We tune in daily to the glacier's cyclical sonic material life, allowing us to witness meltwater rhythms, sediment flows, avalanches, landslides, animal life and the seasonal impacts of weather and tourism entering the microphones, in real time.

Sonic Darts # After the Rave ▾

This month: After the Rave. Following our last show which covered the connections between drum & bass, jungle and computer game music, After the Rave traces connections between ambient music, chillout rooms and the quiet spaces of computer games.

Moving through work by Autechre, The Orb, Lustmord and Susumu Yokota, alongside music from Donkey Kong Country, Super Mario 64, Metroid Prime, Resident Evil and Ico, we explore how sound makes room for recovery, attention and retreat.

The journey leads from shared spaces beside the dance floor to bedrooms, underwater worlds and temporary refuges inside horror games. Repeated melodies and unfolding textures give virtual environments a sense of permanence, allowing players to linger, explore or breathe. A save room becomes a shelter; a familiar loop becomes a remembered place.


Gwaith Swn's Sonic Darts is a London-based sound art collective presenting new sound works, performances and discussions.

I Want to Eat the Earth: A Sonic Almanac From the New School of the Anthropocene # Winter Solstice ▾

This episode was created for the Winter Solstice of 2024, a time of extreme dark or light in either direction, a hunkering down in the wet earth or a baking out in the hot sun. The piece is composed by Stephen Shiell using original material from NSOTA scholars.

With contributions from Stephen Shiell, Rhona Eve Clews, Chris de Sel,** Sk.ye, **Lu(Lu)Lu, Blanc Sceol (Stephen Shiell & Hannah White), Clare Whistler, Michael Timmerman, and Simon McClelland Morris.


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.

"A geography of sound [...] is the geography of encounters, misses, happenstance and events: invisible trajectories and configurations between people and things, unfolding in the dimension of the actual while formlessly forming the dimensions of its possibility" – Salomé Voegelin, The Political Possibility of Sound

In this piece, called halls (joining), Barkani continues his exploration of combining field recordings and minimal/reductionist instrumentals, to compose and perform imagined, semi-coincidental, (what Voegelin calls) “impossible territories”.
