Plug it Up - Open Wave-Receiver Radio Workshop

Plug it Up - Build an Open Wave-Receiver Radio Workshop

Women & Marginalised Genders

Shortwave Collective invite you to make a very simple radio with us! In this workshop, participants will construct a self-powered, tuner-less radio, which we call an Open Wave-Receiver. Working with a basic set of materials – wire, clips, tent pegs, and chosen or found objects – we'll become co-researchers and experimenters, attaching our radios to metal structures as makeshift antennas and searching for signals. No experience necessary! Our workshops have a feminist ethos and are designed as inclusive spaces to question and create together.
