Christie Blizard: The New World
This was recorded live using all analogue synthesizers and electricity. I was trying to evoke the space beyond life and death. Produced by Christie Blizard.
12:20am - 1:00am
Dirk D’Hulster: Tellurian Bell
Tellurian Bell is the 2nd installment of the audio-visual installation Bell Officium based on the Nieuwpoort carillon near the Belgian coast (the first is Harvest Bell). It contains geophonic recordings, percussion sounds and datasonification of photographs of the carillon. In addition, spectral sound of the different bells with overtones are added with great detail. The sound part consists of an 8 channel track system and can be performed on various speakers. This is the stereo version made for radio. The carillon is extensively documented with photographic collodion glass plates, see nl.blurb.com/books/11430361-harvest-bell. Produced by Dirk D’Hulster.
1:00am - 1:45am
Prepodavatelsky Sostav: Birds Of Ruins
To describe the concept of the performance, it is necessary to tell a little about the independent exhibition Zabroshka. This cultural event regularly takes place in Yekaterinburg in abandoned territories. Initially, the exhibition was a self-organized flash mob of street art artists of the city. Later, institutional artists, art groups and musical communities joined it. Artists choose the location, theme of the exhibition, distribute places among themselves and for a month paint on the walls and make site-specific installations inspired by the authentic look and features of the territory. The exhibition lasts one day. The performance of Prepodavatelsky Sostav consisted of an experiment with a combination of electronic noise, female voice, romantic poetry and mixing all the components with delay effects to achieve a psychoacoustic effect on the listener. Prepodavatelsky Sostav (Teaching Staff) is a spontaneous collaboration of sound artist and noise musician Viktor Sapronov (Ryeshta), poetess Anna Sitnikova (Leleyapoems) and musician Tatyana Trachevskaya (blcb8a).

Thleep: Broadcasts 05
THLEEP is an ongoing sound and light project exploring the therapeutic potential of neuro-acoustics and vision physiology to reduce anxiety and improve sleep. Initially developed as live performances involving large-scale LED screens and projections, in 2023 we began developing a series of audio-only works intended for listening via radio. These pieces blend natural and ambient sounds, offering experimental audio experiences that explore how sound can passively shape mental and emotional states. Integral to the approach is the subversion of perceived stereotypes of meditative sounds. The works are developed by a collective of artists, with Damian Rayne and Amit Rai Sharma being continuous members across the project. Visit thleep.earth.

Limbo Calling Ep 6: Tonight's The Night
On the anniversary of the visitation, 83 is preparing to go back to the... Thing, in the basement. But why does Leonard suddenly think it's not a good idea? Events at the outpost take a new turn in the season 1 finale. Also, we hear from a radio caller who has a somewhat more tender experience with those from beyond the veil, and we meet the people behind the exciting creative agency, Delphi's. Written, performed and produced by Pete Hazell, featuring Sean Lee. Theme music by Alex Lupo. These archive recordings throw a light for those who see shadow puppets in the noise and chaos radio airwaves. As we eavesdrop on the solitary Operator's dispatches, we wonder what we can learn about Limbo, and life at the ambiguous "outpost". All episodes available at limbotapes.podbean.com.

