Sister Akousmatica
Radio, but not as you know it.
Overview
Sister Akousmatica is radio like you've never heard it before. For this year's Next Wave Festival, over seven hours seven female musicians from around the country will perform on the banks of the Yarra. But that's not where you'll listen. Instead, you'll join curators Julia Drouhin and Pip Stafford as they lead a procession through the streets of Melbourne with an arsenal of portable radios, stopping at various landmarks along the way to tune in to each performance. The pair will leave from Signal, Flinders Walk at 11am on Sunday, May 8, but you can join them at any time and stay for as long as you wish. And don't worry if you can't make it into the city — you can still listen in on 3CR 855AM, or via stream at 3cr.org.au.
