GIANT EAR))) HEATER OR WATER HAMMERS

Hosted By Bleakley McDowell
Dec. 27, 2009: 7 p.m. – 9 p.m.—Eastern Standard Time (NYC)

Curated/Organized by: New York Society for Acoustic Ecology

Deep winter approaches. Instant, drastic climate change aside, it will be getting colder. In the majority of New York City buildings this means old steam radiators will be sputtering to life. The first half of today’s broadcast is collection of recordings of these radiators from various apartments. Listen for the water hammer…it’s getting hot in here. We follow that with paranoid, beyond-the-grave wax cylinder recordings and a journey to mystical Surakarta, Indonesia. False gong - neither a beginning nor an end, a start nor a finish. With work by Edmund Mooney, Jonny Farrow and Bleakley McDowell.

Do you think that electric cars should make noise? I wrote a story for The Times Wednesday on the growing movement to ensure that these nearly silent vehicles emit tones to warn the blind and other pedestrians of their approach. As might have been expected, it sparked a debate

There’s plenty of music already. Why bother doing anything new?
