Radia Show 442: "Cueillette" by Luc Kerleo for Jet FM "Radia" is an international netwrok of radio stations interested in creative and forgotten ways of making radio. Each week, one station makes a show for all the others. Jet FM asked Luc Kerleo to invade her studios. Several sound-objects were placed in the offices, corridors, toilettes… Curiosly the broadcast studios were not used. Then some people were invited to visit this exhibition made of artificial noises bursting in those different locations around the studios, playing with its acoustic, its visual ambiency, its context… The result is a 28 minutes radio show where Luc Kerleo explain his work and where you can hear the sounds of the exhibition mixed with the music which was on air at that time and some real noises due to people working in the radio. from signal to space Luc Kerleo act as a sculptor. He works with moving and instable things like sound, electricity, mechanical movements, liquids and gaz, thoughts. He mainly works with sound for two reasons. First, compared to visual, sound is a discrete manifestation. One of his preoccupations is to make people feel things without having to recover and hide a part of the reality with objects which blocks up or invade the viewing field. Furthermore by listening reality he develops thoughts and reflexion structures which complete our cultural perception of what surrounds us, this perception which on a cultural aspect is mainly based on the visual. Notably the sounding requires us to consider not only what is in front of us but also, and equally, what surrounds us. But then the stake for him is the same than for artists acting in visual. Since it is about representing what surrounds and constitutes us. History and actuality of visual arts (painting, sculpture, installation, drawings, performances) constitute the territory to which Luc Kerleo refers and in which he moves around. Because they are bridges between thinking and action in reality. More informations : http://luc.kerleo.free.fr/

Interviews with DJ Spooky, Pauline Oliveros, Beth Shneck, Bobby Previte, eTeam, and others involved in the "Framing the Viewshed: Groundswell" show at Olana State Historic Site Sun., Sept. 22.

Hethre Contant is the current artist-in-resident at Wave Farm in Acra, NY, and will host this program live, featuring work made during her residency. During her residency Contant will further develop a performance for radio based on research about transmission during The Weimar Republic. This research was compiled in her Master’s thesis, which received The Distinguished Thesis Award from The New School’s Media Studies Department in 2012. Over 90 pages of historical, technical, and theoretical writing addresses a lacuna in media scholarship about the importance of this radio epoch. However, in its academic form, Contant realizes that her research remains limited to a small, rather specific community. A public performance and archival documentation of her proposed performance, makes Contant’s research accessible to a wider public audience.

After the Weekly Presidential Radio Address, and Republican Response, Ragnar Daneskjold hosts this overview of shortwave and FM pirate radio activity.

"This regular edition of framework features works by MUfi.re, Taavi Suisalu, Sawako, Jez Riley French, Hiroki Sasajima, Una Lee, Sleepersecond, Emmanuel Mieville, Artificial Memory Trace, and a framework intro recorded in the UK by Joe Stevens." "Framework" broadcasts two distinct alternating formats, a regular edition, constructed and mixed by its presenter from contributions submitted by listeners and members of the field recording community, and framework:afield, a guest-curated series produced by artists from all corners of the globe and based on their own themes, concepts or recordings.

The Olana Partnership and Wave Farm’s WGXC 90.7-FM are pleased to announce Framing the Viewshed: Groundswell, a groundbreaking event, which features site-specific works in sound, text, installation, and movement. Over a dozen artists will reflect on and react to Olana as an ambitious and early environmental work.

Installation, performance, and participation from: DJ Spooky, Pauline Oliveros, Japanther, Eteam, robbinschilds, Bobby Previte, Maximilian Goldfarb, Greg Fox, Nadja Verena Marcin, David Kermani, Archie Rand, Nancy Shaver, Beth Schneck, and Cara Turett.

Olana’s 250-acre landscape was originally designed in response to its integral views— the “Olana Viewshed”— by Hudson River School artist Frederic Church. Groundswell audiences will explore the property’s undiscovered roads and naturalistic scenes as they encounter each project site.

