The New School of the Anthropocene is a radical experiment in alternative education, away from marketisation and arcane specialism towards co-sensing systems change through creative practice. This is an ecological transmission of DIY ethics, non-hierarchical structures, radical networks, interconnected sensing through sound, text, voice, spoken word, human and more-than-human collaborative practice, patchwork group thinking, and radio art.

Cosmic, transcendent sounds and exploratory electronics with f.ampism.

In this episode, Dronica meets Eraldo Bernocchi for our first guest mix of the year.

Eraldo Bernocchi is an Italian composer, arranger, producer and guitarist with a solid reputation as an all round sonic sculptor. Starting his career in the late 70’s, Eraldo co-founded the conceptual audio project SIGILLUM S, a highly acclaimed international cult act.

In the 90’s, together with his wife, the visual artist Petulia Mattioli, Eraldo established Verba Corrige Productions, which became the base for a raft of notable audio visual projects and cooperations.

A relentless sound explorer, Eraldo Bernocchi has collaborated with numerous artists including Mick Harris, Bill Laswell (official), Nils Petter Molvaer, Harold Budd, Russell Mills, Toshinori Kondo, Raiz, Almamegretta, Spectre, Sensational, DJ Disk, Professor Shebab, Thomas Fehlmann, Zu, DJ Olive, Markus Stockhausen, Giovanni Lindo Ferretti, Robin Guthrie, Colin Edwin and Balazs Pandi, among many others.

In 2008, together with music lover Giacomo Bruzzo, Eraldo founded RareNoise Records, a new London based label, which aims to showcase a wide range of cutting edge music. The label has since become an important conduit championing several forward thinking and original artists, as well as releasing a number of Eraldo’s own recordings, including with Tony Wakeford, Colin Edwin, Ted Parsons just to name a few.

In may 2018, the long awaited Cy Twombly documentary film soundtrack album he composed, was presented at MoMA The Museum of Modern Art NYC.
