Radioscapes, Nicolas Montgermont
AKA14 - 2017

Radioscapes is a record that invites the listener to discover the
electromagnetic landscapes that surround us.

The two sides of the vinyl propose to listen and to observe two very
different radio contexts: the Paris ring road (Side A) and an isolated
farm in the French countryside (Side B). In each location, the whole
radio spectrum was methodically recorded during a period of two weeks
and then transcribed into a single audio track. On each side, an image
representing the levels of the received frequencies is printed under the
groove in synchronization with the sound. Radioscapes is an exploration
of existing artificial and natural signals.

As the record rotates, the frequencies follow one another, as on a radio
where the button would be slowly turned: one successively travels across
Wi-Fi waves, mobile phones, hydrogen lines observed in astronomy,
satellites exchanges, military and aeronautical communications, FM and
AM radios, and thunderstorm interferences... The record is accompanied
by a silk-screened booklet that brings together a text by astrophysicist
Eric Chassefière detailing the physical properties of radio waves and
their implementation in radio astronomy and the protocol used to carry
out the recording of waves.
