족보 (Jokbo) was originally aired on Radiophrenia, 20 Feb 2022, as part of their Shorts program. Jokbo is a compilation of dream sequences, memories, and voices that are based on my family tree - hailing from the Korean traditional practice of genealogy books. 

Fragments of people from my own family that I’ve never met and from those that are present in my life are recollected through audio notes detailing my dreams of them over the course of the year, and through EVP recordings. The audio sequences were generated randomly during the live performance and broadcasted through HAM radio.

Location: London, UK (Amateur Broadcast)

Season 3 of Radio Insistence is created as part of the class Art Education 5795: Global Indigenous Arts: Education for Settlers which I am teaching at This* Ohio State University in Fall 2024. Each episode, taking its starting point from an artwork at documenta 14, the global contemporary art exhibition split between its regular home (since 1955) of Kassel, Germany & Athens, Greece. Then, during the episode, I will reflect on my own journey as a settler for developing a new curriculum together on Solidarity and Accomplice Building in the Arts.

Attraction or affinity to place. The work is an attempt to construct a meaningful intimate aural space, where texture and spatially defined figures have a broader capacity for action due to their multichannel nature. The recordings of source materials form the beginning of an investigation into capturing and working with spatiality in micro space using bespoke hardware.

A New Age Mystical Music Mix

On golden hares is a project to release the acoustic organ from the confines of the church and spread its sounds from the inside out onto the streets for all.  It has also been a compositional discovery for Matthews who has been playing and recording the Walloner church organ in Magdeburg over a month in this extraordinary city.  Magdeburg has a history of destruction experiencing two periods of violent assault that all but destroyed it, resulting in a wide range of architecture from early Gothic to socialist to present day standing side by side providing homes and spaces to widely diverse and visible communities. Tourists and the river Elbe river add to the mix and Matthews has mapped her outcomes to the different streets,  highlighting and responding to the shifting contexts. The resulting composition is minimal then lush, open to give you space to hear then demanding to colour your ride, frequencies harmonising then conflicting as they float and bounce from the sonic bike as you go. Look up.  You just might hear something.
