Radio Otherwise is an ongoing artistic research project. Together with a wide network of radio enthusiasts, Kate Donovan, Monai de Paula Antunes and Niko de Paula Lefort explore the plurality of experiences involved in radio-making in connection to ecological thinking.

Radio Otherwise pro­motes radio's emancipatory potential, inspired by pirate, free and community radios, as well as the MiniFM movement (Kogawa), and supported by decolonial and feminist literature and practices. It recognises the recent turn towards bioacoustics and the connected practices of listening as ways to re-connect with nature, and brings listening together in a constellation with ecologies and cybernetics in an attempt to carefully and critically move beyond the human/nature dichotomy,as well as to deal with messy boundary-crossings in order to recognise situated relationalities with/in place. They seek dialogical relations with environments through the development of media as well as knowledge sharing/making processes, encouraged by the boundlessness of radio's artistic and cultural expressions. In this way, listening and radio-making can also be methods to sit with uncomfortable relationalities, the relentlessness of the Anthropocene.
