Nadene was just asked if there are any websites to those not so familiar with radio art, and this was her response. If you have any sites to add to the list, comment on this post:
econtact.ca is a web-magazine that includes articles about
sound art, radio art, electroacoustic music and all things related.
One issue in particular you can check out is called eContact! 2.3
Radiophonics and the link is:
http://cec.concordia.ca/econtact/Radiophonic/index.htm. They also
devoted an entire issue to New Adventures in Sound Art which includes
a web-version of our educational booklet "Radio Art Companion" -
eContact! 5.3. The link to the Radio Art Companion is:
http://cec.concordia.ca/econtact/NAISA/CompanionRadio.html
You can also check out the sonus site on which your piece now resides
as part of our effort to get most of the pieces from the Deep
Wireless 2 CD on the web. If you know a composer's name, you can ask
for other pieces by that composer and then listen to MP3s
http://www.sonus.ca).
Another resource for bios and info about ea composers (many of whom
also have written many pieces for radio) is http://www.electrocd.com.
Then there is www.ubu.com - an amazing resource. This site
deserves a very thorough walk-through. You must check out Kurt
Schwitter's Ursonate (note we're planning to present it next year at
Deep Wireless 2006). They also have a comprehensive collection (for
listening) of works by world-renown radio artists including - of
course - Gregory Whitehead! Note Gregory has his own web-site
(http://www.gregorywhitehead.com) - you can watch a quick time remix
of One Lost Hair on his site - this is the link
(http://gregorywhitehead.com/vze4bsve/id34.html)
Kunstradio of course! (http://www.kunstradio.at)
Then there's Sabine Breitsameter's on-line Magazine on
Audiohyperspace (those of you who were at the conference last year
will remember Sabine's talk called Is there a sonic media art? - I'll
never forget some of the very first pieces of radio art ever produced
that she played for us!). The link to Sabine's site is:
(http://www.swr.de/swr2/audiohyperspace/engl_version/)
Darren Copeland has his own site on which he has articles that he has
written about radio art: http://www.darrencopeland.net
Andra McCartney is another resource. She has done several soundscape
projects including one called the Lachine project (BTW this page is a
bit old - she is now a full prof and not an assistant anymore)
http://cec.concordia.ca/econtact/Soundwalk/andra.html
Third Coast Festival has some very interesting special features - not
sure how far back their archives go but always good to go there
regularly and check them out (http://www.thirdcoastfestival.org).
Free103point9.org of course! They are the ones that broadcast the
entire Deep Wireless weekend. (http://www.free103point9.org).
Then of course Helen Thorington's very thorough archive of the New
American Radio series on http://www.somewhere.org
Musicworks Magazine always devotes articles to Canadian and
international artists doing new and interesting things
(http://www.musicworks.ca). Note there is an issue guest-edited by
Dan Lander that is worth a read and is still available as a back
issue. It's issue 53.
Oh and you have to check out Negativland's site!
(http://www.negativland.com)
You can listen to archives of their radio shows as well at
