Transmission Times

Arts Special for the Transmission Times

Since mid-March Katie Semro has been making the podcast Transmission Times using audio diaries from people around the world about life during the pandemic. She’s planning a special episode with the voices of Performing Artists & Artists, and asking artists of all kinds to do one recording answering 4 questions. It’s a fairly easy process and wonderful feeling to participate! Are you interested in answering the questions?

All you need to do is record your answers to the questions below on a smartphone and email them to Katie at ksemro@gmail.com, or call 847-354-4163 and leave your answers as a voicemail.

• What impact has this pandemic had on your life?
• What role is your art playing for you during this time?
• What influence is the pandemic having on your art?
• What are you missing the most?

Please send your recordings in by September 15th. Thank you!

Details

When you record please include the date, where you live, and what kind of artist you are, including your name is optional. The stories will be anonymous on the podcast. 

 

If you are using a smart phone Apps like Voice Memos for iPhone and ARS for android work well. Then email the recording to Katie at ksemro@gmail.com — this can usually be done right from the app. 

Typically people record for 3 – 6 minutes, but the recordings can be as long or short as you want. Don’t worry about mistakes Katie will edit these out, just speak from the heart. 

Katie hopes to collect a lot of responses and will fit as many as she can into the podcast, and the podcast episode may be broadcast on the radio. All of the replies will be saved in the Transmission Times Archive to document this time for future generations. 

Katie is an Independent Audio Producer and appreciates your help with this project! If you have any questions, technical or otherwise, please contact Katie at ksemro@gmail.com.
