#293. Independent sound art, radiophonic projects and other audio non-visual misunderstandings and findings. Little Buttercups; Words, Sound-Design & Original music by Ergo Phizmiz.
1. Little Buttercups.
2. Afterparty.
“Little Buttercups”, written at the bequest of Lukas Simonis, is a radioplay about why, despite their obvious artistic profligacy, Ergo Phizmiz fails to reach audiences and lives on or below the breadline depending on what month it is. It is also an attempt at apologising to their mother for existing in this way and being such a terrible disappointment. The protagonist, a 12 year old Ergo Phizmiz, is played by Caterina, Ergo’s 12 year old daughter, who is also really disappointed in her father. We hope you are equally disappointed in the play.
