MAKER RADIO: AUDIBLE CULTURE WORKSHOPS
10 evolving Fridays from February 28th through March 27th


​
The Berkshires, long considered the cultural mecca of the Northeast, attracts an unusually curious population. Many residents and visitors are talented makers of art, literature, music, and, now with internet bandwidth, software. Like so many creative “makers,” WBCR serves our community by teaching the art of audio.

Radio, the original purveyor of audible culture, has been evolving for 100 years and now includes podcasting, essentially a form of narrowcasting. We now have on-demand access to programming that presents every topic imaginable and every musical style.  Podcasting —  a sound-centric medium — is perfect medium for contemporary radio producers.

Operating a radio station in 2020 and beyond requires the skills to record, edit and process audible culture into tangible forms for broadcast, podcast and websites.
