The Radiophonic Broadcast examines innovations in sound and music. From field recordings and fictional journeys to Foley-inspired performances and music made by fungi, get to know the artists working at the vanguard of sound. This podcast gives equal balance to speech and music. Think of it as two sides of an LP or cassette: the first side contains conversations and interviews; the second – uninterrupted compositions made by or featuring our interviewees.

Maria Sappho

The Nuyorican artist and researcher Maria Sappho specialises in multispecies collaborative projects that are at the intersection of human, machine and organic communication. Currently based in Huddersfield, Sappho is a pioneer of “trans-species listening” – a practice that incorporates instrument building and musical composition developed in collaboration with artificial intelligence and fungal ecosystems. Sappho is a recipient of the Oram Award and her work with AI and mushrooms has garnered international acclaim. In this podcast, she discusses the intricacies of improvising with mushrooms, creating new forms of collaborative space with the AI Chimere and exploring the subversive, underground and political elements that underpin her practice.

Produced by Ilia Rogatchevski for the Radiophonic Institute.
