Of Communes & Drag Queens


This week's show will include two brief, unedited interviews. In the first half of the show we will hear from Kaya, a Richmond high school student who has spent two summers living and working at the Twin Oaks Community between Richmond and Charlottesville, VA. The community celebrated its 40th Anniversary in 2007 and was originally started by some psychology grad students inspired by B.F. Skinner's novel Walden Two.

Sandwiched between, we'll be hearing something new from Sidestep Complex along with my regular broad mix of music, audio collage, soundscape & live YouTube mixing.

In the second half of the show, just after midnight, I will play the first of my interviews with Richmond's famous "Dirtwoman" a.k.a. Donnie Corker according to his Wikipedia entry. Donnie has lived in Richmond for all of his 60 years and has established quite a reputation for himself, most recently he ran for Mayor in 2008. Be sure to listen in! The poster for his run for Mayor is adapted from a rare 1993 calendar shot by Alice McCabe and made in Richmond by the now defunct Hamlet Productions.
