Screaming Into the Void

Radiolab

Radiolab is on a curiosity bender. We ask deep questions and use investigative journalism to get the answers. A given episode might whirl you through science, legal history, and into the home of someone halfway across the world. The show is known for innovative sound design, smashing information into music. It is hosted by Lulu Miller and Latif Nasser.

In August we performed a live taping of the show from a theater perched on the edge of Manhattan, overlooking the Hudson River, overshadowed by the wide open night sky. Three stories about voids. One about a fish that screams into the night – and the mystery of its counterpart that doesn’t. Another about a group of women who gazed at the night sky and taught us just how vast the universe is. And a third about a man who talk to aliens – and the people who tell him he’s putting human civilization at risk by doing so. Finally, we turn back to Earth with the help of a reading from Samantha Harvey’s hit novel <a href="https://bookshop.org/p/books/orbital/19729720" target="_blank">Orbital</a> (<a href="https://zpr.io/RNi4sY2JVKxK" target="_blank">https://zpr.io/RNi4sY2JVKxK</a>) performed by the artist, actor and podcast host <a href="https://www.wqxr.org/people/helga-davis/" target="_blank">Helga Davis</a> (<a href="https://zpr.io/TKGuzzDFnVjN">https://zpr.io/TKGuzzDFnVjN</a>). What does it mean to stand on the edge of a void, and what happens when you scream into it, or choose not to?This episode was originally produced and developed in front of a live audience by Little Island, Producing Artistic Director Zack Winokur, Executive Director Laura Clement.
