POÈME ÉLECTRONIQUE
Poème électronique is a 30 minute podcast that tells the story of the rise of early electronic music in the Netherlands between 1950 and 1960. This history goes back further than many people know. In addition to history, there is a lot of music and sound experimentation. Extra special is that part of this history took place in an old wing of our building.
PAPI GABA'S TEST- AND MEASUREMENT ENSEMBLE
Papi Gaba's Test and Measurement Ensemble is a project by Bart van Eijden. His orchestra consists of various oscillators, frequency generators, sweep generators and pulse generators from the 1950s. With his orchestra he explores the sonic possibilities within the strict boundaries of his ensemble. Compositions by the ensemble can also be heard in the podcast.
