As part of their exhibition Soundscape Røst 2010– 2020 at Lydgalleriet, Elin Már Øyen Vister broadcasts a special edition of Radio Hopes and Dreams from three different venues in Bergen and online.
Radio Hopes and Dreams broadcasts a 5 day extensive programme revolving around climate change, ecological grief, biodiversity, and social and environmental justice in collaboration with Bergen Kunsthall and Jiennagoahti. The programme pays attention to the rapid changes in sonic environments and 'silencing' of the world as a result of loss of global biodiversity caused by climate change, habitat pressure and pollution, fuelled and invented by a seemingly never-ending greed of extractive imperialism and neo liberal capitalism.
Guests include Hildegunn Guroplass Solbø and Marius Kolbenstvedt (CAN - Concerned Artists Norway), Amber Ablett and Vikram Kolmannskog, Magdaléna Manderlová, Margrethe Kolstad Brekke, Inish Hedén Næss and Isak Bradley, Karen Werner and Sabine Popp, Christine Cynn, Simon Gripenberg, Michal Kindernay, Tomáš Šenkyřík, VUMA, Jana Winderen, Maja S. K. Ratkje, Margrethe Iren Pettersen, Pluriversal and Axel Wieder.
RHAD Soundscape Røst Edition is live broadcast between 14.00– 18.00hrs each day from three different locations where the audience is invited to listen in person or online. RHAD also commissioned Francisco López to curate a digital compilation album titled 'Aural Twilight' on the themes of dawn and dusk. The album is launched online Saturday September 11th September and can be heard each day between 08.00–10.00hrs and 18.00–20.00hrs.
Supported by KORO, Arts Council Norway, Lydgalleriet and Bergen Kunsthall.
