We took a much needed break on the way to the next project in Marseille. This gave us a chance to chew over a few ideas with one of our close musical allies, and to think about the future.
Meeting with Responge friend Anselm Caminada, and Theres Jörger
Leaving too soon, but we’ll be back in Switzerland for Christmas and New Year.

Mobile Radio presented a Sonic Art Container at the Profile Intermedia Conference. Together with Simon Lucas and Xentos ‘Fray’ Bentos we gave 31 two-minute-long sound and image performances in the form of personality ‘readings’, which were documented as unique DVDs for each participant.
Wired for sound in our space – a chilly metal sea container.
Working hard on creating 31 individualized DVDs.

Sarah was the ‘recycler’ for the Polish-German art radio project Radio_Copernicus which broadcast in Berlin throughout November on 95.2 MHz. This involved making 12 one hour radio shows in two weeks. Crazy.
This is the staircase at the University of the Arts in Berlin, where we recorded a version of Alvin Lucier’s ‘I am sitting in a room’. We called it ‘Recyling a Radio Station’ and it was broadcast on Radio Copernicus on 20th November 2005 at 4pm Central European time.

Participation in the start-up meeting of the EU-funded radio.territories project in Budapest. Then we took part in the Sonic Tags project organized by Tilos Radio, where we built radio transmitters and placed them around the city to form a microradio sound walk. For our transmission we used electrical sounds recorded on a tour of the Hungarian Electronic Museum. We also made a sound installation inside the AKKU building.
Here are the thorny bushes outside the new transformer station where our transmitter was situated overnight.

This is where we were living up until the 18th September 2005 when we set off on our big adventure. We were glad to leave the big city life, or at least exchange it for places new. From this point on we are living an itinerant existence, moving from project to project and friend to friend.
