This broadcast features the "Short Waves / Long Distance" program curated by Wave Farm for INTERRUPTIONS #21 on Radio Web MACBA, a project of the Museum of Contemporary Art, Barcelona. INTERRUPTIONS #21 presents presents an international look at works that explore the sonics of the shortwave radio spectrum (2-30 mHz), and the experience of long distance listening. The program features works by 15 artists who originate from Canada, Italy, New Zealand, Poland, Scotland, Spain, and the United States. Commissioned essays by David Goren and Andrew Moon, as well as artist work descriptions are available on a PDF, which accompanies the program at https://rwm.macba.cat/en/home
