Podcast Overview
<p>Do you like to tread on unsteady ground? Do you enjoy the view from a high-rise building, balancing over a high wire or following the allure of the unknown and uncertain? </p><p>This is a podcast as an artistic research endeavour – a piece of PodArt – that will get your head spinning, proposing artworks intertwined with conversations.</p><br><p>Following the pleasures and risks of becoming dizzy, we, artist-researcher duo Ruth Anderwald + Leonhard Grond and curator Sergio Edelsztein, have the immense pleasure of discussing dizziness with brilliant artists, writers, musicians, political scientists, philosophers, historians, mathematicians, urban planners, curators and other thinkers and creatives from Europe, North and South America, South East Asia and the Middle East. We're excited to discuss and learn something unexpected along the way as our guests talk about their ideas of dizziness, uncertainty, unpredictability and anxiety, the generative and destructive potential these states yield in our personal and social lives and environments; eventually, they propose ways of navigating dizziness individually, collectively and with our environment. When can we enjoy getting dizzy? When does it constitute a risk, and what risks are worth taking individually and as a society?</p><br><p>What is your take on dizziness, togetherness, and options for navigating states of dizziness, uncertainty and unpredictability together?

1. Exploring Dizziness
<p>"Dizziness needs a body to exist. But what a body is can be discussed. How can we recognise these embodiments and be aware of our dizziness?" María Auxiliadora Gálvez Pérez</p><p> </p><p>Looking at the world through the prism of dizziness creates a distinct perspective that allows for profound questions and observations concerning ourselves, the worlds we inhabit and their dynamics. Developing this PodArt as a co-creative artistic-research practice, we venture into different directions in the hope of learning how the dynamics of dizziness influence our being together and how to create generative ways of navigating dizziness together. Meeting us in this endeavour, we have the pleasure of conversing with a string of brilliant guests.</p><br><p>With contributions by Gloria Benedikt, Katrin Bucher-Trantow, Gabriela Carneiro da Cunha, Davide Deriu, Tim Etchells, Karoline Feyertag, Dani Gal, María Auxiliadora Gálvez Pérez, David Grubbs, Ran Holtzmann, Anna Kim, Gal Kronenberg, Philippe-Alain Michaud, Dan Novy, Alice Pechriggl, Letizia Ragaglia, Evdokia Romanova, Grace Samboh, Katja Schechtner, Basak Senova, Ben Spatz, Trevor Paglen, Angelos Varvarousis, Ilan Volkov.</p><br><p>"Fumbling & Tumbling" by Olga Neuwirth, performed by Anders Nyquist.</p><p>"Dizziness is my Name" by Ruth Anderwald + Leonhard Grond & Karoline Feyertag featuring Anders Nyquist.</p><p>"Diamonds" by Alvin Lucier, performed by Janáček Philharmonic Orchestra, New World Records.</p><p> </p><p><u>Links</u>: <a href="www.on-dizziness.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.on-dizziness.com</a></p><br><p><u>Credits</u>:</p><p>Directors: Ruth Anderwald + Leonhard Grond & Sergio Edelsztein</p><p>Assistance: Laura Brechmann</p><p>Spatial Audio Mix: Florian Grond</p><p>Recording and Vocals Support: Ethan Vincent</p><p>Production: Jeanne Drach, OH WOW Podcasts</p><p>Associate Producer: Livia Heiss</p><br><p><u>Graphic</u>:</p><p>Ruth Anderwald + Leonhard Grond</p><p> </p><p><u>Sound</u>:</p><p>002_DIKEMAN - NOBLE - SERRIES - Obscure Fluctuations - 02 The Heart Strips Bare.wav, Bare.wav612324__thehorsevalse__loopop-superbooth-mega-contest-cosmic-wanderer-beat.wav, 234241__trebblofang__dare-26_dll_file7.flac, 491405__ienba__crowd-in-panic.wav, William_S._Burroughs_-_Love_your_enemies.mp3, AMB_Traven'1Mykhai.m4a, 360773__dnlburnett__ambience-outside-building-site-with-some-traffic.wav, File Under Toner - surf ace noise.mp3, 151210__wolfrfe__istanbul-harbour-sounds-near-galata-bridge.wav, 349455__insintesi__karlheinz-2.wav, 524698__brunoauzet__algerian-open-air-market.wav,</p><p> </p><p>Zentrum Fokus Forschung, University of Applied Arts Vienna</p><p>FWF – Austrian Science Funds (FWF PEEK AR598)</p><p>Federal Ministry for Arts, Culture, the Civil Service and Sport, Austria</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

2. Dizzying Heights
<p>"Dizziness is a disturbed sense of relationship we have to space. In other words, environmental conditions can make us feel dizzy, which is very much related to the built environment and how we experience architecture and urban space." Davide Deriu</p><p> </p><p>This episode is all about keeping and losing balance in space. Keeping our bodily balance is a continuous somatic performance of which we become aware only in the event of a disturbance: the very moment we lose our bearings, stumble, or fall; that is, when the relation between the body and the surrounding world is changed in an unforeseeable and often undesirable way. What role does the (built) environment play in the ways we balance? What a joy to ponder Ben Spatz's thought on the physicality of dizziness, Davide Deriu's proposition of an "architecture of vertigo", to understand the process of somatic architect and designer Auxiliadora Galvez Perez, or to learn about Trevor Paglen's disrupted artistic space project. As we balance cautiously along our topic's high wire, we encounter Dani Gal's radio play "Vertiginous. Part I, Camilla."</p><p> </p><p>With contributions by Dan Novy, Ben Spatz, Gabriela Carneiro da Cunha, Davide Deriu, María Auxiliadora Gálvez Pérez, Katrin Bucher-Trantow, Trevor Paglen, Dani Gal.</p><p>Radio Play Speakers: David Wurawa, Alexei Korolyov, Alix Martin, Ewa Placzyńska.</p><br><p>"Vertiginous.

3. Politics of Dizziness
<p>"What does it mean to actually find oneself removed from an overbearing context, or find yourselves at a loss, or confused and dizzy and dislocated from the world that itself carries a certain order, but one that's apparently life-denying, devastating, and decimating? Dizziness can present a fruitful opening for a potentially generative togetherness and interdependence through dizziness as a rejection of the current order." Natasha Lennard</p><br><p>"Dizziness is very helpful to understand that clarity is an illusion and fake most of the time. But it needs to be searched like wisdom: Clarity is a utopia." Alice Pechriggl</p><p> </p><p>This episode starts with the radio play "Vertiginous. Part II Abdallah" by Dani Gal. This beginning leads us to deliberate on dizziness's political and sociopolitical implications. Here, the dark or "ugly face of dizziness", as Angelos Varvarousis calls it, takes shape. What havoc can dizziness create in a society? How can we shift its potential to the generative and fertile? In search of a better understanding, we time-travel to specific political turning points of the 20th century with historian Ursula Prutsch, and to different geographies, from Austria to Argentia, Brazil, the USA, Korea, and Turkey - considering the liberatory and destructive dynamics of dizziness and the dizzying systems that we enforce and those that are enforced on us. </p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>With contributions by Philippe Narval, Alice Pechriggl, Natascha Lennard, Angelos Varvarousis, Dan Novy, Basak Senova, Ursula Prutsch, Anna Kim, Evdokia Romanova, Yulia Strykovska.</p><p>Radio Play Speakers: David Wurawa, Alexei Korolyov, Alix Martin, Ewa Placzyńska.</p><br><p>"Vertiginous.
