Radiola Springs

This album of Hardi is a selection of pieces related to radio from 2005 until 2020. The Radiola Springs project was developed during the pandemic. It is a viola prepared with springs and a radio circuit. Hardi wanted to recreate the sound of his stolen violin, the violin immigrated to Baghdad at the beginning of the 70th from West Germany. In 2018, the violin was stolen in Gothenburg’s most trusted string repairing shops. Hardi wants to connect the spectrum of the radio frequencies to the violated viola to search for the sound of his stolen violin. Something he want to connect the sound from the Radiola Springs to his listening experience when he illegally immigrated to Europe. He searched for information by listening to radio noises.
