Another uncollectable radio podcast! On Art and Mayhem, Lucazoid interviewed Spat n Loogie, creators of new!shop at This is Not Art festival.

From the Spat + Loogie website:

Audiences are ushered in to new!shop by a life-size virtual spruiker and warmly encouraged to take on the role of customers. The well known norms of supermarket shopping are undercut by subverting ‘customers’ expectations using intense spatial manipulations and a multiplicity of corrupted products. spat+loogie have researched the tricks of the supermarket trade and discovered that music, lights – even smells – are often specifically designed to boost profits by your local shop.

The interview is in two bits:
-the first bit, (plus the discussion between Lucazoid and Daz on air as well as a short sound recording made live in new!shop) is here [8mb, about 9min].
-the second bit, a continuation of the interview, is here [2mb, 5 min].

There’s a bunch of photos of new!shop Newcastle, here.
