| Abstract | RADIO WONDERLAND turns live commercial FM radio into recombinant funk. All the sounds originate from an old boombox, playing radio LIVE. All the processing is live, in MaxMSP programmed by me. But I hardly touch the laptop. My controllers are a vintage Buick steering wheel, old shoes mounted on stands, and some gizmos. You'll hear me build grooves, step by step, out of recognizable radio, and even hear me UN-wind my grooves back to the original radio source. I want to show that we ALL can interrupt and interrogate the neverending flow. So my transformations, taken individually, must be as clear and simple as possible--framing, repeating, transposing--although when everything is put together the whole is indeed complex. The controllers' functions are simple and clear too: the wheel is merely a knob; I use it to make things go up and down (frequency, tempo) or play loops of radio like a turntable. The shoes have just one sensor each. So, too, my riffs must be vernacular and not elite. RADIO WONDERLAND combines my lifelong interests in found sound, media subversion, dance music, performance, live processing, percussion, technology, spoken word and minimalism. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
