Norient TIMEZONES 

TIMEZONES PODCAST-SERIE AUF RADIO X

Die Podcast-Reihe TIMEZONES erkundet die vielfältigen Realitäten von Künstler*innen und ihrer Praktiken weltweit und stellt die Frage: Was bedeutet es heute, in verschiedenen Ländern, Städten und Kontexten im Bereich Kultur und Kunst zu leben und zu arbeiten? Die  Reise geht von Nairobi über Rio de Janeiro  bis nach Beirut und Mount Makiling auf den Philippinen / die Ukraine und verarbeitet die Gedanken und Stimmungen der Künstler*innen, ihre sozialen, politischen und intellektuellen Realitäten und ihre(Lebens-) Philosophien zu künstlerischen Audiocollagen. 

TIMEZONES spielt dabei mit Formaten und Inhalten: der Podcast bewegt sich zwischen Journalismus und Experiment, Dokumentation, Ethnografie, Fiktion, Klangkunst oder Improvisation. Georgrafische Grenzen, Zeitzonen, Genres und Praktiken sollen überschritten und mit neuen künstlerischen Formen des Austauschs, des Zuhörens und des Erzählens experimentiert werden. Gemeinsam mit lokalen Produzent*innen und Künstler*innen entstehen dabei sehr persönliche Portraits und aktuelle Geschichten aus Städten rund um den Globus, die einen sehr subjektiven Eindruck in das weltweite und aktuelle Musik-und Kunstgeschehen ermöglichen.

TIMEZONES ist ein gemeinsames Projekt des Goethe-Instituts und Norient, dem weltweiten Redaktionsnetzwerk für zeitgenössische Musik- und Medienkulturen. 

Radio X ist neu als Partner mit an Bord: Als Weiterführung der im 2022 gestarteten Sendereihe airtime!, die künstlerischen Stimmen aus dem Globalen Süden und Osten Gehör verschafft, strahlen wir einmal im Monat eine Podcast-Folge aus.

ENG: 

The TIMEZONES podcast series plunges into the world of artists and their practices, asking: what does living and working in culture and the arts involve in different countries, cities, and contexts today? The experimental journey goes from Nairobi via Rio de Janeiro to Beirut and Mount Makiling in the Philippines/Ukraine and brings the he artists’ thoughts on their moods, their social, political, and intellectual realities and their philosophies (of life) into experimental audio collages.

The TIMEZONES podcasts run the gamut of formats and content, from straight journalism to experimental and documentary approaches, ethnography and fiction, sound art, and improvisation. The series endeavors to create new artistic forms of storytelling, listening and exchange across the boundaries of geography, time zones, genres, and practices. Together with local producers and artists, the podcast creates very personal portraits and current stories from cities around the globe, which allow a very subjective impression of the worldwide and current music and art scenes.

The Timezones Podcast Series is co-initiated and co-produced by the Goethe-Instituts and Norient, the worldwide platform and network for contemporary music and media cultures. 

Radio X is now on board as a partner: As a continuation of the series airtime!, which was launched in 2022 and which makes artistic voices from the Global South and East heard, we broadcast a podcast episode once a month.

Musicians in conversation

So heisst der Helvetiarockt Podcast, wo Natalia Anderson mit weiblichen, non-binären, trans und intersex Künstler*Innen über ihre Musik und kreativen Prozesse spricht. von Noemie Keller

21.02.06 Helvetia Rockt Podcast

...

Der Helvetiarockt Podcast ist auf Englisch! 

 

In the Helvetiarockt podcast Natalia Anderson talks with female, non-binary, trans and intersex musicians and DJ’s based in Switzerland about their music and creative processes.

"We're trying to demystify how you can get involved in music and create a space where these underrepresented groups are visual in the swiss music scene", says Natalia Anderson.

Underrepresented is the key word. Let's look at the numbers:
On stage there are only 15% women* and in music production there are even less, only 2%. So it's important to make these underrepresented groups visual and also help aspiring musicians to find their way into the music business.

"I love having these conversations, because every person hais their different story, that leads to a interesting topic..."

These stories and experiences shall help others and maybe also show them, that they're not alone with their struggles. But the podcast isn't just directed towards (aspiring) musicians, it also wants to be inspiring or allow taking a glimpse in to the music world, for people that don't call themselves musicians.

"What I hope that people will get out of it, is hearing two people who really love music, having a conversation and talking about personal experiences. I personally feel extremely lucky to have been able to have this conversations. And for me it's also extremely encouraging and motivating, I feel like I wanna start a band again! I've been saying that for the longest time, but after these conversations I'm like: Oh my gosh, I wanna make music!"
