NEXT MEETING NOW THURSDAY 22 NOVEMBER 6-8.30 with Marko Peljhan

CHANGE OF DATE FOR OUR NEXT MEETING to feature Marko Peljan

AV Festival 08’s featured artist Marko Peljhan will be making a site visit to the region and has agreed to come to the next Radio Club Meeting to talk to us about his radio related projects and his involvement in AV Festival 08.

Slovenian artist Marko works with telecommunications technology, contemporary architecture and sustainable energy. An artist of unparalleled ambition, Peljhan has worked with the Russian Space Programme, and plans to launch his own telecommunications satellite. After building the art-science laboratory, Makrolab, which has been installed in inhospitable and remote locations around the world, Peljhan is currently working on laboratories for the most challenging environments on earth - Antarctica and the Arctic circle. Peljhan was the featured artist at the world’s most prestigious electronic art festival, Ars Electronica, in 2007.

To accommodate this we have agreed to change the date of the meeting to Thursday 22 November 2007, here at Harker’s. I hope that you can all still make it, as this is a wonderful opportunity to meet Marko and here him talk about his radio projects

Thursday 22 November
6-7pm Waygood Radio Club Meeting with Radio reception testing
7-7.30pm refreshments
7.30-8.30 Marko Peljhan Talk + Question & Answer session

The talk is open to anyone, so please feel free to invite anyone who may be interested. Please ask them to RSVP to Liping@waygood.org, stating that they are coming to Marko’s talk.

I would be grateful if you could RSVP to the same address confirming if you are coming to the Radio Club meeting (and we assume that will be staying for Marko’s talk too).

With all best wishes


Helen

Just been reading the Radio blog and about the very exciting Marko Peljhan talk. I can feel my spine tingling with excitement.

Noticed this article on msn. I know it not radio but I like the idea of old technology being reused and being better than our present technology.
