This is like a delve into the history of the future: it’s a (badly recorded) hour of phone-in about science and science fiction with William Gibson, David Brin and Anne Simon. And it’s from 1999, when everything looked rather different. And it seems to be the first recorded citation of Gibson’s “the future’s already here, it’s just not evenly distributed” quote. MP3 here.
A blog of Radio 4. Not about Radio 4 but of it. We point to the bits we like, the bits you might have missed, the bits that someone might have sneakily recorded. Other speech radio from around the world will no doubt find its way here too.
Of course, one day this might turn into something else, maybe a new way of curating speech radio, or maybe it won’t.
Your hosts on this not very wild ride are Steve Bowbrick, Russell Davies, Dan Hill, Bobbie Johnson, Roo Reynolds and James Bridle. Drop us a line with your thoughts, unless you wish to complain about continuity announcers and their accents.
