RADICAL MURMUR is a three-part sonic essay on the possibilities of sound. Close your eyes, open your ears.
Part 2: RESONANCES OF LOSS. In this episode, we listen to the sighing and groaning of a tired planet. In composer Evelien van den Broek's music, we hear field recordings of animals that no longer exist. This is how she tries to make the current "biological destruction" palpable. Peter Cusack travelled to Chernobyl and other ecological disaster zones as a "sonic journalist". What do places we know from the news but that we have never 'heard', sound like? And philosopher Salomé Voegelin reflects on how the COVID-19 crisis threw us back on ourselves, threatening to evaporate the sonic "in-between" between people. "There is no inner genius, there is only an outer connection."
RADICAL MURMUR is made in collaboration with rekto:verso, Gonzo (circus) en Collateral.
