of America" research and document the studies that you don't hear about in North America. The reality is that cellphone users in the U.S. and Canada have not been told the truth about the dangers of wireless radiation. Now as most are emotionally addicted to cell phones it could be more difficult to effectively impart this information. There are some eye opening clues in this interview that Worthington imparts: The Russian government has warned pregnant mothers not to use cell phones; Wireless radiation oscillates cells 2.4 billion cycles per second - breaking DNA; All 200 types of cancer begin with broken DNA; 24 hours of cell phone use = 1600 chest X-rays; Wireless radiation opens blood/brain barrier, easy access for barium and aluminum; Quiet build up as wireless technology = surveillance = police state."

A look at the issues, and the coverage of those issues, raised by the Newtown shootings told thru narration, music, and soundbites.

Live from Acra with host Tom Roe.

Rebroadcast. SnowFlow, a three-day collaboration Feb. 11-13 2011, at the Full Moon Resort in the heart of the Catskill Forest Preserve, brought together artists, activists, farmers, biologists, and organizations from all over NY and PA to raise awareness over the threats to our most vital natural resource - clean water. Informal conferencing took place at meals made from locally farmed food and with skiers at nearby Belleayre mountain. There was snowshoeing, snow shelter building, and a special, pure water inspired concert curated by Suzanne Thorpe of EMF and ISSUE Project Room.

From TEA FM (Zaragoza, ES). "time_sound_machine_broadcast." The historical memory of human race is based on records. The cave paintings, Etruscan reliefs, Roman mosaics, the first printing ... All these records were visual, touchables. This program collects ten moments of human history which reflects the importance of sound and elements that reinforce its communication power. But just as the perception of a painting environment changes depending on where it is observed, in the light of external factors to it, the message conveyed sound varies accompanying interference. Let's look at these companions more than the message itself. We'll be surprised what we can hear if we pay enough attention. It is not until the second half of the nineteenth century when the first sound recording is made. Édouard-Léon Scott de Martinville patented in 1857 the phonautograph, considered the first device capable of recording sound in a visible support. In this radiodocumental we can hear the first known recording that has come down to us is 1860, Au Clair de la Lune. But the first sound recordings of graphophone, the first intercontinental phone call, sound captures from voices born before 1800 ... A trip uploaded to our time machine to travel the sound recordings that have marked the last two hundred years of our history.

This is the legendary 1978 samizdat recording of "Audience," starring Václav Havel (1936-2011) as Vanek and Pavel Landovský as Sládek. It was recorded by folk singer Vladimír Merta in his Prague appartment in 1978 and published by the Šafrán label, ran from Upsalla, Sweden, by Czech exiles Jirí Pallas and Jaroslav Hutka, both signatories of the Charter 77. The LP was unofficially circulated in Czechoslovakia and many Czechs knew parts of the play by heart after 1978, despite the fact any Havel publication was banned in the country since the 1968 Soviet invasion. Havel himself was briefly imprisoned in 1978 and continuously from June 1979 to January 1984. This is a rare example of a record which proved dangerous for its authors, as well as for the entire Soviet system. Czech record company Bonton officially published the recording for the first time in 1990, soon after Havel became president of Czechoslovakia in December 1989. Václav Havel and Pavel Landovský in "Audience" (as it is titled in Czech) belongs to a trilogy of partly autobiographical one-act plays also known as the Vanek Trilogy, comprising Audience (1975), Protest (1978) and Mistake (1983), based on Havel’s experience of being forced to work in a brewery and under constant harassment from the Communist regime. Taking place in the brewery’s office, Audience is a meeting between the brewery’s manager Sládek and employee Vanek. While the manager is clearly opening too many beers and inducing into binge drinking, it is less clear what he wants from Vanek, though it ultimately transpires he has a deal to offer: a promotion agaisnt informations on Vanek’s political activities.

Legendary free jazz saxophonist David S. Ware died Thu., Oct. 18. We will play some of his most amazing moments. There is a memorial for him Jan. 7, 2013 in Manhattan.