Framing the Viewshed: Groundswell is co-organized by The Olana Partnership and Wave Farm’s WGXC 90.7-FM, and is made possible, in part, with public funds from the New York State Council on the Arts' Electronic Media and Film Presentation Funds grant program, administered by the ARTS Council of the Southern Finger Lakes; as well as individual contributors including David Kermani.

"Free Speech Radio News," a show that included freelance audio journalism from around the world and aired on WGXC 90.7-FM at 6:30 p.m., and more lately, 6 p.m., will air its final show Fri., Sept. 27. The show ends because of a financial struggle. "Our major funder Pacifica has not been able to pay us and its past-due balance to FSRN is about $198,000," the show's board of directors said in a letter. Dear FSRN listeners, We write to you with some extremely sad news. Last Friday, FSRN’s Board of Directors issued a two-week layoff notice to all staff, with our last daily program scheduled for Friday, September 27th. Our Board took this action because as of September 13th, FSRN had $32,000 in the bank. We project that in order to close up shop and meet our financial and legal responsibilities, it will cost $29,000. FSRN is currently carrying just over $200,000 in accounts receivable. For much of the year, our major funder Pacifica has not been able to pay us and its past-due balance to FSRN is about $198,000. Many of you have supported FSRN during our struggles to make ends meet. Over the years we have made significant cutbacks to respond to a shrinking budget and weathered several financial crises that nearly brought us to the brink of closure. Most recently, funds ran dangerously low this past Spring, but with your help, we raised more than $100,000 from more than 1300 people like you to keep FSRN on the air. Today, we once again find ourselves in crisis. For those of you unfamiliar with FSRN’s operating costs and revenue, we’d like to share a few details. Your grassroots support has been vital to FSRN. Our production currently costs about $36,000 per month. Until recently, your dollars supplemented a $25,000 per month contract with our major donor, the Pacifica Foundation. But our current contract is for just $10,000 per month, which is not enough to sustain daily production at current levels. If we receive a payment from Pacifica, FSRN’s Board will decide how the organization will proceed. Depending on the size of the payment, we may have several options. We are discussing the possibility of transforming FSRN into something new, more digitally-centered and financially sustainable, but still focused on bringing under-represented issues and voices about peace and social justice issues to a global audience. We are currently working hard to develop a sustainable business plan that will take FSRN into the next phase and we hope we can count on you for your support when the time is right. Together with hundreds of reporters in communities around the globe, we have brought you more than 3,400 programs and specials, featuring 20,000+ reporter headlines & features. On more than 100 stations across the US, you have heard stories documenting wrongdoing, repression and corruption, and highlighting the individuals, campaigns and movements that work everyday to bring about a more just and equitable society. We know this work has educated and inspired countless people, and contributed to a growing trend of media outlets that focus on news that serves the public interest. We are so grateful to all of our supporters, past and present, for all your contributions. We will keep you informed on FSRN’s future and how you can play a role in any potential transformation. And if you know of any major donors who would be interested in investing in FSRN’s future, please let us know. In solidarity, FSRN Staff & Steering Committee

Excerpts of recordings of the "Framing the Viewshed: Groundswell" show Sept. 22 at Olana State Historic Site.

Jim Ratts is an obsessive audiocollage technician who has spent a lifetime tweaking and retooling his magnum opus "Those Fabulous Sixties," which got extensive airplay of BSTF. Spanning two ceedees (and thousands of Ratts-hours in the studio), TFS's hundreds of classic songbits and mixmaster editing created the finest platform for earworms ever heard. But it turns out that TFS is only *part* of this sonic maniac's incredible output! What "Those Fabulous Sixties" does to classic rock and unknown freak oddities, "Radioland" does to radio theater! Spanning decades of recorded bulldada, Jim Ratts slices, dices, and entices your palate with a cascading audio melange of familiar voices and routines that interweave through time and space in a coruscating froth of earworm- worthy nostalgia and intriguing kicks. Damn!!! It wraps up with Jim and wife Salli Ratts' band RUNAWAY EXPRESS doing a number. Jim can be reached at his website www.runawayexpress.com regarding TFS and RADIOLAND. It's also possible to snag copies of these two masterpieces--they're not for sale, but there are ways of getting yourself set up with his tasty well-simmered sonic stews.

