Welcome to "The Radio Art Hour," a show where art is not just on the radio, but is the radio. "The Radio Art Hour" draws from the Wave Farm Broadcast Radio Art Archive, an online resource that aims to identify, coalesce, and celebrate historical and contemporary international radio artworks made by artists around the world, created specifically for terrestrial AM/FM broadcast, whether it be via commercial, public, community, or independent transmission. Come on a journey with us as radio artists explore broadcast radio space through poetic resuscitations and playful celebrations/subversions of the complex relationship between senders and receivers in this hour of radio about radio as an art form. "The Radio Art Hour" features introductions from Philip Grant and Tom Roe, and from Wave Farm Radio Art Fellows Karen Werner and Jess Speer. The Conet Project's recordings of numbers radio stations serve as interstitial sounds. Go to wavefarm.org for more information about "The Radio Art Hour" and Wave Farm's Radio Art Archive.
Delia Derbyshires "Inventions For Radio 1: The Dreams" and "The Piano Tuning" by Chantal Dumas are featured. "Inventions for Radio1: The Dreams" was created in 1964 by the British electronic music composer Derbyshire in collaboration with writer Barry Bermange. In 1960 Derbyshire joined the BBC as a trainee studio manager, and later led the BBC Radiophonic Workshop, working on the "Doctor Who" theme, and many other electronic experiments. Dumas produced "The Piano Tuning" for German radio in 2010. Chantal Dumas is a sound artist based in Montreal. Since 1984, Dumas has worked with compositions, radio art, sound narratives, sound installations, and sound design. The show is produced by Wave Farm, Tom Roe, and Wave Farm Radio Art Fellows Karen Werner and Jess Speer.
