As an ongoing investigation into the function and the practice of publicness radioplateaux asked artists to respond to the concept of publicness as art practice. In a broad paper composed in 2006/7 radioplateaux artists describe the practice of publicnes as one that may be “a revolutionary everyday practice”. We claimed that publicness may open ones practice essentially to a multiple of public and private places and spaces. To a street, gallery, or to a region of being.

The inaugural selection of artist’s responses is hosted online in the Public and Private gallery, including my work ‘thioridazine dream’, an exploration of the private realms of the mind; alongside a work by friend and fellow composer Dennis Báthory-Kitsz.
