I had a great time on Saturday night, the 22nd, at the Lab in San Francisco for a combination of lecture and music performance, a hybrid that may be my favorite format. The theme was radio. The lecture was by Rick Prelinger on the topic of “practical radio,” such as shortwave and CB, not to mention GPS and Bluetooth. The performance was by Anna Friz and Jeff Kolar, using real-time and prerecorded signals as the raw material for abstract atmospheric music.
