prosthetic sentiments

radio residency on radio.syg.ma: post instrument instrumentals and decentralized hauntology trickling from the persistence and antagonistic fragmentation of certain memories.

hook the other side over an insulated nail, assume logically that an object twice as heavy as another, would fall twice as fast. return to the surface. this time cast into it a stretched coil extending outwards. ask someone to tug onto the other end and feel the latent pressure in your diaphragm. the possibilities have now diminished. note down the results.

A radio-friendly recording of the audiovisual quadrophonic iteration of Avalanche film by Carlos Casas with Cerpintxt, presented at Boundary Condition .06 in IKLECTIK Art Lab. Avalanche is a multiformat work, an expanded ethnographic research, and film, based on the millenary spiritual richness of the Pamir region and its journey to oblivion. An audiovisual meditation on disappearance, and time as well as the unstoppable avalanche of civilisation. The film follows the dusk of a village and the endurance and resilience of its inhabitants and traditions.

A turntablist extreme plunderphonics mix by Gyorgy Ono, presented at Boundary Condition .05 in IKLECTIK Art Lab. An amalgamation of primal musique concrete, anti-ambient, and percussive non-music.

A timelessness arises from this sonic archaeology and the rogue frequencies he traces from thin air, encompassing the visceral, serene, cathartic, and absurd. Mapping a sound-world which delves into arcane stratospheres and probing melancholic wayward realms from far-flung corners of the universe.

Utrecht-based musician Wouter Van Veldhoven creates home-made musical instruments and recording devices from discarded objects, reel-to-reel tape machines, broken radios, toy pianos, antique televisions, etc. His output shifts between dusty, lo-fi experimental ambient and organic, automated minimal techno.

Remote collaboration between Cerpintxt and Stephan Barrett comprised of recorded fragments, tape loops and exponentially regressive vocals serving as a backdrop for hydrophones, clarinet and kacapi.

Cerpintxt invites Daryl Worthington for a takeover. With his project Beachers, Daryl works in the crossovers between accidental and composed sounds, hi and lo-fi audio

Cameron Naylor is a sound artist creating on the boundary of electroacoustic and acousmatic composition and audiovisual art. From forest to trains, this new mix presents a pastiche of memories. Sometimes tactile, other times abstract and otherworldly, it documents a personal transience experienced towards the end of 2022, and an ever-evolving practice behind both microphone, and speakers.
