Daniel R. Wilson: clairvoyant?

Some stories in post-electronic sound making and acoustic hacking with Daniel R. Wilson, also featuring a digressive, highly experimental exercise in inductive spontaneous storytelling enacted upon host William English, with unforeseeable outcomes. Dan will also describe the procedure of post-electronic music which is becoming increasingly resonant in these days of ecological crisis. Tune in whilst natural resources permit. The unforeseeable outcome of the experiment towards the end of the programme was a hesitant exchange with pauses and total failure to guess the intended title of the book. I guessed “Jamaica Inn” but the book in question was “Pop Stars of 1962 (?)”. Even opening the book at a random page only produced Frankie Vaughan. In spite of that, retrospectively, the experiment is amusing with it’s attempt to synchronise Charles Saatchi with a box containing a square beetle and a carnivorous bat.
