A continuous stream of short musical creations, each under two minutes. Miniature masterpieces interwoven and occasionally interpolated, transitioning seamlessly from the briefest to the longest – a perpetual motion of sound.

Sound collage, record spinning, havering, ear wonk and general head scratch with Dylan Nyoukis of the Chocolate Monk label.

The programme moves between artist talks, panel discussions, audio artworks and live performance. Across these presentations, artistic research offers forms of situated knowledge production, operating alongside and in dialogue with social, scientific and technological methodologies.

The symposium takes place on the radio as a live broadcast accessible via FM in specific locations and globally via a dedicated online ‘listening room’ with a text-chat function for listeners to interact with and contribute to the ongoing broadcast. Live captions can be enabled via Chrome’s accessibility settings. Listeners are invited to tune in and out across the afternoon and evening, encountering the programme as a distributed, time-based experience.

This is a Creative Research in Sound Arts Practice (CRiSAP) event curated by artist-researchers Hannah Kemp-Welch, Lia Mazzari and Anna Clock. The symposium is hosted on the radio by artist cooperative Soundcamp and locally from their studio in London. The event is made possible by support from London College of Communication (LCC) Research.

Curated by artist-researchers Hannah Kemp-Welch, Lia Mazzari and Anna Clock.

How might electromagnetic listening bring sound art, environmental research, and scientific sensing into closer relation? This symposium-on-the-radio brings together artists and researchers engaging with the electromagnetic spectrum as both material and site of inquiry. Fifteen contributors present work exploring natural radio phenomena, electromagnetic listening practices and questions of spectrum access.

Now: Archie Archive. Special guest Marold Langer-Philippsen intertwines personal and political history.

Every day on SAVVY Funk at documenta 14 Mobile Radio (Sarah Washington & Knut Aufermann) delved deep into a collection of artefacts and memories, rendering them into radiophonic form. This series called Render live features old audio formats and conceptual works smothered in the hiss of time, plus special guests.

This episode features João Polido, a Portuguese musician, composer, and lecturer who investigates cultural memory, tradition, sound technology, and the socio-political history of music. The title of this talk, “Spectral Lore of Tradition”, emerges from his observation that, as oral memory fades from contemporary life (paradoxically aided by recorded media), traditional music and folklore become suspended in a kind of temporal loop.

Shaped by structures of power in Portugal’s history - particularly during the military dictatorship and its aftermath - these forms reveal complex dynamics of aural remembrance, abstraction, and reference. Framing remembering and forgetting as intertwined acts, Polido explores spectral processes in audio as both remediation and a strategy in the face of the failure of recognition. As Nagel and Wood write in “Anachronic Renaissance”: “There was no ‘original’, in other words, until someone tried but failed to replicate it.

The original was the creature of the replica.” This talk was held as part of the programme of OUT.FEST’s 21st edition, at Casa da Cidadania Cabós Gonçalves in Barreiro, Portugal, on the 3rd of October of 2025. The podcast is bookended by the tracks “Contours” and “Prova de Existência” by Polido, taken from his 2024 album Hearing Smoke (Holuzam).

Bi-monthly insights into the activities of the European project tekhnē, which started in 2023.

Merrie Melodias is back with a new series and new rubrics! And that means new digger discoveries are waiting for you from the bottomless catalogue of the Soviet major label Melodia. As is good tradition, we start with an episode about folk music. This episode features melodies from Central Asia, the Lesser Caucasus, the Baltic States, Africa and South America and other countries of the world.

This episode highlights the intersection of the sound of the world's three main musical instruments - the lute, the lyre and the reed pipe - with each country having its own modification and name. This is the story of how the sound of a Burundian funk band's electric guitar transforms into the trill of an Uzbek dutar, the sigh of an Azerbaijani zurna turns into the moan of an Armenian duduk, and the tinkling strings of a Paraguayan harp turn into the dreamy chords of a Madagascar valiha.

Uzbekistan-based DJ and boss of the experimental TOPOT label Eugenie Galochkin presents rare vinyl rips from the Soviet Melodia label. Melodia has released music from all around the world: from obscure Baltic electronica and free jazz from Siberia; to synth-pop from Tajikistan and academic avant-garde from Ukraine. The series will explore how national and cultural characteristics are embedded in musical language.

This episode features new works by Ave Aqua Mater, Dirk Serries & Asmus Tietchens, David Strother & Carl Royce, Richard Begin, Jonathan Poliart, 400 Lonely Things, Kabra, Mario Lino Stancati, Paolo L. Bandera, IUGA, and Brandcommando.

Radical Translations is an interdisciplinary project which explores the role of translation in the spread of radical, democratic ideas during and after the French Revolution. The students translated the manifesto during a series of workshops led by the poet and translator Cristina Viti.

They also interpreted and adapted the text to the stage with the help of the dramaturge Simon Hatab and the French theatre collective La Phenomena, in a dialogue with the work of Jean-Jacques Rousseau and the philosopher Jacques Rancière, as well as the music of Mozart in The Marriage of Figaro (1786), culminating in a performance at Sands Films Studio in London.

An audio essay and documentary which follows a group of students from King’s College London as they translate The Manifesto of Equals (1796) by Sylvain Maréchal from one language, time and context into another, but also to the stage in the presentation of Performing Utopia. Written and produced by Patrick Bernard, it explores how politics, theatre and translation transform our understanding of the world, and reflect a desire to make words and ideas manifest. For more information visit Tenement Press who are publishing an anthology of radical translations, An Anarchist Playbook, in January 2024.
