The LOOKOUT FM artist residency, graciously funded by the Mike Kelley Foundation, commissions ambitious, large-scale, original artworks for radio broadcast.
Broad's Cast is a series of 8 radio broadcasts recorded from inside artist Nour Mobarak's body. Each broadcast, Mobarak will present her day-to-day life and regular activities filtered through her body's flesh. Some pieces simply sound the ambient workings of her body's processes, while others include more varied listening experiments. This project culminates at the end of November with a live concert event (TBA), which will feature a performance by Mobarak and a small ensemble.
