This month's Radiophrenia features Jess Worrall and artist Rob Kennedy, as well as Klaysstarr.

"The Three Ring Circus Comes to Town," is a new collaborative radio work by Glasgow based theatre designer and writer Jess Worrall and artist Rob Kennedy. “So…s… so what we’re seeing here is that there are things you can’t immediately control… you can’t control the motivations and the actions… but what we are seeing them seek to control is the physical space around this as much as they can… there are people as we’ve been speaking to…who are locked in… into other locations… they are now clearing the space around it and they’re… controlling what they can… they can’t control what’s in the mind.”

In Klaysstarr's "Faux Départ 5," Glasgow based sound artist and researcher Iain Findlay-Walsh (AKA Klaysstarr) uses field recording and excessive self-reference to explore his personal listening. “Imagination dead imagine autoethnography-collage hat-tip catalyzed by sammy beckett’s faux départ 4 dredged up from no put together by no channelled through no done by no end to end of end of end of end of end of end of beginning again etc. couldn’t have got in, can’t get out etc. field recordings of recordings of recordings of recordings of listening to listening to listening. sat still, still as possible, still again, still sat still, again sat still again. starts again, ends again. reflexive impotence etc. and piano. also funny.”

This monthly program features highlights and commissions from Glasgow art radio station Radiophrenia.

Presented on an annual basis, Radiophrenia is 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. Each year, the broadcast schedule includes a series of newly commissioned radio works, live shows, pre-recorded features and 12 Live-to-Air performances. The majority of the program is made up from selections submitted to an international open call for sound art and radio works. Radiophrenia is managed by Mark Vernon and Barry Burns and is funded through Creative Scotland’s Open Project Funding with additional support from CCA Glasgow.
