Also in use are an FM transmitter which transmits the samples, a consumer FM tuner, a vintage Grundig transistor radio strapped up like a guitar, a dictaphone cassette player, and a vintage Garrard portable valve turntable. The portable radio is used as an improvisation device - I am basically tuning to various radio stations. What I get is not planned by me, it just happens to be on the air at the time. I disrupt the field of FM transmission with my body and the interference from the Grundig receiver. This is a cover of Alva Noto (Carsten Nicolai), from the album "Xerrox Vol. 1" released on raster-noton, 2007. I modified the original elements of Nicolai's composition to suit my theme, and destructed them in my own way, probably much more procedural and basic than how he originally did it. This one is considerably more noisy and less majestic ...
