Radio/Archive: Research Presentation

This research presentation will focus on the newly launched Insight Development Grant Project to be conducted in collaboration with CKUA Radio, Canada’s oldest public radio station. The CKUA archives, both at its downtown Edmonton location and related archives of RTV held at the U of A Archives, offer valuable media and textual records of the station’s role in shaping diverse creative cultures regionally and nationally.
The talk will open up questions about the place of literary radio in the study of culture, methodologies for listening in radio studies, and protocols for preserving, describing, and activating radio literary archives. Archival findings of materials that document the University of Alberta’s long standing contributions to the development of literary radio will also be shared.