Manja Ristić & Mark Vernon: Calypso's Dream
"Cruel folk you are, unmatched for jealousy, you gods who cannot bear to let a goddess sleep with a man." (Calypso to Hermes, who has just ordered her to release Odysseus. Homer, Odyssey 5.120). Calypso’s Dream is a soundscape collection sculpted from the subtle sonic morphologies of the micro-environments on the island of Mljet in the South Adriatic. The collection serves as a conceptual counterpoint to Homer’s Odyssey and a critical reflection on commercial island attractions such as Odysseus’s Cave, where he was supposedly held captive for seven long years by the nymph Calypso. This project was supported by the Ministry of Culture and Media of the Republic of Croatia, and the Dubrovnik-Neretva County Department for Education and Culture. All sounds recorded and edited by Manja Ristić & Mark Vernon . Hydrophones used for underwater recording — JrF & Aquarian. Mastering by Goran Simonoski/La Plant Studio. Cover art, images, text by Manja Ristić.
9:45am - 10:00am
Kirsty Gallagher: The Collective Voice Of Greenham
Celebrating the courage and resilience of women, this feature delves into the historic Greenham Common Women’s Peace Camp of 1981. For 20 years a series of women only camps were established to protest against nuclear weapons being placed at RAF Greenham Common in Berkshire, England. Using first-hand accounts and archival sound, it amplifies the voices of those who fought for peace, shedding light on their dedication to activism and social change. Thank you to Laila Namdarkhan, Jane Roffe and Elizabeth James for sharing stories of their time at the Peace Camp. Credit and thanks to Luisa Gersteirn, Tanya Auclair and Deep Throat Choir for providing me with their rendition of the 1970's protest song 'Like a Mountain' heard at the end of the documentary. Produced by Kirsty Gallagher.
10:00am - 10:20am
Olive Jones: Spooks
"Spooks is a composition of voice notes and sound recordings from 2019 to present. I am drawn to documenting my experiences through sound as it can let you enter mystical realms that get a bit numbed in a late capitalist, relentless, ever expanding visual world. In this composition I create an experience that explores the idea of place, memory, boundaries and disrupts notions of linear time. It meanders across psychic spaces and experiences. It pulls at the edges of grief and sadness. Making a sensory experience which is overwhelming and enthralling. A subjective processing of the world, sonically drawing out beauty and abundance/absurdity and excess. It includes reversed and distorted ambient sounds, chatter in a bus station, sounds of seaweed, snippets of conversation, bouncing basketballs, laughter, moorland wind rumbles, cat purrs, distant parties and resonant gongs.” Produced by Olive Jones.
10:20am - 10:40am
Landforms: Liquid Polyphonies
Liquid Polyphonies is a sound composition that is based on a field research in the European parts of the North Sea (2022). By weaving together anthrophone, biophone, and technophone sounds, and by searching for sonic analogies between the human and non-human through a combination of voice recordings, foley recordings, and field recordings, Lotte and Gillis create an electro-acoustic composition that emphasizes the interconnectedness between human and non-human entities at sea. Liquid Polyphonies is part of the residency program of Phonurgia Nova (FR) and was created during a residency at GMEM in Marseille. Landforms is the sound collective of Gillis Van der Wee and Lotte Nijsten. Visit www.landforms.be.
10:40am - 11:00am
Stevie Jones: Tarmachan Transmissions
Tarmachan Transmissions is an experimental documentary of a collaborative recording session made at Tombreck, a sustainable housing collective on the banks of Loch Tay. It works with off-cuts and disused, peripheral sounds from a make-shift studio set up in the community’s Big Shed. This piece acts as a recursive, companion piece to the Quinie album, Forefowk Mind Me, which was produced by Stevie with Josie Vallely and musicians Ailbhe Nic Oireachtaigh, Harry Gorski-Brown and Ollie Pitt. Tarmachan Transmissions is as much a sonic portrait of place and community, located listening and DIY infrastructures as it is of co-creation and residency recording. Produced by
Stevie Jones.
11:00am - 11:30am
No Noise Projects (Chris Biddlecombe & David Trouton): Death Of A Supranaturalist
Our earlier investigations into the lost pioneers of ‘sound-recording-as-art’ led us to the enigmatic character of Charles Glancer - the North American composer, sound-recordist and obscurest philosopher. We created a performance piece about Glancer’s curious death for The Festival of Death at CCA in 2015. Since then we have continued to research and make sense of the many stories that revolve around his final recorded composition - was his body found at the piano… or did he completely disappear?
For those that follow his strongly held “idealist” position on the function of the artist, his end could be seen as a metaphysical conjuring trick – the vibrations of the artist transforming into the artwork itself. Through the reconstruction of original tapes this broadcast will piece together side-ways thoughts, intricate details, mood and sound and silence - flowing and merging - before, during, and after his death. Produced by Chris Biddlecombe and David Trouton.
11:30am - 12:00pm

Ute Wassermann: Imaginary Habitats
Ute Wassermann interweaves her voice with field recordings of birds, insects, frogs - of creatures that move across the boundaries between air, water and earth and finds new and different resonance places far away from their original environment. Fragile, seemingly natural sounds, such as the buzzing of bees under water, can be transformed into technoid drones. Snippets of soundscapes ghost through objects. 'Imaginary Habitats' is a co-commission between Radiophrenia and Goethe Institut Glasgow. Visit utewassermann.com.
12:30pm - 1:00pm
Jimmy Peggie: Climatic Voices
Climatic Voices is a sound art observation of meteorological themes. It is a sound collage made using treated environmental recordings, radiophonic transmissions, infrasound and electromagnetic frequencies. These types of sound waves are obtained from the atmosphere that surrounds our planet. The use of atmospheric acoustics plays an important function within modern meteorology and is used to predict weather patterns and other meteorological phenomena. This helps with many things including improving weather forecasting, aiding climate change studies as well as safeguarding lives and property. Produced by Jimmy Peggie.

