Dingus #2

Episodes 4, 5 and 6 of this landmark radio series.

"It was a shape around something else, like everything..."

Dingus is a six-part radio drama produced by CBS and recorded at the height of the 1943 flu pandemic that swept through Hollywood. Denied of a marquee cast and blighted by a curious obsession with the object that drives its narrative, this innovative and formally-reflexive oddity disappeared almost completely without trace. In 2010 artist Mike Cooter set out to find and rehabilitate this elusive artefact, initiating an 12-year journey that culminates in the re-emergence of Dingus.

Cast: John Dingus: Mitchell Mullen. Male Narrator: John Christian Bateman. Female Narrator: Alexandra Metaxa. Lieutenant Johanssen: Colin Stinton. Veronica Marden: Christy Meyer. Finnegan: Cory Peterson. O’Rourke and Elmsdood: David Menkin. Peterson: Joseph Balderrama. Frances: Kelly Burke. Written, directed and produced by Mike Cooter. Editor and assistant producer: Jim Whelton. Composer: Jobina Tinnemans.

Commissioned by Resonance FM. Supported by The Jerwood Trust, The Elephant Trust and The Henry Moore Foundation.

The Invention of Liberty; or Just Noise

Radical Translations is an interdisciplinary project which explores the role of translation in the spread of radical, democratic ideas during and after the French Revolution. The students translated the manifesto during a series of workshops led by the poet and translator Cristina Viti.

They also interpreted and adapted the text to the stage with the help of the dramaturge Simon Hatab and the French theatre collective La Phenomena, in a dialogue with the work of Jean-Jacques Rousseau and the philosopher Jacques Rancière, as well as the music of Mozart in The Marriage of Figaro (1786), culminating in a performance at Sands Films Studio in London.


An audio essay and documentary which follows a group of students from King’s College London as they translate The Manifesto of Equals (1796) by Sylvain Maréchal from one language, time and context into another, but also to the stage in the presentation of Performing Utopia. Written and produced by Patrick Bernard, it explores how politics, theatre and translation transform our understanding of the world, and reflect a desire to make words and ideas manifest. For more information visit Tenement Press who are publishing an anthology of radical translations, An Anarchist Playbook, in January 2024.

Asphyxia: The "Idiote", the Library Wifi and the Suppressed Safe #19 - Caduceus

Sideways research continues apace... This instalment of Asphyxia sees the return of a mysterious polymath possessed of unspecific 'inside information'.

Chit-chat about data security ensues (covertly recorded, ironically). Following this, the narrator bluffs his way past the security cabin at the Midland Road entrypoint to the British Library's goods yard, where a bin-dive yields an unknown writer's diaries, discarded by the library for uncertain reasons.

Meanwhile, the use of tin-foil to eliminate electromagnetic interference is trialled upon the narrator's Zoom recorder which is susceptible to 50Hz hum.


Originally commissioned in 2022 as part of Radio Art Zone's tapestry of 22-hour radio productions, this project by Daniel R. Wilson is re-presented here in episodic form. Asphyxia hacks the antagonising systems which thwart and forestall projects (its name also acknowledges the asphyxiating atmosphere of long-form radio when made by a single person). It is a damaged would-be radio documentary exploring the Narnia of restricted access material and gatekept employment.
