[Repeated from Friday 7pm.] A monthly gathering of radio-theatrical experiments, sonic detours and audacious messes, created and performed by New York-based music/theatre performance group Object Collection. This month, Episode 4: 000-Mono. Written by Kara Feely and Travis Just. Recorded live in performance at The Collapsable Hole, New York City, 3 October 2026. Fifteen performers are split into five groups of three and given a series of 10 performance scores, each group with a different order. Every six minutes a bell rings and the performers progress to the next set of scores. Scores range from suggested discussion topics, to graphic material for interpretation, to cut-up scripts from Gogol to Ubu to Star Trek: Deep Space 9. Two audio recordists roam the theatrical space with boom microphones, following their interest and capturing pinpricks of dialogue, conversation, humming, and scrunching of materials. Performed by Robin Margolis, Geo Kester, Aaron Meicht, Chloë Roe, Leah Plante-Wiener, Laia Comas, Thaleia Dasberg, James Oldham, Daniel Allen Nelson, Devon Granmo, John Hastings, Pimprenelle Noël, Avi Glickstein, Alessandro Magania, Marie Christine Katz.

Invisible Signals
[Repeated from Thursday 4.30pm.] A monthly open-form radio series that traverses archival fragments, field recordings and sonic atmospheres to examine the material and affective dimensions of imperceptible infrastructures. This edition examines the relationship between sound, behaviour and computational logic through archival recordings of early computer music, arcade environments and interactive gaming systems. Algorithmic compositions, electronic signals and responsive musical environments reveal how sonic expression is shaped by decisions and their consequences. The programme combines fragments of historical broadcasts, gameplay recordings and electronic compositions, including Laurie Spiegel's Music Mouse and Masaya Matsuura's Vib-Ribbon. These recordings preserve traces of earlier technologies and the conditions through which sound was generated, while the original interactions are often only partially accessible. Programmed structures establish limits on behaviour, yet players and composers find ways to manipulate, reinterpret or work against their intended functions. How do the sonic environments of technology-mediated play and interaction shape our physical responses, memories and understanding of the systems we engage with? Presented by artist and researcher Florence To. Visit invisiblesignals.org.
