Thanks for listening. It is a two-hour show … On destruction: the
scuzziest, dirtiest, grindiest show yet. Be prepared. Lock the doors.

Cheers,
Mary

Topics include local soundscape recording and mapping projects such as Favorite

Medium will pause at 6 p.m. for a performance by Chicago Phonography that will last until 9 p.m. Medium will resume, continuing until 9 a.m. Friday morning. Medium is open invitation as long as you don’t disturb the drone. If you can, please some food to share.

The Chicago Phonography broadcast on Philip von Zweck’s Something Else radio program, performed live on August 3rd, 2008, has just been posted in it’s entirety on archive.org. Listen to it here:

Chicago Phonography is a loose collective of artists interested in promoting creative activity in listening by producing and broadcasting unprocessed field recordings as an ensemble in a context of live improvisation. Motivated by the maxim “nature performs and we provide the secretarial services” (R. Murray Schafer The Tuning of the World). This is a four-hour continuous performance by Chicago Phonography broadcasted live from WLUW 88.7 Independent Community Radio studios for the experimental music program Something Else hosted by Philip Von Zweck.

Performing on this evening were Todd Carter, Chad Clark, Chris Hammes, Eric Leonardson, Joshua Manchester, Patrick Scott, and Aaron Zarzutzki.