From Wikipedia:

"Ware's recorded debut was in 1971, on a privately-produced LP recorded by Abdul Hannah, an alto saxophonist from Boston. He went on to record with drummer Andrew Cyrille and pianist Cecil Taylor. In the late 1970s and early '80s Ware recorded more regularly as a bandleader, and formed his acclaimed quartet in the early 1990s. The quartet was originally composed of Ware, pianist Matthew Shipp, bassist William Parker and drummer Marc Edwards. The drum chair was later occupied by Whit Dickey, Susie Ibarra, and Guillermo E. Brown. The quartet released a string of well-reviewed albums mostly on small record labels, but saxophonist Branford Marsalis signed Ware to two-album deal with Columbia Records in the late '90s.[2] Ware dissolved the quartet in about 2007, after the release of the album Renunciation. He has since recorded albums for solo saxophone, and with several different supporting bands. Suffering from kidney disease, Ware was able to undergo a successful kidney transplantation at the age of 60, after receiving a kidney donated in response to an email message sent out to nearly 1,000 of Ware's fans." He was 62.

"Radio, Radio" is a sixteen-part series of forty-five minute broadcasts which asks an honest question: Is there really a place on radio for experimentation? Twenty people immersed in radio, sound and performance offer, in their own ways, answers to this question through conversation and the presentation of their work. This episode: Jennifer and Kevin McCoy are Brooklyn-based artists who cycle, repeat and morph pop-culture tropes and images. Their series of microradio installations conflate gallery patrons with pirate radio listeners while ironically tweaking the language of novels like Frankenstein, Alice in Wonderland and the corporate-promo-speak of the web.

Lawrence D. "Butch" Morris (February 10, 1947 - January 29, 2013) was an American jazz cornetist, composer and conductor. From Wikipedia: "Morris was born in Long Beach, California. Before beginning his musical career, he served in the US forces in the Vietnam War. Morris came to attention with saxophonist David Murray's groups in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Morris's brother, double bassist Wilber Morris, sometimes performed and recorded with Murray during this period. Morris led a group called Orchestra SLANG. The group features Drummer Kenny Wollesen, alto saxophonist Jonathon Haffner, trumpeter Kirk Knuffke and others. He performed and presented regularly as part of the Festival of New Trumpet Music, held annually in New York City. He also played with well-known artist and would be drummer A.R. Penck in 1990. Morris is the originator of Conduction (a term knowingly borrowed from physics): a type of structured free improvisation where Morris directs and conducts an improvising ensemble with a series of hand and baton gestures. These conductions have received generally positive reviews, and are often considered quite unique, not quite fitting into any one musical genre: critic Thom Jurek has written, "There are no records like Butch Morris' conduction sides, nor could there be, though he wishes there were."[1] and Ed Hazell writes, "At his best, Morris can shake players out of their old habits, or place a microscope on one aspect of a musician's artistry and build an orchestral fantasia around it." Morris died of lung cancer on January 29, 2013 at the age of 65."

This edition of framework:afield has been produced in Vancouver, Washington, in the United States, by John F. Barber. Ambient Pulsations explores a universe of pulsating sounds, all without apparent physical sources or attributes of materiality. This inability to visualize sound sources promotes an acousmatic listening experience focused on the act of hearing. As a result, we take interest in sounds for their own merits, refining our listening through repeated listening, thus becoming more aware of our listening variations and subjectivity. This work imagines itself a narrative, but, what does it sound like to you?

