The Meta World Stoopaloop Show
The Meta World Stoopaloop Show is a two hour spontaneously generated sound art program exploring media, culture and chance. It uses randomness and indeterminacy to create an extended “soundscape” that uncovers hidden threads and connections and casts old culture in a new, more relevant light. Simultaneously contentful and pointless, it takes the 3 Rs (reduce, reuse, recycle) and applies them to media content. Sometimes there are interviews.
