#78. A programme with independent sound art, radiophonic projects and other audio non-visual misunderstandings and findings. With productions of Resonance FM from London and Radio Nova from Oslo.
1. Second Sketch for Ascent and Descent/A Secret Postscript. (Resonance FM).
The Resonance Radio Orchestra was up in Scotland in August 2014 when Resonance104.4fm broadcast Remote Performances, live from Outlandia, Glen Nevis, in a collaboration between the radio station and artists London Fieldworks. This live radiophonic work is called Second Sketch for Ascent and Descent. It was written, arranged and produced by Ed Baxter, and features Ed Baxter (bass guitar), Tam Dean Burn (voice), Ewen Campbell (whistling), Miriam Iowerth (xylophone), Peter Lanceley (electric guitar, singing), Charlie Menzies (fiddle), and Michael Umney (piano). In November 2014 we asked eminent American country singer Bob Cheevers to read a script for a new work. At the end of that recording he improvised a fragmentary text which – since it fitted perfectly with the theme, unbeknownst to Bob – we’ve now combined with the other Remote Performances material as A Secret Postscript.
2. Between by Vidar Martens. (Radio Nova).
“Between” is a work by Vidar Martens.
It`s an audio piece made out of the soundtrack from the 1967 movie “The Graduate”.
“I have a vivid memory after falling asleep while watching The Graduate. My only perception of it was bits and pieces from the sound melting together with my dreams. ”
