RADIO création poétique contemporaine by Anne-James Chaton.

This show is a 28-minute mix of RADIO and poetry live on air event, conceived and produced by Anne-James Chaton.
RADIO has been a 24-hour celebration of contemporary poetry broadcast live from the Fondation Luis Vuitton in Paris on Dec. 11th and 12th, 2015.
The live programme explores all aspects of contemporary poetry in the form of debates, readings, concerts, performances, interviews, narrative films and documentaries. With contributions from poets and performers from all over the world, RADIO was not limited by borders.

The mix produced for the Radia Show includes (in order of appearance):

- Antoine Boute – Modern Poetry magazine – Horoscopes.

In his books, readings and events, Belgian artist Antoine Boute seeks out crossovers between written, sound and visual poetry, philosophy, performance and experimental music.
-
Brigitte Fontaine – Interview
 Brigitte Fontaine, born in 1939 in Morlaix in the Brittany region of France, is a singer of avant-garde music. During the course of her career she has employed numerous unusual musical styles such as melding rock and roll, folk, jazz, electronica, spoken word poetry and world rhythms. She is also a novelist, writer, actress, playwright, and poet.

Rudy Ricciotti – Studio guest on Modern Poetry magazine. 
Rudy Ricciotti, an architect and engineer, won the Grand Prix National d’Architecture (2006), the Gold Medal from the Académie d’Architecture, and is a member of the Académie des technologies. He combines creative flair with an appetite for construction.

Xavier Veilhan – Studio guest on Modern Poetry magazine. 
In a broad-ranging body of work that dates back to the mid-1980s, Xavier Veilhan crafts contemporary interpretations of the motifs of modernity and classical statuary. His Architectones series of exhibitions (2012-2014) illustrated the ongoing dialogue between art and architecture in seven modernist buildings around the world.

Gérard Pesson – Modern Poetry magazine – Gardening
. One of the most talented and popular composers of his generation, Gérard Pesson creates playful and dreamy compositions that switch tastefully between genres. His work is characterised by a pared-down sound and his incessant probing of the musical tradition. A gifted writer, he has also published a journal: Cran d’arrêt du beau temps.

Anna Holveck
 – Student of Ecole des Beaux-Arts de Lyon, is invited for School on the Air

Jaap Blonk – The Big Live Show
. Jaap Blonk is a Dutch self-taught composer, performer and poet. From his roots as an unforgettable vocal performer, he began experimenting with synthesisers and sampling his own voice around the turn of the millennium. Since 2006, he has been tweaking algorhythms to compose music, poetry and multimedia shows.

Tarwater – The Big Live Show. 
Berlin-based electronica group Tarwater was founded in the 1990s by Bernd Jestram and Ronald Lippok, two figureheads of the alternative scene in the East Berlin’s legendary Prenzlauer Berg neighbourhood.

Vladislav Delay – The Big Live Show.

Charles Pennequin – Poetry in the Home
. Widely published French poet Charles Pennequin also dabbles in drawings, videos and performance readings. In 2007, he co-founded L’Armée noire, a multi-faceted collective of artists which organises performances, readings and publications.

Pierre Hermé – On the Tip of the Tongue. 
The fourth generation in an Alsace family of bakers and pastry chefs, Pierre Hermé began his career at the age of 14 under Gaston Lenôtre. Feted in the US, France and Japan, the man who Vogue has dubbed the “Picasso of Pastry” has brought a taste of originality to pâtisserie. Unafraid to challenge pastry-making conventions, he strips his creations of unnecessary embellishment and seasons with sugar to explore new dimensions of flavour.

Jacques Villeglé – The Big Interview.

Jacques Villeglé was one of the signatories of the Nouveau Réalisme manifesto in 1960.

TO THE LIMIT OF ENDURANCE by GABI SCHAFFNER
He was a slender man of average height in his 60s, adressing the Lido with his back turned to the city. At first, there was no one around listening, eventually, later, some passer-bys stopped… just like me. He never turned around, he didn’t even cast a glance at his listeners. I had the most awful stomach cramps from having eaten something I shouldn’t, my forehead was covered in sweat from pain – but I held the recorder… just so.
TO THE LIMIT OF ENDURANCE assembles field recordings from Venice, Italy. Snippets of a gondola race, excerpts from church mass, voices and choices of the Biennale and a memorable poetry reading are combined into a collage that is dedicated to the power and beauty of languages, both spoken and lost. Dear unknown poet, thank you for your words.
Additional musical support: Trumpet improvisation by Claudio Comandini, recorded in Wedding, Berlin.
 Field recordings, editing and mix: Gabi Schaffner/raw audio recordings 2015/2016
