Across the Borderline!!!

This coming Sunday, June 29, at 2 pm on WBCR, Across the Borderline with Phil Johnson will feature a multiplicity of noise and sound, and an interview with Tom Roe, program director of free103point9.

Free103point9 is a nonprofit arts organization that cultivates the transmission arts and promotes artists who explore transmission mediums for creative expression.  They curate the week-long Noise Festival that the Ontological-Hysteric Incubator presents each year at St. Mark’s Church in the east village of Manhattan.  They are co-presenting the Off the Grid event that features contemporary works that challenge conventional and commercial infrastructures, now showing at the Neuberger Museum of Art at SUNY Purchase College.  Free103point9 is also producing the Radio Action III program for RWM, a radio-phonic project on the Barcelona Contemporary Museum of Art web site that explores the possibilities of the internet and radio as spaces of synthesis and exhibition.

And locally Tom Roe is DJ and presenter in the Port of City of Hudson Summer Concert Series, offering a range of music and sound for the community that runs through the summer to September.

To get an idea of the array of activities free103point9 is involved in, you can go to their web site: free103point9.org.

And listen this Sunday at 2 pm to Across the Borderline with Phil Johnson.
