I'm now writing/editing this post at 09:07 on 12th September 2023. Originally this post marked the first ArtsLab episode, my first RedShift Radio broadcast. From that point, and for the next two-and-a-half years I blogged my ArtsLab programmes here on this blog. On Sep 10th, 11th, 12th 2023 I decided to create a separate ArtsLab Archive blog instead (like I did with ArtSwarm), so copied those posts there and removed them from this blog. You can find a link to the ArtsLab archive on this blog somewhere.
This post remains as a reminder of what those posts originally looked like. At some point after I left RedShift Radio the ArtsLab playlist was removed from MixCloud. RedShift became a community podcast-creation hub rather than broadcasting 'live', and at that point stopped being a radio station. The RedShift people felt more like a family than a work team, and all of my memories and experiences of ArtsLab and RedShift were happy. It was an honour to be part of Crewe's and Nantwich's smallest and best radio station.
