This episode of "Radio Roaming" - "Feelings on the Radio with Marjorie Van Halteren" - comes in two parts, presenting three works of Halteren's and a brief interview with Van Halteren recorded by Meredith Kooi. Together, these deeply personal and confessional works trace an arc of the breakdown, which might in fact be a breakthrough. 

In Part 1, we begin at the end of the arc with a brief conversation with Van Halteren and "Hexagon Heart" (2019), which was commissioned and first presented by radio art festival Radiophrenia in Glasgow. In this work, Van Halteren takes the listener through stories and moments of her struggle to belong, acclimate, and find her place in France where she expatriated in 1992. Also in this episode is a brief conversation with Van Halteren about the works.

In Part 2, we'll go back to the beginning with "Breakdown and Back, Part 2" (1985) and "Unquiet Graves" (2004). 

This episode of "Radio Roaming" was curated by Meredith Kooi.
