10. Remix the Streets (Radio Regen)
- UK
A Project Manager works with youth and
community arts workers to develop a project at onsite street locations.
For example, the team would approach a group of young people - in a bus
shelter, perched on a wall, in the back room of a pub, or in a park -
and ask them if they would like to make a music show. The team carries a
battered suitcase with them that is actually a portable radio studio.
Participants DJ, rap, choose the music, and operate the equipment. The
show is then recorded to cassette and given to the group at the end of
the session. The project culminates in the making of a piece of radio
that can be broadcast on one of Radio Regen’s community stations.
