> this is anshuman...

> i was wondering, when you had the time, if i could pick your brain a little...
> 
> i'm at SOAS at the moment doing a course called the anthropology of media...and SOAS, rather, a few of us within SOAS, are planning on starting a radio station...the idea being that the station will use SOAS' already critical atmosphere to come up with programming that leverages the ideas of the community and the environment...diverse, exciting, questioning...
> 
> initial broadcasting has already started on http://www.resonancefm.com/ ...which is quite an exciting station in terms of form and content...and by october we should get a licence to broadcast from campus...
> 
> we are envisioning this project not so much as a campus radio...various experiments have failed in various universities here (oxygen in oxford for example)...but more as a community station...provisions have just been made, a year ago, in the uk to licence such small independant stations...
> 
> i was wondering whether you knew anyone in this area, here geographically, that we could meet with/contact...in terms of content and funding...
> 
> a few of the guys i'm working with are involved in the world music/independant music biz and have met with brian eno who has expressed a lot of interest and support...
> 
> i'm writing to people i know to see what other directions they can lead us in...
> 
> thanks for all the help in advance...

> best,
