Datscha Radio at Marais Wiels et al
Two days of radio expeditions are planned, that will explore the soundscapes each in a different locations:
The Wiels marsh is a natural but accidental body of water in the heart of the urban center where nature has regained its rights after 10 years of abandonment of the site.
Datscha Radio’s second location with be in a nearby park, also with a bodies of water in the vicinity.

Workshop “Au travers du miroir”
Not just metaphorically in the air but meanwhile confirmed is a workshop about the plants of the Wiels swamp lands in cooperation with the local community center Le Brass, by Ms Schaffner. We will “oscillate’ between micro plant scapes, memory and the seismology of our drawing hands.

The Scented Lichen

With Julia Drouhin (France/Tasmania). A weird story and a weirder sound piece. Based on several failed experiments in the transposition of plant’s chemical ingredients into random melody, lost and found field recordings and the sound and scents of a waffle iron. (Lan: F) 18 min.

“La Lichen Parfumée” was broadcast as part of radia.fm’s # 760 transmission “Of seeds and lichen” (with Kate Donovan) in October 2019. Production: Verena Kuni, radio x, Frankfurt
