ON AIR - Saturday 21 December 2024 at 7:00pm (CET) - usmaradio.org ‘I want to eat the earth’

A sonic almanac from the New School of the Anthropocene

NSOTA is a radical experiment in alternative education, away from marketisation and arcane specialism towards co-sensing systems change through creative practice.

This is an ecological transmission of DIY ethics, non-hierarchical structures, radical networks, interconnected sensing through sound, text, voice, spoken word, human and more-than-human collaborative practice, patchwork group thinking, and radio art.

This episode is created for the December solstice, a time of extreme dark or light in either direction, a hunkering down in the wet earth or a baking out in the hot sun. The piece is composed by Stephen Shiell using original material from NSOTA scholars.

Scholar contributions:

Stephen Shiell - with guests Rina and Laura

A piece created as part of Camp FR’s ‘Free Radio Pyrenees’ residency, including Stephen's field studies from Mount Agnes (Stephen P McGreavy BBB-4 VLF receiver), hydrophone recordings from the River Garbet and the town pond (David Rothenburg hydrophones), field recordings of a water viaduct (Lom Geofon), a duet with a thyme bush full of pollinators and a bullroarer, exploring the vibrations of this early transmission device, a nighttime thunderstorm (Lom Usi-Pro omni-directionals).

Rina sounded the ski lift using a geophone with personal interactions, and Laura mixed found sound from a tourists camping trip or the area, with voice and synth.

Rhona Eve Clews chats symbolic teeth, mouths and lipstick dreams with artist friends, plays ukulele on Christmas eve, recalls a Fijian airport in December, and completes the solstice session with the OOO of fireworks in Montreal.

Stephen Shiell field recording of a pile of wood ants, Dartmoor

Chris de Sel ‘Cold War Autumn Regime’ - on a walk from Battersea to Blackfriars bridge, from angst about a climate crisis to a preoccupation with geopolitical power struggles. 

Sk.ye recites ‘a extract from ‘Notebook’ a work in progress, and plays a clarinet rendition of a fragment of music composed by Rahsaan Roland Kirk

Lu(Lu)Lu ‘There was beauty to their strange distortion’, a piece inspired by the shifting balance in darkness and light at this time of year

Blanc Sceol (Stephen Shiell & Hannah White) ‘We go on together’, a melancholy lament for our times born of collective and personal grief

Stephen Shiell field recording of frogs, beetles, larvae, boatman, caddis fly, plant photosynthesis from a pond Saint-Aignan in France

Clare Whistler recites her poem ’52 Accords’ from ‘Accord’ an Eco Body collective project

Michael Timmerman creates a sonic space where technics, the world of insects, birds, rain, thunder, searching and fleeing human steps and the poetry of Paul Celan interact in ways that is unlikely to provoke a unified response. The opening chord progression may be just that – a kind of hope for progress. But it is also melancholic. Unfinished. Not progressing, just fading. There is possibly also horror, dismay. The sax just repeats as if it could move on to a melody or something else uplifting. That initial note may be all we have.Simon McClelland Morris ‘Beating the Boundary’ is a sonic response to the idea of the parish boundary – a semi-fictitious territory that acted as a demarcation line for the church and head family in the parish, and a way of control and extraction from people within the boundary line

Good morning my people, Hope your night was greatly enjoyed, I pray as we are going out this morning that Eledumare will bless us with an abundant goodness Àse.  It is Otua meji corpus that revealed at oke itase ile-ife during the world ifá festival, ifá advised each and everyone of us to appease ifá with two kola nuts and hen, and ifá medicine must also be done for us, ifá said he would not allow us to be in trouble of being facing a legal case with someone or other party, ifá said we must complied with advice so that we may not be jail or put to shame over the case. Hear what the corpus said:

“Otín ni otín ejó” Obì ni obì ìmòràn Emun àìrírí ni emun àràjoòjo It cast divided for younger people of ìpàpó and elders one when the both were quarelling with each other, younger people of ìpàpò were advised to offer sacrifice so that they can conquer the elders one, also, an elders one of ìpàpò were advised too to offer sacrifice so that they can conquer younger people of ìpàpò also, two kola nuts, hen and apolukuluku leaf but it was younger people of ìpàpò that complied with sacrifice and ifá incision medicine was prepared for them, the elders of ìpàpò refused to offer the sacrifice ,not too long the case was charged to the king’s house to do judgement between the two parties, when the both parties reached king’s house they stood separately facing each other, the king asked the younger people of ìpàpò to speak out their minds followed by the elders of ìpàpò too, and each of them spoke out their minds, but it was the speech of younger people of ìpàpò that king listen to, the case favoured the young people of ìpàpò, that is how they conquered the elders one, the younger people of ìpàpò started dancing and rejoicing praising their priest, their priests were praising ifá while ifá was praising Eledumare. They started singing the song of ifá that: A day that I faced judgement with them I was victorious  A day that I faced judgement with them I conquered  A war never wage and wage off younger people of ìpàpò.  It is today I will speak out and conquered Òrúnmìlà said if it is for his own diviner, hen do never kneeling for any judgement It is the spot that apolukuluku sat on, that used to conquered the farm owner. PREPARATION OF THE IFA MEDICINE: After we have use two kola nuts and hen to appease ifá, you will cut both ankles of the hen in the sense that the joint of the ankle will be at middle, you will also cut some ankles of apolukuluku leaf too, then grind it smoothly, mark iyerosun of this corpus on ifá tray and chant this verse and pray, put iyerosun to that medicine, then mix it together and make an incision on both knees and use the medicine to rub the incisions. My people, I pray this morning that may we never experience any case, may we never be jail in life, and all problems shall be solved.
