"The wall serves to document all the contributors to the radio station. It is operating as part graffiti wall, part message center, and part white board. The white wall stands open for you to make your mark: markings about what you are thinking, who you are, and posing questions are added as INPUT.Similarly, OUTPUT will identify what comes out of our collective work. I have invited a different artist to come into the space each week and interpret some of the works and ideas hovering around the radio station. What will be broadcast throughout the museum is seen as an output. Both of the words INPUT/OUTPUT emphasize that our process includes everyone and highlight the understanding that to do an extraordinary work, everyone must be involved in the project as a producer. Everyone has something to contribute. The end result, the broadcast itself, will demonstrate how the process of slowly building inclusive collective illuminates the content of a much wider and deeper relational experience."
