Generosity

Generosity at Kunsthaus Graz - Live Event

As their contribution to Generosity, at the invitation of Neil Cummings and Marysia Lewandowska, Eileen Simpson and Ben White hosted an evening of free music in the living room of Broadcasting House.

They invited visitors to browse, listen, select, tag and burn music from the archive and offered CD gifts featuring tracks from the archive, each one individully tagged.

Eileen played a selection of original blues, jazz and folk recordings from the archive and Ben performed a live electronic remix of the original recordings. The remix will be broadcast on Radio Helsinki who are resident in Broadcasting House, transmitting from the house and interspersing their schedule with programmes engaging with the politics of Generosity.

Open Music Archive were invited to compose a Generosity jingle for the programmes made entirely from music from the archive to introduce the Generosity programmes.

This project was part of Protections curated by Adam Budak and Christine Peters
