Welcome to episode 4 of ISM Frequencies first broadcast on @RefugeWorldwide. The Radiophonic Institute has been invited to create a mix this time. They chose to compile some of the recordings from their Radiophonic Travel Agency project which uses sound to enable listeners to explore the whole recorded world from the safety and comfort of their home. The Travel agency exists as an interactive experience created in collaboration with BBC Research & Development, listeners can choose which destinations they would like to explore and how long they would like to spend in them.
The Radiophonic Institute was born out of the profound legacy of the BBC Radiophonic Workshop. They are an organisation that creates, connects and champions innovation in sound and music. Led by inspirational composer, creator and curator Matthew Herbert, a key aspect of their work is to inspire and enable a new generation of diverse creative practitioners to collaborate, and to challenge the pre-existing conventions of music making and sound design. Active initiatives include The Oram Awards, The Radiophonic Travel Agency, Sound Of The Year Awards and the Museum of Sound. Their work is supported through partnerships with the PRS Foundation, BBC R&D, The Daphne Oram Trust, and is funded by Arts Council England, and a range of public and private organisations.
