Existing as a monthly radio show on RTM.FM since January 2024, Intimacy is a common ground for artists working with sound to develop work through the live performance of radio.
For the first time, Intimacy will be live for an audience with guests of the show from the year, sharing experimental sound work by performing live at TACO! live to air on RTM. Artists Rory Salter, Elliot Buchanan, Beth Robertson, Noah Berrie, and FIN, will perform live.
Intimacy is an ongoing broadcast project by Elliot Buchanan. Its live event iteration is TACO!’s final event of 2024.

Rory Salter is a musician, artist and technician living in London. He has published albums under various monikers with Index Clean, TEETH, Zoomin' Night, Alter, TakuRoku, Infant Tree, Bison and amongst others. His work is formed through experimentations with acoustic & electronic instruments, faulty & functional technologies, cassette tape, feedback and walking; motivated by exploring relationships to environment, work/labour & materials. It is rooted in practice and the forms of documentation and theory that come from that practice. He has performed and worked with Derek Baron, Ecka Mordecai, Russell Walker, Mark Peter Wright, Regan Bowering, Li Song and others.
Elliot Buchanan is a London-based artist working with sound to examine the complexities of the human experience. Utilising listening and sound-making as investigative methods, his practice explores how sonic materiality articulates social relations through spatiotemporal entanglements. Working mostly with sculptural sound installation, performance and radio he has shown work at The Swiss Church, Bomb Factory Foundation and completed a residency at Chisenhale Art Place. He curates a monthly radio show on RTM.FM entitled Intimacy which exists as a common ground for conceptual artists
Beth Robertson is a sound artist based in London and Glasgow. Her practice traverses boundaries of sound, ecology and geography in an interdisciplinary investigation into the testimonies of the more-than-human. Through the use of field recordings, photography and music she creates sound maps that explore local ecologies and experiments with playful interactive mediums of listening.
Noah Berrie is a London-based sound artist, composer, and classically-trained violinist working with installation, video, and performance. Fascination with the foundational elements of sound – vibration, resonance, and texture – permeates his work. Through an assemblage of strings, loudspeakers, and voices; traditional ensembles and digital detritus; reimagined audio technology and invented instruments, Berrie explores space, material, and agency in soundmaking. Fundamentally, his work investigates sound as a mediator between worlds, probing invisible physical, perceptual, social, and emotional realities. As an instrumentalist, he primarily performs with an electroacoustic violin system that uses feedback, neural nets, and gestural tracking as tools to explore new modes of improvisation.
FIN is an artist from the Midlands based in London. Finbar experiments with physical materials as sonic research to create sounding and listening sculptures to exhibit and perform with. Recent works include Sous Vide 1 - 4, a series of sonic vacuum bags, Mirroring Drums, an oversized pair of binaural microphone-speakers & Table at Terrapolis, a sounding table in collaboration with Beth Robertson.
