free103point9 Wave Farm
free103point9 welcomes Laura Hadden and Tennessee Watson to Wave Farm this spring as the 2013 season’s first Artists-in-Residence. The two were selected from a competitive international field of candidates for a two-month residency at Wave Farm in Acra. This residency marks an exciting partnership between free103point9 and The Association of Independents in Radio (AIR)’s Live Interactive program, encouraging experimentation with place-based media and the transmission spectrum in new ways.
Hadden and Watson’s project Wage/Working addresses the issues of income inequality and the concept of wage through a time-based transmission installation and a radio broadcast series on free103point9’s WGXC 90.7-FM. During their time in Greene County, these two accomplished radio producers and artists will be collecting stories and interviews with workers in Greene and Columbia counties regarding their jobs and their relationship to their work.
The stories will be edited to a length, which corresponds with the amount of time it takes each individual to earn $1, creating an inverse relationship between monetary value and time. Those who earn the least are given the most time to speak and the actual value of time can be experienced and internalized by those experiencing the installation, drawing attention to the contrast between the workers at the both ends of the range and profiling workers across the spectrum.
“We are deeply inspired by American author, historian, actor, and broadcaster Studs Terkel and imagine this project in many ways to be a modern, transmission-based adaptation of his efforts to bring the experiences of workers in conversation with one another. The content of our project draws from the oral history tradition that Terkel popularized, while simultaneously utilizing and problematizing the data-driven journalism that is popular today,” says Hadden and Watson.

From Free Speech Radio News: "Today, President Barack Obama outlined his positions on the legality of 9radio-controlled) drone strikes and targeted killing, his Administration’s aggressive prosecution of some whistleblowers and reporters, and new efforts to close the prison at Guantanamo Bay. His remarks came in a major speech that addressed his foreign policy and national security decisions at Washington DC’s National Defense University. The speech comes one day after the Administration admitted in a letter to Congress that it has killed four US citizens since the President took office in 2009, though only one—Anwar al Awlaki—was “specifically targeted.” On Capitol Hill, FSRN’s Alice Ollstein has more."

During World War II, a "Ghost Army" created fake radio broadcasts, and played sound effects and used theatre prop tanks to fool the Germans. Now, every U.S. invasion includes immediately setting up pirate radio stations. The military also develops sound weapons for use on the battlefield, and currently uses radio-controlled drones to kill targets around the world. This show looks at military applications of sound and radio, from U.S. Air Force films, military critics, sound artists, and others.

Take a break and join us for the unveiling of the Wage/Working project's jukebox-based installation, featuring stories and sounds from the working lives of residents of Greene and Columbia counties. Community members are also invited to bring their own CDs of locally produced sounds to trade for a CD that was in the original jukebox. The CDs can include any audio (music, interviews, etc.) as long as it originated in Greene or Columbia county, and will be considered for inclusion in the Wage/Working jukebox, which will be located for the next six months in the Cairo Public Library's Teen Room.
Wage/Working addresses the issues of income inequality and the concept of wage through a time-based transmission installation and radio broadcast series. During their two-month residency Hadden and Watson collected stories and interviews with workers in the Greene and Columbia counties community regarding their jobs and their relationship to their work. These stories were edited to a length, corresponding with the amount of time it takes each interviewee to earn $1, creating an inverse relationship between monetary value and time.
The Wage/Working project was created by Tennessee Watson & Laura Hadden as a part of an AIR Live Interactive Residency at free103point9 Wave Farm, and WGXC 90.7-FM in Acra, NY. Financial support was provided, in part, by the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA), which believes that a great nation deserves great art.

Doug Van Nort is an experimental musician whose work is dedicated to the creation of immersive and visceral sonic experiences, and to personal and collective creative expression through composition, free improvisation and generally electro-acoustic means of production. His instruments are custom-built systems that draw on concepts ranging from spectral re-synthesis to evolutionary processes and machine listening algorithms, while his source materials include any and all sounds discovered through attentive listening to the world.
If, Bwana was born on New Year’s Eve 1984, making music that has swung between fairly spontaneous studio constructions and more process-oriented composition.
Rambutan is the solo project of Albany NY’s Eric Hardiman, a founding member of the Albany Sonic Arts Collective who runs the Tape Drift label (www.tapedrift.com).

During his residency at Wave Farm, House will invoke the spirit of a town striking clock for the electroacoustic community created by the WGXC transmission. At regular intervals, a short musical piece will be broadcast. However, this piece will not simply count off the hours like a striking clock — rather, it will be the sonified data of online and physical phenomena within the geographic broadcast area. Data will be gathered from many sources: online content platform APIs such as Twitter, Flickr, etc, filtered geographically; macro environmental measurements including weather and astronomical phenomena; and local sensor systems placed on the grounds of Wave Farm measuring ambient acoustics, motion, electromagnetic qualities, and other conditions.

THE DARK SPECTRUM follows a series of electromagnetic (EM) spectrum mapping, interception and transmission performance structures, which the SPEKTR collective started exploring in 2004. Their new work in this series will focus on processes of encoding/decoding of the EM spectrum and natural/man made signals. SPEKTR will collectively spend time with a standard suite of tools: HF, VHF, UHF and L-band Receivers and Transmitters software defined radios, home-brew VLF receivers, and ELF probes complimented by software toolkits (COTS and custom coded) to decode, encode and visualize digital signals. Combined with image and audio recording devices and manipulation strategies, the collective will work together to develop new ideas and segments for a new performance focusing on the digital and encoded/encrypted signals domains.

Drone Home is a community action, radio broadcast and robot performance that provides a critique of the use of unmanned drones in warfare and surveillance. It offers an alternative to the centralized, unilateral decision-making paradigm currently employed in drone operation by engaging the communities served by WGXC 90.7-FM in the collaborative control of a small-scale, unmanned aerial vehicle. Radio listeners will make drawings on a web-based map of free103point9′s Wave Farm, which will serve as a flight path for the drone. The drawing coordinates will then be transmitted to the drone using packet radio from the station, and a ground crew will take long-exposure photographs of the flight to capture this path as a light painting. The sum of these actions will stand as an example of using a possibly disruptive and invasive technology for the purposes of community involvement and creative output.

During her residency Contant will further develop a performance for radio based on research about transmission during The Weimar Republic. This research was compiled in her Master’s thesis, which received The Distinguished Thesis Award from The New School’s Media Studies Department in 2012. Over 90 pages of historical, technical, and theoretical writing addresses a lacuna in media scholarship about the importance of this radio epoch. However, in its academic form, Contant realizes that her research remains limited to a small, rather specific community. A public performance and archival documentation of her proposed performance, makes Contant’s research accessible to a wider public audience.

Sebren is a multidisciplinary artist who began his career in the East Village New York arts scene in the 1980s. A prolific maker, Sebren’s visual works take form in installation, collage, painting, photography, video, and public works. His sound-based works have ties to noise and no-genre music (Menlo Park Recordings). More recently Sebren has delved deeply into the medium of radio. At Wave Farm, Sebren will engage in a research project culminating in a un-documentary about the history of radio and of transmission artists.

The Tip Of The Crest Of The Bridge consists of sixteen artist-built low-power FM transmitters. Each transmitter broadcasts a small segment of audio on loop. Together, these audio segments create an overarching sound collage and narrative story constructed from the seventy community radio stations visited by Simons in 2009 and 2010 while living in Sierra Leone, The Gambia, Argentina, Ecuador and the Canadian Arctic.
