If you’re a public broadcasting nerd, join us for a live taping of The Pub, the weekly podcast from Current, public media’s trade publication.
In this edition, sound designers Alex Overington of Q2 Music’s Peabody Award-winning podcast Meet the Composer and Jonathan Mitchell of Radiotopia’s The Truth reveal where the bloops and bleeps come from — how they fabricate the digital squeaks, scrapes and slurps that pervade today’s cutting-edge narrative audio. Also, audience members will play a game Ragusea is calling “Auto-Tune the Radio,” in which contestants will have to identify famous public radio voices that he has subjected to rather undignified digital processing.
Come for all that and more, plus a chance to meet and mingle with NYC’s public media community!
