Dat had meerdere aanleidingen; de eerste was het megalomane 4 uur durende oerhoorspel ‘Grindpad naar las Palmas’ dat live voor de VPRO radio werd opgevoerd en door de toenmalige Worm-crew werd gemaakt -en naar meer smaakte. Het tweede was een zak geld die ons toegegooid werd door het onvolprezen (toen nog wel) Mondriaan fonds. Ten derde; het samengaan met het Centrum (contactorgaan?) voor Electronische Muziek dat Worm, behalve een electronische studio ook de aanwezigheid van radioman Armeno Alberts bracht die het programma (oook VPRO) ‘Cafe Sonore’ maakte. Daar werden voortaan de radiostukken gespeeld. Besloten werd een 5tal hoorspelen per jaar te maken, soms geproduceerd door een Worm-crew, altijd gemaakt met gasten of op speciale uitnodiging. Zeer basaal concept was; maak een radiostuk waarbij text, inhoud en geluidscompositie een gelijk aandeel hebben. Waarbij krakende deuren, mensen die op grindpaden lopen en trappen bestijgen uit den boze waren. De reeks loopt nog steeds en werd door de jaren heen ook nog zo nu en dan uitgebracht als Worm-uitgave, eerste als CD, later op cassette met speciale verpakkingen en in kleine oplages. Bij deze podcast serie een eerste, arbitraire greep met stukken uit verschillende periodes. EN: In 2005 WORM began 'Horspil’, an experimental radio art series. It came about for several reasons; the first was the megalomaniac 4 hour-long primal radio play 'Grindpad naar las Palmas', made by the then-WORM crew and performed live for VPRO radio. The second came about thanks to a bag of money thrown at us by the (then still unsurpassed) Mondriaan fund. The third was initiated by the merger with the Center for Electronic Music that WORM, which brought with it both an electronic studio, and the presence of radio operator Armeno Alberts; who made the programme (also VPRO) 'Cafe Sonore'. From then on the radio pieces were played there. It was then decided to make about 5 radio plays a year, sometimes produced by a WORM crew, always with guests or by special commission. The basic concept was; make a radio piece in which text, content and sound composition have an equal share. Where creaking doors, people walking on gravel paths and climbing stairs were out of the question. The series is still running and has also been released every now and then as a WORM product, first as a CD, later on cassette with special packaging and in small editions. This podcast series is a first, arbitrary selection with pieces from different periods.http://worm.orgyesserialPoppenvlees (Dutch), 2007Poppenvlees (Dutch), 2007A radio version of a piece by Geerlings, which was previously performed on the boards as a mime, dance, or  theatre. It¹s a monologue by an expensive sort of sex-toy (not a blow-up-doll we concluded!) called Alphie. Alphie messes up a relationship, and doesn¹t come out unscathed.

With mostly mechanical music, from the French instrument builder/musician/composer, Pierre Bastien. Bastien is also known for his work for the Rephlex label, and Geerlings is known because he is an inspired Rotterdams theatre writer, who¹s worked in the past with Paul De Jong (The Books).

I am a doctor of Science and after Oxford, I got involved in an intensive study discovering structural tendencies within micro-organisms, for which I had to travel into the outer orbits of our solar system. Light-years away from anything familiar. An accident happened, I was sent back to Earth and now I am blind.”

The music of Blatnova summons a magical biotope in which 1950s optimism, functionalism, UFO’s, and 1960s design, scifi and ecology peacefully coexist. This is a complete recipe, alchemical cookery. During the listening experience you see that in the boxes of your music installation there’s a little door. You step through it and you end up in a new cosmos.
