Radio Local, so close you can smell it. Following a work-in-progress trial at WATCH OUT 2016, Hunt & Darton are coming back big to launch Radio Local, a new local radio station which is so local you have to be local to us to hear it. We need you! 24 hours, a cheeseplant, and you. It wouldn’t be local without you.
Come build it with us. We love the local chippy that asks how your week’s been, pubs and cafes that provide surrogate families and extensions of your home, people taking pride in where they live, doing things for the community and when it’s noticed that someone is ill...What is local about this place? Over 24 hours, we will get to the heart of it. Performed and edited live, outdoors from Cambridge Leisure square and broadcast live across Cambridge in a take-over of Cambridge 105’s airwaves for the full 24 hours. Cambridge 105 Radio is the Community Radio station for Cambridge. Visit in person, listen online at cambridge105.co.uk or on 105 FM. Commissioned by Cambridge Junction.

An experience for 2 strangers, Splitter is the next track on the album of your life. Listening together, an unregulated social experiment becomes a bootlegged playlist of all the things you say without ever opening your mouth.
Join Francesca Beard, your sham-shaman, on an epic adventure through a wonderland of lies, fictions and Wikipedia ‘facts’. Explore makebelieve in its many forms, from political spin to polite half-truths, to the lies we live by: ‘Capitalism is a meritocracy’; ‘Grandma, I love this cardigan’; ‘Yes, I have read the terms and conditions’.
