Radiophonic Rituals: Artist’s Line-up

14 hours of nocturnal radio ceremonies from 5:57 pm on, temperatures between 13 and 8 degrees with a waning moon, and our artist list is just great!

It is also fitting that October the 21st is also the “Worldwide Day of Feminist Radio”. Datscha Radio’s online stream will be shared from about 11 pm by two radio stations, Freirad Innsbruck and Freies Radio Neumünster, until sunrise. From midnight on, we can also be heard in England on Sound Art Radio. From 2 o’clock in the morning you can listen to us on 88.4 and 90.7 in Berlin and Potsdam.

Again, our program is free floating and will follow the comings and goings of the guests, and drift along with the smoke from the fire bon and the night winds. The Datscha radio team Gabi Schaffner, Kate Donovan, Niki Matita and Helen Thein is looking forward to greet the performing artists from nightfall on. In alphabetical order these are:

• Ansgar Wilken – “The Secret Rhythms of Tulpen and Narzissen”
• Christina Kyriazidi “Trauerrituale der Elefanten”. Mit Niki Matita
• Ela Spalding – “Sundown”
• Jodi Rose – Free Style Conversation Rituals
• Kat Austen – Molecular Midnight
• Marold Langer-Philippsen – “Maschkara”
• Monaí de Paula Antunes and Kate Donovan – Ein Gespräch über: ring – a performative information and embodiment system for time travel and other multidimensional perceptual experiences
• Niina Lehtonen-Braun – Iltakahvit mit Niina Nokkonen
• Niko de Paula Lefort – “Aurality”
• Peggy Sylopp – “Soundwalk Datscha”
• Sisukas Poronainen – “Singing Fires. The Pauanne Archives 2006”

“Breaking Nuts” and Specials

This autumn, the hazelnut trees of the Datscha garden gave us an unusual harvest: in their shells they each host a secret story (or its continuations) that will be “hand-picked” by the radio makers. We will also broadcast a number of specials, such as Martyna Posnanska’s “Requiem for a Fly”, a lecture about killing methods involving “The Blue Flower of Death“, a reading on mushroom ceremonies as well es a short radio play by Hermann Bohlen.
