Radio-to-go workshop

Feb 14, 2007 - Feb 15, 2007
Come and develop new ideas for radio experiences, using combinations of oldskool and newskool radio: broadcasting, online radio, microtransmitters, user generated content and more. In collaboration with Radio Rietveld. The price for this workshop is EUR 100 incl. lunch & VAT and EUR 75 if you're a student. Special offer for Rietveld students: 3 can come for the price of 2. With the developments in streaming online audio, podcasting, microtransmitters, multi-user VoIP chatrooms, (etcetera) our idea of what is radio, has thoroughly expanded. Participants of this workshop design radio experiences for (interactive?) listeners. Workshop projects consist of homegrown content ideas for a specific combination of various older and newer 'radio' practices. A couple of projects will be chosen to be brodcast live on Thursday, Feb 15, by Radio Rietveld, that broadcasts and webcasts from Mediamatics' garagebox for the next three months. Participants can also learn to solder their own radio microtransmitter! Lotte Meijer, media designer, maker of the Broadcast-Your-Podcast project and the amazing Wifio set. Lotte Meijer will present her work and lines of research into new kinds of radio experiences. Klaas Kuitenbrouwer, made various radio programmes for Radio 100, Radio Patapoe & for the VPRO and is now Mediamatic’s own workshop coach. One or both of the ladies of Cut-n-Paste will present their innovative radio projects LoveControl, Teletap and CallCenter in which broadcast, podcast and mobile phones meet in intimate and unexpected ways.
