The book
Radio Art Zone
An artist book exploring the central themes, concepts and techniques of artist-made radio, emerging from over 20 years of practice in the field. The book brings to the page live long-form works from the world’s largest exhibition of radio art, which carry the reader along on interchangeable streams of consciousness. Interspersed with micro-essays on radio form, practice and poetics, and illustrated throughout with unique translucent images, this book performs an exquisite transformation from airwaves to paper and provides a treasury of ideas about radio as art.
