23:00 - 00:00 Electronic Frequencies 
STEIM Radio #11 features music by performers who have played at STEIM's annual June 18th concerts.
When I arrived at STEIM, the institution suffered from an age-old reputation of being closed and elitist, which was contrary to my own experience. This was a place that thrived by opening it's door to anyone who was interested in experimenting with sound and technology. The challenge then became 'how to interest people who weren't interested in experimenting.'
We had to build a new audience that were not just connoisseurs of experimental music, but of people who were curious and open to new experiences. We shifted our core activity to facilitating and supporting this community through workshops, meet-ups, and residencies. And June 18th, which started as a rebellious action day against government cuts, but then later turning into the memorial day of our previous Director, became an annual mini-festival to showcase the diverse energy that flow through STEIM.
Over the last 4 years, the June 18th program has featured a wide variety of artists spanning across the globe and freely crossing over genres. Every year has been memorable, reminding me each time how grateful I am to be working in such a unique space surrounded by such creative people.
