As per instructions I took a recording of a car driving past, rain on cobblestones and me live scanning a FM radio band on my field kit. I screwed around with the playback speed of the samples and fed parts of the audio into Rings and Beads. I had a relaxing jam in the conservatory watching birds flit across the bird feeders and feeling the sub bass rattle of a bus speeding down the main road.

Tune In Tune Out (disquiet0479)

Smog

Dissolution

"Sequence" by Ilaria Boffa

Folded back on the floor, the body 
where beams filter among
toes, lap, hips, the lips.
Torn to shreds they want it, open
a cleft in the concrete.

And it’s incomplete in its standing
a demi-something. For cut up
they want it, writhe in pain.
The agony of deprivation outruns
virtue and shame.

Do you see the escape?
My legs, pale
the spine scratching on the white.
I may only expose the wrists
how abiding the touch.

Eventually sort them in sequence.
Each ligament and nerve.
Leave nothing, nothing of us.
Trees encroach on the hills
fling the window open.

(homage to Francesca Woodman photographer 1958-1981)

The Project: Complete a trio by adding a track to an existing duet by two other musicians.

I added two tracks of a Volca FM organ patch + Avalanche Run delay/reverb to fill out the bass and add some mid-high overtones and slight counter melody to tracks from @anotherbenjamin and @homeontheland . You can find their first two parts of our trio here:

Land, Bow and Stars - [ disquiet0474 - policeaction (3 of 3) ]

My audio collage was made by setting up two radio music modules, one playing banks of unfinished tracks I'd done and another filled with audio recorded from public radio. I also set up the radio receiver on a Koma Field Kit to live scan an FM band, whilst the sources were triggered and scrubbed by a complex rats' nest of clock synced LFOs.
I can't really call it a composition as it was me simply setting up a process and documenting the chance encounter. Somewhat fortuitously the Field Kit locked onto a local station broadcasting Covid public service announcements hence the title. Consequently the mix is very rough and unpolished and the chance interplays of radio snippets is best heard on headphones.

Radio Covid (disquiet0478)

Disquiet Junto Project 0478: Make a collage that will become part of a larger collage.

A collage is usually a collection of selected snippets. This collage is a collection of snippets that were left over after selection happened: A sample of this here, a track of that there, things that didn't fit anywhere. In this collage they finally have a home.

John Cage “Wherever we are, what we hear is mostly noise. When we ignore it, it disturbs us. When we listen to it, we find it fascinating.”

Wherever We Are (disquiet0479)

I am a human animal & through my creative practices seek to connect to the flow of life to let my innate intuition guide me before my logical mind controls me. To undo or at least side-step some of my cultural conditioning so the spirits of the place I am in can express through me. This  forest I am in, the rock I sit on beside this stream, the footpath below my feet, this vast planet we all live upon. The natural world so often unconsidered, ignored, I aim to give it some voice.