Two episodes of "Radio, Radio" from Ubuweb. First, Jane Draycott & Elizabeth James have been collaborating on radio poetry projects for several years. Their work has been heard on the BBC and on stations and networks around the world. Draycott's latest collection Tideway (Two Rivers Press) is a collaboration with artist Peter Hay. A sound montage made during the writing of the book features in the Summer 2002 issue of Boomerang UK. James's poetry has been published by Vennel Press, Form Books and Writers Forum (the latest being Recognition, 1999). Her other collaborative projects include: Neither the One Nor the Other with Frances Presley and 'Two Renga' with Peter Manson. Then, John Oswald's 1989 CD Plunderphonics spawned a new category of music which samples not just pop songs, but their cultural contexts as well. Since then Oswald has refined his "electroquoting" on the CDs Greyfolded, Electrax, Discosphere, Plexure and the recently released Plunderphonics box set. In his Radio Radio program he talks about the legal machinations that have surrounded his work and plays a range of examples.

"Radius Sketchpad" is an ongoing monthly program on WGXC 90.7-FM presented by the Chicago-based platform, Radius. This month features Klaus Filip / Nicolaj Kirisits / et al.'s Cultural Morphing, originally produced for Radius, and is followed by a playlist of works selected by the artist. "Cultural Morphing" is an experiment in creating a multi-perspective image of reality from the simultaneous experience of a geographic line by the individual expression of a perceived personal reality. Twelve invited artists traveled by train from Vienna to Shanghai, and selected stops along the route served as their workspace where they would meticulously work out an project that outlined various aspects of cultural transition experienced on the journey. Stopovers at Ulan-Ude, Ulan Bator, Beijing and Shanghai were used to exhibit the works that were created en route. China emerged as the focus and destination for "Cultural Morphing" because of the mutual, cooperative, and also oppositional status of digital art between China and Europe. Europe and China are two antipodes in cultural history that have been in steady interchange, but have also developed differently and independently from each other. This cultural deviation is the starting point and the ultimate potential of our project. Adequate to the technology of morphing, the realization of the individual artworks will be a consummation of the artistic interpretations of many keyframes on the tracks between Vienna and Shanghai. The broadcast for Radius will feature a score developed through filming a dinner at a Chinese rotating table. The images captured through filming from above the table during the course of the dinner were sonified with data and acoustic recordings collected along the journey. The artists involved created individual sound files based on a video score that were later combined into one stereo track.

This seven-part series focuses on the extraordinary work of Scanner (British artist Robin Rimbaud) who traverses the experimental terrain between sound, space, image and form, creating absorbing, multi-layered sound pieces that twist technology in unconventional ways. From his early controversial work using found mobile phone conversations, through to his focus on trawling the hidden noise of the modern metropolis his restless explorations of the experimental terrain have won him international admiration. free103point9 is delighted to be working with the artist on this special broadcast event February 3-9, 2013 from midnight to 6 a.m. Each night, the broadcast will focus on a specific theme including live performance, sound installation, dance scores, film scores, composition, and radio works.

Tune in the jazz, the collaborations, the hip hop samples, of trumpeter Donald Byrd. Byrd died Feb. 4. From Wikipedia: "Donaldson Toussaint L'Ouverture Byrd II (December 9, 1932 – February 4, 2013) was an American jazz and rhythm and blues trumpeter. A sideman for many other jazz musicians of his generation, Byrd was best known as one of the only bebop jazz musicians who successfully pioneered the funk and soul genres while simultaneously remaining a jazz artist.... While still at the Manhattan School, he joined Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers, as replacement for Clifford Brown.... After leaving the Jazz Messengers in 1956, he performed with many leading jazz musicians of the day, including John Coltrane, Sonny Rollins, Thelonious Monk, and later Herbie Hancock. Byrd's first regular group was a quintet that he co-led from 1958-61 with baritone saxophonist Pepper Adams, an ensemble whose hard-driving performances are captured "live" on At the Half Note Cafe. In June 1964, Byrd jammed with multi-instrumentalist Eric Dolphy in Paris just two weeks before Dolphy's death from insulin shock. In the 1970s, Byrd moved away from the hard-bop jazz idiom and began to record jazz fusion and rhythm and blues. He teamed up with the Mizell Brothers (producer-writers Larry and Fonce) for "Black Byrd" (1973). The Mizell brothers' follow-up albums for Byrd, Street Lady, Places and Spaces and Stepping into Tomorrow, were also big sellers, and have subsequently provided a rich source of samples for acid jazz artists such as Us3.... During his tenure at North Carolina Central University during the 1980s, he formed a group which included students from the college called,Donald Byrd & the 125th St NYC Band.... He taught at Rutgers University, the Hampton Institute, New York University, Howard University, Queens College, Oberlin College, Cornell University, North Carolina Central University and Delaware State University. In addition to his master's from Manhattan School of Music, Byrd had two master's degrees from Columbia University. He received a law degree in 1976, and his doctorate from Columbia University Teachers College in 1982. Byrd lived in Teaneck, New Jersey until his death on February 4, 2013 at the age of 80."

