DeepTimeRadio Script (Links coming soon!)

Into Nature is a biennale art route laid out in the ancient Drenthe landscape. In 2023 the biennale will be in the Borger-Odoorn area with the theme Time Horizons. The event will consist of 15 outdoor artworks experienced on foot, bicycle, or vehicle. Cutler’s two-part sound work, DeepTimeRadio will be available on site via QR code. Listeners will be encouraged to sit, take in the atmosphere, and press play. Part One is located at The Drouwenerzand which is the first geological monument of Drenthe due to the large salt-domes that lie underneath the area – a result from the last ice age. This area is connected to folk tales and local histories. Part Two is located at LOFAR, the largest radio telescope operating at the lowest frequencies that can be observed from Earth and where the origin of the universe is studied. LOFAR is located within its own nature reserve. DeepTimeRadio is inspired by these specific locations, including their ecosystems, and other characteristics such as the megalithic burial mounds.

Research Trip to Borger-Odoorn area

A research trip to the Borger-Odoorn area (September 23 to October 3, 2022) allowed for an immersion into the landscape and an exploration of potential sites for the sound work. These images offer a glimpse into the area’s history, geology, and botany.
