# Programming highlights for the last days of the festival

Negativland: How Radio was done | everyday 7 to 10:00 GMT 0

Negativland presents 5 episodes from their 100-part live-mixed series on
radio history and how it happened, broadcast as part of their weekly radio
show, Over The Edge. Each day, you'll be able to hear one . In the the
first episode, from Morse and Marconi, into the 20s and the earliest
commercial stations, Negativland follows the emergence of this amazing
invention that burst into (US) national consciousness at the turn of the
20th Century with lots of vintage audio, Edison discs, and a view of the
culture and technology that informed it. The episodes move through the
'20s and '30s, with the development of early radio, the spread of new
stations, and emerging content from comedy to melodrama. Anf follows
radio's presentation of WWII as it began, atomic age and the modern UFO
phenomenon, ending in illegal radio. This is radio walking the plank.

The internet and spin-off technologies enforce new ways of thinking about
