About “S.22”

Genre: Electroacoustic music, 2026, Duration: 15 min

Airing on May 23rd 07:00 CEST

Memory, grief, and resilience. S.22 approaches these concepts in a melancholic way, exploring the concept of time. It's about perceiving the world from a melancholic perspective. It's about relationships, things, and environments that are lost forever or nearly lost—with little chance of recovery, healing, or rebuilding. We also understand memory as a complex function composed of two opposing elements: remembering and forgetting. Does memory truly exist? Or is it an unconscious act of avoidance, the recollection of a traumatic event? How do we remember? Do we remember through our senses or through our bodies? Is remembering a perception of the mind or the heart? What is remembering?
