The Radius series was inaugurated to present experimental works made for radio broadcast to a wider audience. Due to lack of support and rigid ideas about media in this country, Radio Art is almost completely unknown here, though it is alive and well in Canada and Europe (where it is acknowledged as a legitimate art form.) This is not "radio theater", not "background noise!" Works chosen for this series stand up to repeated listenings. They challenge listeners' preconceptions and invite them to activily engage the material.
Curated by Helen Thorington, director of the New American Radio series. Includes works by Sheila Davies, What is the Matter in Amy Glennon? - a witty, fast-paced and well-written merger of science, mythology and philosophy in relation to the Self; Helen Thorington, Partial Perceptions - an exploration of relationships between nature, machine and woman made possible by recent technologies - (with vocalist Shelley Hirsch and musician Joseph Celli); Terry Allen, Bleeder, - a fictional biography about an enigmatic Texas gambler, faith healer, gangster and hemophiliac (with performance artist/actress Jo Harvey Allen - of David Byrne's True Stories film - as the storyteller.)
Also curated by Helen Thorington. Features works by L.A. performance artist Jacki Apple, Voices in the Dark - a look at the cosmos as repository of information broadcast from the earth - (with vocalists Anna Homler and David Moss); Donald Swearingen, Salvation at 1 AM - cannibalizing late night television; and Gregory Whitehead, Pressures of the Unspeakable - an investigation into the nervous system of the city of Sydney, Australia.
The sounds on this tape are, in all cases, short excerpts from larger works, environments, or processes...sound often being simply one facet of the experience of a given work. In these works there is a strong sense of new or enlarged contextuality of sound - musically, spatially, temporally, sensually or socially. This "who's who" sampler features excerpts of works from 39 audio artists, including Annea Lockwood, Bill & Mary Buchen, Hildegard Westercamp, Bill Fontana, Richard Lerman, Jim Pomeroy, David Behrman & George Lewis, Gordon Monohan, Charlemagne Palestine, Liz Phillips, Leif Brush, Ellen Fullman, Pauline Oliveros, Carl Stone, Paul Demarinis, Alvin Curran, and others. Sources is offered in hopes of glimpsing these emerging soundscapes. (90 minutes)
