Show 0798: Subespai City Cirlces (DiffusionFM 91.9)
Subespai – "City circles": sound collage on urban canvas
Scene. A nondescript hum smothers the echoes of a distant playground. The eeriness intensifies as the afternoon loses the daily battle against the evening soundscape. "Where is this?". The sonic familiarity puts the name of a place on the tip of the tongue right as the movement changes, or does it? The hum left unannounced, that's a fact; now there's something else filling the space, something deeper, more spiritual even. Repetition gives way to flow; quietness prevails, for a while at least. Feedback turns into flares as the night falls. "Is this still the West?". Continental lines may or may not have been crossed, the only way to find out is to wander further, facing novelty until everything becomes known again. A faint sadness lingers in the air. End of scene.
Composed & performed by Subespai (Mauri Edo). Recorded by Matthew Syres

Show 0607: Women Wage Peace March of Hope 2016 by Meira Asher (KolHaCampus106fm)
a Sound march
As part of the Women Wage Peace movement in Israel and Palestine, On October 19th 2016 I joined the last day of the March of Hope. We travelled from the Western Galilee to the dead sea where we met our Palestinian partners, then travelled to Jerusalem where we marched to the house of the Prime minister to conclude the march with a final assembly.
At the approach to the street of the Prime Minister’s residence a black barrier was present.
Supported by worldwide solidarity events and the participation of the Liberian peace activist Leymah Gbowee thousands of women marched throughout Israel between October the 4th and October the 19th. The march demanded from the leadership of the state to work with respect and courage towards a solution to the ongoing violent conflict, with the full participation of women in this process. Only an honorable political agreement will secure the future of our children and grandchildren.
Speakers/Singers in order of appearance:
Laymah Gbowee, Dvora Pearlman, Women of Shefa-‘Amr, Laila Najar Amouri,
Clemence Abud, Talia, Guy, Huda Abuarkoub, Hagit Lavi.
recorded, edited and produced by Meira Asher.
