Worm Radio Shows

Hosts

Session 3 | Lea

As part of the first episode of our Special Issue #28, aired on 25-09-22, I brought a cut-up text to perform together with the group. The concept follows the surrealist idea of latent news, but can also be traced to Tristan Tzaras text To Make A Dadaist Poem or the cut-up technique used by William Burroughs and Brion Gysin.

The input consisted of the principles of permacomputing and Sunjoo Lee's descriptions of her artistic research project Electric Garden, as well as the articles How to Mount a Balcony Awning by Dmitriy Kurochkin and Building a slow web by Greg Sarjeant. As I did not have enough time to cut up everything I brought, not every input text made it in to the final output. Each of us took a few snippets of text (single words or phrases) and rearranged them into longer phrases or sentences. We then went around in a circle and read them out loud.

Output

All hardware especially the internet as chips to be fed
Flexible electricity built on radio signal are the principles of permacomputing
Never stops pushing. Is an ongoing electric garden
Artistic research powered by the early internet consider carefully insects 

The best I remember showing the electric garden
The worst relational process explores the garden
Flowing and it is still making control the feed integrate coming to bathe never stops
Interaction between hope for but the feed is flourishing 

Living you don't
Simplicity, complexity and almost biological and renewable one year old
A place solid ground electricity that algae now
And your role is the garden, composting computers, and everything
