Airspace: Networks, Ontology, Ether (2005)

Deleuze's "image of thought" as it applies to radio and radio art. The talk frames me giving a laptop performance with radios and a low watt transmitter. This mp3 file is recorded at a higher level than the video on the left, and I believe it also has more of the q and a at the end.
