BBC RADIUS

#BBC RADIO #RADIO ZERO #ACCIDENTAL RECORDS #IDEATION

The project is intending to explore the future of post-radio, not media forms like TV, 
because the consumption of radio is often related to listening as the primary interaction.
The project seeks to think about providing a new media experience for under 35-year-olds who are disappearing from traditional Radio and TV platforms, to use other new online digital experiences more aligned to their interests.
