Intimacy And Distance
[Repeated from Friday 3pm.] Subtitled "Suspension of Belief," Intimacy and Distance is a classic of its kind, first broadast 7 June 2009: a unique broadcast, its mix of high and low fidelity is highly suggestive, evoking the uncanny mental space of both rock climber and radio listener.

Gaz can't hear Jim. Jim can't hear Gaz. The two meet only in radio, on an equal footing with the production team and the listener. Conceived and produced by Ed Baxter and Chris Weaver. Engineers: Nick Hamilton (London), Bob Drake (Caudeval). Music: Max O'Brien. Announcer: Richard Thomas. Mixdown: Michael Sinden.
Preceded by Resonance Radio Orchesta's "Sketch for Suspension of Belief," featuring Christoph Alex, Chris Weaver, Rhodri Davies and Ed Baxter, made for AV08.
