Radia
[Repeated from Thursday 10.30pm.] Radia, the international group of independent cultural radio stations, presents a new show realised by one of its members, exploring "new and forgotten ways of making radio. Tonight: show 827: The Midnight Drive by Joe Cimino (Radio Papesse). “Breaking news: a severe snow storm is headed this way. There have been multiple closures on I 76 and if you’re headed that way please be safe...” There’s a snow storm headed your way. From the car speakers, the weather forecast calls for bad weather coming. The driver, whose name we do not know, is returning or heading to or from an undisclosed destination. A night show is aired, it might be a local radio she or he has just tuned in; its show host, while meditatively lingering around big topics like time, nature, human vs nature… acknowledges the driver directly – not to the metaphorical driver out there, the invisible listener – and points out different moments that happen outside of the vehicle for the driver to perceive. During this night drive, the weather begins to pick up and change into a snow storm. With it, strange and anonymous voices are heard in the backdrop, bringing back distant sounds and moments in time that don’t seem to add up. Visit radia.fm for more information.

Clear Spot
[Repeated from Tuesday 8pm.] Encounter Special: A House in a Japanese Garden. Imagine a mid-century modern house immersed in a Japanese garden, a building that broke all the architectural rules of the day and one that affronted the local planning committee. This is The New House at Shipton-Under-Wychwood, much celebrated in its day for being both exceptionally modern, yet magically not that different from the cow sheds of the surrounding Cotswold countryside where it was built. In 1962 Roy Stout and Patrick Litchfield designed the house for Barrister Milton Grundy, now in his 90s, who still lives there. In this Encounter Special, produced without narration but with natural sound and radiophonic-musical effects, John Escolme meets those who have lived and partied at the house, and the relatives and co-workers of the architects. To see images of the building, listen to the programme again, and hear other programmes in the Encounter series go to: www.monitorproductioninsound.eu.
