Optimized!
Third volume of irregular split series. This time pairing two artists at the top of their 'collagist' game, People Like
Us and Porest.The Parallel Broadcasts presents Porest's recordings from the covert sector of his archives. Culled from
shortwave and FM broadcasts, these selections were intercepted via prepared radio - finely tuned to receive what is
known in certain circles as parallel broadcasting. Content explores the trauma of emerging global consciousness, acute
cultural antipology and the urgent placement of democratic music today.Recorded on location in Jan/Feb, 2016 - Featuring
contributions from Paul Staufenbiel and Michael DarrAll On A Beautiful Day was recorded in Spring 2016 by People Like Us
for "Optimized!" - a week-long online a/v radio station programmed by Vicki Bennett, housed on WFMU.org which
experimented with ideas of what radio might be in the world of high speed internet broadcasting. The content included 26
new a/v artist works, including both this and Porest's Parallel Broadcasts, where people were invited to respond to the
word "optimized".
