So – a yardcast is a spontaneous home\/studio broadcast. It’s is a phase-shift in braodcasting, what the emergence of interent radio was to FM stations.
\nBut unlike the (relatively!) clockwork rotas of Rinse and Sub FM, the yardcast format is less like a radio show and more like a live event. It may be dissembodied, but what the ‘event’ of the yardcast loses in physicality it gains in universal accesiblity. We’re not limited by budgets, venue curfews, commercial concerns or geographic location. Everyone can join in this party.
\nUnlike the institutional regidity of station broadcasts, a yardcast slots perfectly alongside tweets and status updates into the real-time continuous, ongoing stream of discourse.<\/p>\n
That’s the pompous, but nontheless important part over.
\nThe rest is a big all-day party you’re all invited to.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
