Echoing the wider resurgence of radio practices within contemporary art (a subject for some slightly overdue, much longer speculations at a future time), the Melbourne/Naarm ARI Blindside, located in the Nicholas building, had a very organised iteration of its radio art station B-side Radio running within its gallery spaces between November 21 and December 13, to celebrate its 20th anniversary.
As part of this comprehensive programming, Jasmin Wing-Yin Leung and I were asked to stage an adaptation for live radio broadcast of our recent collaborative project THE NINTH TONE for the in-gallery radio studio on Wednesday 4th December, 5-6pm. This was a welcome extension of the recent performance at the Chinese Museum and speaks to our shared desire to continue this project in variously scaled future forms. Thank you Blindside!
