This radiophonic piece is improvised from live broadcast, dubbed and mixed across four channels in real time, with effects layered in the moment. It explores the fleeting quality of sound — how something can be summoned into being just by pressing Play.

It’s about listening as a kind of magic, where the act of playback becomes the act of creation, unfolding outward like a ripple from the centre. A quiet celebration of the ephemeral, the accidental, and the everyday wonder of tuning in.

Radio art is a form of sound-based storytelling that sits at the intersection of broadcasting, performance and sonic experimentation.

It plays with the unique qualities of radio-its intimacy, immediacy and reach-to create immersive listening experiences.

Unlike traditional radio formats, radio art often blurs the lines between narrative, soundscape and abstraction. It can be live or pre-recorded, structured or improvised, but it always invites the listener to engage in a more active, imaginative way.
