Broadcasting tonight on Resonance Extra is NAUS #1 - an hour of improvised electronics recorded live on board ‘A Slice of Reality’ at the first edition of NAUS, a series of events I’m curating there over this year, each one being archived as a radio show after the event.
As a guardian of the Slice I’m exploring and understanding the site as both a public sculpture and a private environment that sits beyond the boundaries of the usual. These radio shows are recordings of live events, happenings to explore the tensions that exist between the public and private. Curating the series around his own love for experimental electronics and improvisation is a way for me to bring communities into this setting, a chance to celebrate an underground London culture in a place that hasn’t been commercialised or capitalised, even though it lies in the heart of these very environments.
‘Naus’ refers to the Ancient Greek word for ship, and also recalls the word nausea, a ‘ship-sickness’, that reflects the artist’s feelings towards the neo-liberalist landscape surrounding the ship. The sounds created here are a form of electronic improvised noise resistance.
This episode features a remote appearance by Anina Hug, a duo of Andrej Bako and Lucia H Chung, and the 4046 Group (Matt Atkins, Regan Bowering, Lucia H Chung, John Macedo, Flynn McHardy, James Shearman, Stephen Shiell, Vicky Sparrow, Paul Watson, Tom White, Angharad Davies).
