NEXUS-International Broadcasting Association NEXUS-International Broadcasting Association Beyond Global WavesWelcome to Beyond Global Waves, the podcast exploring the power of radio to connect across distances. In this episode, we delve into the unique radio program known as 16 Gwendoline Street. What began as a project using a simple tape recorder from the Isle of Wight, and later moving to Wales, has evolved its production while maintaining its core arts-based format. The program offers a worldwide exploration of music, artists, and poetry, airing via International Public Access Radio (IPAR), primarily using Shortwave frequencies and Internet streaming.
The true impact of 16 Gwendoline Street lies in its reach to a vast global audience. This distinctive program is heard on Medium Wave across parts of Europe and reaches distant listeners via Shortwave in places like New Zealand, Japan, and across the Americas and Asia. Crucially, the use of Shortwave radio, enabled by the public access radio platform provided by IPAR, allows the program to reach regions across the digital divide, bypassing Internet firewalls and local government censorship in countries where freedom of speech is limited. IPAR, a service by NEXUS-International Broadcasting Association, offers this platform for individuals and organizations, promoting free expression globally.
