Will spoken language become obsolete? What if, in the future, a simple conversation between two adults becomes a rarity, like an obscure musical piece that involves months of rehearsing and vocal training to be able to perform?
Oh! That reminds me! I was very pleasantly surprised to see that a podcast that I listen to regularly did a whole episode on experimental sound art recently. If you’re following my posts (for some reason) it’s likely that you have open ears, and will enjoy this production very much. The Kate Soper interview alone is worth it, but the references to Gesualdo are a delicious bonus.
That said, give the rest of the podcast a listen - it is a bit uneven, but the episode “Two Years With Franz” is one of the most meaningful and touching things I’ve ever heard in this format.
