Started as a weekly Radioart program produced and presented by Meira Asher.
The program explores radiophonic works of worldwide radio artists.
Radio art is a subset of Sound art where radio art is produced for the medium of radio and is specifically intended for broadcast. It opens new ways and approaches to radio making, where the audience is assumed to embrace, or even demand, a deep, intense and stimulating listening/participatory experience.

BioSignals#6 - Antye Greie aka AGF, poemproducer Mixtape
3 FEB 2020 · This entry shares a newly commissioned sound art-work 'BioSignals Mixtape' by Antye Greie aka AGF, poemproducer, as the final event related to the BioSignals programme, produced by Pixelache Helsinki during 2018-2019.
The mixtape is compiled and composed from audio materials recorded or curated during the BioSignals networked events and field-recordings.
Commissioned by Pixelache producers Andrew Gryf Paterson and Mikko Lipiäinen, the ambition of the new work by AGF as a mixtape is to hightlight the potential of making audio archives of both recordings of humans and non-human biosignals available with commons-orientated licenses, so that they can be creatively used and remixed to make new audio works that offer creativity, poetics and discursive insight in non-scientific formats.
BioSignals project is a series of site-specific events that has explored the overlaps of sound art, narrations and nature-based data streams by human and non-human cultural producers involving Pixelache members and other invited guests, that began in Spring 2018.

Jess Shane is a Canadian audio producer based in New York. Her work has aired on programs including the BBC's Short Cuts, WBEZ’s Re:Sound, and CBC’s The Doc Project, Love Me, and Ideas. She is also the co-founder of Constellations, a collective and podcast for sound art and experimental audio. Jess was a producer on CBC's Personal Best and Mic Drop. Her love of audio was born from her community arts practice, where she collaborated with communities in spaces across Toronto to design collaborative audio-visual celebrations and installations. She is currently pursuing an MFA candidate in Hunter College's Integrated Media Arts program, with a focus on collaborative documentary practices.
About ‘The Juicy Part’:
I’ve noticed a mounting and disturbing trend in ‘content’ and documentary, whereby makers contextualize their traumatic experiences in terms of traditional narrative arcs, creating suspense, climax, and resolution. In so doing, they position ‘story’ as trauma as opposed to the systems and power structures that enable such trauma to occur. This is not to say I don’t believe that retelling details of trama are not important -- but I feel that retelling them in the context of an uncontrolled broadcast environment, or in terms of entertainment platforms, is very different from recounting them to a loved one or a therapist.
On YouTube, I see this trend in abundance. It’s difficult to generalize because different users us the platform to share stories in different contexts: their words are directed towards various audiences even though they’re available to all. For this piece, I sourced segments of confessional Youtube videos in which this occurs; I often noted a disconnect between people relaying their trauma with sincerity, while also using devices of narrative structure to entice listeners to listen in closer. I am skeptical of the benefit of people commodifying their own stories in this way.
Akkamiau has performed experimental audiovisual shows since 2006. In 2012 she co-founded audiovisual interactive collective StratoFyzika, and has launched and performs live with the latest experimental techno project hiT͟Hərˈto͞o. Akkamiau hosted radio shows at Colaboradio and Cashmere radio and regularly DJs on local techno events in Berlin.
About ‘Krabat’:
It deals with human sounds, spoken language and its emotional charge, and with a subjective sound environment, in a way of internal sound ecology. It is part of her InTerjeCtions EP from 2019.
Leonie Roessler - Composer and Performer raised in Germany and the US, now based in The Hague, Netherlands. Leonie captures her environment through field recordings, which she uses for radio pieces, sound installations, and compositions for soloists and ensembles. She had recent residencies at New Media Society and Limited Access Festival (Iran), Forum Wallis (Switzerland), and The Story of Space Festival (India), and Berlin Circus Biennale (Germany), and Studio LOOS (Netherlands).
About ‘Goa Live Set’:
This piece was performed live at Helicopter, Den Haag in November of 2018. It is entirely made of field recordings that Leonie recorded in Goa in 2017 during her residency for The Story of Space Festival.
Meira Asher -The research areas of composer, performer and HR activist Meira Asher include Social Documentary and the Amplification of the Human Body.
When living in The Netherlands she was co-founder of the bodylab art foundation in The Hague (2001-2011). Currently she is a lecturer at Haifa University’s Art School, and curator-presenter of the independent Radio Art program radioart106 since 2014, affiliated with the Radia.fm network.
Her recent works include “from the Red Sea to the Dead Sea - a Soundscape of an Occupation” for KUNSTRADIO (Vienna) and a 2LP album and performance of Antonin Artaud’s radio creation “To Have Done with the Judgement of God” (1947).
About ‘One Blanket Lost’:
The trafficking of Nigerian girls for prostitution in Spain started in the early 90s, frequently involving long transits in the Algerian and Moroccan deserts. 'One blanket lost', a common expression used by the traffickers, 'mourns' the loss of blankets in which they buried girls who died on the way.
Erica was the sole surviver from the boat which carried her to Spanish waters. She lost her baby girl and boyfriend at sea, after which she started paying a 42,000 Euro debt to her madam. Mixed and mastered by Paul Kendall, Commissioned by ORF Kunstradio, Austria.

