On Air: Varpcast
The Radio Art Hour
Listen here: www.wavefarm.org

Varpcast is a radio show presented by musicians Ensemble Adapter (Reykjavík, Berlin), Celeste Oram (Tāmaki Makaurau/Auckland) and Keir GoGwilt (Edinburgh, Manhattan). It scavenges the public broadcasting archives of island nations - especially Aotearoa/New Zealand and Iceland - and talks back to this archive, and to the global 20th century, from the supposed periphery of islands. As these island stories oscillate between geopolitics and anecdotes, the zany and the heartfelt, they offer much to considerations of the future, and the search for personal & political self-determination in a globally indebted world. Because everywhere is far away from somewhere – yet no man, nor nation, is an island. Devised & performed by Celeste Oram, Ensemble Adapter & Keir GoGwilt. Recorded at Figure8 Studios, Brooklyn NY Engineered & mixed by Lily Wen. For more information click here.
