4 x Daily for 27MHz

April 2000 & August 2004

Project Citizens Band, 4 x Daily for 27 MHz was a month long broadcast over CB radio using prerecorded sounds designed to be mood altering. There were four different audio tracks that related to commonly experienced emotions for the scheduled time of day. The audio was transmitted through the CB for a 5-minute duration at the scheduled time, creating a sedative or stimulating effect. There were no voice-overs or songs. The broadcast was amplified to 225 watts to increase the chance for short wave skip and reception over long distances. A container was designed and constructed to house the radio equipment and computer. A portable, 3-piece tripod tower provides support for the antenna. Produced with Whitewalls, Chicago. Sounds created with Ernst Karel. Sounds sampled below are recorded live from a receiving CB with no alterations. Please contact the Intermod Series if you'd like to hear the originals before transmission.
