MUTEK Dialogues

Created for Marjorie Van Halteren's Electro Acoustic Poetical Society's podcast last year based on the theme "You can't go home". Recorded in September or October, I believe, with fresh memories and field recordings from Bulgaria the summer before. Listening today after many months it seems rather an omen or foreshadowing of terrible event beginning late February. Based on the stem recording of a local Gypsy woman in Bulgaria singing an incantation, tapping and chanting out a spell against drought or prayer to God for relief from the drought, I layer my voice over this with musings on the meaning of home, the theme of searching for one's homeland, relating this to the Romany disapora, adding the voice of Dr. Ian Hancock about the Romany "never being one people in one place at one time" but also being an Asian people that never lived in Asia, an Asian people living in the West, seeking to fit it, to find themselves at home, even while being in the nationalist sense, "stateless". This track will be soon available on an album called The Perfect Storm, which gathers together my works for poetry, voice and soundscapes from 2020-2022.

On this edition of Free City Radio, artist Cassie Thornton speaks on "The Hologram - Feminist, Peer-to-Peer Health for a Post-Pandemic Future," a recent book published through the Vagabonds series at Pluto Press. Also Cassie speaks about the social practice surrounding the alternative care model project that is embodied by the Hologram initiative, which developed first from encounters through care models implemented at social solidarity clinics in Greece during the financial crisis and were replicated in a creative way internationally through the Hologram project that is now a global network. 

This interview was recorded at the Darling Foundry in Montreal during a residency that Cassie had at the space in June 2022. 

Music on this edition is "Who I Am" by Ari Swan, Laurie Torres and Stella Adjokê, you can listen to the track here via @popmontreal:
