21.1.2025 KOODI

In July 2021, as part of the ESSE festival in the island of Seurasaari, Helsinki, musician Lauri Hyvärinen and poet/sound artist Juha Rautio performed four one hour improvisations in various natural locations. Using small battery powered electronics, an electric guitar, a typewriter, a dictaphone, a cassette player and voice, their intention was to experiment with the impact of duration, repetition and natural environmental sounds on their performance. In addition, the duo sought to research the balance between text and sound – both conceptually (the effect of sound on text/cognition), and practically (the process of writing as a sound source, and voice as an instrument). After the fact, three fixed pieces were composed by layering different elements of the recordings using a dogmatic but intuitive approach.

Lauri Hyvärinen: electric guitar, electronics, cassette player, objects

11.6.2020 FESTIVAALI

Festivaali – Audiobook Series perustuu ajatukseen koetella äänikirjamuotoa. Käytin teoksen materiaalina julkaisematonta äänikirjaa runokokoelmastani Festivaali (Enostone 2018). Jokaisessa teossarjan osassa kuullaan koko äänikirja erilaisiksi päällekkäisiksi ääniveistoksiksi sommiteltuna. Äänen käsittelyssä on ainoastaan leikattu ja kerrostettu sekä hajautettu klippejä stereokuvassa. Julkaistu myös c-kasettina (saatavilla kysymällä).

Some sound sculptures from original audiobook. Digital album includes Bonus track (original audiobook). There is also a cassette available, please ask.

1.11.2013 KUUNTELE

From Kuuntele CD by AGF & Various (2013), Artist: AGF feat Juha Rautio. AGF music, Juha Rautio voice and poem.

”The newest one of the poems is Juha Rautio’s ”Listen” from his third collection of poems Sit down song (2010), read by the poet himself. It is also the title piece of the CD. It is Finnish word magic, experimental poetics, where the timbre and colour of words is more important than their meaning. Its structure follows a known Finnish children’s chain poem, and in the same way it is full of neologisms, words being born just now at the moment. Homophony and trifling onomatopoeia of the words strengthen the penetrating magic of the poem. Poetics of magic chant is to be found: the poet grasps the shape of a shaman, whose task is to seek the most important and deep. He is a reborn Väinämöinen. Rautio means blacksmith: the poet is also a wordsmith, who hammers sounds continuing the creating act of Sampo by Kalevala’s smith Ilmarinen. Present in this birth-giving are birds, waters and all of nature.”
