The piece deals with noise, clicks, and pure tones as material, realizing the paradigm of a "wash" in three cycles. This notion could be generalized to hint towards mechanical agitation, cleansing, swirl, particle separation, or wear by the action of a strong flow. Musical form arises from the ebb and flow of spectral qualities, densities, and intensities, across small and large time scales. The contrapuntal interaction between textures, gestures, and spatial cues tightens the musical trajectory of a material that features powerfully chaotic characteristics. Within this flow, the abstract nature of the sound gains tangibility, induced materiality that transcends hearing and has a dynamic towards involving other senses, into some clear, somehow familiar yet unknown, unnerving yet strangely soothing imaginary process.

Nachdem im ersten Teil des Podcasts ein Höressay über schwäbischen Kartoffelsalat bereits das Dreieck »Klang – Wissen – Fiktion« abgezeichnet hat, wird es in Teil 2 nun mit einem Gespräch zwischen Friedemann und Áron Birtalan weiter mit Inhalt gefüllt. Áron und Friedemann sprechen über ein Thema, das beide viel beschäftigt: World Building — insbesondere auch: Was kann »Sonic World Building« sein? Wie können wir uns eine bessere Welt (akustisch) vorstellen? 

Áron Birtalan ist Künstler:in und Musiker:in. Zu Árons Arbeit gehören angeleitete Spiele, mystische Praktiken, Musikveröffentlichungen, widerspenstiges Gedankengut und Publikationen. Áron interessiert sich für eine Arbeitsweise, die wie ein Interface funktioniert, und durch welche sich intime Beziehungen mit dem Unbekannten entwickeln können.
Áron hat am Königlichen Konservatorium in Den Haag und an der DAS Graduate School in Amsterdam studiert, und ist aktuell PhD Kandidat_in in Choreografie an der Universität der Künste in Stockholm mit dem Rechercheprojekt »Your Bones Hold the Shape of What's to Come«.

Friedemann Dupelius arbeitet mit Klang und Sprache und bezeichnet seine Profession als Sonic Author. Er studierte in Karlsruhe an der Hochschule für Musik und an der Hochschule für Gestaltung, sowie Sound Studies an der Universität in Köln.
Als Friday Dunard produziert Friedemann Dupelius genre-übergreifende elektronische Musik, die er veröffentlicht, live aufführt oder in DJ-Sets mischt. Unter dem Pseudonym Wednesday Dupont kreiert er Hörspiele, Radiostücke, Klangforschung, digitale und akustische Texte für Radio, Festivals und Internet.

After a radio essay about Swabian potato salad in the first part of the podcast has already drawn the triangle »sound – knowledge – fiction«, it is now further filled with content in part 2 with a conversation between Friedemann and Áron Birtalan. Áron and Friedemann talk about a topic that occupies both of them a lot: World Building – in particular also: what can »Sonic World Building« be? How can we imagine a better world (sonically)? 

Áron Birtalan is an artist, musician and a student of theology, whose work explores languages of pleasure and anguish between angel, creature and computer.
Working together with participants and their imagination as an artistic medium, Áron creates guided games, mystical practices, musical releases, unruly thoughts and publications. They are interested in a practice that acts as an interface through which intimate relationships with the unknowable may unfold.
They received their education at the Royal Conservatory of The Hague, the DAS Graduate School in Amsterdam and are currently a PhD candidate in Choreography at Stockholm University of the Arts with their research project ›Your Bones Hold the Shape of What's to Come‹.

Friedemann Dupelius works with sound and language and describes his profession as Sonic Author. He studied in Karlsruhe at the Hochschule für Musik and at the Hochschule für Gestaltung, as well as Sound Studies at the University in Cologne.
As Friday Dunard, Friedemann Dupelius produces cross-genre electronic music, which he releases, performs live or mixes in DJ sets. Under the pseudonym Wednesday Dupont he creates radio plays, radio pieces, sound research, digital and acoustic texts for radio, festivals and internet.

Here we go for a massive 100th edition of the Warning Mix series. To mark the end of our first "century", we decided to welcome back one of our absolute favourites. Back in the early days of Warning Mix '#6 we had S.O.N.S delivering a masterclass in Drum & Bass, still one of the absolute highlights on our SoundCloud. This time we got permission to share the live recording of his garden set at our Berlin party last summer, a three hour vinyl only journey into psychedelic music based on an out of this world selection and stunning mixing skills. We could actually end the series after this one - but don't worry, there will probably be a hundred more. Now turn on the volume, tune in to the music, drop out into the universe :-)

The Elixir of the Screen - شراب الشاشة 

A piece I made in spirit of my feelings living in this dystopian reality where we are forced to absorb the daily atrocities through our screens and bear the constant pain, sadness and feeling of hopelessness, that reminds us that greed and power prevail over humanity…?! Enough!! 
There is nothing else that makes sense than to keep resisting in any form or shape, and to have hope that truth and good do overcome! 

We will never be free until Palestine is free
