Radio School is a free and participatory schooling experiment taking place in/on/through Seyðisfjörður Community Radio. Broadcasting on FM 107,1, and online at www.seydisfjordurcommunityradio.net. Everyone is welcome to contribute, participate and listen in. The program is announced in our newsletter. Sign up here.
Our newsletter functions as our monthly L e a k … and is our attempt at coordination. By subscribing you receive invitations to radio school activities. Sometimes calling for voices, sometimes for listening in, and often both.
It could be:
R e a d i n g t o g e t h e r … You can join our reading group by attending live on air or by following the reading while listening.
S t u d i o v i s i t s … You can sign up for a studio visit over the radio, or listen to others’ studio visits.
W o r k s h o p s … You can sign up to participate in a range of different on-air workshop formats.
P r a c t i c i n g t o g e t h e r … You can listen to playlists for practice, knowing that others, from many other somewheres, will be listening to the same while attending to their practice.
P l a z a … You can come after-hours and hang out at the plaza - talking about what caught your eye, perhaps.
Radio School is not a school about radio. It is a school in/on/through radio. The radio is where we breathe. It is our shared habitat. The radio is where we practise. It is our shared praxis. It is where we speak/talk/listen/translate/read together. It is where we show and share work to and from each other, and others. It is where we agree/disagree, leave it and lose it, in an act of giving.
Everything, regardless of medium, has qualities of vibration … a frequency … a connectedness of our coordinates and our currents … a radiophonic existence … (a shared map makes it more fun to be lost)