Reports from "Amateur Radio Newsline," and "Free Speech Radio News," and a report about how "Free Speech Radio News" is ending.

Reports on the end of "Free Speech Radio News," and radiosurvivor.com reports a Federal Communications Commissioner is trying to stabilize AM radio, and FCC schedules an Oct. 3 webinar about how non-profit organizations can apply for low-power FM radio licenses. "Free Speech Radio News," a show that included freelance audio journalism from around the world and aired on WGXC 90.7-FM at 6:30 p.m., and more lately, 6 p.m., will air its final show Fri., Sept. 27. The show ends because of a financial struggle. "Our major funder Pacifica has not been able to pay us and its past-due balance to FSRN is about $198,000," the show's board of directors said in a letter (printed in full below).

But our current contract is for just $10,000 per month, which is not enough to sustain daily production at current levels." The letter says Pacifica currently owes FSRN almost $200,000. The show emerged, in January, 2000, according to Wikipedia, as freelance reporters for the former Pacifica Network News engaged in a strike over censorship by Pacifica's then Executive Director and Board. The strike ended in March, 2002 when the board was replaced and "Free Speech Radio News," since then, received major financial support from Pacifica. The New York Times recently reported Pacifica owes more than $2 million in broadcast fees to “Democracy Now!.” Dear FSRN listeners, We write to you with some extremely sad news.

Radio news from Wave Farm‘s WGXC 90.7-FM in the Hudson Valley, New York. PLAY AUDIO (3:34) Paul Lewis and Dan Roberts in The Guardian report that on Sept. 25, several Senators combined various legislation recently being proposed to rein in United States government surveillance, into the Intelligence Oversight and Surveillance Reform Act. Ron Wyden (D-Oregon), Rand Paul (R-Kentucky), Mark Udall (D-Colorado), and Richard Blumenthal (D-Connecticut) introduced the bill. The Act would prohibit the NSA's bulk collection of phone records of Americans under section 215 of the Patriot Act, and close a so-called "back door" that potentially enables the NSA to intercept the internet communications of Americans swept up in a program protected by Section 702 of the of the FISA Amendments Act. Russia Today reports that Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-California), who is the chairperson of the Senate Intelligence committee, will introduce a weaker bill that would not limit the current scope of NSA surveillance. Howard Reich in The Chicago Tribune reports that among the 24 winners of the 2013 MacArthur Fellowships, or “genius grants,” announced on Wed., Sept. 25, there are several radio-related artists. Each winner receives $625,000 over a five-year period, with no strings attached (an increase from the $500,000 amount of previous years). Since 1981, the Chicago-based John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation fellowships have been selected by a secret process for which no one may apply. This year's winners include 13 men and 11 women, from 32 to 60-years-old. Some of the notable winners: Jeremy Denk, 43, New York, is a concert pianist who plays standard repertory and 20th-century works, and writes in The New Yorker, The New Republic, and other publications. Carl Haber, 54, Berkeley, Calif. Experimental physicist Haber has invented new means for recapturing fragile aural documents. Recordings made on wax cylinders, lacquer discs, and other historic technologies have been retrieved by Haber and colleagues using a non-contact technique that transforms visual data into a digital sound file. Vijay Iyer, 41, New York. Jazz pianist brings the sounds of his Indian heritage in jazz improvisation and composition. Dina Katabi, 42, Cambridge, Mass. Katabi, a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and her collaborators have created ways sending radio waves faster, more safely and more securely. She has, "shown that Wi-Fi signals can be used to read the movement of a person's body, enabling a computer to receive instructions delivered by gesture rather than by keystroke." Friday Morning Quarterback, a radio trade magazine, reports that radio consultant firm Mark Kassof & Co. has revealed a portion of its annual ListenerThink P1 study, and the research shows that 70 percent of 18- to 64-year-old radio listeners agree with the statement: "If you couldn't listen to radio, you'd feel something important was missing from your life." Only 27 percent disagree, while 3 percent don't know. The study also said that 53 percent of 18-64-year-olds agree strongly or slightly that, "radio isn't as good as it used to be." The findings are based on 989 online interviews with radio listeners in the U.S., conducted in September.
