The Red Room Epic Project
Created in 2003, this recording includes 30 interviews and accompanying poems by emerging Australian poets under 35 years of age. Each poet was commissioned to write poetry for national community radio broadcast and online. Poets were interviewed and an audio epic poem was crafted. This project won the prestigious 'Best New Innovative Radio Program' at the 2002 National Community Radio awards run by the Community Broadcasting Association of Australia. It was broadcast nationally on radio and is now available as a CD by contacting The Red Room Company.
