24 HOURS OF RADIO ART 2024 > 10h00 - 11h00

Curated By: CiTR 101.9FM 24 Hours Of Radio Art Team Featuring: The Deep Bleed | Dan Potter | Negativland | Laura Pitkanen | Vittoria Assembri and Gaia Ginevra Giorgi's "Poesie per Piante Infestanti, Rane, e Bandite" ("Poems for Weeds, Frogs, and Bandits"). Undecided fragment of the planetary garden, the Third Landscape is a space that doesn’t express power, nor submission to power. What emerges is a correspondence with poetry. Poetry, like the Third Landscape, is a place of unproductivity, a practice that cannot be capitalized. It deals with the residual, the interstitial, the undecided, the functionless. Institutions are not interested in it and, in this sense, it can be expressed as a "common space of the future". Feminine plural: Poetry for Weeds, Frogs and Bandites is a sonic trip between soundscape, poetry and architecture. The project was developed during a research residency at Atelier A, in the border area between the Ligurian West and the French Maritime Alps. Three forms of architecture abandoned by humans and reactivated by other species were identified by the artists: a greenhouse, once active for the cultivation of Eucalyptus cinerea, a former irrigation tank and a bunker from the Second World War. The artists decided to read poems to the new inhabitants of these habitats. All the poems are by the poet Gaia Ginevra Giorgi and were recorded on site. Then, through site-specific sound installations, the words were spread throughout the rooms, and the new landscape was re-recorded, over and over.
