Chinese Varsity Club takes over the airwaves for a half hour of real talk

Matt and Josh host a morning show. Music + an interview with the UBC Psychedelics Club

From the vales of Kra Land to the mountain peaks of Lotus Land, two horn players simulate the sounds of the airways that stretch in between. With cornet and pocket trumpet they create odd tunings of radio waves, the sound of angels bouncing off the stratosphere, and the noise of birds circling among the clouds. This generative performance will be streamed from Jan 16th-18th. Find the full stream for Luminiferous Noise Machine here: http://absolutevalueofnoise.ca/2017_luminiferous/index.html

LIT LIT LIT LIT is a bi-monthly literary event in Vancouver that simply invites FOUR writers and/or artists at a time to read their work to interested parties.

“Released as a ‘bonus tape’, with 75 copies riding sidecar to the “Hysteria” LP on NNA Tapes, “Drainolith Presents: Moskos Reads The Zonal Poets Vol.1? is a spoken word cassette by Drainolith’s Alex Moskos (also known for Dan’l Boone, AIDS Wolf, etc). For this sucker curation was key. Moskos went strong into his crew to cull the richest wackadoo. An excerpt of deep-fried cultural criticism by Zac Davis for example. I remember hearing stories in the early 2000’s about a spring chicken’d Zac Davis masturbating into condoms in the back of tour vans, then eating them, and that wasn’t even the deep end for his mug. But it’s all probably only 80% true or so.” Find out more here: http://www.tabsout.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/draino-large.jpg

“As Souns, Michael Red’s Coastal project was born out sub-bass frequencies he started hearing on the Sunshine Coast of British Columbia after taking up part-time residence there in 2011. The source of these frequencies is unknown and part of what appears to be a global mystery. As a whole, Coastal plays like a collection of field recordings with a few brief human interactions injected into otherwise natural, magnified sound environments. Coastal was pieced together from hours worth of recordings, selecting the most musical moments when the environment spoke the strongest and the unknown bass frequencies were the most dynamic.” Find out more here: http://notype.com/drones/cat.e/pan_092/

“Radio is pervasive, but not omnipresent. Hear the sounds of spaces impenetrable to radio waves with Autonomy, host of CiTR’s copy/paste. Layered with improvised drum machine polyrhythms and synthesis mutations, this live in-studio performance builds music from spaces that reject airborne electromagnetism.”

“…a collection of sounds I imagine whilst walking around this city at night time with my baby strapped to my body. The pieces focus on breath, pitch, frequencies, the global hum, and layered improvised vocal meanderings.”

gak returns to 24 Hours of Radio Art, celebrating the Fluxists who brought us this day but also looking at the continued toll of 2016 with composer Pauline Oliveros (1932-2016 ) and inventor Don Buchla (1937-2016) highlighting a mix of relatively modern avantgarde sounds. A small studio experiment ensues whereby the radio station is turned into its own instrument.
