Transom.org: Audio Shortlists and Other Radio Art

Public radio community site Transom.org is featuring “Shortlists” recorded by site visitors ranging from professional radio producers to general public call-ins. From the site:

“A Short List is made from your experience or research or daily life. You read it out loud for about 60 seconds and then tell us at the end what the list WAS. It’s a story, with the title at the end. It might be funny, poetic, political…you decide. The grace of these bits is in the mystery.”

Transom.org’s project was originally a collaboration with NPR’s Day to Day and WCAI radio. Transom.org is now also featuring coverage of Deep Wireless, a month-long celebration of radio art held in Toronto this May.
