We started in 2016 with sound pieces using field recordings in podcasts for a Bucharest sound ecology: the exploration/recording/transformation/transmission of urban intimate memories. Older pieces here, do just that! Newer sound submissions though, make us want to leave the city and the documentary, get lost in illusion/fiction/drama, based just as well in field recording: forms that stimulate stories that transmit that listening state. Of course, it’s just radio, our only medium to theorize…

As a three-time freestyle wrestling champion (1989/91/93), Pavel Brăila knows that massage after a competition is essential for muscle recovery, reducing tension, and helping the body regain strength for the next challenge. Built as a fictional radio show, RADIO MASSAGE is addressing the growing interest for the alternative medicine and its representation in today's media. The piece is also…
I dove, completely at ease, into a book that promised to be like a neighborhood swimming pool, but which, breath by breath, took me on a journey around the world to the very ends of history, of exceptional bodies and minds, plunging me into the depths of the psyche and the exhilaration of the open sea. And it’s all true. I asked the swimmers in my life and discovered that they, too, carry, in the…
An improvised football field in Traian Square in Timișoara serves as the backdrop for a neighborhood portrait. The friendly tournament organized by the Casa Jacob Toffler Association in the Fabric neighborhood has, for several years in a row, brought together locals and people from other parts of the city — neighbors, artists, young and old, Nepalese immigrants, a manele singer — for a few days in…
The flow is a mental state of total immersion and maximum concentration on an activity. At that moment, action and consciousness merge, time seems to pass in a distorted way, and the level of focus reaches its peak. The piece THE FLOW speaks of regaining this state upon returning to the ski slope, even though a few years back this seemed impossible due to serious health issues. (SONIC SPORTS,…
Everyone trains—all the amateurs of this sport—for a hypothetical match, for a scenario that everyone who trains imagines. We recorded the gym—the training ground—for these amateurs who will never compete. The idea of recording sports-themed sounds dates back to when I was thinking about the sports-themed anthology „Generația de aur” (the Golden Generation). The recordings are from three different…
Manja Ristić tells the story of growing up in a sports family, with her famous water polo dad and Croatian freestyle swimming champion mom. In the overlapping narrative between two places – Belgrade and the small town of Korčula in the Southern Adriatic – the story tackles the golden times of Yugoslavian water polo, the community-built island’s club KPK, where her parents first met, and the only…
TOTAL is a sound work about the cultural, social and personal relevance of sports, now and in the past. School practice, competitions, tournaments and social phenomena, all come out of a subjective memory as a rapid succession of sequences in which sport remains the central element. TOTAL starts as a pluri-vocal confession about childhood memories that haunt one's relationship with sport. It…
vers pervers by BORȘ, May 2025 / Where did the cows come from? / This track/thing/piece opens a conversation with the 1946 famine in Moldova—a catastrophe often remembered in fragmented, contradictory ways. Some recall it as a famine caused by drought, others as a deliberate act of ethnic cleansing by the ussr. The narrative shifts depending on who you ask, but what remains is the silencing,…
THE FROGS OF VESUVIUS… as if the earth itself sang. Author: Sillyconductor, 2025. Last year, with the generous support of SEMI SILENT, Liminaria, and Tramandars, I spent nearly two weeks in residence exploring the landscapes surrounding Mount Vesuvius. I had been fascinated by volcanoes ever since I first visited Stromboli - Terra di Dio - a divine, destructive force, dominating the other Aeolian…
