Description

An audible radio signal picked out of an ocean of static serves as a beacon, a lighthouse, a weather station, a warning: here be rocks, here be shallows, here be treacherous tides. A signal anyone might hear, but also imagined by and especially made for the listener who finds it. This performance considers the radio beacon, using radiophonic instruments and transmitters, cottage-built electronics, and recordings/photo montage from recent fieldwork in Iceland and Chile.
