Cork, Ireland
A pop-up online radio station broadcasting over two weekends during the Cork Midsummer Festival. Radio Solstice is an ear to the Otherworld, receiving sounds from the ‘thin places’ where our world connects most closely with the world of dreams, the afterlife and the unseen. Taking inspiration from Irish folk tales, where a traveller on a country road follows sounds of revelry coming from a magic portal in a hill or a field only to discover the land of the Sídhe, Radio Solstice is a digital receiver to otherworldly frequencies, where things may go unseen – but not unheard.
Radio Solstice is Elinor O’Donovan, Caoilian Sherlock, and John Bosteels.
With valuable support from Cork Midsummer Festival and Cork City Council Arts Office.
