FREE THOUGHT FM - Published 2022
Free hard 170 page. (NO MORE COPIES AVAILABLE). Free online and PDF verions are available on links below.
These Include texts and illustrations marking the completion of FREE THOUGHT FM at The Douglas Hyde Gallery of Contemporary Art 2019. Limited to 200 copies and distribted for free.
Rather than simply mapping the project, this book invites key guests, including geographer Gerry Kearns, educator Kathleen Lynch, Liam Wegimont of GENE-Global Network Europe and architectural historian Ellen Rowley, to expand upon the
issues that most concern them: how class and education has shaped, and continues to limit, exclude and prohibit, young people and adults’ fulfilment and futures. Delving into FREE THOUGHT FM, Rachel O’Dwyer considers Phelan’s longstanding use of radio alongside its history as “an idealised public space”, as well as reflecting on transmission and sound waves themselves. Finally, looking back on the project, artist Sarah Pierce reflects on access and equality of knowledge, recognising that we are all agents of change.
