Story
A slighty wacky look at my own ephemera collection.
The Persistence of Ephemera was produced for the 2008 TCF ShortDocs Challenge: Radio Ephemera.
Producer
Ceil Muller considers herself a public radio "lifer." What began in an Antioch College work co-op at Pacific's WBAI-FM in New York turned into a lifetime of trying to capture the ephemeral nature of sound. She has worked for National Public Radio, the National Council for the Traditional Arts, and KQED, among others. Her own The Kiss and the Dying won a 2003 Gracie award from American Women in Radio and TV.
Extra
Radio Ephemera challenged any/everyone to produce a short audio work inspired by two books from the Prelinger Library in San Francisco, and featuring the voice of a stranger.
The Persistence of Ephemera
Inspired by: Trailer Ahoy! / The Facts of Life for Teenagers
Stranger: a kid on an answering machine message
