Poly-Sync. A Collective Radio Performance.

Lets celebrate a very special birthday together – 100 years of radio in Germany – and become part of our collective radio performance – 12th November 2020 6–7 pm (CEST):

Wherever you are, go for a walk with your radio – in the city, in the park, in your apartment. If you do not have an old school radio, use your phone and a boombox (if you are not in Leipzig, you will need internet on a smart device to connected to us and get instructions anyhow). Via your receiver you will be connected to us and all the other people who are going for a walk with their radio. Listen to the voices of our four performers (– sorry German), follow instructions (– in German, English, French, Arabic), and synchronise with many others who are doing the same thing at the same time. All can share their experiences during the performance via instant voice messages that will become part of the live broadcast. Tell us how people react, what you do with your radio, what it means to you… Please also film yourself taking your radio for a walk and interacting with it, post the videos under #polysync, #100jahreradio, #anybodyoutthere, send the material to us, and we will share impressions of the collective radio performance online.

The performance will open the exhibition “Anybody out there?! 100 Years of Radio in Germany” of the Gallery D21 in Leipzig. Afterwards Felix Kubin will play while the radios carry his tunes into public space.

Sound walk

Weiße Elster – interactive composition

The post documents an audio exploration of the Weiße Elster river in Leipzig, using various microphones and the Automatic Speaking voice improvisation method to capture the river's diverse sounds between six bridges. It highlights the river's role in shaping the city's environment and character by providing natural soundscapes, meeting points, and a dynamic connection between humans, animals, and nature.

30 days of walking: citizen sourced Slow Radio

Handing the controls over to the listener might not be the best advice in every case for broadcasting radio but when one is trying to create a month long sound walk it seemed the obvious thing to do.

Wanders in the (wild) smart city

Combining song, text and binaural recordings, this sound walk prompts participants to engage with hidden digital processes in the urban landscape. It is geo-located, so through Echoes, sounds are triggered automatically in the walk locations.

stroam

Do you like to stroll? Are you a fan of roaming? Then you should give stroaming a try. This is a word blend, just like brunch. In her 1796 novel Camilla, Frances Burney described a character who “stroamed into the ball-room, with the most visible marks of his unfitness for appearing in it.” The OED indicates that stroaming involves “long strides” and/or idleness, so watch your form and attitude when out on a stroam. Credits to Mark Peters.
