why we love this
An assemblage of radio transmissions as poetry. Before we can decipher the speech of boxy voices from a distance, music masks its meaning. The incidental sounds of broadcasting become atmosphere.
about the cassette
Curiosity for its own sake: this is at the heart of Lia Kohl’s work, which finds meaning where others might find none.
Lia Kohl invites us to time travel. Collecting sounds from multiple moments – a truck backing up, blaring a persistent, repetitive C, layers perfectly on a man whistling on the radio – she orchestrates a chamber music of layered experiences, like a map of time made of fruit roll-ups. Kohl revels in the coincidences she finds, making one now into many and back into one.
The cassette is designed and hand printed by Sonnenzimmer (Nadine Nakanishi and Nick Butcher) in Chicago and includes a blue balloon printed with track titles.
