The Night Air Tower

This is an example of the Night Air, Radio National’s remix show. We are using it to discuss how we make our program to help others pitch freelance contributions to our show, to foster the work of radio remixing and open up a critical discussion around this practice.

  2. Night Air Not Art 2

    This is Not Art is the alterna-tentacled experimental arts festival, run annually over the October long weekend in Newcastle NSW.

    This episode of ABC Radio National’s Night Air program is a journey into art and the imagination. We’ll be riding on waves of sound emanating from pic chips, solenoids, bamboo and vocal chords as heard live at festival gigs and performances.

    Our guide is the outspoken libertarian and imagineer Frank Moorhouse. We’ll be hearing excerpts from his National Young Writer’s Festival keynote address. "The 21st century imagination"

  3. Spooky Night Air part one

    It’s spooky time on The Night Air. 8:30pm Sunday September the 13th is our four hundredth edition!

    This is part one of the program.

    The Night Air has been taking ABC Radio National on an imaginative detour every Sunday night since January 2002.

    To mark the occasion we’ve handed the keys to the vaults over to creepmeister Tony Barrell for a spine-tingling signature show.

    Spooky is a word saying more than it means perhaps: skulduggery on the part of MI5, strange apparitions, shivery music and the barefaced dread of the unknown. Some think they have the answers - from Frankenstein to Einstein - Dracula to Arch Obler. Obler was a 1940s radio scaremonger who loved the sound of echoing footsteps and creaking doors - in the days when radio could be really scary. It couldn’t happen now, or could it? Reality check! Erik von Däniken’s special line explaining the ‘unknown’ and Colin Wilson trying to do the same for weird British mysteries, plus the revelations of a former Australian spy said to be "more mysterious than radar".
