*1- INTERRUPTIONS #11. Playing phenomena as a compositional material*

This mix explores how the use of aural phenomena can manifest in its many
forms to become the key element in a compositional practice. By engaging in
the use of such expanded sonic techniques the composer can act to create a
recalibration of the listeners sense of hearing and by so doing, allow for
a reconsideration of what constitutes sonic composition.

*4- PROBES #1. Curated by Chris Cutler*

*5- SON[I]A #176 (Only available in Spanish)*

*6- MEMORABILIA. COLLECTING SOUNDS WITH... Kees Tazelaar. Part I*
Straddling art and documentation, the restoration work that Kees Tazelaar
carries out is a crucial but largely unknown stage in the recovery of
historical sound material. Tazelaar describes his experiences as head of
the magnetic tape archive at the Institute of Sonology in The Hague, in
which nostalgia coexists with academic rigor.

*7-IN CRISIS #1. Reflections at a critical juncture: Perejaume, Ignasi
Aballí and Eduard Escoffet (Only available in Catalan)*

Overwhelmed by the institutionalised discourse of politics and economists,
we invite artists, philosophers, researchers and poets to share their ideas
about what is happening to us, to comment on the positive and negative
implications of this structural crisis, and to imagine an uncertain future.

*8- PROBES #3. Curated by Chris Cutler*
PROBES #3 continues to explore probes into pitch, this time through its
effective obliteration through ceaseless movement, sliding tones, and
radical portamenti which defy all quantisation.
