[microsound-announce] PODCAST. Zepelim - Melanie Velarde

[Carlo António Ribeiro Patrão]

Hi,

This week Zepelim <http://zeppelinruc.wordpress.com/> invited the sound
artist Melanie Velarde, to create a radio piece (36:22''). Her podcast for
Radio Zepelim is a small selection of multiple cassette tape recordings
consisting of musical fragments and field recordings, taped across locations
in Berlin and Melbourne (Australia).
The second part of the show was created from an improvisation based on the
players available on Melanie's website (www.melanievelarde.com).

*"Melanie Velarde's practice comprises sound, improvisation, field
recordings, found objects, and the site specific residues of physical and
emotional environments. She uses methods that constitute an aleatorical
process across geographic, physical and emotional boarders. Her
compositional approach is informed by the participating object and sound’s
location and heritage, bringing time and place as modulating elements into
play. Interested in the spatial and semiotic properties of accidental and
found sounds, she uses field recordings and low fi recording methods to
produce sonic textures that can be experienced within a defined space
usually in form of documentation, installation and improvisation…"*
