by James Wilkes & Holly Pester

A new performance of poetic texts exploring the radio voice, which hovers between the paranoia of panic broadcasts, secret codes and the end of the world, and the euphoria of communion across vast distances. Vulnerable to dispersal in static and hiss, to detuning and disaster, this voice from the machine is a marker of human contact, a resonating chamber.
