"TOUCHING BASE - THE HERE AND NOW" was one of the many highlights of the Night Marathon of Radio Art on the occasion of "Recycling the Future - 10 Years of Radio Art", but it was broadcast early in the morning and in the FM 4 program. Which is why this new piece by the founder of the legendary cassette edition Audio Arts is now being presented in the program of Österreich 1. The piece is a simultaneous conversation between individuals which overcomes all temporal, geographic, cultural, linguistic and spatial barriers. This is made possible by a special strategy developed by William Furlong, who originally comes from the field of fine arts. The strategy involves "reconstructed" languages and sounds, which he uses as a transmitter, practically as a common denominator. A method which makes it easy for historical personalities from various parts of the world to talk to other from different periods of time, for example the present or the future. This results in a "language composition", with an attempt to set universal and global communication into movement. The traditional barriers with which we are familiar, which are associated with language lose their solidity and linguistic differences become irrelevant. A form of conversation, contained and transmitted in a linguistic shell, develops which frees itself from the mooring of historical events and meaning. William Furlong published cuts and interviews from the event RECYCLING THE FUTURE in his cassette edition AUDIO ARTS. Ordering and other information: AUDIOARTS@aol.com

Radio FRO
im KUNSTRADIO
CLICK HERE FOR SOUND
| Im Rahmen von "Recycling the Future" gestaltete und produzierte Radio FRO zusammen mit der Linzer Gruppe First Floor Electronix unter dem Motto "plug&play" aus der Stadtwerkstatt Linz eine eigene Lange Nacht der Radiokunst. Dieser Night Long Jam aus der Linzer Stadtwerkstatt, in den auch Material von den Ereignissen im Wiener Funkhaus und von anderen Außenstellen einfloß und der umgekehrt immer wieder Teil der ORF Radiokunstnacht war, wurde von Radio FRO lokal im Kabelnetz Linz ausgestrahlt. RADIO FRO hat für die Lange Radiokunstnacht aber auch ein eigenes kleines Hörspiel produziert, das jetzt ebenfalls zum ersten Mal auf Österreich 1 vorgestellt wird. |
