  • A Brief History of Radio Broadcasting in Africa
    A Brief History of Radio Broadcasting in Africa Radio is by far the dominant and most important mass medium in Africa. Its flexibility, low cost, and oral character meet Africa's situation very well. Yet radio is less developed in Africa than it is anywhere else. There are relatively few radio stations in each of Africa's 53 nations and fewer radio sets per head of population than anywhere else in the world. Radio remains the top medium in terms of the number of people that it reaches. Even though television has shown considerable growth (especially in the 1990s) and despite a widespread liberalization of the press over the same period, radio still outstrips both television and the press in reaching most people on the continent. The main exceptions to this ate in the far south, in South Africa, where television and the press are both very strong, and in the Arab north, where television is now the dominant medium. South of the Sahara and north of the Limpopo River, radio remains dominant at the start of the 21St century. The internet is developing fast, mainly in urban areas, but its growth is slowed considerably by the very low level of development of telephone systems. There is much variation between African countries in access to and use of radio. The weekly reach of radio ranges from about 50 percent of adults in the poorer countries to virtually everyone in the more developed ones. But even in some poor countries the reach of radio can be very high. In Tanzania, for example, nearly nine out of ten adults listen to radio in an average week.

Radio with Pictures: Radio Visualisation in BBC National Radio Richard Berry University of Sunderland Abstract. Radio has always had pictures. The ones the listener created in their own minds and this is, most of us agree, one of the medium's greatest strengths. However, radio is increasingly consumed on a digital platform (such as DAB Radio, Digital TV, a mobile device or a computer) on devices with screens, rather than a dial. This creates a problem for radio because when we look at the device we are listening to we see a screen that often lacks rich content. The process of Radio Visualisation is about filling this space. This papers focus, though, is the other ways in which radio is visualising itself online in a process that deploys transmedia storytelling techniques that build relationships with the audience, builds brands and helps broadcasters to tell stories in ways never before possible. In the spring of 2011 2.84 million British TV viewers watched a radio programme on their Televisions. They were tuning in via interactive television (or the 'red button') services to watch the BBC Radio One breakfast presenter Chris Moyles attempt to break a world record for the longest radio programme. The BBC installed a series of fixed cameras in the programme’s regular studio at the BBC's Yalding House studios, with added 'roving' cameras to allow the presenters to broadcast from other parts of the building and a cafe across the street.

  • An Introduction to Internet Radio
    NB: This version was updated with new Internet Radio products on 26 October 2005 (see page 8). INTERNET RADIO AnInternet introduction to Radio Franc Kozamernik and Michael Mullane EBU This article – based on an EBU contribution to the WBU-TC Digital Radio Systems Handbook – introduces the concept of Internet Radio (IR) and provides some technical background. It gives examples of IR services now available in different countries and provides some guidance for traditional radio broadcasters on how to adapt to the rapidly changing multimedia environment. Traditionally, audio programmes have been available via dedicated terrestrial networks broad- casting to radio receivers. Typically, they have operated on AM and FM terrestrial platforms but, with the move to digital broadcasting, audio programmes are also available today via DAB, DRM and IBOC (e.g. HD Radio in the USA). However, this paradigm is about to change. Radio programmes are increasingly available not only from terrestrial networks but also from a large variety of satellite, cable and, indeed, telecommunications networks (e.g. fixed telephone lines, wire- less broadband connections and mobile phones). Very often, radio is added to digital television plat- forms (e.g. DVB-S and DVB-T). Radio receivers are no longer only dedicated hi-fi tuners or portable radios with whip aerials, but are now assuming the shape of various multimedia-enabled computer devices (e.g. desktops, notebooks, PDAs, “Internet” radios, etc.). These sea changes in radio technologies impact dramatically on the radio medium itself – the way it is produced, delivered, consumed and paid-for. Radio has become more than just audio – it can now contain associated metadata, synchronized slideshows and even short video clips.

Public Service Broadcasting in Transition: A Documentary Reader Abstract This is a book of documents, comments, and cases that has been prepared, at the request of the European Institute for the Media, for the use of government officials and citizens interested in strengthening public service broadcasting in transition societies. In this book we try to provide a small chest of tools and background information that will be of assistance. We start, in Chapter 1, with an overview of some of the general principles of public service broadcasting, and include pertinent comments on each of them. Here, as throughout the book, we concentrate on issues of governance and financing, with some attention as well ot issues surrounding programming. In Chapter 2, we turn to current issues in the European-level debate, partly from the perspective of European expectations and standards that are employed in evaluation and accession processes.

  • The Public/Private Tension in Broadcasting the Canadian Experience with Convergence
    The Public/Private Tension in Broadcasting The Canadian Experience with Convergence John D. Jackson & Mary Vipond Canada’s Broadcasting Act designates Canadian broadcasters, public and private alike, as a single system to which the Act and all subsequent regula- tions apply. The Act is based on the premise that the airwaves are public property, but allows for the existence of a private sector within the whole (Canada, 1991). Thus does it signal: (1) the tension between the public good and private gain; (2) the fact of a particular relation between private and public broadcasting in Canada; and (3) the possibility that the relationship may simultaneously address issues of national sovereignty and benefit capi- tal accumulation. These themes will be placed in the context of Canada’s economic culture and the current process of corporate convergence. Though convergence is presently taking place on several fronts – across media plat- forms, within media platforms, and across distribution technologies – we concentrate on the first of these and on the implications for the public remit. The convergence of broadcasting, production, distribution and print raise two important issues. First there is a very real anxiety over the possibility that cross-media convergence will reduce the variety of voices expected from an open broadcasting system (public and private alike). Secondly, there is concern that national and regional public broadcasting units may, in the end, carry the principal responsibility for ensuring a multiplicity of voices. Indeed, and somewhat ironically, national public broadcasting may well be the sole defence against monopoly. Convergence within specific media platforms, across media platforms, and across modes of delivery has reduced the sheer number of independent and competitive players in the market.
