This stream aims to gauge current work taking place in radio-audio-sound
research in Australian and overseas. It looks to explore the personal and
production implications of radio and audio practices in an era of social
networking and the internet. Some questions that could be discussed include:
* how has the turn to Œlistening¹ impacted on research and practice in
relation to audio? 
* What new histories of audio are required to trace the way in which the
mobile phones, home-based mixing, podcasting and webcasting have developed?
* what is the relationship between screen and audio in personal mobile
devices? 
* how is the radio broadcasting adapting to new technologies? What is the
future for digital radio?
* What are the futures for Community media? Public broadcasting? Commercial
radio? 
* what is the impact of podcasting on the industry and audiences.
