Where has the time gone? For this edition, Odd Girl Out visits the seaside town of Whitstable for its Biennale, sampling art installations and performances, dining on mystic chips and dodging vengeful seagulls.

Finally! A new podcast to share. This one was a walk through the new Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park undertaken last summer with urban planner Dr. Carolin Schröder. Among the highlights: bouldering, a water play area and the thorny question of urban regeneration.

I am just starting to write my dissertation, so am unlikely to do any new shows for awhile.
But, I have not been idle. I regularly post old shows to Mixcloud, and they link to playlists on here, so you should still have a "new" show from me every week.Val Phoenix, scribehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00621970358271076463noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3627575903769117728.post-81772390444824143472014-02-27T21:37:00.000+00:002014-02-27T21:37:08.361+00:00Odd Girl Out ELR4

This was last week's My Summer special on Radeq Radio's Summer of '12 series. I was meant to broadcast up to sunset at 19:49, but it actually stopped at 19:40. Nonetheless, I managed to cram in some field recordings, Pussy Riot trial testimony and loads of summer- and sun-themed music. I will upload the recording once it's edited.
