WELCOME TO RADIO LOCAL Hyper local radio from across the UK made with locals, created and presented by deadpan performance art duo Hunt & Darton.
A special one-off podcast in celebration of our time as artist in residence at this years Creative People and Places conference; an online meeting place for everyone interested in shifting approaches in inclusive arts and cultural engagement.
This podcast combines the best bits from our power play workshop sessions with new collaborations discussing anything from co-creation to power to community to joy, with some non-passive delegate interrupters! There’s also some DIY Jingles made on the day, and a cocktail unmastered class in which we attempt to teach all how to make a H&D cocktail to the future.
Hunt & Darton travel to Rainham to make radio with locals live from there pop up studio.

Walk with Matvi by Matvi Khosho. A two-part audio commission exploring the sounds of Mitcham.
Vijay battles through the heat interviewing folks from a distance + reconnecting with his South London roots. He has a chat with his old boss @sandra_redmond from Molly Maids where he worked as a cleaner with my Mum. He stops off at the newsagents he family ran, which was the same place where his Nan lived and spoke to a couple of people there who remembered her from 25+ years ago. Mitcham is very special place, which makes up a lot of the Veej you know today. A lot of working class and British/Indian heritage I’m bloody proud of! ♥️Massive thanks to @fran_gib who was artist assisting me today 🌞 Radio Local will be on 21/22 August live from Mitcham.

Here is Victoria Melody with “The Enthusiasts” a celebration of Barbican Estate’s pastimes and passions. It’s somewhere between a Ted Talk and a French Salon (not a hairdressing salon but the organised talks from the 18th century). But these are shorter more domestic talks from the comfort of people’s own homes. She has been speaking to everybody and anybody with a passion, nothing has been too niche. Music is by Barbican resident Joan Furió Viva.

Through a telephone conversation, participants were asked to describe their favourite places in Kings Lynn. From those descriptions, poems were made and then performed by participants with added sound effects from improvised instruments. The aim of the project was to celebrate heritage and place, using words and sounds to conjure those places without going to them. The resulting poems are collectively called King’s Lynn Serenades and together they take us on a surreal and imaginative tour of Kings Lynn from school to the swimming pool, the park and the guildhall, the walks and the fair.
Odd Comic is composed of cross-genre artists Dot Howard and Holly Bodmer, who have a passion for devising unconventional performance.
