Free Lab Radio – East Asia, Go! by Fari B
“You can cut all the flowers but you cannot keep Spring from coming.”
Neruda
This Saturday night we sampled electronica tracks from and evoking East Asia.
With Free Lab Radio host Fari B.
Going out 11-midnight GMT on 104.4FM if you are one of London’s 7 million Londoners, or online elsewhere, use this handy Radioplayer.
Repeats Thursday 2am.
Joined by a group of dynamic women all well versed in the constant debate around gender and society, Fari Bradley discusses the pending take over of London’s Southbank Centre for WOW Festival 2012, marking International Women’s Day.
Guests are writer Hannah Pool, best known for her column “The New Black” in The Guardian and co-programmer of WOW, Lynne Parker, founder of Funny Women – one of One Hundred Unseen Powerful Women ‘who change the world’ for her outstanding work in the arts, Rachel Millward founder of Bird’s Eye View an organisation that work to help the mere 7% of all filmmakers who are women, plus Domino Pateman Arts Co-ordinator and Artistic Director Jude Kelly’s assistant on special projects.
We went last year on the winding March Across the Bridge with Annie Lennox, heard women with positions in Afghanistan’s government as well as many other groups explain their work and their situation. The warmth and urgency of the massively diverse crowd has stayed with us. This is the second WOW festival, aiming to put women fully at the centre of public life.
