For 24 hours starting at noon on August 31, Scotland's Galloway Forest will be the site of a rather one-of-a-kind concert, courtesy of a self-proclaimed "noise terrorist" and the forest's two artists-in-residence. Their plan is to set an FM transmitter up in the middle of the forest, which, BTW, is the UK's first "dark sky park," that will broadcast music from various artists once only. Really. That one time only. Visitors will be given small radio receivers with headphones, and paths will be lit up at night.
The artists behind the concert are looking for compositions to fill the hours. There's an email address at the end of the article, in case you're interested in donating a piece: http://www.wired.co.uk/news/archive/2013-06/21/galloway-forest-radio-broadcast/viewgallery/305399
