aussie sound sheila's rockin helsinki!
we just made our first media appearance for ääniradio, on the coolest net radio station ever - yo mc mute!
http://www.bassoradio.com/
hung out in the very cool studio set up in an old bed factory in kallio, waved at the webcam and talked experimental radio for 90 minutes. had a great time, surprisingly we had lots to talk about, and plenty of material to play, and invited our gracious host to come play at mbar and program a show for ääni. He does the demo program, of unsigned local acts... very street, very underground.
although it's always a little strange when people meet me and say they've been reading my web diary... I feel so exposed ;)
came home after not eating all day except for porridge this afternoon (it's been a slow day, I'm sick again, everything aches) and rustled up a meal of fish fingers, frozen peas and carrots and squeaky cheese (leipojusta -the finnish haloumi mmmmmmm)
it was almost like a balanced meal
watched too many buffed bronzed girls and boys gyrating their perfectly tanned toned midriffs on mtv for a while, sufficiently mindless to drive me back to some kind of cultural production. maybe time for some italo calvino difficult loves before bed. ,)
