Matthew will present an artist talk on his discoveries about using computers and radios.

During this hour-long session Matthew will guide, discuss, and demonstrate how to use computers, specifically the affordable and accessible Raspberry Pi, to receive and send radio signals.

He will explain how to set up a web-streaming box to broadcast localised sounds to the internet and show how easy it is to get live streaming up and running with OBS.

Additionally, Matthew will cover SDR radio setups, allowing listeners to tune into any radio band worldwide, and demonstrate slow scan TV (sending pictures by radio), spy radio channels, how to use a Raspberry Pi to interrupt broadcasts on FM, and using a Raspberry Pi computer to create an offline local network for data sharing.
