Speak to me
Zine, Edition Error 2020
In the mid-1970s, a radio amplifier came from Italy to the region between France, Switzerland and southern Germany. His*her electronic veins fed the voices of opponents of nuclear power, protesting farmers and striking workers. In 1980 he/she moved to the Republic of Free Wendland. After the evacuation of the occupied anti-nuclear camp, a photographer takes the wounded 'radio thing'. Years later, the activist lies under a glass case in the Berlin Museum of Technology: Now scarred and fallen silent.
Speak to me conjures up his*her story(s) and dreams for the future. Little by little, other marginalized radio stories are coming into the now as well.
A dented part of a resistant radio station and unforgotten voices from the airwaves that reached you where no one else could: technology also spins the stuff myths are made of! Semifictional essays and talks.
The zine was published to accompanying the work Transistorsargverstärker:in (Transistor Coffin Amplifier).
