New sound artwork composed during a blitz session in Studio Loos (Den Haag) by Leonie Roessler and Hagai Izenberg in November 2022. A Mad Woman's Tale explores the surreal and often chaotic nature of daily life. Drawing on a range of everyday sounds, including a washing machine, a sewing instructional audio, and live radio sampling, the work invites the audience to immerse themselves in a world of familiar noises, creating their own interpretation of the piece. Leonie Roessler is a composer and performer raised in Germany and the US, now based in The Hague, Netherlands. Leonie captures her environment with field recordings, which she uses for radio pieces, sound installations, and instrumental compositions. She runs the radio branch of Studio LOOS in The Hague. Her works have been released through Musica Dispersa (Spain/UK), and Noise á Noise (Iran) and have been physically archived in the British Library. www.leonieroessler.com More info about Radio Concrete and Hagai Izenberg at: www.hagaizenberg.com

Radio Concrete #33, August 2021 on Resonance Extra Isolated Memory, Lost and Found by Alex Sesper: -- “The beginning of these recordings, were made during my residency in the Noise Agency project in May 2021. There with objects found in the streets I made some instruments and sounds, Using some ambience recordings in several 6-second tape loops. This recording consists of an improvisation of some material that I produced during the residency, most of the processes and audios were captured in a digital video camera, then transferred to several cassette tapes, and using 3 different 4-track porta studios I played these tapes, creating this improvisation and recording it again with a cell phone, and so trying once again to create a generation loss layer.” https://www.sesper.com/ https://www.instagram.com/_sesper/
