Relics tell stories, take listeners on acoustic journeys or document situations. They can be poems, studio productions, field recordings or something else entirely. 53-minute mix from Paul Paulun's series Fundstück on DLF-Kultur with radiophonic miniatures by Anne Waldman, Helga Goetze, Mark E. Smith, Timothy Leary and 26 other artists.
