radio appearance with the very dedicated john blades now online:

Background Noise recently featured a conversation with Sydney sound artist Jodi Rose. She has been for some years now recording with contact microphones the sounds of cable vibrations of cable and suspension bridges all over the world. She is very passionate and articulate about her ongoing project. Having worked as a bridge engineer I have an abiding interest in her work and my engineering background combined with my deep interest in experimental music makes her project more special than ever. She is away overseas presently on another bridge project which she explains.

For a fascinating insight into the unique and beautiful recordings and work of Jodi Rose you can listen to her on Background Noise recently by visiting: http://www.anonradio.net

and I stumbled across this lovely border project when submitting work for a unique blog art site - http://no-org.net/

This is a global call to all artists, cultural producers and activists to contribute photographs for an image blog in conjunction with the exhibition "moving..on...: Handlungen an Grenzen - Strategien zum Antirassistischen Handeln" in the Neue Gesellschaft für Bildende Kunst (NGBK), Berlin, Germany, August 2005.
 
You are called upon to use various types of digital cameras (e.g. mobile phone cams, webcams, photo and video cameras) to document signs of containment and exclusion, of discrimination by the migration and border authorities. Please send new or existing image files via e-mail to images@borderblog.net.
