You start something

This is like a game

Are these melodies too corny?

I can let them in. No, my clock says it's four.

Arm and arm and arm

Now we start something

Tell me. What is it?

rrrrrrrrrrrrrrzzzz... I am radio
Louise Vind Nielsen 2020
06’20’’
Scrolling through the local radio-scape Louise listens to radio via headphones. She imitates what she hears instantly and intuitively using her voice only. Sort of melting together with her radio she acts as a living loudspeaker. “rrrrrrrrrrrrrrzzzz... I am radio” is a vocal piece giving us an insight into how we listen and perceive radio and the sounds we hear. “rrrrrrrrrrrrrrzzzz... I am radio” is a new piece produced for “Works of radio #4” and a part of Louises latest series of sound works in which she lets human beings take over the roles of machines and embody musical instruments.
Louise Vind Nielsen (*Denmark, 1984) is a Hamburg-based conceptual sound artist, visual artist and composer, working in particular with sound-performances and film. Her body of work deals with the mystery of how we listen and perceive our surroundings, as well as the interrelations between humans and machines. In a diverse artistic practise connecting elements of poetry, greek mythology, music and social engagement, Louise Vind Nielsen often examines complex themes with an obscure and humorous approach.
Louise holds a degree from the Det Jyske Kunstakademi - Diplom (MFA) from 2013 has studied at Hochschule fur Bildende Künste Hamburg (2011-2012). Her work has been shown in Scandinavia, Turkey, Lithuania and Germany and released on MAGIA (Copenhagen), TTT (Hamburg) and Research and Waves (Berlin). Her Hamburg-based project "Radikal Unsichtbar - Centre for Collective Learning and Radical Listening" aims to explore a language of listening through workshops, lectures and publications.
