Elektronmusikstudion (EMS) <http://rwm.macba.cat/en/specials/ems-mats-lindstrom/capsula>. With Mats Lindström <http://rwm.macba.cat/en/specials/ems-mats-lindstrom/capsula> Link: http://rwm.macba.cat/en/specials/ems-mats-lindstrom/capsula <http://rwm.macba.cat/en/specials/ems-mats-lindstrom/capsula> In 1953, after attending the first Swedish Radio and Fylkingen Society electronic music concert with Pierre Henry and Pierre Schaeffer, Swedish artist Öyvind Fahlström wrote a manifesto for concrete poetry. More than a decade later, the Swedish Radio broadcasted his pioneer radio piece “Fåglar I Sverige (Birds in Sweden)”. In the decades that followed, the complexity and broad spectrum of productions coming out of the Elektronmusikstudion (EMS), founded by Karl Birger in 1964, made it a hub for artists. But while the text-sound scene was in and out of the Sound Workshop, Knut Wiggen, the first director of the EMS, channelled his energy into the futuristic dream of creating a world-class computer music studio for experts and scholars. *3- PROBES series. Curated by Chris Cutler <http://rwm.macba.cat/en/probes_tag>*Link: http://rwm.macba.cat/en/ probes_tag PROBES <http://rwm.macba.cat/en/probes_tag> takes Marshall McLuhan’s conceptual contrapositions as a starting point to analyse and expose the search for a new sonic language made urgent after the collapse of tonality in the twentieth century. The series looks at the many probes and experiments that were launched in the last century in search of new musical resources, and a new aesthetic; for ways to make music adequate to a world transformed by disorientating technologies. You can find the latest instalment of the series, exploring the impact of Indian instruments in Western Music here. <http://rwm.macba.cat/en/curatorial/probes-20-1-chris-cutler/capsula> *4- COMPOSING WITH PROCESS <http://rwm.macba.cat/en/composingwithprocess_tag> series.

Laura Mulvey <http://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/laura-mulvey/capsula>* Link: http://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/laura-mulvey/capsula Laura Mulvey contextualises, updates, and elucidates on the far-reaching impact of this key text, which she revised in later essays such as “Death 24 x a Second. Stillness and the moving image”. At the same time, she opens up the debate with the notions of the “queer gaze” and the “universal whiteness” of Hollywood. Mulvey also defends orality as a form of "history from below", citing the example of “compilation films” (films that use archival footage re-written with new narrative) as a space for a new feminist film practice. *E/N/J/O/YE/N/J/O/YE/N/J/O/Y* *+ 2 podcasts you should not miss!!* *1/ * *OBJECTHOOD #4.
