On September 21, 2019, artist-in-residence Milad H. Mozari presented a broadcast on WGXC adapted from his performative talk titled "Historical Discontinuity: Early Electronic Music from Iran." The program features the sound artists that focused on experimental music before the Iranian revolution, the music that preceded it, and the current state of experimental music in Iran and the associated diaspora. The works include Mozari's influences such as Dariush Dolat- Shahi and contemporaries such as Sote.

Tune in for selections from Wave Farm's Transmission Art Archive, a specialized online resource of artists' experiments with the electromagnetic spectrum in form or concept. 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.
