Hosted by Michael Connor and Claire Hamilton of Marian Spore, Radiovisual is a new podcast about contemporary art in New York City. The first episode covers Jeffrey Deitch’s appointment to MOCA; the demise of Williamsburg’s Monkeytown; and the 10th issue of Thurston Moore’s Ecstatic Peace Poetry Journal, published as an extended exhibition/publication/performance series at/by White Columns. Notable: “Quick and dirty” reviews of Omer Fast, Patti Smith and Steven Sebring, and Bruce High Quality Foundation’s latest exhibitions. While the cadence was a bit awkward at points, yes—even if it wasn’t, Connor’s script reads like it was written for a print audience—I believe the medium has critical potential. (Oh, and bonus points to Hamilton for going on record over her fascination with Thurston Moore’s teeth. Cute.)
