The Radio Art Hour: Hali Palombo, Shortwave Collective, Momus (Audio)

Jul 16, 2022
Produced by Wave Farm Radio Artist Fellows and Artistic Director Tom Roe.
Today we hear two works from Hali Palombo's "Radio Utah" album, one performance from the Shortwave Collective, and a radio play, or horspiel, from Momus. First, tune in Palombo's "Antenna Construction & Los Angeles" and "Arizona Check Ins" from her 2020 album "Radio Utah." The works sample shortwave radio. So does the Shortwave Collective, an international feminist group using the radio spectrum as artistic material that includes Alyssa Moxley, Brigitte Hart, Franchesca Casauay, Georgia Muenster, Hannah Kemp-Welch, Kate Donovan, Lisa Hall, Maria Papadomanolaki, Sally Applin, and Sasha Engelmann. Here, tune in their "Receive-Transmit-Receive" performance from a broadcast on Radiophrenia by Glasgows Centre for Contemporary Arts in Nov 2020, and as part of RAD Performance's International Women's #TakeBackTheStreets Soundride in Vienna on March 8, 2022. Finally, tune in "Summerisle Horspiel," a radio play from Momus with Anne Laplantine.
