This workshop by Soundcamp is an introduction to Ecological Radio. It covers:
Open Radio Station Walkthrough
Assembling Hardware (off grid stream boxes)
Mobile Streaming Software (Locuscast and BUTT)
Listening session and radio broadcast
Over the course the afternoon at Project DIVFUSESoundcamp will introduce the workflow of our open radio studio, build streamboxes for live sound transmission, and learn about open source software options for streaming via mobile phone and laptop. At the end of the workshop we will co-create a listening session from the streams we produce. This will run as a radio broadcast relayed live to Soundcamp’s partners Wavefarm in Acra, New York.

Project DIVFUSE is presenting its third off-site event and a second one at Cafe OTO. Bringing together three artists who have exhibited or performed at Project DIVFUSE micro art space in Lower Clapton E5 since its doors first opened to the public in July 2021, this is an evening to showcase sound pieces that are sculpted with objects. It is also one of the events to celebrate the 5th anniversary of Project DIVFUSE – an independent exhibition platform in London dedicated to sound and multi-media art, run by Livia Garcia.

Reveil (2014—) is a collaborative sound and radio project that circles the Earth on live audio streams at daybreak. Starting Saturday 2nd May in London near the Greenwich Meridian, Reveil will pick up audio feeds one by one, tracking the sunrise west from microphone to microphone, following the wave of intensified sound that loops the earth at first light.
The Reveil broadcast largely avoids speech and music, gravitating to places where human and non human communities meet and soundworlds overlap. It is coordinated in London by Soundcamp and further afield across the Acoustic Commons network. Reveil has worked with 1,000 diy broadcasters and reached an estimated 200,000 listeners over 10 years via FM and netradio and an online platform.

Soundcamp (2013–) are an arts cooperative based at Stave Hill Ecological Park in Rotherhithe and Work Shop 1 in Loughborough Junction, with members in Glasgow, Berlin, Crete and The Netherlands. We are interested in diy infrastructures that can move live sounds between places and situations, and give attention to less heard human and non-human communities. Our work appears as live transmissions, workshops, sound devices and events. Soundcamp coordinate the long-form radio broadcast Reveil (2014–), and a series of sound and ecology events (soundcamps) on Dawn Chorus day each year.
Session One: 11 April 2026 Saturday 3pm Session Two: 11 April Saturday 6pm [1 place left] Session Three: 12 April Sunday 4pm [FULL]

Frequencies in Motion has been selected from Project DIVFUSE Sound Project Open Call 2026.
Images from Rob Parton
Sound artist Rob Parton (Arconic Sound) presents Frequencies in Motion, an installation exploring sound through frequency, repetition, and duration. It brings together a series of audiovisual works titled Frequency States, each centred on a distinct frequency range linked to different modes of attention: Alpha, associated with calm and reflection; Beta, linked to alert focus; and Gamma, connected to heightened attention.
Alongside the installation, the artist will present a series of improvised live performances in quadraphonic sound, responding to the same frequency material. Each unique performance will extend the fixed works through time and space, using synthesis, looping delays, drones, and spatial movement shaped in real time.
Session One : 28 March 2026 Saturday 3pm [Cancelled] Session Two : 28 March Saturday 6pm Session Three : 29 March Sunday 4pm
£10 | 8 places only per session | Please email divfuse@gmail.com for tickets

Deconstructed Radio + Channelling Shortwave has been selected from Project DIVFUSE Sound Project Open Call 2026.
Poster designed by Simon Whetham
‘I have been developing the Channelling project since 2021 in which I present a collection of mechanisms and devices salvaged from discarded and obsolete technology and reanimate them by playing amplified sound through them. This causes the motors to activate in random and unpredictable ways, which I respond to live, amplifying them using various microphones.
Channelling Airwaves was a commission for Deutschlandfunk Kultur in early 2025 which I subsequently adapted for live performance, presented at You and Me Festival, Beijing, China and Echoes without Borders for A4 Art Museum, Chengdu, China.
Also during a residency at Artists House, Pärnu, Estonia last year I developed a series called Deconstructed Radio, two of which are part of a permanent installation in the city and one was presented in Klangmanifeste, Vienna, Austria last year and will be part of a Konnekt event in Geneva, Switzerland this February, where I will create more pieces for the series.
Deconstructed Radio allows viewers to see the inside of the objects, demystifying the ‘black box’ idea of hidden inner workings.’ – Simon Whetham

For the event at Project DIVFUSE, Whetham will be presenting a number of Deconstructed Radio pieces in the space, followed by performing a new version of Channelling Airwaves.
Since 2005, Simon Whetham has developed a practice of working with sonic activity. He often uses environmental sound, employing a variety of methods and techniques to obtain unnoticed and obscured sonic phenomena. He explores ways of channelling and transforming energy, and how to salvage and repurpose obsolete consumer technology in kinetic sound works.
He performs and exhibits internationally, participating in A4 Residency Art Center (CN), Chiba City Art Triennale (JP), Som Desorganizado (PT), Klangmanifeste (AT), Noise Istanbul (TK), New Adits (AT), Simultan (RO), Sonica Festival (SI), 28.MFRU (SI), phonon~festival (CZ), NEXT Festival (SK), Fresh Winds Biennale (IS), Klub Katarakt Festival (DE), Nakanojo Biennale (JP), ACC Showcase (KR), Blurred Edges (DE), Tsonami Festival (CL), Madeiradig (PT) and Moers Festival (DE); has a large number of published works; and regularly collaborates with artists of other disciplines.
