Miscellany

September’s Eyedrum Podcast is ready to download. Performances recorded live at Eyedrum, the downtown Atlanta nonprofit art and music venue, aired monthly on WREK 91.1 FM during the Eyedrum Archive Sunday Special. This month's show centered on the Unbuilt Atlanta art show that opens at Eyedrum on Sept 8th and continues for about a month. In-studio guests Karen Tauches, Tom Zarilli, Kemp Mooney, David Hamilton and Nat Slaughter talked about architecture, development, design and all matters related to the theme of Atlanta's constructed environment. We also played plenty of music, generally in the jazz / freeform / ambient / modern veins, including music by Plastic People Of The Universe, Keenan Lawler, Tony Conrad, Konk Pack, Bent Frequency and GFE.

You can find information and links to download this podcast (and many others) here…

Eyedrum’s programming is supported in part by the City of Atlanta Office of Cultural Affairs and by the Fulton County Board of Commissioners under the guidance of the Fulton County Arts Council.
