Nothing is Real Radio Hour: SnowFlow (Audio)

Dec 31, 2011
Hosted by Sam Sebren.
SnowFlow, a 3 day collaboration Feb. 11-13 2011, at the Full Moon Resort in the heart of the Catskill Forest Preserve, brought together artists, activists, farmers, biologists, and organizations from all over NY and PA to raise awareness over the threats to our most vital natural resource - clean water. Informal conferencing took place at meals made from locally farmed food and with skiers at nearby Belleayre mountain. There was snowshoeing, snow shelter building, and a special, pure water inspired concert curated by Suzanne Thorpe of EMF and ISSUE Project Room.

The event was organized by Andrea Reynosa and Kevin Vertrees of SkyDog Projects with help from Erin Heaton and Bill Meyer of C-CARE. Sam Sebren was a participant making field recordings for free103point9 and WGXC, and, with Tom Roe, streaming the Feb. 12 concert live on WGXC. (To hear the concert performances in their entirety of Pauline Oliveros, Miguel Frasconi, Suzanne Thorpe, and Tianna Kennedy and Hannah Marcus, please search the WGXC archives under SnowFlow).
