Events Description
Requiem for Radio: Full Quiet Flutter (RFR: FQF) is a 60-minute live performance for human bodies, electrons, and radio waves. Architecture, technology, history, and the human body come together in this near-supernatural conjuring of the spirits of the demolished Radio Canada International (RCI) shortwave towers. Structured with thirteen movements for the thirteen radio towers, the performance follows the format of a traditional requiem, but for the RCI shortwave site that was once located near the border of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia from where it transmitted shortwave radio around the world from 1944 to 2012.
The performers on stage interact with an elaborate set of invented and modified electronic instruments that use sensors, custom circuits, and wireless technology to play the ghosts of the radio towers with radio waves.
