OM DENNE EPISODE
Object Piece is a radio drama recorded in a dried out lake bed in 1978. It's visceral and compelling, with incredible acting, and it was made by Erik Bauersfeld, one of the great audio dramatists of the late 20th century.
First we'll hear the story, then we'll learn more about where it came from and how it was made. We'll talk to Randy Thom, whose 50-year career in film sound began with a job recording with Bauersfeld. We also talk with Jim McKee of Earwax Studios, who followed in Randy's footsteps. And we hear from Neil Verma, who teaches audio drama at Northwestern, and uses this story in his classes.
Object Piece was written by Drury Pifer, and directed by Erik Bauersfeld, who also performs the part of Dack, with Gale Chugg as Charles. Sound design and engineering was by Randy Thom, with additional engineering from Jim McKee.
