New American Radio

It's quite unusual that a long-defunct radio program would garner a new website, but this is the case with the New American Radio (NAR) show. During its 10-year run, NAR commissioned and distributed over 300 original works, including conceptual new drama works, language explorations, sonic meditations, and works that "pioneer new dimensions in acoustic space." On the site's homepage, visitors can peruse a list of full-length works, excerpts, and even a set of meditative essays on the creative process. A good work to start with here is "O Little Town of East New York" by Shelley Hirsch. It's a compelling autobiographical "docu-musical" about growing up in this diverse neighborhood in the 1960s. The site could be used by any number of students studying communication, drama, theater, radio production, and related subjects.
