S AM FM: INFRASTRUCTURAL EDDIES

11 AM–4 PM

An intervention by Radio Otherwise

As part of the project «S AM FM», S AM and Soundcamp are inviting three fellows from the LINA program to perform interventions during the radio broadcast.
Radio Otherwise will set up a temporary outdoor radio studio on the Insola floating platform at Rummelsburg Bay in Berlin, with the intention of tuning in to the plurality of waves in the area – electromagnetic and watery. Attentive to reception in consonance with transmission, the durational work will adapt over time as various antennas, microphones, receivers and detectors are tested, built up and integrated into the platform’s infrastructure live on air. Attuning to electromagnetic systems, some inherent to the environment at different scales, others incited by their many radio gadgets, they will receive~and~transmit to Soundcamp at the S AM Swiss Architecture Museum in Basel, who will also be able to remotely feed into their haphazard and eddying radio infrastructure/s. The work will be streamed online and, for the final hour, transmitted on FM in Berlin and Potsdam.  

About Radio Otherwise:
Together with a wide network of radio enthusiasts, Kate Donovan, Monaí de Paula Antunes, Niko de Paula Lefort, and M.K. explore the plurality of experiences involved in radio-making in connection to ecological thinking. Radio Otherwise is an ongoing artistic research project motivated by the many knots which art, knowledge-making/-sharing and communication encounter.

Where: Insola Floating Platform, Rummelsburger Bay, Berlin, and the S AM Swiss Architecture Museum, Basel
The performance will be on air at archipel.community and soundcamp.radio ; from 15:00 – 16:00 also on 88.4 FM in Berlin and 90.7 FM in Potsdam.

S AM FM is a project curated by Soundcamp and developed with the support of LINA, the European architecture platform co-funded by Creative Europe
