- **Event Name**: Listen Club #31: 'Transmissions' with Hannah Kemp-Welch
- **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 21 Jan, 2026 at 07:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Note - 7pm doors for a 7.30pm start!

Radio is not a sound or a station - it’s a range of frequencies on the electromagnetic spectrum. Radio waves are natural phenomena, harnessed by humans. We did not ‘invent’ them, or ‘discover’ them. They are more often bursts of energy emitted by solar storms and lightning, than controlled transmissions from radio towers. The air is full with tweaks, whistlers and ‘sferics’, which may have travelled to you from thousands of miles away, bouncing off the ionosphere to traverse the Earth’s curvature. 

In this session, we’ll listen both to the Earth’s natural radio emissions, and to works by artists who have used the materiality of radio waves as an artistic medium. 

Hannah Kemp-Welch is a sound and radio artist exploring listening methodologies. She is completing a PhD on this topic with CRiSAP. Hannah builds DIY devices sensitive to electromagnetic waves produced by natural phenomena, a practice featured in her BBC Radio 4 experimental work All Under One Magnetosphere. 

She is a member of the feminist radio art group Shortwave Collective, with whom she delivers workshops, performances, broadcasts, and publications. Recent projects include Living Radio Lab (2023), an installation for Struer Tracks biennial in Denmark, and Plural Radio-Listening (2022), published in Bodies of Sound: Becoming a Feminist Ear (2024).

About Listen Club

A programme of unusual sound-works, soundscape composition, and music from the present and the past, chosen by Sound Art Brighton artists and invited guests.
Listen club is all about coming together to listen to music with the possibility of sharing impressions and casual discussion afterwards. Listen Club hopes to provide a counterpoint to the quick paced personal consumption of music with a more patient shared experience; a deep listen, together, in order to foster community.

Curators will guide the experience - briefly discussing the details of the selections and providing background on the music and artists chosen. We aim to present a variety of styles and listening experiences that may include anything from long duration singular sound works to a series of work on a particular theme. On average we will listen together for 45min to an hour, with time for discussion and conversation afterwards.

Once a month, 7-9pm, at The Rose Hill
