Radio Concrete #32 - Cerpintxt

Radio Concrete by Hagai Izenberg is a monthly experimental radio show which deals with live mixing and processing of field recordings together with radio broadcasting and concrete sounds. Fresh raw materials including everyday sounds, samples from tv & radio, news editions and advertisements are all gathered on a regular basis and then mixed together with live sources (FM and AM stations and other live online streaming sources) and objects (such as amplified/hacked toys).

In this episode: An amalgamation of fragmented events with a focus on Arabic hauntology and Bedouin poetry; decomposing and recomposing the material to reveal latent features which persist regardless of this ongoing decontextualization, reallocating our gaze from meaning to contour. Featuring cerpintxt.
