The Ivory Tower
The Ivory Tower broadcasts jazz, world music and traditional folk from the dizzying heights of the fourth-and-a-half floor of the University of Winnipeg. Legendary entertainment impresario Kelly Hughes has been called “staccato and laconic” (poet Méira Cook), “so funny I peed myself” (CBC’s Shelagh Rogers), “off-putting, rude and tasteless”, and “kingpin to mavericks and musicians.” The Ivory Tower is 90 minutes fortified with the best music you haven’t heard, anecdotes, lies, recipes, and sparkling conversation with one of said mavericks/musicians, each and every week.

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.

The Radio Art Hour
Welcome to “The Radio Art Hour,” a show where art is not just on the radio, but is the radio. “The Radio Art Hour” draws from the Wave Farm Broadcast Radio Art Archive, an online resource that aims to identify, coalesce, and celebrate historical and contemporary international radio artworks made by artists around the world, created specifically for terrestrial AM/FM broadcast, whether it be via commercial, public, community, or independent transmission.
