ARTxFM HISTORY

ARTxFM takes a new approach to an established medium. Nikola Tesla first demonstrated radio transmission in 1892. Encouraged by the intrinsic usefulness of the medium, news, music, and religious programming quickly dominated the broadcast dial and still holds it tight. Since the invention of radio, over a century ago, artists and intellectuals have had little access to the American airwaves.

Futurists in Italy, Dada artists in Switzerland, and Antonin Artaud in France all conducted experiments in the art of radio broadcasting. Financial and social constraints, however, prohibited them from fully liberating radio from its more "useful" informational and commercial transmission purposes.

Now, well into the 21st century, the Internet has become an adequate provider of music, news, and religious programming, radio may finally find some space for self-reflection and artistic growth.

ARTxFM recognizes and amplifies the untapped creative potential of radio broadcasting. In 2011, ARTxFM was incorporated as a Kentucky not-for-profit radio station with an emphasis on broadcast arts and a commitment to experimental programming. ARTxFM is currently governed by a Board of esteemed community arts leaders who each bring unique skills, assets, and interests to this new and unprecedented project.

ARTxFM applied for a federal licence to broadcast on the FM dial in November 2013. We look forward to expanding our global programming include a terrestrial signal that will provide extensive coverage within the Louisville metropolitian area.
