The tiny world of Armchair-Astronaut. Autumn 2006

We at Armchair Astronaut are delighted to announce the arrival of 'Psychic Radio: Special edition' volumes 1 and 2.

Each is a two disc set comprising freshly burnt copies of our fantastic Psychic Radio pod-casts, and a full length DVD-R with film and animation of macabre natural splendour by Ben Abbo. Each features one of Wireless's classic releases, 'Terminal Broadcast Station' and 'The End of Summer.' Snippets of these films can be found under the video page of this site.

The pod-casts are an ingenious amalgamation of material available in some form or other from our catalogue, plus otherwise unreleased material from the archives.

The pod-casts are available free for a limited period of time, then as a new one comes online, the earliest comes off. They will then only be available as a CD-R bought from the catalogue.

Armchair Astronaut are currently researching suitable venues or spaces for a live performance by Under Mother Bungalow, details will be posted when we get them.

Armchair Astronaut collaborator and performance artist Katie Etheridge will be presenting The Hollow Lady at the Coastal Currents festival in Hastings on the afternoon of the 23rd September.

The Hollow Lady literally opens herself up in an unsettling exploration of inner space in which the audience become implicated in a bizarre spectacle of examination where boundaries between scientist and specimin are beyond fluid. Take a tour through the Œwindow on within¹ to find out what lurks in the void between spine and skin. With soundscape by Armchair Astronaut.
