*1- Lars Holdhus/TCF: <https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/sonia-312-lars-holdhustcf>“Observing something is very underrated”* Link: https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/sonia-312-lars-holdhustcf The work of the sound artist Lars Holdhus, aka TCF, interrogates our relation to the technological infrastructures that permeate contemporaneity through language, code, cryptography and, most recently, ecology. En este podcast, Lars aboga por la presencia y la conciencia. Between tea sips, he reflects on toolmaking and impact, A.I. and the obsession with flesh, human time and machine time. He also points out how boring technology becomes when you are 70% Buddhist, while introducing us to his latest projects: a virtual touring software teasing the limits of the live music industry and a random processing tool that he feeds and confronts to compose and create images. <https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/sonia-312-lars-holdhustcf> *2- OBJECTHOOD #7 <https://rwm.macba.cat/en/specials/objecthood-7>: Everything is an ecosystem, at the end of the day.” (Dave Phillips)* https://rwm.macba.cat/en/specials/objecthood-7 This new episode of Roc Jiménez de Cisneros' OBJECTHOOD <https://rwm.macba.cat/en/buscador/radio/serie/objecthood-9471> series features conversations with Diego Falconi, Rick Dolphijn, Dave Phillips, and music by Kali Malone. A spiral-shaped trip about fire, burning, ashes, rituals, cooking, food, and jungles. Though it is also about everything that lies in between and beneath each and every one of those things. The invisible micropolitics of food in the military; the symbolic charge of ashes, solid remains of an intangible object – fire – which has shaped this planet for millions of years; the untold gender-related motifs behind the Aimara genocide; a circular, cyclical perception of time; or the role and relevance of ecosystems, even beyond the good old wildlife cliché – because, you know, “everything is an ecosystem, at the end of the day”. *3- Joana Moll: <https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/sonia-313-joana-moll> “When the only thing we can think about for solving such a critical moment is another app, there is clearly a huge crisis of imagination – where we just think there is a technological solution to anything and that has to be the way."* Link: https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/sonia-313-joana-moll Through a combination of artistic research, detective work, and an almost forensic approach to our own data trail, Joana Moll’s work exposes some of the most pressing issues of our data-driven, data-centric existence. Her research projects, talks, workshops and art pieces slip through the cracks of corporate behemoths to make sense of their polymorphic nature and reveal some of the hidden layers that shape and sustain the hypercapitalist fractal. In this podcast, we talk to Joana Moll about interfaces and their social implications, about technocolonialism, agency, surveillance, exploitation, speculation and, why not, about laughter. <https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/sonia-313-joana-moll> *4- Abu Ali-Toni Serra (only available in Spanish)* Link: https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/sonia-223-toni-serra-abu-ali The late Abu Ali-Toni Serra <https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/sonia-223-toni-serra-abu-ali> talks about trance, light, shadows, transitions, conditions of life and possibility, about seeing and concealing, about dreaming and unlearning. And about plants, of course. *5- Alma Sorderberg: “For me Flamenco and hip-hop are very similar art forms. They are from oppressed groups in society, where the different kinds of art forms meets very well.* Link: <https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/sonia-310-tatiana-heuman> https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/sonia-311-alma-soderberg Alma Söderberg is a choreographer and performer who works with music and dance. As well as exploring close listening, Alma listens to rhythm and movement, in order to inhabit polyrythm and "simultaneous difference", to quote Eric Davis by way of Alma. In this podcast, Alma tells us about the many musical influences that inspire her choreographic practice: jazz, flamenco, hip hop, and experimental and Afro-American music. She also talks about multiplicity, reduced listening and deep listening, about letting rhythm run through you, about the voice, sharing, idiorhythms, Anni Albers, weaving, learning to wait, and about playing. <https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/sonia-310-tatiana-heuman> E/N/J/O/Y <https://rwm.macba.cat/en/buscador/radio/etiquetas/most-listened-podcasts-march-2020-10511>
