this edition has been produced in baltimore, maryland in the united states by jason sloan. for more information on his work see http://www.jasonsloan.com. notes from the producer:

Harbor Study

Harbor Study examines three different planes of sound throughout the Baltimore Inner Harbor area and the micro sounds unique to each location. The recordings titled “Earth”and “Water” employ the use of granular sampling. This form of sound synthesis captures small samples or “grains” of a live audio signal and splits them into tiny one- to fifty-millisecond pieces and plays them back in real time. This process acts as a sort of microscope for the ears that focuses the listener’s attention to the minutiae comprising each unique sound space. […]

the summer schedule pushes on, as we return from one road trip and begin preparing for the next. we should start preparing you, dear listeners, for our annual summer break: as usual, we will be taking the month of august off from new programming to recharge our batteries and our ears. still several shows left before that happens, though, so fear not. along with several regular editions you can look forwards to framework:afield editions produced by blanca rego and jason sloan, and our annual observance of world listening day. in the meantime you can sit back, relax, and enjoy this week’s collection of sounds.

this show constitutes something of a travel diary – on june 9th i had the privilege of traveling to hamburg, germany to experience and perform at the blurred edges festival. i took an extra few days after my own performance to see some others and meet some old friends (and make some new ones) and i came home with a nice collection of sounds (from other artists as well as my own recordings). i have built this show from a mixture of the sounds i received as gifts (some by people present, some not), other releases by people i spent time with there, or, in the case of the intro, a sound i recorded myself. there were a lot of folks involved, so this show is quite dense, but i think the density reflects the whirlwind few days spent amongst great people.

all the fives this week – that won’t happen again until the controversial edition #666 sometime in 2019, if we make it that far. a long, long list of great sounds for this edition, but we’ve got a few other things to mention first: this week is wgxc’s (broadcasting in the upper hudson valley, new york state, usa) annual pledge drive. wgxc makes amazing radio, and they are our only fm partner station in the u.s., so they really deserve your support. if you value hearing things like framework on fm(!) go and show them you care:

this edition, entitled urge along the pathways of the sky and the first of a 3-part series, has been produced in portland, oregon by matthew swiezynski, whose last name i actually know how to pronounce, as completely coincidentally we worked at a cinema together in cambridge, massachusetts in 1996. isn’t it a small world?

matthew, purveyor of the great invisible birds record label, and member of projects such as ingenting kollektiva and community of light, had this to say about this edition:

Urge Along the Pathways of the Sky; being a 57 minute sound experience, obsessively investigating Satyajit Ray’s film Pather Panchali (first in The Apu Trilogy from the year 1955) as source material, with a concentration on sound design and field recording elements from the film. Music by R. Shankar, sound recording by Bhupen Ghosh, Samir Ghosh and Durgacharan Mitra. Mixed by Matthew Swiezynski of the Ingenting Kollektiva. Includes rain, elements, birds, night sounds, trains, fuzz, drone, interrupted music, and speech fragments. Next installment will be the 2nd and 3rd in The Apu Trilogy.

a long playlist this week, and already a little late, so i’ll try to be brief. several physicals, 2 cds from yannick dauby’s kalerne label, a limited cdr version of an online release by jonáš gruska, and a very beautiful (and beautifully packaged) cd by giovanni lami (sounds recorded to, buried on, and subsequently dug up and recovered from cassette tape). also an unreleased submission by monikapich, and several more sounds from the aporee soundmaps.

this week one of our favorite radio stations – certainly our favorite station that we’re not aired on – kfjc, in los altos hill, california, broadcast a 4-hour special focusing on framework radio and my solo work as murmer. dj abacus finch played lots of sounds from framework editions releases, and also played this entire edition as part of his show. so finally, framework has been aired on kfjc! the whole thing is available for streaming from their archives, which was be found here:

http://www.kfjc.org/broadcast_archives/index2.php

look for the hours from 2-6pm on may 23rd, hosted by abacus finch, and you’ll hear us. […]

this edition of framework:afield is the first of a multi-part series produced in ireland by slavek kwi, aka artificial memory trace, entitled soundlife. for more information see http://www.artificialmemorytrace.com. notes from slavek:

ARTIFICIAL MEMORY TRACE
presents
SOUNDLIFE CHAPTER 1:
PROPAGANDA, FRAGMENTATION AND CONFUSION (IN MANY LAYERS)

Since I became a father, my immediate sound environment and its perception changed rather dramatically. Also relation to the time, before perceived as basically amorphous entity – nowadays became a moment with very definite boundaries. My week is composed from Sounday (if lucky Sounday with “s” on the end) and the other Days (always with “s”). My Soundays are increasingly more and more dense. In every sense. Sometimes I am so exhausted that I am sleeping first half of my Sounday hoping the second half-day will be dedicated to Sounds, which means: exclusively to my Sounds and in association with cherished collaborations with my fellow Soundpeople.
