Episode 22: Public Domain
04/2012
Episode 22 will host Public Domain. Public Domain is Jane Burton and Doris Lake, a duo based in central London, UK. They often listen to the bells of Big Ben.
Radius will broadcast Radio Tune. Public Domain takes after its name sake, the public domain, and views, manipulates, edits, and comments on material found within it. Public Domain uses material from radio, records and the internet. The work often mirrors the collective unconscious through the use of voyeurism and dark humor. The resulting work is a collage of reality, time, and experiences.
Public Domain uses collage and montage to reflect upon the things they love, and simultaneously place them in ridicule. Various elements are produced to fit together smoothly, whereas other clash. The discrepancies convey an impression of a heterogeneous assemblage; a careful randomness of disparate elements and collisions. The work critiques the uses of the public domain and plays with the endless juxtaposition of media.
Radius will transmit Radio Tune for two consecutive Sunday and Friday evenings on April 1,6, 8, and 13 at 6pm CST.
