No Soap Radio
#1 – Field of Action
April 1 – May 31, 2024
Featuring my album “Cove”: https://sawingsound.bandcamp.com/album/cove
“To kick off this season, we’re featuring eight artists engaging with the tactility of sound, and who use physical interaction as a creative process. By improvising with cardboard boxes, mining personal archives, and finding inspiration in site-specificity, the artists in “Field of Action” complicate our sonic and tactile understanding of the world.”
Artists: Stephanie Sutton, Erich Netherton, Wladimir Schall, Choi Joonyong & Devin DiSanto, Taku Unami, Steve Kado, Toby Kaufmann-Buhler
“No Soap Radio is a custom built, modular, and portable radio station designed to be installed in an art space, and either operated in person, or set to transmit automatically. Inspired by what Radio Artist Tetsuo Kogawa calls “narrowcasting”, No Soap Radio claims a part of the underutilized AM spectrum for conceptual, experimental, and radical sound art. By broadcasting to a niche audience on a format mostly abandoned by commercial stations, No Soap Radio is a form of performance art, and stands in contrast to corporate or community stations – because the goal is not to attract advertisers or provide news, entertainment, and information, but, instead, to create a venue for unexpected and experiential work in a non-traditional space.”
