Radio Free GAK Episode January 17, 2011

24 Hours of Radio Art: Hours 19 & 20 - "FM synthesis" (2011 January 17)

6:59am - 9:04am

In the schedule notes, this is harkened more to an old school "radio free gak" podcast, which makes a sort-of sense. On January 17, 1963, Robert Filliou announced that that day was art's one millionth birthday. January 14, 2008 marks my radio birth, so consider this a shared celebration.

Proper Canadian syntax dictacts that commas do not separate the three digits of numbers with more than five digits, hence the spaces in one million and forty-eighth.
