120 years ago the Radio was patented by Edison. The transmitter enabled one voice to broadcast to many remote people, and the limited range defined each local community. In the Local Radio Orchestra this idea is combined with the engagement of the audience, who create a shuffling and shifting orchestra using the 12 classic portable radios, as they move them around and adjust the settings within range of the transmitter trunk. Inside the trunk are lots of little short range FM transmitters, and each is tuned to a different frequency between 88-108 FM. Together they saturate the radio spectrum within a short radius. This then enables you to tune out and then tune in to the 12 separate parts of the composition to form infinite new arrangements, while also moving the radios around the space and adjusting the volumes as desired... A community radio station! More information: http://www.audioh.com/projects/localradioorchestra.html.
