Thursday 11th August

12:00am - 12:00am

Radio Art Zone

With our regular broadcasters on their summer holidays, we go live to the Radio Art Zone, the 100-day radio art festival curated by Knut Aufermann and Sarah Washington realised as part of Esch2022, European Capital of Culture. Today, till 11am: Olivia Bradley-Skill – Ceremonies For A Commuter. In a broadcast that plays on the idea of a sound walk, radio DJ, sound designer and experimentalist Olivia Bradley-Skill records her daily 30 minute route to work at freeform radio station WFMU. The piece meditates on 3 main themes: what it means to record, walking as an activity, and finding creativity in the mundane realities of daily life. At 11am we join the daily À table! till 1pm, when a new 22 hour show starts: Lucinda Guy's Skylark. Skylark is a full time FM radio station, broadcasting across Dartmoor National Park in South West England. It has no programmes, but plays a continuous, generated piece of local voices and noises. For Radio Art Zone Lucinda provides a different mix, pulling together clips from our archive that take listeners everywhere into the heart of our wild moorlands, with imposing granite tors, mythology, grazing ponies, pixies and peat bogs.