"From the Vault" of Pacifica Radio Archives, a 1987 interview with jazz trumpeter Donald Byrd. This recording is one of perhaps two dozen from a mid-1980's series called "Night Journey," produced by James Graves, in which an outstanding roster of musicians, artists, and filmmakers were featured by virtue of their positive role within the Black community. Subjects of Night Journey included the likes of pianist Ahmad Jamal, drummer Al McKibbon, director Spike Lee, and this "From the Vault"'s featured voice, Donald Byrd. While Byrd certainly made his mark playing with many of the 1950's jazz legends, what truly set him apart were the innovative soul and funk sounds he incorporated into his work during the 1970's.

International broadcasts about radio overnight. Broadcasts showing how radio is used by artists and communities all over the world. From UNESCO: "13 February is World Radio Day — a day to celebrate radio as a medium; to improve international cooperation between broadcasters; and to encourage major networks and community radio alike to promote access to information and freedom of expression over the airwaves. As radio continues to evolve in the digital age, it remains the medium that reaches the widest audience worldwide. This multi-purpose medium can help people, including youth, to engage in discussions on topics that affect them. It can save lives during natural or human-made disasters; and it provides journalists with a platform to report facts and tell their stories.

Space.com reports asteroid DA14 nearest approach today will be 17,200 miles.

Radia Show 409: Dogs and Architecture by Ergo Phizmiz and the Radio Anywhere Ambassadors for Soundart Radio. Radia is an international network of radio stations interested in creative and forgotten ways of making radio. Each week, one station makes a radio art show to air on all the others. This week: Why Dogs? It’s great to have an intelligent animal around. Maybe it’s time for human beings to take a step back. Why Architecture? Now more and more people are recognising the contribution dogs have made to architecture. Join us in a celebration of doggy design and canine construction. Why Ergo Phizmiz? Thanks for coming to lead a workshop on our Radio Anywhere project. And bringing along a rare photo of an architect dog. From that it was a short step for the Radio Anywhere Ambassadors to find a dog genius to interview, recordings from the dog relaxation spa, extensive reviews of building design, sounds of disgruntled cats, songs about dog builders, statements from pro-human-architect campaign groups and a machine that translates dogs thoughts. Why Radio Anywhere? Radio Anywhere Ambassadors meet to talk about radio ideas, produce work together, and to broadcast from their homes, streets, neighbourhoods, towns and planet with Soundart Radio’s little-studio-in-a-box. As they do this they will inspire more radio makers they meet along the way, as part of our station’s redefinition as a network of small connected studios. Noises and voices by Robert Davidson, David Harbott, Lona Kozik, Danielle Rose, Ariane Delaunois, Alice Armstrong, Remi Romeder, Chris Mockridge and Jenny Wellwood. Assembled by Ergo Phizmiz and Lucinda Guy.

In early February, 2013, a Montana television station was overtaken by some sort of pirate signal, that triggered an Emergency Alert System announcement of a zombie attack. The station released this statement: "Someone apparently hacked into the Emergency Alert System and announced on KRTV and the CW that "dead bodies are rising from their graves" in several Montana counties. This message did not originate from KRTV, and there is no emergency. Our engineers are investigating to determine what happened and if it affected other media outlets." Days later, reports of other on-air intrusions began to spread, with four reports so far.
