Blablabor's "Ungefähre 78 Modulationen"

The Swiss group Blablabor (Reto Friedmann and Annette Schmucki) sound out the different qualities of radio receivers with the radio play "ungefähre" (approximate). "Each radio reproduces the aired information due to its own specific sound quality, thus the "ungefähre“ never sounds the same, but is always also a result of being rendered by differently sounding radios. Blablabor layout their live radio show like conducting an orchestra, in a way, announcing the next radio receiver to be highlighted, and thus introducing the issues (and philosophical notions) of accuracy, approximation, or relativity as well as tranformation and volatility to the compositional process." They are performing this tonight at the Museum for Applied Arts in Vienna.
