Myke Weiskopf define-se como um multi-instrumentalista, produtor e artitsta sonoro. Apesar de ter nascido em Chicago, IL, vive em Hollywood, CA e é a partir daí que se dedica a um passatempo que partilha com milhares de entusiastas do fenómeno radiofónico: o MW DX, isto é a busca de emissões longínquas de rádios a emitir em AM em ondas curtas e médias.

Se durante o dia as propriedades físicas da ionosfera e das próprias ondas utilizadas limitam o seu alcance a cerca de 400kms, após o anoitecer, com o desaparecimento da chamada camada E é desvendado todo um mundo de emissões, alteradas pela distância e pela modulação de amplitude das ondas e que criam um ambiente quase hipnótico. Neste Zepelim ouvimos vários excertos, gravados por Weiskopf e disponibilizados no seu blogue.

He spent every spare hour developing revolutionary new music making machines. He created sounds that musicians today deem to be way ahead of his time. There’s no denying the creative genius that Scott left us…”

Voo do Zepelim, sobre uma sala de aula. Escutámos um excerto da cassete número 8 de uma série de 11 gravações de aulas leccionadas pelo poeta Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) em Brooklyn College sob o tema Expansive Poetics. O surrealismo pelas palavras emotivas de Ginsberg:

Emissão de Zepelim inspirada na expedição pioneira do Capitão Britânico Robert Falcon Scott (1868-1912) ao Pólo Sul no ano de 1912. Robert Scott, falha a missão de se tornar o primeiro Homem a atingir o Pólo Sul, superado pela tripulação do Norueguês  Roald Amundsen que se antecipou em 35 dias.

A tripulação inglesa perde a vida na calota polar da Antárctida, enquanto tentavam voltar para a segurança da base. As condições de frio sobre-humanas e a fome, ditaram o destino da expedição Terra Nova de Scott. Os seus corpos congelados, foram encontrados 8 meses mais tarde, assim como os seus diários…

Em Abril de 2007, o americano Aaron Ximm (ou Quiet American), deslocou-se à pequena aldeia do Norte do Concelho de São Pedro do Sul, de nome Nodar. Próxima de Castro Daire e de Arouca, Nodar esconde-se num vale do Rio Paiva e tem estimulado um vasto número de artistas de dispersas áreas, a criarem diferentes abordagens na arte sonora e visual. Acolhidos por uma residência típica de xisto, a Nodar Guest Studio da Associação Cultural Binaural, os artístas são encorajados a partilhar os seus trabalhos através de performances, ensaios abertos, conversas ou exposições no local da residência dirigidas aos públicos locais.

O trabalho artístico que Quiet American desenvolveu em Nodar, baseou-se na captação das sonoridades naturais que envolvem a aldeia. Os sons da trovoada, o som do moinho a funcionar ou a voz da tia Ilda e as suas ovelhas teimosas, compondo o projecto “As paredes têm ouvidos“, um conjunto de 5 colagens sonoras temáticas: people, animals, things, water e nature.

Nesta ediçao de Zepelim musicámos a colecção “As paredes têm ouvidos” com:

Pierre Bastien – Tides [Visions of Doing, 2008]

Luciano Cilio -Della Conoscenza [Dell’universo assente, 2007] (excerto)

Matthew Robert Cooper – Miniature 3 [Miniatures, 2008]

John Luther Adams – Among Red Mountains [Red Arc/Blue Veil, 2007] (excerto)

White Rainbow –  Middle [Prism of Eternal Now, 2007]

Aidan Baker & Tim Hecker – Hymn to the Idea of Night [Fantasma Parastasie, 2008]

Greg Davis & Sebastien Roux – Eugene [Mereveilles, 2008]

Library Tapes – The Fragile Tide [A Summer Beneath The Trees, 2008]

Até ao próximo dia 14 de Dezembro, pode-se escutar no Teatro Viriato em Viseu, quatro “paisagens sonoras” de Nodar. A instalação áudio é composta por obras de Maksims Shentelevs (Letónia), Pali Meursault (França), John Grzinich (EUA/Estónia) assim como “As paredes têm ouvidos” de Aaron Ximm a quem dedicámos esta emissão do Zepelim.

“I discovered you could learn about the land, the wild
animals, the domestic animals, the pets, the kind of work people do,
the kind of songs they sing, what the local language sounds like (even
when I cannot understand it) and how people to talk to one another…
sound is a window to understanding as big as the eyes, but usually we
are so distracted looking at things that we don’t pay attention to this
other window.” – Aaron Ximm
