Sonic Gathering Place Melbourne Jail: Creating peaceful spaces in the midst of city chaosOn this Radiothon show we explore the beginnings of the show Communication Mixdown with John Langer, and the ambience of cities with Jordan Lacey. And we encourage listeners to donate to keep community strong and keep 3CR on air for another year. Communication Mixdown? What's that?John Langer, the person who started Communication Mixdown in 2016, tells Judith about how the name came about and the themes the show has covered over the years, from terms like 'fake news' which emerged at the beginning of the Trump era, to how climate change has been communicated to the public and the increase in surveillance-the digital panopticon. While communication is a huge topic, the show comes together around the idea of communication within power relationships-asking questions like who gets to speak?, who doesn't?, the importance of community languages...and lots more! How does a city makes you feel?Jordan Lacey chats with Judith about what he means by the ambience of a city, how we experience the city "from the position of our own sensing body", and how sound artists in Australia and internationally have worked to create peaceful spaces in the middle of busy cities, not necesarily to hide city sounds, but to transform them. And what about Community Radio Stations? How do they contribute to the ambience of a city? Well, sounds coming out of car windows in Fitzroy...or sounds emerging from a boat on a river in Berlin, just for starters. You can check out Jordan's paper Cities are made from more than buildings and roads. They are made from ambiances-how a city makes you feel here
The Grapevine is back for 2022! For their first show of the year, Kulja and Dylan get on the line with author and journalist Elle Hardy to discuss her new book Beyond Belief - How Pentacostal Christianity is taking over the World which is out now via Newsouth Books. Hardy exposes the Pentecostal agenda: not just saving souls but transforming societies and controlling politics.Then, research fellow from RMIT's school of design, Jordan Lacey, calls in to talk about The Sonic Gathering Space a sound design installation in the CBD set up to work out how people's moods are changed by a city's ambience. You can sit amongst plants taken from four of Victoria's national parks and listen to the ambient sounds of those parks.And Aleasha McCallion from the Monash Sustainable Development Institute, gets on the horn to discuss the pollution created by the pandemic that her article in The Conversation explores, Have you stopped using reusable fabric masks? Here's how to cut down waste without compromising your health.
“Noise is everywhere. We live with it, inside and outside our homes. It defines contemporary urban life, the world over”. That's research fellow in Architecture and Design at RMIT University, Jordan Lacey. He's a specialist in the ways that city soundscapes function as communication and can be used to promote community health and wellbeing. This week on CMD, Jordan talks about his work on 'sonic identities' and what's been called the urban 'soundmark' (like a landmark but related to sound).
