The Crypto Audiological Society - Radio 0
15th April
RADIO 0 was an evening of sound based performances exploring the use of short range domestic FM radio transmitters which took place at HAL on the 15th of April. Several micro-stations were broadcasting simultaneously throughout the Hull Art Lab and the audience were invited to mediate the work using portable radios.
The content of the broadcasts generated exploited the technical possibilities of the radio medium and its cultural context.
The nature of the evening was one of on-going experimentation and improvisation rather than a presentation of set pieces, and the work as a whole developed as the evening progressed. The artists involved were a mix of local and UK practitioners.
The C.A.S. is a recently formed group of international artists and scientists with an interest in sound. The purpose of the society is to consolidate knowledge and resources in order to carry out practice based research and publish material. The C.A.S. recently took part in this year's Sonic Arts Network Expo in Manchester.
