Tanna Island

Volcano Mount Yasur, Tanna Island

Saqiya (Arabic: ساقِية, the Arabic name of a mechanical water lifting device) was a village in Palestine .
The village was situated on uneven terrain on the central coastal plain, 8.5 km east of Jaffa. A number of paved roads passing through or near the village afforded it easy access to Jaffa, Lydda, Tel Aviv, and adjacent villages as well.

According to Israeli sources, the village was attacked and captured on 25 April 1948; a Palestinian source and an Associated Press dispatch both state that it fell a couple of days later, on 27-28 April, along with al-Khayriyya and Kafr 'Ana. In either case, it was one of the villages targeted during Operation Chametz. The History of the Haganah states that Saqiya and neighboring villages were all taken “without a fight”. No mention is made of their residents.

The settlement of Or Yehuda was established in village lands in 1950 to settle Jews from Irak and North Africa. Ramat Pinqas was built in 1952 on land belonging to the neighboring village of al-Khayriyya.

No more than ten houses remain. Some are inhabited by Jewish families, one is used as a workshop for car repair, and others are deserted. One of the occupied houses has a large front door and a garret with a slanted roof extending along the short. A second hosue is quite long and has a large number of wondows of various sizes. A third is a two-storey house whose second floor is fronted by a facade decorated with wide lancet arches. In addition to the houses, there are truncated walls, the mud-brich foundation of a destroyed building, and other debris on the site. There are also cactuses and sycamore, cypress, Christ's-thorn, and palm trees. Part of the surrounding land is cultivated; the rest is covered by settlement buildings.

Lost In Translation

"Soulcaster" is the third solo record by Brooklyn-based composer/performer Joanna Mattrey. Following Live in Accord and various Notice Recordings-curated performances in the Hudson Valley, this album is a further development in our years-long friendship. With "Soulcaster", Mattrey scrapes, scratches, and wails on viola, prepared viola, and a tromba marina, built by Webb Crawford. Mattrey’s love of unique and unusual sounds has inspired her to alter the pure tone of the viola through preparations with styrofoam, plastic toys, chains, and other objects. But the newest sounds in her arsenal come from the tromba marina, which has one primary playing string and thirteen sympathetic strings. Rather than gently coaxing out the harmonics, as the historical playing style suggests, Mattrey employs a raucous and roaring approach.

The title, "Soulcaster", is borrowed from Brandon Sanderson’s book series, "The Stormlight Archive". In the fantasy series, a soulcaster is an instrument that transforms one object or life form into another. Mattrey’s practice connects heavily to the idea of transformation. She uses preparations and objects not only to create new sounds from her instruments, but to embrace the unknown. No matter how many times the same object has been used, depending on the vibrations on a given day, the preparations might bring out totally different sounds. This randomness creates a joyful challenge for Mattrey, who believes that especially during improvisation, music has its own life that activates and guides the sound forward. Mattrey surrenders to this energetic line of sound over the eleven tracks featured on this tape.

https://soundcloud.com/holysimilaun is an Italian musician and sound designer based in Treviso, Italy.
Its work sonically portrays a constant feeling of powerlessness, focusing on heavy cinematics, minimal-inspired compositions, physical modelling synthesis and non-linear time manipulations, bringing its unique perspective on internal-external human meltdowns.
After its Aphex Twin-approved debut album “En To Pan” and the sophomore album “Ansatz”, Holy Similaun returns, in collaboration with Archipel, with “Arcaskathel” and “Radicor al flort, espert on’ill il erb, aor Raetia”.

Q:"What was a crucial sound experience in your life?"
A:"Definitely noisy (I mean, loud and noise music) gigs with super loud sound systems. In particular, Emptyset in Udine in 2017 and Talpah in Venice last year. 
Also, the gigs organized by the Quarto Mondo and Dirtmor crew in Treviso were one of my main inspirations in sound. 
Currently, I'm more focused on producing experimental than club-driven music, but back in the day, the opportunity to hear heavy bass music with such a massive sound system was an immense gift for my artistic growth."

"Škvar" is a sound installation composed by Manja Ristić & Mark Vernon, as a part of the site-specific installation "Invoking shipbuilding in Korčula" created and realized by the visual artist Matea Šabić Sabljić aka @_argo_nauta_

The installation will be presented on the 6th and 7th of December, next to the Antifascist memorial by architect Bernardo Bernardi which was built at the exact place of an old shipyard.

Sound work is an extension of an art action: "Taking the tool in your hands is an act of honesty", which took place in September and engaged wider community. The participatory action involved people bringing hammers and nailing the names of old Korčula's shipbuilders into the planks of abandoned boats. Doing so produced the noise — sound of an old shipyard that was gone decades ago.

This public action became a silver lining of the sound work "Škvar".

Matea continued to collect hammers in Korčula, Dubrovnik, Split, Betina and Zagreb. Collected hammers will be installed as a site-specific installation accompanied by the sound work. Collecting hammers is continuing as a work in progress for the sake of "Invoking shipbuilding in Korčula" hoping to initiate a Museum which will protect both history and the future of local shipbuilding.

Exhibition is curated by Sonja Leboš ( @uiii.aiir ) and co-organised by @kap_korcula

Zaziv muzeju i korčulanskoj brodogradnji

Korčulanski škveri i majstorske radionice svjedoče slavnu korčulansku brodograditeljsku prošlost. Glas o kvaliteti njihovog rada je bio nadaleko poznat. Korčulanske obitelji brodograditelja sagradile su na tisuće brodova. 
Međutim, rad, znanje i vještina koji su bili dio svakodnevice otoka kroz stoljeća, pa sve do kraja prošlog tisućljeća, izgubili su se. Nestale su radionice, pa škverovi. Pa i majstori.
Zazivamo sve te davne meštre i meštrice,
Zazivamo sve buduće meštre i meštrice,
Da uzmu alat u ruke i krenu graditi!
Želimo “uškvariti” značaj korčulanskih škvarova. Kolektivna memorija izgradnje tisuća brodova je zapisana u rukama. Treba se prisjetiti. Zakucati brokvu po brokvu. Dasku po dasku. Brod po brod.
Značaj korčulanske brodogradnje uokviriti, “uškvariti” muzejom, oko kojeg će se stvarati novi brodovi i novi meštri.
Meštar po meštar.
Meštrica po meštrica.
