Produced by Wave Farm Radio.
Created while in residence at Wave Farm in Fall 2022, "Virtues for Broadcast" is a radio work in the expanded "Virtues" project by Rami George and J. Midden. Inspired by a series of sonic interpretations of esoteric line drawings produced by the Samaritan Foundation—a new age spiritual cult Rami’s family was involved with in the early 1990s—"Virtues for Broadcast" combines pre-existing "Virtues" material with new broadcast explorations, remixed material, and narrations exploring the Samaritan Foundation.

The resource contains primary materials from early microradio broadcast collaborations among Brooklyn-based artists in the mid-nineties, transmission works created by the hundreds of artists who have participated in Wave Farm projects, broadcasts, and residencies, as well as historical and contemporary projects that comprise the canon of the genre.
