Radio Anywhere, Literally.

It seems old fashioned in today’s world of online music offerings, but local radio used to be a big deal. Do you still listen to radio and would like to broaden your options beyond what your car radio or boombox can pick up? The solution is here thanks to a Dutch group: Radio Garden. Being able to listen to any radio station from around the world just by spinning the globe and picking one randomly is a pretty cool thing. If you’re more focused you can also pick any part of the world you’re interested in and see what’s available. Highly recommend.

“Radio Garden is a non-profit Dutch radio and digital research project developed from 2013 to 2016, by the Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision (under the supervision of Martin Luther University of Halle-Wittenberg’s Golo Föllmer), by the Transnational Radio Knowledge Platform and five other European universities.[1] According to the service, the idea is to narrow the boundaries from the radio.[2] It gained popularity in 2016 when it surpassed the 8,000 registered station mark and, as announced at The Radio Conference 2016: Transnational Encounters, went viral.

Yes, there’s an app. Haven’t used it and don’t know anything about it.
