Quite an unique premiere in radio history: the live-broadcast of painting... fixed on the canvas to be mistreated as microphones, piezo speakers were the sources of realtime sound ment to be transmitted on air by London radio art-station RESONANCE 104.4FM on 12th of August 2003 during "The Clear Spot". The video was taken spontanously, but the acoustics are superb [and you might want to use headphones], so please indulge the poor footage.

Playing the sound through the piezos back onto canvas, you'll recieve the rare kind of a whispering painting...

00:12Now, you're listening to The Clear Spot here on Resonance 104.4 FM, and if you've been
00:17listening for the past half-hives, you'll have a very clear idea as to what you're about
00:20to hear. It's a very special part of the program now, where we go live to our studio downstairs,
00:25where we have Marcus Heesch with his two canvases on the floor, one on the left and one on the
00:30right, and the two contact microphones are attached to the back of these canvases, and
00:34he's going to paint on top of these. The material goes down the contact mics, through some wires
00:39and to the magic boxes of Knut Alphaman, who's stationed on the other side, who's manipulating
00:44all the wonderful sounds that come deliberately or accidentally from Marcus's brush and paint.
00:49There may be some areas of near or total silence, but during those, just use your imagination
00:56to imagine this extraordinary sight of these two men downstairs at their improvisation.
01:02And when they're ready, here they come.
01:52Of course, these three men have to be similar.
