Concept
[everything is interconnected] [implication] [responsibility] [relationality] [becoming] [interdependency] [resonance] [interference] [entanglement] [techno-ecology]
Terminology
Radio Implicancies is about practicing interdependencies. About how to stay with the complex entanglements between the personal, the economical, the political and the computational. About thinking, using and making technology with mutual relations in mind.
- agential realism
According to Barad's theory of agential realism, the universe comprises phenomena, which are "the ontological inseparability of intra-acting agencies". Intra-action, a neologism introduced by Barad, signals an important challenge to individualist metaphysics.
Key Figures
[Karen Barad] is an American feminist theorist, known particularly for their theory of agential realism. Their research topics include feminist theory, physics, twentieth-century continental philosophy, epistemology, ontology, philosophy of physics, cultural studies of science, and feminist science studies.
[Denise Ferreira Da Silva and Arjuna Neuman] our issue's title is borrowed by their film 4 Waters: Deep Implicancy is a poetical exploration of rivers, histories, volcanoes and schools of thought that flow together.[2] The “Deep implicancies” in the title of their film signals the entangled responsibilities for maintaining colonial hierarchies between what and who is considered to be of value or not. The film argues that to change this, we first of all need to displace the logics that make extraction, dispossession, and segregation work. In an e-mail conversation with Neumann, Da Silva explains that she therefore prefers the term “deep implicancies” over “entanglement” because to her, entanglement is still informed by the possibility of separation, of de-tanglement or a return to a moment before the knot was made.

Contributions
week 01 - field recording, glitch editing w/ audacity [work w/ Emma]
[about] During the creation time for our first contribution, I was self-isolating at home because of covid; and Emma was visiting her family in Belgium. Emma suggested the idea and she later mixed the recordings so we can hear the two recordings merged. It is an interesting contrast between her being at a different place every time, whereas I was being in the same space where there was not much happening.
[field recording] We did several field recordings of the time and place we were at some given moments. The field recording format was [1] introduction of time and place; and [2] recording of the sounds in the space. We also took one photo of that moment.
[photo glitching with audacity] I became interested how Audacity can be used to create glitched images. Thus, I experimented with that on the documentation photos we took using this tutorial as a base (and a few more).
