Sonic Paleontology: From the cyclus of Imaginary Landscapes, as Cage used to call it. Ratatouille cooked from mix of different sediments: the group concert played on singing pans in the Museum of Czech Music with Petr Nikl and Luboš Fidler, the rattling pingpong installation by Slavek Kwi in Skolska 28, talking toilet in Mariánská Radčice, we listened with Martin Zet, singing metro excavator in Hradčanská station, heavy duty locomotive on the Zizkov freight railway station, steps in the Colloredo Mansfeld Palace. The image is fresh: from the artificial hill in Motol, built from the underground geological heavy duty, poisonous materials, in the age they digged the tunels for Prague metro.. 50 years ago.
