(in)tangible transmissions

In sonic excursions, (in)tangible transmissions delves into electromagnetic interferences and aerial transmissions. With specific kinds of antennas, artists follow the inconspicuous spread of radio frequencies and radar over Floating's open-air terrain that is characterised by both urban and natural ecologies. Sensitive to radio atmospheres, materialities and local topographies, the artists explore the sonic potential of the wave fields as they interact with this particular site.

Sound and concert installations, developed by Kris Kuldkepp and Wouter Jaspers, as well as a workshop hosted by Martin Kuentz invite the audience to participate in radiophonic observations and a collective ›remote listening‹. Drawing from their personal experiences at the location, the artists explore the complex and dynamic interplay between nature, technology, people and the urban environment.

The focus is on dialogues, interactions and learning processes. With hybrid antenna sculptures in Wouter Jasper’s concert installation, audiences learn to interact and disturb radiophonic wave patterns, becoming interceptions to create field fluctuations and chaotically noisy whistlers. Kris Kuldkepp's work examines the ›paranormal‹ sound field and radically re-embodied resonances of spiritual movements that surround us. The workshop will introduce the basic principles of radio waves in detail and allow participants to create their own receiving and transmitting devices.
