Shake, Rattle and Roll (Audio)
Jan 01, 1992
Created by Gregory Whitehead
A personal history inscribed in a technical history. Or, as Whitehead himself describes it, "The strange and inescapable desire to electrocute myself, under the delusion that I will then somehow be able to fly. Brainwaves and radiowaves: magnetic dreams. BUT: the con/current fear of the CRASH, 'ending up in a burn unit.'"Radio as a sensual seduction and political provocation. Radio as a theater of ideas. Winner of the 1993 Prix Futura Berlin. Commissioned by New American Radio.
