Report about new uses of morse code for sound art or for anyone.
Meant for July 2, 2015, but can run any time.
Morse Code " the signals of dots and dashes that served as the first transmissions in the days before wireless " is still around, though not employed much these days. In 2003 the World Radio Conference stopped requiring Morse proficiency for amateur operations on frequencies below 30 MHz. The FCC used to require it in the U.S. too, but now few master the dots and dashes. The Radio Arts website in the U.K. currently features sound artist Iris Garrelfs Morse Code Choir first aired on Resonance 104.4-FM London in March, 2015 for the Borealis Festival Bergan and Radiophrenia CCA Gallery Glasgow. For those who do not know Morse code themselves, there s a website https://epxx.co/morse/ where you can type in any sentence, like this one, and hear it in Morse code.
