FREE THOUGHT FM interrogates the notion of ‘free thought’ in one of Ireland’s major cultural and educational settings, The Douglas Hyde in Trinity College Dublin. It will use the gallery as a public space, a bastion of free expression, conversation, thought and communication, but will also spread far beyond its walls.
FREE THOUGHT FM, the exhibition, begins at 6pm on 14 Thursday March and runs until 25 Saturday May 2019.
At the heart of FREE THOUGHT FM is a 30-day live broadcast of conversations in the gallery between the artist Garrett Phelan, invited FREE THINKERS and members of the public. These conversations will open up the critical and often hidden issues of class inequality and inequality of access to education in the Dublin region.
FREE THOUGHT FM will broadcast LIVE from The Douglas Hyde from 25 Monday March until 23 Tuesday April 2019 on 105.2FM (Greater Dublin area only), and nationally/internationally online at www.freethoughtfm.com.
