Radiozound was a popup local radio station in Medway Kent.
Broadcasting for one day only on the 14th June 2013 as part of the Fuse Medway Festival
Radiozound transmitted 5 hours of round ship radio from Light Vessel 21.
Original content was created & curated by Jane Pitt in collaboration with artists (local & regional)
and residents of Medway including a mezzo soprano improvising nautical terms,
Inside a Hive,
Spooner the Tuner tickling the ivories
Hand of Stabs,
Morse Shanties & much more..
The audience listened to the transmission live on transistor radios on deck and inside the ship
opening their ears to unheard sounds of Medway and
sharing sonic adventures from across the region.
