The Radio Station - "Student Projects"

Radio 363 is a short-term project debuting the creative programs and station elements of college students enrolled in the Department of Southern Illinois University, Carbondale, USA.

Listen 24/7 on Sound Cloud
The programming is produced using Protools and similar digital software, then it was archived using Sound Cloud.  Radio 363 comes in three parts - Part I is The Radio Station.   Part I is a composite of a variety of segments and promos totalling one hour.  Then Part II and III consist of two much longer programs - The Sam Means Project (30 minutes, produced by Sam Means featuring his music) and Alternative Radio (60 minutes, produced by Randall Byrant).

Additional radio student programming is available at the "documentary" blog SoundProof 464 (see links on the right side of this page). Various student documentaries can be heard there.

On Site in Second Life
Radio 363 will be temporary streamed through Shoutcast, with the completed programming uploaded and mixed through the digital software Sam Broadcaster in January 2012, at the launch of Spring semester, as part of an open house in-world in conjunction with the kick-off of the new course, Radio-Television Electronic Media Workshop - Virtual Worlds, taught inside Second Life.  Radio/music/programming are among the media themes represented within that course, as well as all the media arts and practice such as real-time animation, fashion and product creation, marketing/business, journalism, etc. 
 
Radio 363 will be streamed for a limited time inside Second Life on the property of Lowe Runo Productions;  in addition, the station will be available online on the designated Shoutcast server, Sonicity Radio.  Here's some photos of the virtual station.






Details to follow in the weeks ahead.
