Tapedeck Diamonds

Started: Feb. 8, 2007, 8 p.m.
Ended: Feb. 8, 2007, 8 p.m.

Description

This Sprinckelink event at Foamlab in Amsterdam brings together sound collectors for a session of sharing the brightest sonic diamonds from their archives of recorded sounds of landscapes, animals and music. This results in an evening of crisp, flabby or spongy sound-snippets from collectors reacting to the presented audio files.

Some true gems come from a Russian collection of frog and fish sound-recordings accompanied on the LP by the comments of a Russian biologist. Another surprise is the recording of a hysterical power tool used in an architecture workshop, and recordings of what seems like a drugged Balkan accordionist drifting in and out of consciousness. The Tapedeck Diamonds may evolve into a series of sonic gatherings.
