Contemporary Arts Show Podcasts

I have put up podcasts from the first three shows of the Contemporary Arts Show on Podomatic.

The first, orginally broadcast on 03/05/09, includes an interview with the artist Matt Robinson about his exhibition at the Phoenix Gallery for Brighton’s Fringe Festival 2009

The second contains a live performance from a Safehouse Collective Ensemble, compromising, Gus Garside, Annie Kerr and Dave Allen

The Third has an interview with academic Dr Katy Shaw, senior lecturer in literature at Brighton University on David Peace, author of GB84, Red Riding Quartet, Damned United and Tokyo Year Zero

I would like top thank all the guests for their sheer brilliance. I would also like to apologise to all listeners for my nerves. In later shows I learnt to write a script!… However again the guests are superb and that’s what the show’s about.

Radio Show on Radio Reverb

I’ve just started producing a 4-weekly radio show on Brighton’s Radio Reverb community radio station. It’s called The Contemporary Arts Show. I use the term arts in a broad way, I incorporate art, dance, theatre and music as well as literature, film and theory. All items have a Brighton theme, or are interviews with Brighton people.

The last one had the artist Matt Robinson who was exhibiting at the Phoenix Gallery, the next one will have Gus Garside, Annie Kerr and Dave Allen playing live and talking about free improvisation.

It is a live stream and will play on Sunday 31st at 1pmĀ  from www.radioreverb.com or if you live in Brighton on 97.2fm. It is repeated Monday June 1st at 3pm.

It should play in your media player. iTunes creates permanent link that means you don’t have to go to website everytime you want to listen.

The show after is Sunday 28th June and should have an interview with Dr Katy Shaw about her forthcoming book on David Peace