Oliver Chapman & Phoebe Eccles: Dog Fm
DOG FM is the debut release by the London-based duo of field recordist Oliver Chapman and poet Phoebe Eccles. Combining Chapman’s seemingly banal snapshots of a family car journey with Eccles’ fantastic, reflective spoken verse, DOG FM deftly transports the listener through a series of uncanny and oft-times bizarre audio travelogs where tension and expanse alternate to disorientating effect.
2:30pm - 3:00pm
Manja Ristić: Genesis
"Genesis" is inspired by the subtle relationships between sound and space, the phenomenology of sound, and contemporary research on communication systems in nature and ecology. In addition to the violin and EMS Synthi 100, the artist uses field recordings from Montreal, Portugal, the islands of Vrnik, Mljet, and Silba, various locations in Thailand, Lake Miraflores near the Panama Canal, and the slopes of Avala near Belgrade. Produced by Manja Ristić.
3:00pm - 3:30pm
Han: Response To Annie Mac's Tweet (2018)
Annie Mac can't see the sunset as she broadcasts so asks listeners to describe theirs. This live radio broadcast describes the conditions the broadcaster finds themselves in and asks for descriptions in return from the broadcastees. This highlights the specific and unique medium of radio - temporally homogenous yet spatially heterogenous, nodes in a network, and individual experiences becoming shared through audio. Produced by Han. Visit boosterhoo.ch.
3:30pm - 4:00pm
Hans Kuzmich: Transmissions From A Carceral State
"Transmissions from a Carceral State" derives from a practice of listening to the electromagnetic and acoustic environments of active and decommissioned prisons in New York's Hudson Valley in autumn 2024. The work layers field recordings, electromagnetic emissions, and performed elements based on intercepted radio communications between prison guards. Evoking the prison as a physical structure and a discursive site, the performance listens to its past, present, and future in an attempt to imagine imprisonment's afterlife. The original iteration of this piece was developed during an artist residency at Wave Farm in Acra, NY. Produced by Hans Kuzmich.

Ruaridh Law: Territory Ii
Territory II is a newly updated version of the online work Territory from 2021. Whilst that performance was based around mapping sound from a walk onto one performance (via 2 turntables and a Max/MSP patch), this new iteration extends the idea of performing a DJ mix with maps by mixing together audio from two different walks - one pre-carried out, and the other live and phoned back to the performers in the studio. The piece plays with the idea of callers dialling in to radio shows as well as DJs performing on radio (albeit with field recordings/spoken word, rather than old hardcore records). Produced by Ruaridh Law.

Rislane Hakym: Schizophonies
Put an end to an unbearable silence, to decompartmentalize the story of a family fractured by illness. Told by the sister of a young man, whose schizophrenia declared itself 12 years ago. A decade of suffering and adaptation to psychiatric vertigo. Years, during which the attention paid to the suffering brother, made invisible the impact of an altered daily life on the other child: me. “Schizophonies” vacillates between an atypical psychic world and the pragmatic reality of a society where so-called “madness” is still worth being locked away. Produced by Rislane Hakym.
7:45pm - 9:00pm
Verónica Cerrotta: Sunset On The Shores Of The Lake. Winter
This is a series of field recordings made in the transition biome between the Atlantic Forest and the Cerrado, in the mountainous region of Rio de Janeiro. The recordings were made in different seasons of the year, between 2023-2024, and at different times of the day. Each of the recordings has an approximate duration of sixty minutes. Produced by Verónica Cerrotta.
9:00pm - 9:30pm
Kazuya Ishigami: Something Too Huge
This work symbolically depicts the complex and tense state of the global environment by beginning with footsteps, followed by the gradual overlapping and unfolding of ambient, unbalanced harmonies and noise. The footsteps symbolize the traces of human existence and its impact on the global environment. Harmony and noise symbolize the dissonance caused by human intervention in the global environment.
The acoustic space of monotonous footsteps and noise may be heard as a space of wishful thinking that the environmental problems we are facing at the moment are just a dream. The sustained resonance of harmonies may be heard as the cry of the earth.
The silence at the end may be interpreted in many ways as to what it means. Produced by Kazuya Ishigami.
9:30pm - 10:00pm
Shaun Robert: Una Habitación Real A Partir De La Imaginación
Cross talk and frequency drifting pulls the strings of his heart and relating to loops and rough editing, audio drop outs, a Sonic Organic. A mix of forms in an expanding wave , nudging and slating whim, composition dealt in reality, a truth of intimate confessional and intruding a microphone, the tension of triggered sounds to ape pictures of life. Produced by Shaun Robert.
10:00pm - 11:00pm
