Deeper: Ignatia Nilu \\ Radio Ensemble

This week’s conversation connects across the oceans with Indonesia-based curator Ignatia Nilu, exploring ideas behind the presentation of Radio Ensemble at AND Festival. Radio Ensemble brings together UK and Indonesian sound artists and composers to perform as an ensemble across parallel time and space, broadcast in both Indonesia and the UK. The ensemble combines analogue and digital technologies to connect multiple players; musicians, sound artists, composers and programmers from the UK and Indonesia in a speculative performance. Each of the ensemble players are guided by an auditive score, composed by Gatot Danar. The piece can be experienced online, or in person this weekend alongside the Observatory Cinema.

This broadcast event will be preceded by a curatorial introduction.

This talk is part of Deeper, a series of in-depth conversations with artists presenting work elsewhere within the festival, offering a weekly moment to delve beyond the surface of the AND Festival 2021 programme. Tune in every Thursday, 7pm at andfestival.org.uk/live. Each talk will be available to listen to throughout the festival, until Sunday 11 July. And tune in every Sunday for our conversation series, Resurface.
