Updates: Gregory Whitehead, Radio Wonderland, The Lothars, and more
Happy New Year audioheads,
Here are the latest updates from Megapolis HQ:
GREGORY WHITEHEAD is Saturday’s first featured presenter. Hurray! Whitehead is a veteran audio producer and radio playwright, the winner of numerous Very Important Awards (such as the BBC Award, Prix Futura and the Prix Italia), and makes his appearance at Megapolis thanks to generous support from Transom.org .
We’re also pleased to announce NYC-based radio bricoleur Joshua Fried’s RADIO WONDERLAND and local electro-theremin rock stars THE LOTHARS will be performing for opening night on Friday. Yah!
Submission deadline approaches. Wednesday, Feb 11th. There are less than 5 weeks left to submit a workshop, presentation, or performance proposal. Get to it, people.
Our list of partners and supporters is growing. WZBC, the Public Radio Exchange, Transom.org, the Pierre Menard Gallery, and the Boston Cyberarts Festival are all helping to bring Megapolis to you. Does your organization want to be a part? We’re looking for help to pay for travel expenses of presenters, venues, and more. Send an email to contact [at] megapolisfestival [dot] org.
