Matt Albrecht joins Bob Jonkman to talk about the upcoming Nonviolence Day In The Park, WR Nonviolence‘s definition of Nonviolence, and some of the work that goes into putting on a festival.
There’s a false start to the interview at 4m29s, but the real interview starts at 9m21s.
Introduction of Matthew Albrecht and WR Nonviolence. Matt explains what nonviolence is, and how Nonviolence Day In The Park exemplifies nonviolence. Listing some of the exhibitors, musical acts, and activities.
13m21s
History of Nonviolence Day In The Park, based on The Dandelion Festival. Introducing Peter Jantzi and Gary Jones, the other organizers (and Bob Jonkman too). Gary has been the driving force in organizing this years’ event.
17m30
What it takes to put on a festival. WR Nonviolence needs volunteers to help with setup, running the festival, and takedown. Contact Matt Albrecht at info@wrnonviolence.org. Talking about the Kids’ Games at Nonviolence Day In The Park, and the Meditation Labyrinth.
23m02
Matt and Bob talk about the philosophy of nonviolence: Violence is treating people as an object. Animals killing animals, boxers fighting, playing “violent” video games, watching “violent” movies are not considered violence because no-one is objectified. But the monetary system is considered violence, and WR Nonviolence has the Usury-Free Day event in November to address this.
29m50s
How to contact WR Nonviolence: Join the Tuesday night meetings at 7:00pm, an online meeting. Bob summarizes the Nonviolence Day In The Park, and introduces the next song.
Bob reads Sammy Duke’s promo material, and invites him to the studio. If anyone wants to submit music send an e-mail to office@radiowaterloo.ca to get your material in the Radio Waterloo library. Bob introduces the next song.
Welcome to Episode 9 of From the Void – CKMS’ Experimental Music Show
Tonight is a smooth Jazzy trip through the mind. It will feature Frank Zappa, Ikbe Shakdown, Polyrythmics, Deaf by Design, The Budos Band….plus Mandatory Mike Patton
If you are familiar with Into the Void – then you might be prepared for From the Void. I will push the boundaries and conventions of radio every Tuesday night. While preparing for this show I realized that this isn’t going to just be a show about Experimental music, it’s going to be experimental radio. You won’t know what has been pre recorded or is happening live. You won’t know if it is original or if it’s a top 40 band. You won’t know if you are getting older or getting younger. Time doesn’t exist, sound is subjective and taste isn’t even a consideration. The best part about sounds from the void is you won’t be able to hear it…unless you are already in the void.
From The Void is Experimental Music — soundscapes and audio experiments to lose your mind to.
From The Void airs on Tuesdays from 10:00pm to 11:00pm.

Welcome to Episode 7 of From the Void – CKMS’ Experimental Music Show
Tonight has no focus, just great oddities from my record collection. It will feature Radiohead, Tom Waits, Magma, Scott Walker, Secret Chiefs 3, soundscapes by Deaf by Design, NIN and Art Zoyd….plus Mandatory Mike Patton
Words in papers, words in books
Words on TV, words for crooks
Words of comfort, words of peace
Words to make the fighting cease
Words to tell you what to do
Words are working hard for you
Eat your words but don’t go hungry
Words have always nearly hung me

You are going to hear Floyd, the Beatles, Zappa, Brainticket, The Soft Machine, Tangerine Dream and of course, Mike Patton. Pull up a chair and lose your mind with me!!!
