Breakfast at Export Radio 3

WHO?

Our station is Internet-based and led by Experimental Communication (School of Communication) students at the Royal College of Art of London. We curate weekly showcases of music, conversation and interview, collected from both RCA students and further afield. This sonic satellite is an opportunity to re-invigorate the public through worldwide collaboration and discussion, whilst also building bridges in a post-Brexit, mid-Covid-19 environment.

WHAT?

Used as a knowledge-sharing and collaborative platform, Export Radio offers a parallel space for students to reflect on WHAT they are learning about, but especially HOW they are taught at the RCA. In the context of the Work in Progress show, students felt the need to find a more humane and interactive way to share their work, their concerns regarding the institution they are studying in but also their professionalization. WHAT WILL HAPPEN NEXT, once we leave the RCA?

Following this thought, the team at Export Radio has put together 3 breakfast sessions which will feature performances, roundtables, Q&As… It will offer students another format for visibility, getting their voices heard within and outside the ‘walls’ of the RCA. These sessions will be run during the satellite event for Visual Communication at the Ugly Duck (Tanner Street)!

HOW?

We will be broadcasting different types of shows during the Breakfast sessions: - individual works presentations/performances of graduates or soon-to-be graduates. (these include a wide range of formats: podcasts, DJ sets, sound pieces, live workshops,...). - roundtable discussions with groups of students/alumni/graduates from the RCA

During this time we will be recording our Sonic Yearbook! Due to be finished in July! Sign up for your copy on our Kickstarter! http://kck.st/3yAUBoG

We’re looking forward to ‘hear’ from you and meet you on our audio-visual waves! Tune in soon!
