Rebroadcast of BICS Media Lab Marold II Program

Marold IIWe’ve had many requests to re-broadcast the program on the Marold II disaster produced by the students at the BICS Media Lab. So, we’ll do it twice more this weekend — Saturday at 4:00 p.m. and again Sunday morning at 9:00 a.m.  If you’ve not heard it yet, you will want to tune in.  The program is a very thoughtful recounting of that tragic event put into context with a number of interviews including a very special one with Lawrence McDonough. The students did an outstanding job putting this program together–which included extensive research on the event (resulting in the recovery of additional Marold II artifacts for the BIHS), conducting oral history interviews, writing the script, recording narration and using a digital audio editor to craft all of the audio content into a polished presentation.

Shield You can hear the premier broadcast this weekend on Saturday afternoon at 4:00 p.m. and again Sunday morning at 9:00 a.m. by tuning in WVBI at 100.1 on the island or worldwide at www.wvbi.net.
