Ioannina Field Report
We’ve spent several days around Ioannina along with members from Medea Electronique collective, Afroditi Panayotakou, and Doros Polydorou, gathering data and considering the specifics of a new multimedia work pivoting on Ioannina Lake and the surrounding landscape. Our exploration activities ranged from radio-walks to 360º photo/videography, stereoscopy, underwater audio/video recordings, interviews, and other. Most specifically, I was involved in producing the following:
‘Radioscape’ audio recordings (app. 1h30m), as bellow:
- Air traffic control & Cross-communication
- Radio noises, tones, static, radar emissions, etc in various bands
- VHF Amateur radio activity – voice (2m band)
- SW Amateur radio activity – voice (10m band)
- SW Amateur radio activity – Morse/RTTY (15/10m band)
- Amateur radio activity – Digital modes (6m/VHF bands)
- Non-decoded modulated digital signals (FT8, RTTY, etc) in various bands
- SW Broadcast programs in various bands (in French, Arab, Turkish, English other and from various countries: including Quaran preaching/analysis, news reports, etc)
- Cross-modulated‘reflections’ of overlaid FM broadcast stations in much higher frequency bands (~200Mhz)
- Utility Service Communication (ambulance?)
‘Hydroscape’ audio recordings (app. 45m), as bellow:
- Underwater ‘atmospheres’, that is the underwater ‘background’ sound of the lake
- Underwater audio activity such as boat engines fading in/out, birds, etc
