Sounding Off: This Isn't Granddad's Radio - 5:07

with Sean Jones, Artist at Big Car Collective/Listen Hear/WQRT

Posted Jun 14, 2018

A classic example of modern, community radio is discussed. Guest Sean Jones discusses how WQRT and Listen Hear operate under the two philosophical approaches to community radio. While these models are not mutually exclusive they do work well together. Community radio seeks to emphasize its namesake and pursue good. WQRT and Listen Hear does this and also invites participation by the listener. Listen Hear is an ongoing sound art project of Big Car Collective.
