Radio Tsonami is an online radio station belonging to the Tsonami Arte Sonoro organization (tsonami.cl), based in Valparaíso, Chile. It is conceived as a radio experimentation project centered on sound and language as tools for social communication and artistic exploration. It is a space for convergence focused on listening, intimacy, sound, noise, soundscapes, walks, experiments, radio rituals, series, concerts, and more.
Part of its content is generated from the organization's activities, as well as from the annual Tsonami International Sound Art Festival.

workshop :Radio Tsonami : let's build a noise box and let's transmit together.
In this hands-on workshop, we will be building resonant sound devices and streaming live to Radio Tsonami from the new workshop room of KGNU in downtown Boulder. Participants should bring a resonant body such as a cigar box or plastic or wooden casings etc. as well as various items to pluck, shake, scratch to add to the box. We will provide piezo microphones and other material to pull sound from the boxes and to record sounds from the environment. We will hook the devices up to guitar pedals and other signal processing systems such as PureData, Max/MSP, and Ableton to build layered effects. We will then spend some time learning about streaming audio and at the end orchestrate a live improvised concert on Radio Tsonami with our home-brewed instruments.
