Coated Spirits is a collective summoned under the [hauntological] influence of text-image-sound. It was co-founded by Yiannis I. Andronikidis and Evangelos Gkountonis in 2022, with the aim to explore the ‘hauntological affect’ of sound in film-making — its “sharp relief and shadowy manifestations” in audio~video~archival channels. The collective has been rehearsing the previous through a series of ‘sound autobiographies’ in Video Club (2022–), a radio program hosted at fade.radio.
