Li Yuan-Chia
Paul Martin introduces Li Yuan-Chia's "Time Toy No. 1 Symphony" a home recording Li made of his Time Toy sculptures which are de-constructed chiming clocks that he made into metal reliefs with moveable magnetic points. Li showed at the Lisson Gallery in London in the 60s before moving to Cumbria where he founded his own Museum and Art Gallery. Paul Martin showed at the LYC and helped Li hang his works for "The Other Story" at the Hayward Gallery in 1989.

 Ironic, Sinister, Derivative.
The first half of today's programme features three tracks by the enigmatic Slovenian band Laibach who are closely associated with NSK (Neue Slovenian Kunst) a sort of Nationalist Art movement that advocates Internationalism and issues fake passports (25 pounds each) to citizens of the World. The NSK are deeply "ironic" and pose as Nazis. The Laibach tracks are Get Back and Maggie Mae from Let it Be (Mute 1988) and Sympathy for the Devil (Mute 1988), followed by two stories by Dave Greenberger from The Duplex Planet Hour, Tishaki Miyaki sings The Everly Brothers (side B), Bicephale Ballade by Berangere Maximin, Adrift by The Robert Mellin Orchestra (music for Robinson Crusoe) and finally Traktor Go Go Go by Paul and Limpe Fuchs from the CD Anima Sound, Musik fur Alle.
