»MAPS : Electronic Resonances Between Ecuador and Mexico«

Live Performance and Radio Play

The project »MAPS : Electronic Resonances Between Ecuador and Mexico« by Concepción Huerta and Fe Sexta revives audio archives of pioneering electronic music composers in Mexico and Ecuador, active in the 1970s.

Listen

Using archival materials and other sources, recordings and compositions are blended with a documentary and fictional narrative approach to contextualise the listening experience. The innovative legacy of these early composers is integrated into Huerta and Sexta’s own work, as they map relationships between person and collective memory.

The Radio Lab is a project by Deutschlandfunk Kultur – Hörspiel / Klangkunst and CTM Festival in collaboration with Goethe-Institut, ORF musikprotokoll im steirischen herbst, and Ö1 Kunstradio. This year it takes place within the framework of the sound art initiative tekhnē, which is co-funded by the Creative Europe programme of the European Union.
