This monthly program features highlights and commissions from Glasgow art radio station Radiophrenia. Presented in today's episode is Overwhelming Waves by Jeff Gburek and MINUS TARGET by Alias Domaines.

Overwhelming Waves is an essay in radio signal and radio noise. It is a collage of shortwave radio captures recorded by Jeff Gburek at various locations, some spanning 25 years, recomposed & combined with an spoken word commentary about the meaning of this listening process, the relationship of the earth to the ionosphere and the electro-magnetic resonance of the planet reflected in radio waves where the individual listener is a creative participant, an electroreceptor and transmitter of consciousness. References include Pauline Oliveros, Thomas Ashcraft and Douglas Kahn.

Commissioned for Radiophrenia 2020 with the support of Creative Scotland. http://transparent-abelard.blogspot.com https://jeffgburekprojects.bandcamp.com
