Radio Papesse

"Sounds in India are strangely alive! For me, they form autonomous entities: a bell resounding through layers of different memories, the swish of a broom dusting flights of cerebral chambers, a train travelling beyond the boundaries of one’s own biography. ‘Resounding Bangalore’ is a journey in itself and an invitation to cherish an indigenous sound world played back through the ears of a “stranger”…… with no constraints to timelines and topographies.

‘Resounding Bangalore’ was composed on the occasion of an epigynous radio art performance in India, when I was staying there within the frame of the Goethe Institute’s BangaloREsidency in collaboration with the arts and media collective maraa. This radia edit is a slightly extended version of it."
