In this episode, the artist collective Small Audio Art founded by Phoebe McIndoe invites us to contemplate the possibilities of windows…

Interview with Phoebe McIndoe

Are you creatively stuck, a worried novice audio-maker, or just feeling a little lonely?

Don’t worry, Phoebe McIndoe feels you.

Establishing Small Audio Art—a 6-month playful, low-stakes project inviting creators to craft stories inspired by everyday objects—the Berlin-based journalist and radio maker welcomes you into her little paradise of quirkiness, randomness, and heaps of laughter. (Shhh… there’s also a listening party with party poppers after each submission round).

Next prompt: “clocks” (or any timekeeping device).

Submissions can be up to 10 minutes, in MP3 format. Photos or poems welcomed.

Jump on the bandwagon. Let your story chime in.

 

Matters of Windows by Jane Lee and Dan Semo 

In our first story, a reflective monologue on the passage of time, missed opportunities and life choices.

“We rush through life pretending we have all the time in the world, but the window is always getting smaller.”

 

Soggy Window by Martin Zaltz Austwick 

Next up, Martin makes a song out of the squeegee. 

Time to wipe your windows.

 

Lumi by Andrea Kristinsdottir

In our third story, Andrea leaves a window open -  and someone escapes.

A wholesome search for a cheeky little thing. Meow.

 

The Window by Danni Stewart 

Through our final window...

A ‘part-time’ shirtless guy. Unsolicited flowers. Her window and his window. 

“The next time I looked at the window, everything was gone.” 

“I never even spoke to him. So why do I miss him? I don't know.”

 

Thank you to Phoebe McIndoe and all of the audio artists who shared their stories.
