"The eighth sea is the one we sail above us all" gak's back, live, for 24 Hours of Radio Art, emphasizing the radio part of the art. In honour of the 75th anniversary of Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty and the 100th anniversary of the BBC broadcast of The Shipping Forecast, he weaves old transmissions tied to freely available information with attempts at local nautical news as various bursts of Morse code bounce around throughout with occasionally useful information. In light of recent news, old Venezuelan shortwave recordings bleed in with Greenlandic themes, so prepare to dot and dash the afternoon away. All Morse code, both pre-recorded, programmed live or then performed live with typos by gak except Radio Qatar: Oscar (Shortwave Nights, 2026) gak RADIO FREE EUROPE & OTHER GEOGRAPHIES CHANNEL A1.
