Title of work: Rain Receiver?
Description of work:
In a post-apocalyptic world, natural archiving becomes a guide. Human beings follow the guidance and connected together by the natural archiving.
WORM, a place where survivors gather in the apocalyptic, the rain receiver becomes a symbolic nexus of human and natural elements within this community, where humans and nature no longer have the commodity attributes of a one-directional society, and where the emotional link becomes an important medium for constructing a sense of belonging.
Through the rain receiver, we analyze the language of nature by receiving the frequency of rain to generate sounds. As survivors touch the rainwater receiver, they become part of the ongoing narrative. The act of touching the receiver is an intimate gesture, akin to the act of giving. This interaction triggers a cascade of experiences – the sound of rain, snippets of stories, and stream-of-consciousness memories collected from the community..
Title of work: Byte Noise: Sound you see me? Sound you don't
Description of work: These 3D renditions of the Radio Worm studio contrast the empty studio with all the invisible audio data, the endless stream of radio shows, stored on Worm's hard drive. Since this is the most important space for the community of radio makers, we created this snapshot of it while thinking about the question 'What do we do with all this invisible digital data and how do we prevent it from getting "dusty"?'
Title of work: Manual for Post-Αpocalyptic Radio Making
Description of work: A manual addressing the how and the why of radio-making within a fictional post-apocalyptic framework, while it illustrates forms of audio archiving that extend beyond sound (i.e. transcripts). Besides, the manual incorporates diverse works and tools created by XPUB students that go beyond traditional radio making and archiving.
