Adam Hyde and Honor Harger founded the online art collaboration r a d i o q u a l i a in Australia in 1998 as a means of experimenting with the intersections between broadcasting, music, sound and new media. It aims to open an electronic portal into the eccentricities of antipodean radio space. One of r a d i o q u a l i a 's primary motives is to explore the notion of using online broadcasting media to critique geographical distance as an impediment to creative collaboration. r a d i o q u a l i a have developed their own software and hardware tools, including «The Frequency Clock», a multi-platform system which enables users of the Internet to timetable streaming media content for broadcast on the internet and on FM radio or broadcast television.
Honor Harger is a writer, designer and format artist, interested in the integration of different types of media within creative, communication, technological and art contexts.
