Letzte Ausgabe von Geographical Imaginations
Samstag, 22. Februar 2020 ab 19:06 Uhr (WH am Donnerstag, 27. Februar ab 10:06 Uhr):
Nach gut fünf Jahren und genau 60 Sendungen geht am Samstag die letzte Ausgabe von „Geographical Imaginations“ on Air. Der Kulturgeograf Kevin Fox beendet damit seine „Radio Expeditions into the Geographies of Everything and Nothing“ – zumindest vorerst.
Die ersten 3 Staffeln, oder seasons, wie er sie nennt, produzierte Kevin hier in Salzburg im Studio B der Radiofabrik. Die 12 Sendungen der season four kamen aus Tansania und Kuba, die Sendungen Nummer 49 bis 60 kamen aus Philadelphia, USA.
Im Radiofabrik-Jubiläumsjahr 2018 gewann er mit seiner Sendung „A Year in Studio B“ den Radioschorsch für die beste Langsendung zum Thema „Was soll das?„.
„This radio essay program presents a geographical – or spatial – way of thinking about the relationship between ourselves and the worlds we inhabit and co-create. Each episode takes a theme or, perhaps, a question and explores it through an interactive dialogue with different texts and voices.“

Wir haben viel gelernt und erfahren in seinen Sendungen und nicht zuletzt unser Englisch verbessert. 😉 Zum Glück können wir alle 60 Sendungen nachhören.
Danke Kevin!
Er schreibt uns zum Abschied: „This show gave me the space to explore some ideas that had been floating around in my head. Lots of fun! Best wishes to all of you!
