broadcastellan: List of blog entries 2005-present

I started broadcastellan at the height of the blogging phenomenon back in 2005. I had not long moved from Manhattan to rural Wales and needed to make a home for myself at a time when my surroundings were strange to me and little I knew or cared for could be readily applied to my dramatically changed everyday.

So, I kept on writing what I had explored in my doctoral study Etherized Victorians, albeit in an increasingly diaristic, less academic style. As the title of the blog is meant to suggest, I imagined myself as a keeper of old recordings, a curator looking after the neglected heritage of radio culture.

Although broadcastellan never quite found an audience, writing it helped me get through a period of disorientation that it did little to shorten. After relocating from country to town and returning to teaching, I had less time and need for such an outlet. Meanwhile, my radio study was published in 2013 under the title Immaterial Culture. Still, I continue broadcastellan to this day.

In August 2020, I migrated the content from Blogger to WordPress in hopes that some of the older entries, which search engines no longer found, would become accessible again.

This is an inventory of all 861 entries in the broadcastellan journal (2005 to present), with links to each entry.
