Scanning
Jesse Eric Schmidt
Scan, the default tool, which is available on most vehicle radios, is used in Scanning not as a temporary method of searching, but as an experience in itself. If this mode is no longer used as only a practical means for biased programming, but is acknowledged as an end in itself, then a rhythmic modular inventory is generated that presents living chunks of broadcasted zeitgeist.
Scanning consists of continuous replays of Chicago FM station scans from the very immediate past. -Reprinted from Radius.
