Scrying the Landscape - Mutant Radio

Scrying the Landscape w. Elina Tapio & Hannah Pezzack. The uncanny haunts these encounters. ‘Scrying' is the act of gazing into an object to ignite the unconscious mind. It’s a psychic attunement into one’s second sight, revealing knowledge often concealed. Hannah Pezzack and Elina Tapio ascribe this ocular practice to the potentially mystical nature of Deep Listening. In the landscape, through ecologically-charged compositions, they hear sentient slime mould, oceans of language-bearing micro-plastics and cybernetic entities arriving from the future.

Scrying The Landscape w. Elina Tapio And Hannah Pezzack [02.04.2021]

The swearling mass of light that was diffusing through the mirrors gave place to a  holographic mountain, a cliff of inconceivable height, a colossal birdclaw carved in  stone and projecting over the abyss, an endless unfurling of gleam. This is what they  were seeing. Then it started spreading itself into countless shapes, almost as if it  was alive, as if it had a mind of it's own. This recording is what was echoing all over  the deserted place while they were having this vision. It felt like it was coming from a  strange white box.

We’re happy to welcome Elina Tapio and Hannah Pezzack with the new show Scrying the Landscape.
Tree roots fuse to the cracks of pavements, spores germinate. In the compost, tracing the spiral bodies of animates, Elina Tapio (@elinatapio) and Hannah Pezzack (@hanapezzack) present a love song to growth and (re)generation. Here, molecularized textures of sound sing back – splintered voices in dissonance utter forms of hallucinogenic glossolalia. The second instalment of 'Scrying the Landscape' features Turner Prize winner, Tai Shani's (@taishani) The Neon Hieroglyph (2021), a composition inspired by ergot, a fungus that grows on rye and other grains from which LSD is derived.

Scrying the Landscape III w. Elina Tapio & Hannah Pezzack
Flowing, seeping, leaking, cascading, shaping, 𝘴𝘶𝘣𝘮𝘦𝘳𝘨𝘦𝘥. Displaced from terrestrial-based ways of knowing, Elina Tapio (@elinatapio), together with Hannah Pezzack (@hanapezzack), plunges into oceanic depths. Immersed in this alien milieu, the weight and opacity of water transmogrify perception. To the human ear, noises appear muffled, foggy. But sound waves actually travel five times faster underwater than in air. Far from being a silent abyss, waterways are cacophonous: an orchestra of barnacles, sonorous wails and echoes.
The third instalment of 'Scrying the Landscape' features Markus J. Buehler (@profbuehlermit) and Jenna Sutela's (@jennasutela)𝘞𝘦𝘵-𝘰𝘯-𝘞𝘦𝘵 (2021), a sonic toolkit amplifying the emotive molecules of liquids. For 𝘈𝘯𝘢𝘵𝘰𝘮𝘺 𝘰𝘧 𝘐𝘤𝘦 (2020) Hannah Rowan (@rowanhannah) utilised a hydrophone to capture ancient air bubbles – pockets of planetary deep time – escaping from melting icebergs. And synthesist Stan Litjens' (@todaysstan) 𝘙𝘦𝘸𝘢𝘵 (2021) is an ambient interlude composed of field recordings; the lull of rocking boats and seabirds.

Scrying the Landscape IV w/ Elina Tapio & Hannah Pezzack!
For Freudian analysts, dreaming of horses is a sign of a phallic fixation – a symbol of carnal, unbridled desire. In 1973, Peter Shaffer published Equus, a play about a young man whose pathological obsession with the creatures drives him into mania: from erotic fascination to violent possession. Yet for feminist writers like Elspeth Probyn, the act of riding embodies euphoric lines of flight. Stables are distinctly feminine spaces in which women and girls form close bonds with each other, and with their equestrian companions. The fourth episode of Scrying the Landscape is inspired by a trip Elina Tapio and Hannah Pezzack took together to Oostvaarders National Park in the Netherlands. There, the wild Konik horse – descendants of the extinct Tarpan - has been introduced to roam through this fenced territory. Indebted to this re-wilding experiment, the biopolitics of species scarcity and Celtic rituals, they present a soundscape of horse music; pagan folk, experimental noise and Welsh choral singing.

First up we have Scrying the Landscape w. Elina Tapio & Hannah Pezzack
Glossolalia is the act of speaking in tongues; a spiritual encounter whereby a mysterious entity infects the body with an alien language. For the fifth iteration of Scrying the Landscape, Elina Tapio (@elinatapio) and Hannah Pezzack (@hanapezzack) take the voice as their focus, gathering songs together which activate a neural network of vocal intelligence that is non-linear and non-grammatical. Words devoid of meaning, devotional chants and spliced-up utterances, are harnessed to connect with hidden parts of the world and ourselves, to reveal that which cannot be given an identity. How do we talk about what we don’t see? How do we understand that which cannot be said? The divine is pre-alphabetic; the ineffable that is a priori to signification or the arrangement of a symbolic order. Forsaking direct linguistic capacities opens space for interpreting pressure points; temporal turbulence in phonetic structures, and the attack of vocalisation to articulate that which can not be articulated.

In the realm of De Kat Memwa series, the musical milieu has undergone a remarkable transformation since 2018. The rare beats and curious chords have evolved into a more intricate and sophisticated soundscape, intent on stimulating an array of emotions and cognitive responses, from tranquil reveries to incisive musings.

Despite these changes, one aspect remains constant: the meticulous curation of guests. Each selector invited to join the series represents a fount of inspiration, overflowing with boundless talent and expertise, all of which I deeply admire and hold in the highest esteem.

So I'm extremely happy that today we have a guest mix recorded by Frank from Berlin. A man of many guises and talents. You may know him as Frans Æmbient or A Method To Exist. In our series, unveils his latest sonic endeavour T.V.S.T. (TV IS TERRIBLE) project in which he constructs a hauntological reality with pearls from the scrapyard. 

Frank is also the visionary mastermind behind the experimental label and mix series Kashual Plastik, a cherished haven for adventurous researchers, outsiders and mavericks alike. 

Moreover, he curates the musical palette at the Arkaoda Berlin, one of the world's most daring and multidimensional venues.

Press play and embark on a safe and inspiring trip into the reality of T.V.S.T.
