Helsinki, April 10-14 2005

During recent years we have seen erosion of public broadcasting support for creative radio in several countries around the world, whilst at the same time we have seen a flourishing of net radio practices and hybrid wireless projects. particle/wave will foster points of contact between radiomakers working in traditional and emergent ways. by bringing together radiomakers from a diverse array of practices to exchange skills and perspectives on radio art and technologies and cultures of radiomaking from across public, community and independent net and participatory radio.

ÄÄNIradio 2k5 :: ÄÄNIradio is an experimental radio project based in helsinki at the centre for music & technology. first broadcast during august 2004 in conjunction with isea2004. using temporary special event FM licenses and a variety of recently developed net radio tools, ÄÄNIradio explores diverse approaches to participatory public radio and open content broadcasting. ÄÄNIradio has a second temporary FM license for helsinki during april 2005 which will enable broadcast experimentation throughout particle/wave and pixelACHE.

dot.org boom :: particle/wave workshop joins pixelACHE 2005 in exploring the thematics of open tools and open content. particle/wave will extend the thematic of sound in public space from last year's signal | process workshop into the arena of public broadcast spaces, and introduce participants to a variety of approaches to low budget / d.i.y. open radio making.
