Keywords



_ making of worlds. language, science, technology : these forces produce worlds. world doesn't exist w/o language, language is an active part of the world

  • The poetic of relations (Eduard Glissant)
  • Entanglement (Karen Barad)

_ entanglement assumes that we have different things that are being knotted together _ state of being knotted together Denise Ferreira Da Silva: introduces "implicancies" things be co-response-able for each other starting point is particles

  • Response-ability (Barad + Haraway)
  • Implicancies (Denise Ferreira Da Silva)

_ The term "implicancies" brings together: entanglement, response-ability & relations. That is why this SI is called Radio Implicancies

  • Techno-epistomologies:

_ Technological knowledge systems [metadata etc how algorithms produce data]

  • Techno-ontology: How social media puts a filter on the world. We know a lot about bodies through scanning technologie. In line with that: algorithms are part of the world, while structuring the world. So when it is claimed to work on "fair AI" or "fair algorithms", algorithms are placed outside the worlding forces.

Sketch a musical composition



  • Each of the 2 system login sounds slowed down as a starter

Legend Radio with Louisa



Louisa and I created a musical dialogue between Microsoft and Mac operating sound systems. In order to create this soundtrack, we first used Musiclab, a Google song maker allowing to make simple songs with visual patterns. In a second step, we tryed to remake our song with Earsketch, a sound editor working with Python language. By refering to Musicalab visual pattern, we could quiet easily understand how to reconstruct our track in Python. Some screenshots bellow will eventually even show so visual links between the two things!

Streching audio space/time perception (with sample interpolation, overlap, looping and echoing)

With Sonic Pi and as part of the team with Naami and Jacopro, I am working on time perception, by looping, overlapping and sketching a single track more and more untils it becomes a single constant note.
For what I am doing I could take as a reference this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mjnAE5go9dI&list=LLfu-Fy4NjlpiIYJyE447UDA&index=27&t=2743s "the recordings consist of tape loops that gradually deteriorated each time they passed the tape head, the unexpected result of Basinski's attempt to transfer his earlier recordings to digital format."

Here it is more about a media deterioration than streching the audio space perception, but the process is pretty much the same, so I found relevant to keep this in mind.

Broadcast 3

Personal track description

For my sound piece I worked on a 20 seconds looped sample of the track called Beat Box (Diversion One) from Art of Noise (1984) that I recorded some years ago and more recently transformed to 1 Beat per second. With the help of SonicPI, I am questioning how musical or/and sound echo, overlap and reverberation can affect the listener's mental perception of the space where the music/sounds are being played.

Nami/Pongie/Martin Description

0916653+1005344+1007629 In a system dominated by measures, demanding an ever increasing synchronization between individuals and their environments, we propose "Spacing in Time" as a way to escape per-determined variables. Through these audio experiments, we encounter a new moment of experiencing different time flows. The radio turns into a time's perception box where various tools for time measurement and orientation are being de-fragmented and re-boot. While creating audio environments with sound repetitions, reverbs and echoes, the experiments lead to a sense of physicality which allows the full immersion into a broadcasted, time travelling. Shut down the clocks and de-synchronize yourself from the established recognition of time, while un-practicing your common perceptions.

Notes



Diffraction vs Reflection - Karen Barad (2016)





  • Indeed, the quantum understanding of diffraction troubles the very notion of dicho-tomy – cutting into two – as a singular

act of absolute differentiation, fracturing this from that, now from then.

  • As such, there is no moving beyond, no leaving the ‘old’ behind. There is no absolute boundary between here-now and there-then. There is nothing that is new; there is nothing that is not new.6 Matter itself is diffracted, dispersed, threaded through with materializing and sedimented effects of iterative reconfigurings of spacetimemattering, traces of what might yet (have) happen(ed).



  • Diffraction is not a singular event that happens in space and time; rather, it is a dynamism that is integral to spacetimemattering. Diffractions are untimely. Time is out of joint; it is diffracted, broken apart in different directions, noncontemporaneous with itself. Each moment is an infinite multiplicity.



  • Many of us still hold on to the concept of difference not as a tool of creativity to question multiple forms of repression and dominance, but as a tool of segregation, to exert power on the basis of racial and sexual essences. The apartheid type of difference. [ . . . ] [But] [d]ifference as understood in many feminist and non-Western contexts [ . . . ] is not opposed to sameness, nor synonymous with separateness. [ . . . ] There are differences as well as similarities within the concept of difference.” (8 Trinh T. Minh-ha, ‘Not You/Like You: Post- Colonial Women and the Interlocking Question of Identity and Difference’, Inscriptions, special issues)



  • Identity, thus understood, supposes that a clear dividing line can be made between I and not-I, he and she; between depth and surface, or vertical and horizontal identity; between us here and them over there.10 (10 Trinh T. Minh-ha, ‘Not You/Like You’.)



