Film by @sam_baraitser_smith documenting our recent residency with MoKS in Mooste, Estonia.
From 29th April to 10th May we joined John Grzinich and Evelyn Grzinich (MoKS), and @georgs_viljams_hibneris for Koidukoor an event series introducing the core concepts of ecological radio ahead of the co-created broadcast Reveil which took place on the 4-5th of May.
thinking on: flat listening - Ecological Radio - borders and borderless listening - dusk walks - dawn walks - co creation - more than human collaborators - anti-hierarchical radio production - slow radio - slow making - geologic time scale - local and planetary rhythms - networks - crowd shyness - omni-directional microphones without directional subject - language barriers - radio as communication technology - smiling as communication technology - thick air - streambox workshops - open source - knowledge exchanges - community settings - new possibilities - readdressing extractive systems - preservation - distribution and distance
With thanks to John and Evelyn for inviting us, @georgs_viljams_hibneris for joining us, the students of @eka_estonian_academy_of_arts who joined us at the Ahja River valley Soundcamp, and the participants of the Mooste Youth Group who invited us to run a Streambox Workshop.
Koidukoor was part of the European Capital of Culture Tartu 2024 main program.
âButch Flight 01: I have died on hillier fields than thisâ with @marfsummers
a recording / resampling of the dawn chorus at Hilly Fields stone circle sonified through mudlarked flit stones via transducer
âan exploration about reappropriating the term âbutch flightâ, as instead an idea about soaring, and taking flight through transness, and about a queer sense of deep time-finding resonance in stones- their false appearance as static frozen objects.â
part of Marfâs wider body of research and work Standing Stone Butch
