This XMTR (Transmitter) Radio Hour is a conversation with Ed Baxter who has recently stepped down as Resonance FM creative director after being at the helm for over 22 years. Ed has selected a number of audio works that he initiated, directed or produced during this time, with a common theme of 'creating the conditions for something to happen'. These radio experiments are a wonderful example of what occurs when this medium is stretched and contorted, allowing for the unexpected whist setting out imaginative parameters. Works included are: Score for Open-heart Surgery on Charlie Watts, Shut Your Eyes to Art, SpeedDataRadio, The Exeter Whisper, Fifth Sketch for Ascent and Descent, Intimacy and Distance and Millions Flee as California Burns.