Artist: Jean Claude Jones
The free improviser and double bass player Jean-Claude Jones was born in Tunisia and lives in Jerusalem. A Music teacher, former head of the jazz department at the Jerusalem Academy of Music and Dance in the late 1990s. In 2005 Jones founded "Kadima" - a collective of free improvising musicians and visual artists, and the artistic label KCR.
In the open project Myelination, Jean-Claude Jones creates a meeting space for his fellow musicians along with the disease of multiple sclerosis from which he has been suffering since the mid 80s.
The encounter takes place via sound and it has been documented in three separate performances and albums so far. They are based on the artists' communication with the sounds of myelin - a fatty substance that isolates the nerve fibres and assists in the transfer of electrical currents between the nerve cells. Multiple sclerosis, a chronic disease of the nervous system, impacts the normal function of nerve cells by damaging and reducing myelin. Myelin protein is based on a long chain of molecules called amino acids. Jean-Claude Jones's friend, chemist Andy Shipway, programmed and slowed the vibration of each molecule in the chain to an audible frequency band. And so the sound of the myelin was born, the core of the project.
Featuring:
Harold Rubin-clarinet and voice, Stephen Hornstein-baritone saxophone,
Yoni Silver-bass clarinet, Ariel Shibolet-soprano saxophone, Yael Thai-Voice,
Hagai Fershtman-percussion, And jazz poet Jake Marmer, in the first part of the project, 2011.

The Turkish invasion of Rojava, the autonomous region in northeastern Syria, has started in October 2019. F16s are leaving to strike Rojava from the same airbase they left to strike ISIS. An attack on Rojava is an attack on the people’s right to live, their democracy, solidarity, and women’s liberation.
In March 2016, female:pressure launched the Rojava campaign aimed at raising awareness of the #Rojava resistance movement in northern Syria.
There, women partner at all levels of decision-making and were building a new society with social justice, religious freedom, ecological principles and gender equality.
This program contains a mix from the compilation prepared by female:pressure, broadcasted first on Women’s day 2016.
female pressure is an international network of female, transgender and non-binary artists in the fields of electronic music and digital arts, with more than 2.500 members from 79 countries.
All the proceeds from the Rojava campaign were/are dedicated to Rojava’s women for the construction of a women's village, called Jinwar - village of free women.
The compilation is available at Bandcamp under the name Music, Awareness & Solidarity w/ Rojava Revolution.
Anna Raimondo & Younes Baba Ali - Fearless Speech
2 OCT 2019 · > Radioart106_#117_Fearless Speech
Part of the series fearless radio curated by Anna Raimondo and Younes Baba Ali who initiated the sound and radio art platform Saout Radio in Morocco. Initial broadcast by Kunstradio ORF on 2 March 2014.
This program deals with the reality of minors in some militarised societies. From the minds of teenagers who refuse to serve in the Israeli army (in 'refuse: military.01’), to the experience of female ex-child combatants in Sierra Leone.
Challenged by Foucaoult's concept of Parrhesia, this show transmits the voices of children and youth who were appropriated/abused/killed by adults and armed forces.
'… it is a verbal activity in which the subject express his personal relation to truth taking the risk of life because he recognises that telling the truth is his own duty in order to improve or help other people. In Parrhesia the speaker uses his freedom and chooses truth instead of lie, death instead of life and security, criticism instead of flattery, duty instead of interest and selfishness…" (Michel Foucault Audio Archive. Discourse and Truth: Parrhesia, 1983).
Segments from three separate projects are complied here:
refuse: military.01 (2014, HearSay Radio Art Prize 2015),
Infantry (2002), and Face_WSLOT (2004-06).
featuring: Issa Amro, Guy Harries, Floy Krouchi, Paul Kendall, Noam Gur, Anita Jackson, Mahade Pako, Chris Conteh, Yan Keller.

Antonine Artaud - Pour en finir avec le judgement de dieu [Snippet]
9 SEP 2019 · A Radio creation by Antonin Artaud (1947)
Translated to Hebrew by Aviva Barak / Meira Asher - Voice, Electronics, Objects / Haggai Fershtman - Drums, Voice, Objects / Amir Bolzman - Electronics, Turntables, Bass / Eran Sachs - No input mixer, Voice / Boris Martzinovsky - Accordion.
'Pour en finir avec le jugement de Dieu ' is the last work by Artaud, recorded in several sessions in the broadcasting studios of the Radiodiffusion Française (RDF) in Paris in
November 22-29,1947. The general manager of the radio immediately banned it from the air on the planned evening of the broadcast February 2,1948. Artaud passed away about
a month later. In his letter of protest to Wladimir Porché, director of the Radiodiffusion, Artaud wrote:
"I wanted a new work that catches certain organic points in life, a work in which we feel the whole nervous system burning like an incandescent lamp with vibrations, consonance which invite man TO GO OUT WITH his body in pursuit of this new, strange and radiant Epiphany in the sky.
(...)
Anybody, down to the coal merchant, must understand being fed up with the filth- physical, as well as physiological -, and DESIRES an in-depth CORPORAL change."
(Paule Thévenin, Artaud, op. cit., pp. 130-132, Gallimard)

Recorded by Ronald Boersen at Hateva, Yaffa / “La question se pose de” recorded by Ronen Hajaj / Mixed by Daniel Meir / Mastered by Rashad Becker at Dubplates & Mastering, Berlin / Artwork by David Opp
