About this episode
This episode presents a musical composition commemorating the Israeli army's attack on Lebanon on August 11, 1982. Rather than treating this event as a closed historical episode, the piece reimagines it as an atemporal wound—one that reverberates across time, refusing to remain confined to the past. By weaving together archival audio from 1982 and field recordings captured in Gaza across different years, the composition blurs the boundaries between then and now. It suggests that the violence of that day is not simply remembered, but continually relived, echoing through subsequent bombardments and shaping the present as much as it haunts it. The inclusion of recent recordings from multiple attacks in Gaza reinforces this temporal collapse, making the listener acutely aware that history does not move forward in a straight line, but rather folds back on itself in recurrent cycles of destruction and grief.
