today we're cordially inviting to join our very special eletronic teatime!

instead of earl grey with sandwiches and/or cookies we'll serve radiophonic sound art. with two productions of "elektronik teatime" from vienna.
in the first part, we'll listen to a sound piece originally performed at the paraflows festival 2012:

"The Elektronik Teatime is an informal monthly event where artists working with electronic media are freely invited to rewire and cook electronic art in the afternoon. The focus of this workshop-like atmosphere is especially held on the integration of a multitude of different forms of electronic expressions, e.g. literature. The thereby produced acousto-visual output will be presented to the indolent majority of the open public if the producers agree on its quality. The centre of an eventual focus point addresses artists that are enlightened by the topic and the meaning of the realxed teatime in our modern society of new media. This time artists where encouraged to deal with the idea of 'Bruchstücke' ('fragments') […]
The current recording took place during the paraflow-festival on 23rd of September 2012. Starting with some preparation around 6 pm, many people joined the session and included sound, texts, voice, streamings, and visuals or cakes, analoge and digital. It lasted till 11 pm. Besides the concept of withdrawing performance-pressure from the artists, its main goal is some kind of trial-and-error of many different locations and acoustic surroundings, including out-door and no electricity, temporary used spaces or stages. This time the location, which is temporarily used by the Weißes Haus is a former school at Argentinierstraße. The building is a typical Gründerzeit-House built at the beginning of the 20th century providing a school-like atmosphere for those who had gone through Viennese schools and an open interesting acoustic between thick walls for those who weren't.
This time Jörg Zemmer, Peter Pichler, Anna Steiden, Caroline Profanter, Christoph Jokubonis, Christine Schörkhuber, Reinhard Dundler, Michael Zacherl, Lale Rodgarkia-Dara, Anna Frida, Andreas Stoiber and Mona Hollerweger were part of the Elektronik Teatime." [L.R-D.]

in the second part, we'll time-travel back to a summer evening in august 2012, when teatime was served as a live stream from garden to garden between Vienna and Berlin being part of our Datscha-Radio programme.