  • Divide and conquer has for centuries been his creed, his formula of success. But a different terrain of consciousness has been explored for some time now, a terrain in which clear cut divisions and dualistic oppositions such as science vs. subjectivity, masculine vs. feminine, may serve as departure points for analytical purpose but are no longer satisfactory if not entirely untenable to the critical mind.11



  • There is no sharp boundary separating the light from the darkness: light appears within the darkness within the light within . . .



  • Darkness can be produced by ‘adding new light’ to existing light – ‘to that which it has already received’. Darkness is not mere absence, but rather an abundance. Indeed, darkness is not light’s expelledother, for it haunts its own interior. Diffraction queers binaries and calls out for a rethinking of the notions of identity and difference.



  • Diffraction does not produce ‘the same’ displaced, as reflection and refraction do. Diffraction is a mapping of interference, not of replication, reflection, or reproduction. A diffraction pattern does not map where differences appear, but rather maps where the effects of difference appear.19 (Donna Haraway, ‘The Promises of Monsters: A Regenerative Politics for Inappropriate/d Others’, in Cultural Studies, eds Lawrence Grossberg, Cary Nelson, Paula A. Treichler (New York: Routledge, 1992), p.300.)



  • There is something compelling about being both male and female, about having an entry into both worlds. Contrary to some psychiatric tenets, half and halfs are not suffering from confusion of sexual identity, or even from a confusion of gender. What we are suffering from is an absolute despot duality that says we are able to be only one or the other.24(24 Gloria Anzaldu´ a, Borderlands, p.19)



  • Bohr suggested a (proto)performative approach to the so-called ‘wave-particle duality problem’ – rethinking mattering – what it means to matter, what matter means – in a rethinking of the nature of difference. Bohr understood difference in its materiality. Meaning is not an ideality; meaning is material. And matter isn’t what exists separately from meaning. Mattering is a matter of what comes to matter and what doesn’t. Difference isn’t given. It isn’t fixed. Subject and object, wave and particle, position and momentum do not exist outside of specific intra-actions that enact cuts that make separations – not absolute separations, but only contingent separations – within phenomena.



  • The self is itself a multiplicity, a superposition of beings, becomings, here and there’s, now and then’s. Superpositions, not oppositions.



  • Difference is not some universal concept for all places and times, but is itself a multiplicity within/of itself. Difference itself is diffracted. Diffraction is a matter of differences at every scale, or rather in the making and remaking of scale (spacetimematterings). Each bit of matter, each moment of time, each position in space is a multiplicity, a superposition/entanglement of (seemingly) disparate parts.



  • [N]ot only that we live in many worlds at the same time, but also that these worlds are, in fact, all in the same place – the place each one of

us is here and now.40(40 Trinh T. Minh-ha, Elsewhere, Within Here, p.56.)

  • Quantum physics radically queers the classical physics understanding of diffraction. Differences within (dark within light within dark . . . ) move to a deeper level of meaning-mattering (differentiating-entangling). (‘Move to’ means without ever leaving classical understandings behind; rather they are always already threaded through.) From ‘breaking apart’ to ‘cutting together-apart,’ from ‘light within dark within light’ to ‘agential separability’.41



  • Quantum physics radically queers the classical physics understanding of diffraction. Differences within (dark within light within dark . . . ) move to a deeper level of meaning-mattering (differentiating-entangling). (‘Move to’ means without ever leaving classical understandings behind; rather they are always already threaded through.) From ‘breaking apart’ to ‘cutting together-apart,’ from ‘light within dark within light’ to ‘agential separability’.41((41 A key concept of agential realism. See chapter 7 of Meeting the Universe Halfway for some of its political implications (even though it may look to some like a chapter on physics as a pure discipline, rather than a hybridity that is and has been always

already political).

  • The existence of indeterminacies does not mean that there are no facts, no histories, no bleeding – on the contrary, indeterminacies are constitutive of the very materiality of being, and some of us live our with pain, pleasure, and also political courage . . .



  • There is no absolute outside; the outside is always already inside. In/determinacy is an always already opening up-to-come. In/determinacy is

the surprise, the interruption, by the stranger (within) re-turning unannounced.

  • A borderland is a vague and undetermined place created by the emotional residue of an unnatural boundary.



  • But since this paper is in effect performing a diffraction experiment of diffraction, it’s important that any ‘I’ that might have seemed to give a sense of narration be interrupted, since this positioning is counter to diffracting. There is no ‘I’ that exists outside of the diffraction pattern, observing it, telling its story.



  • The past is not present. ‘Past’ and ‘future’ are iteratively reconfigured and enfolded through the world’s ongoing intra-activity. [ . . . ] Phenomena are not located in space and time; rather, phenomena are material entanglements enfolded and threaded through the spacetimemattering of the universe . [Barad]69(69 Karen Barad, ‘Quantum Entanglements’,p.261.)



  • What if we were to recognize that differentiating is a material act that is not about radical separation, but on the contrary, about making connections and commitments? [Barad]79((79 Karen Barad, ‘Quantum Entanglements’,

p.266.)
