Audio Relay in Lafayette

Please join us at 527 Main Street in Lafayette, Indiana on Saturday, March 25 from 9 pm to midnight for Lafayette’s inaugural broadcast via the autonomous radio station Audio Relay, which was designed and built by Chicago’s Brennan McGaffey for Temporary Services.

This event is open to the public, which is encouraged to bring:

Any sounds you have made and would like to broadcast
An FM radio – to receive and amplify the local area broadcast
CDs – if you would like to trade sounds with others and burn CDs

On FM 88.9, the Audio Relay will send the sounds of local artists over the airwaves and into a small area of Lafayette.

The following days will feature non-commercial sounds by artists from Europe and the USA, broadcast intermittently from different parts of Greater Lafayette, always between 9 pm and 12 am.
This is an attempt to widen the scope of Lafayette’s local radio, which is currently limited to classic rock, top ten pop charts, top ten classical music and plenty of religion.

Broadcasts and information on this project can be found at www.radiochiguiro.unocerodos.org starting Monday, March 27.
