Dr. Klangendum

1. Brazen Head  by Ergo Phizmiz & Depresstival.
Ergo Phizmiz and Depresstival come bearing the message “Do not be afraid of our robot overlords, collaborate with them and discover new things”.
Co-operating in the Worm Sound Studio with the whims of the antique technological sonic emissions devices, to present a series of noisy and poptastic speculations on that great progenitor of the robot: the talking brass heads of yore.

We know that Thomas Aquinas became really angry with Albertus Magnus’ Brazen Head, and smashed it to pieces in a frenzy, but now we have to ask the question – would Aquinas have been better off listening to the robot?
Recorded at Worm Studio, a Worm/Klangendum/concertzender production.

2. 1000 Likes by Sarah Washington. (Mobile Radio)
This is a special collaborative show to mark Radia’s 1000th week of broadcasting. It features contributions from 14 member stations and affiliates of the network, which between them collected the voices of 122 participants.
The remit was simple: Ask several people to speak a list of 10 things they like, and compile their voices into a short composition. The result is a heartwarming and amusing gathering of over 1000 genuine likes, which stand in proud relief to the hollowed out kind we have have become accustomed to on social media. Participants were surprised to be asked what turns out to be a very good question.

Concept and realisation: Sarah Washington.
