The Mahaki tribe gathered around the ancient stones amidst the African trees. These last few days had been a celebration of the change in the seasons, the sands had begun to blow, the dusty winds swept through the air on the breeze. They raised their hands to the skies above and began to chant, one drum banged and banged and banged. The wind grew stronger and their voices carried far and wide.

This track was recorded in Brønshøj water tower, DK, by Ditte Rønn-Poulsen and Yann Coppier, using two sets of Schoeps microphones and 6 loudspeakers placed in a huge concrete room. One set of microphones is following the humans, another one stays in the heart of the tower. After a while they collide and we all start making music together, as a trio, using analog synthesis, percussions, vocals and a waterphone. Once finished we get into the open air, 34 meters above the ground. The room is, again, waiting.

Inside An Architect's Dream

Ah, Paris. Unmistakeable, beautiful Paris. Paris: a place so unique – so authentic, so essentially itself – that it is truly irreplaceable. The eighth and final instalment in our Sound of the Cities mini-series – a sonic exploration of our urban environments and their cultural soundscapes – visits the French capital. There we meet two composers, Yann Coppier and François Bonnet, who both spend a lot of time thinking about sound and how it informs the nearly ungraspable sensations and feelings – the je ne sais quoi if you will – which makes a place seem real or not. But just how Parisian are the sounds of Paris, exactly?

LYDKUNST Podcast dykker i denne udgave ned i Efterklangen; både den helt konkrete efterklang i det nyåbnede URUM - Institut for efterklang i Brønshøj Vandtårn - som har en efterklang på op til 40 sekunder! - men også i en mere symbolsk betydning, da URUM inviterer kunstnere til at skabe værker, der på én eller anden vis arbejder med ‘det lange nu’.

URUM - Institut for efterklang er et nyt udstillingssted for lyd- og installationskunst i Brønshøjs 90 år gamle vandtårn. Den enorme søjlesal har et af landets længste efterklangstider og det er her lydkunstduoen Edition#, bestående af den franskfødte lydkunstner og komponist Yann Coppier og den islandske musiker og komponist Runar Magnusson skal lave den første lydinstallation.

Lyt med og hør Yann Coppier fra Edition# fortælle om deres mange måneders lange researcharbejde ind i at tæmme tårnets vilde akustik. Vi taler også med tårnpasser, nabo og kurator for URUM - Rune Brink Hansen - om hans overvejelser, drømme og tanker bag det nye Institut for Efterklang  - dets fortid, nutid og fremtid.

LYDKUNST podcast er produceret af Anne Neimann Clement og Rosa Marie Frang med støtte fra Statens Kunstfond og KODA Kultur for kunsten.nu.
