"Spinal Tap", but about a collective of computational artists and live coders trying to avoid flights and book train rides to events, gigs, festivals and residencies throughout Europe.

    Back in 2014, over at the @mediateletipos blog, I wrote about the famous recording of the internal radio communications of Pinochet's troops during the 1973 Coup in Chile - also known as "la interferencia secreta", this recording was leaked and widely distributed by the Alerce label.

    Today, on @mediateletipos, I write about a different field recording from this dramatic day in Santiago.

    In an act of "citizen phonography" Doctor Puente Martínez used a reel-to-reel tape recorder and set it up on his window sill, capturing a recording of both the combat in the streets during the assault on La Moneda palace, and the domestic soundscape of his own flat.

    In other schemery news, it appears that the Scheme Steering Committee is alive and kicking. They have accepted John Cowan's resignation from Standards Working Group 2, and appointed Daphne Preston-Kendal as the new Chair of Working Group 2.

    Great news overall - we might even get a R7RS-Large Report before Extinction.

    "... because in a sonic cosmos,
    binaries haunt each other in the same breath."

    Like (I imagine) many others, I have been banging my head trying to get an understanding of the sonic implications of the pandemic and the global climate collapse.

    Here, in "Uncurating Sound: Knowledge with Voice and Hands", Salomé Voegelin gets pretty close.

    El Ruido es el Mensaje 27: «Espejo (((o))) Acústico» is now out!

    Had a great conversation with Franco Falistoco and Gerardo Figueroa Rodríguez for El Ruido es el Mensaje.

    P.S. I probably should CW this as "in Spanish". But there are also sounds and noises in any language.

    In this interview, conducted between Argentina (Franco Falistoco), Chile (Gerardo Figueroa Rodríguez) and Spain (muggins here) we touched on some aspects of my sound practice.

    One was the impact of teaching and facilitating and how they feed back into more standard sound art practice. Another one was my concern for the role of the body in listening, and the presence of the listening body in the soundscape, as well as a discussion of (collective) sound memory, and the archival strategies that can be deployed in order to support it.

    Oh, and, inevitably, we touch upon radio-activism, which is where all three of us come from.

    Catch it here:

    Those of you braying about polysemic hashtags like here on Mastodon should read up on the etymological origins of the name of the large tusked mammal.

    Dear ,

    How do you spell the gerund of the (neologism) "to mastodon"?

    I'm at a loss here.

    The consensus points to "Mastodoning".

    Back in the day, on a different social media site, I got a bit carried away with that Bayeux Tapestry mash-up tool. I ended up featured in a mag, here:
