We are organising 2 events in partnership with the Royal College of Art of London during its Work in Progress Show. These events will respectively be an opening 24 HOURS LIVESTREAM (on Jan 29th) and an AFTER PARTY (on Feb 5th).
The events will both be hosted on our website : www.exportradio.club
About
WHO?
Our station is Internet-based and led by Experimental Communication (School of Communication) students at the Royal College of Art of London. We curate weekly showcases of music, conversation and interview, collected from both RCA students and further afield. This sonic-satellite is an opportunity to re-invigorate the public through worldwide collaboration and discussion, whilst also building bridges in a post-Brexit, mid-Covid-19 environment.
WHY?
Used as a knowledge-sharing and collaborative platform, Export Radio offers a parallel space for students to reflect on WHAT they are learning about, but especially HOW they are taught at the RCA. In the context of the Work in Progress show, students felt the need to find a more humane and interactive way to share their work, their concerns regarding the institution they are studying in but also their professionalization. WHAT WILL HAPPEN NEXT, once we leave the RCA?
HOW?
Following this thought, the team at Export Radio has put together a 24hours Livestream which will feature performances, roundtables, Q&As… It will offer students another format for visibility, getting their voices heard within and outside the ‘walls’ of the RCA.
To close-up the week, Export is organising an AFTER PARTY open to all! Starting with a workshop on EXperimental COMmunity Radios hosted by RCA tutors and students alike, the party will carry on with DJ sets takeovers from 5pm onwards. Keep tuned!
