Radia Show 478 | Theremidi Orchestra

RADIA

Theremidi, this week Radia show comes from Ljubljana based Radio Student.
 

Theremidi is a made-up-word, a hybrid of thermin and midi controller. Theremidi Orchestra (TO) is a verb, an ongoing workshop of noise and drone production. The hands-on electro noise ensemble exists in the present continuous, but refers also to the history of electronic music.

TO has a DIY (do-it-yourself) and DIWO (do-it-with-others) approach in making music / sound experiments, making our own instruments (theremidi, micronoise, touch-tone...), based on open-source technologies. Currently, the Theremidi Orchestra consists of 9 active members, coming from different study or professional backgrounds.

Every Monday TO meets at Ljudmila = Ljubljana Digital Media Lab to practice and develop soundscapes and build DIY sound devices. The process of production involves experimentation with sound outputs, mutually composed music scores, shared responsibilities for individual parts of the process, etc.

The featured track has been recorded by Radio Student. The first 6:40 minutes is a fragment of a live performance at TRESK #5 Festival with sound artist and dancer Irena Tomaûin at Kino äiöka Cultural Centre. The rest of the track has been recorded live at Radio Student for DJ Seansa morning radio show.

Theremidi Orchestra active members are: Simon Bergo?, Tina Dolinšek, Luka Frelih, Ida Hiršenfelder, Dare Peji?, Tilen Sepi?, Saša Spa?al, Robertina Šebjani?, Dušan Zidar, Isac Petruzzi, Ian Soroka.
