1- ‘Personal Space’ by Hernán Kerlleñevich (wiener radia kollektiv, Orange 94.0).
A show by the Radia-Kollectiv-Wien presenting the project PERSONAL SPACE project by Hernán Kerlleñevich (ARG).
Besides other projects, Hernán started his project „Personal Space“ during the residency in Vienna from December 2016 until February 2017
„Personal Space is presented as an interactive sound installation in which the sound sources are human musicians, who react subjectively with acoustic instruments to the locations of the public, based on proxemic relationships.
The term ‘proxemics’ refers to the use and perception that humans have of their physical space, their personal intimacy. It describes the measurable distances between the individuals while they interact with each other, their postures and the existence or absence of physical contact.“
The first steps for realizing the project took place in Vienna at the temporary space Feldversuchfeldversuch.speis.net with the following musicians:
Mona Matbou Riahi, Valentín Pelisch, Katrin Hauk, Peter Seher, Arnold Noid Haberl, Glo Noise, Diego Mune, Tanja Brueggemann, Susanna Gartmayer and Stojan Vavti.
The final performance took place at Panal361 Art Gallery, Buenos Aires, Argentina, 21 March 2017. Performers: Cecilia Quinteros, Eliana Rosales, Violeta García and Steve DiGregorio.
This sound art experiment was created during the sonic art visiting artist residency program, which was organized by SPEISkammertag-Verein zur Förderung digitaler Kunst und Kultur in cooperation with Panal 361.
Lale Rodgarkia-Dara initiated the call for this residency in Vienna and was part of the jury together with the Radia-Kollectiv-Wien.
Radia-Kollektiv-Wien: Barbara Huber, Barbara Kaiser, Florian Bauer, Karl Schönswetter, Maria Herold.
Judged in Buenos Aires, Argentina by: Helena Ferronato, Silvana Ovsejevich and Julieta Penedo.
The residency was part of an exchange programme. In 2016 an Argentinian artist was selected to take on a residency in Vienna with the focus on Sonic/Radio-Art.
The Exchange-Call was announced in August 2015 hosted by Speisekammertag.

2- On Failure by James Goddard (Ckut Radio Montreal):

Failure of technology, Failure of language, Failure of colonialism, Failure to induce laughter…ultimately, failure to fail and many more expressions of failure, inaction and irrelevancy of success.
