Liquid Architecture’s audio archive transformed into podcast series

Australian arts collective publish their archives for free, and ask members of their community to dust off their CD-Rs, minidiscs and DAT tapes

Australian organisation Liquid Architecture have turned their 20-year audio archive into a podcast series featuring performances, lectures and conversations with artists, musicians, activists and thinkers working with sound.

Produced by Mara Schwerdtfeger, episodes are available on iTunes, Mixcloud and YouTube, and feature Suzanne Kite, Hannah Catherine Jones, Michel Chion, Douglas Kahn, Chino Amobi, Melbourne Georgian Choir, Holly Herndon, Natasha Tontey, and many others.

They are also calling out for any related materials from artists, audiences and friends, “because all archiving is a collective undertaking, and because our memories and matter aren’t always aligned”, as they step towards expanding the archive into a fully digital open-access collection. You can get in touch with them by emailing info@liquidarchitecture.org.au.
