Radio Silence

Radio Silence is an ephemeral micro FM radio station that amplifies messages often suppressed from broader transmission. Its listening range reaches neighbours and passers-by in the immediate vicinity who actively tune in through the station’s micro receivers. During this 48-hour window of ‘urban silence,’ Radio Silence amplifies messages from frequencies outside the broadband of public perception. Sounds emerge from secluded spaces, the volume is raised through song and ritual, oral tellings unearth obscure histories, vibrations rise in the marching echoes of solidarity, and loud whispers of celestial forecasts tell the story of our time. As the city retreats into silence, this micro radio outpost invites locals to drop by and tune in to the polyphonic tapestry of the unsilenced urban soundscape.
