North By Southwest 63 – Arte Oído with Philip Jeck and Vicki Bennett on experimental music

In this week’s edition of ‘North By Southwest’, Nicolas Jackson attends experimental music and sound art festival Arte Oído, programmed by La Nota productions and held at Madrid’s CaixaForum cultural centre. There, he meets UK artists Philip Jeck and Vicki Bennett (People Like Us) who discuss their work and the meaning of the terms ‘experimental’ and ‘avant-garde’. We also hear about a 744-hour-long radio ‘boredcast’ and the virtues of ‘slow art’.
