*1- **Joana Moll: <https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/sonia-313-joana-moll> “When the only thing we can think about for solving such a critical moment is another app, there is clearly a huge crisis of imagination – where we just think there is a technological solution to anything and that has to be the way."* Link: https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/sonia-313-joana-moll <https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/sonia-313-joana-moll> <https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/sonia-313-joana-moll>Through a combination of artistic research, detective work, and an almost forensic approach to our own data trail, Joana Moll’s work exposes some of the most pressing issues of our data-driven, data-centric existence. Her research projects, talks, workshops and art pieces slip through the cracks of corporate behemoths to make sense of their polymorphic nature and reveal some of the hidden layers that shape and sustain the hypercapitalist fractal. In this podcast, we talk to Joana Moll about interfaces and their social implications, about technocolonialism, agency, surveillance, exploitation, speculation and, why not, about laughter. <https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/sonia-313-joana-moll> 2- PROBES #27. <https://rwm.macba.cat/en/research/probes-27> Curated by Chris Cutler Link: https://rwm.macba.cat/en/research/probes-27 <https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/sonia-313-joana-moll> In PROBES #27 we track the modern composer from the scrapyard to the office, then through the living living room and into the kitchen in search of new musical resources - including scrap-metal, typewriters, vacuum cleaners, dot matrix printers, industrial quantities of paper, telephones, and the humble bean. 3- Anja Kanngieser: <https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/sonia-314-anja-kanngieser> "I don't know what climate justice could exist when the reality is that Kiribati will be gone. It's undeniable. Kiribati will be gone. You think about what justice would mean. At the moment it's conversations around loss and damages. How could you ever compensate for that? An entire land gone and indigenous people displaced forever." Link: https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/sonia-314-anja-kanngieser Political geographer and sound artist Anja Kanngieser works in the coordinates between space and sound. This merging of disciplines that seems completely normal to her tends to be more perplexing to the compartmentalised world of science and academia than to the undisciplined field of artistic practice. In this podcast, we become the listeners as Anja Kanngieser reflects on expanded listening, on the inaudible, and on our anthropocentrism. They talk about their long-standing interest in sound governance and dissect the many tensions that built up in the project “Climates of Listening”, which was originally based on the intention of amplifying campaigns for self-determination and self-representation in the Pacific. *4- Lars Holdhus/TCF: <https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/sonia-312-lars-holdhustcf>“Observing something is very underrated”* Link: https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/sonia-312-lars-holdhustcf The work of the sound artist Lars Holdhus, aka TCF, interrogates our relation to the technological infrastructures that permeate contemporaneity through language, code, cryptography and, most recently, ecology. En este podcast, Lars aboga por la presencia y la conciencia. Between tea sips, he reflects on toolmaking and impact, A.I. and the obsession with flesh, human time and machine time. He also points out how boring technology becomes when you are 70% Buddhist, while introducing us to his latest projects: a virtual touring software teasing the limits of the live music industry and a random processing tool that he feeds and confronts to compose and create images. <https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/sonia-312-lars-holdhustcf> *5- Ramon Amaro: <https://rwm.macba.cat/en/extra/sonia-293-ramon-amaro-deleted-scenes> “For me Flamenco and hip-hop are very similar art forms. They are from oppressed groups in society, where the different kinds of art forms meets very well".* Link: <https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/sonia-310-tatiana-heuman> https://rwm.macba.cat/en/extra/sonia-293-ramon-amaro-deleted-scenes We dig up some unreleased fragments of our conversation with Ramon Amaro that we were unable to include the first time around. Ramon Amaro is a lecturer in the Department of Visual Cultures at Goldsmiths, London, and also in the Centre for Research Architecture. His work revolves around speculative articulations in machine learning, philosophies of being, mathematics, engineering, and black ontology.
