Welcome to walkplacedistancetime.

Walking, movement in place, in air, distance through time.

In this episode: Iceland ... every three hours for 24 hours ... eight times ... daag einn I juni ... I stand and look east across the fell to the obelisk. Beyond it the northern shoulder of Burfell rises then slips away off its hog’s back summit. Stand and listen to the plaintive pipe of the Golden Plover and the croak of the Snipe.

Stand … then move off ... down the slope; through the Marsh Marigolds; over the stream; cross two fences; cross the horse paddock to the leaning post; along the horse path; around to the fence to the left; over the fence; cross four streams; pass the waterfall; cross the marsh; cross the stream on stones; up the slope to gap in ridge; up the slope to the lip; around the obilisk; pause; retrace my steps ... eight walks ... eight sections ... split ... re-built ... into a day at random ... eight movements ... this is movement 1.

Turkish classical music playing in the silversmith shop in Sultanahmet ... the micro sounds of rocks, dirt, and bushes near the historic Orthodox Orphanage in Princes' Island".

In this episode, Arpeggios Everywhere.

Composer Olof Cornéer is obsessed with arpeggios. Under his Night Gestalt-alias he has created three albums full of arpeggios: slow, fast, rhythmic, free flowing. To him an arpeggio is so much more than a broken chord - it’s the essence of music. It’s melody, harmony, rhythm and a peculiar movement at once: standing still and moving fast at the same time. Arpeggios live outside of time. Here is an hour with his favorite arpeggios, some from the classical world and some from the electronic.

Injazero Records founder Siné Buyuka plays a selection of electronic, experimental, ambient and contemporary classical tracks.
