This monthly broadcast from Glasgow art radio station Radiophrenia features "How To Unpack A Whale" by Anna Friz and "I've had it up to here with fish & chips" by Ben Knight & Tom White.

‘How To Unpack A Whale’ by Anna Friz - a radiophonic meditation on the containment and escape of material stuff, moved by land, sea and night air, embedded in complex, half-imagined wireless communication channels and signal relays.

‘I've had it up to here with fish & chips’ by Ben Knight & Tom White - a Hörspiel exploring the potential of political listening within professional acts of caring. Drawing on Knight’s experience as a social worker and asylum support volunteer, and composed of interviews with care workers of all kinds, this voice play focuses on what we hear in our caring encounters.

Radiophrenia was a temporary art radio station – a two-week exploration into current trends in sound and transmission arts. Broadcasting live from Glasgow’s Centre for Contemporary Arts, the station promoted radio as an art form, encouraging challenging and radical new approaches to the medium. The broadcast schedule included a series of newly commissioned radio works, live shows, pre-recorded features and 12 Live-to-Air performances. The majority of the program was made up from selections submitted to an international open call for sound art and radio works. The 2016 Radiophrenia station was managed by Mark Vernon and Barry Burns and was funded through Creative Scotland’s Open Project Funding with additional support from CCA Glasgow.
