CAGE(d) by Richard Boggs ………………………………………….(10:26)
What do prison bars sound like?
This is the sound of my cage.
CAGE(d) is a sonic retelling of my experiences this past year. Charged with a felony, jailed, committed, convicted, and now on probation, it has been a harrowing experience that has left me in a new place, with a new perspective.
From this perch, I was able to reorganize my emotions into this piece.
In the end, I hope you hear this piece and know that we are all caged by one thing or another. That we fight against this imprisonment because that fight is life. It may be the choices we have made or the choices of others, but the problems we face are still our problems. How we deal with those show us who we are. I deal with it through sound. Trust me when I say this was therapeutic. It is rewarding to have something I can touch (hear?) after all is said and done.
E C H O P L E X
I’m safe in here; irrelevant.
Just like they said.
You feel me breathe, I am watching you. I see it all.
I see the hell you have put yourself through.
Oh, the things I could do (if I wanted to).
I don’t need anything at all.
My voice just echoes off these walls.
And I slowly fade away.
You will never ever get me in here.
Eagle or an Osprey
This is an audio documentary recorded by Tyler Magyar, whom after research and planning met his Grandfather for the first time.
In Tyler’s own words:
“So over spring break, I took a trip to Florida to meet my grandfather for the first time, unbeknownst to my father (who hasn’t had contact with him in 30 years and wants nothing to do with him). I recorded some of the trip, interviewed him, etc., and it’s been my intention to make a little radio project out of it.”
Using his audio and an interview we conducted together, this is what I put together.
So, I ask, is it an eagle or an osprey?

Dead Waves : The Body, Media, and Mind……………………..(22:06)
Dead Waves is an audio essay four months in the making.
Using first person interviews and academic sources ranging from the theoretical to empirical, it examines the complex relationship between the body, media, and technology. From the ear phonautograph of Alexander Graham Bell in 1874 to the E.V.P.s (Electronic Voice Phenomenon) of today, the way in which information travels between source and receiver has always involved the body. New studies concerning the brain and sound reveal startling dimensions to this age old process. The findings have wide reaching ramifications for how we view ourselves, our media, and ultimately, reality.
Included are the following primary sources:
Jaiem Fleischmann, EVP Specialist for the L. I. Paranormal Investigators
Louie Fleck, Sound Engineer and Musician
Scott Hirsch, Audio Engineering Society Representative
