Net.Radio RAZO
New Live Stream

Today's webstreaming workshop puts Radio Zuidoost on the net.
Jaromil of Dyne.org and Jeremy of ASCII hooked up Radio Zuidoost, a division of local broadcast group SALTO, today as part of a net.radio workshop. This workshop has the ulitmate goal of making connections between radio makers in Southeast Amsterdam with the their respective homelands. Cross streaming-experiments are in the works with radio stations currently streaming from Ghana and Surinam.
 
RAZO streams using a special boot-disk written by Jaromil, containing his custom Linux [dyne:bolic] operating system and his streaming software MuSE. This simple CD-ROM can be booted on almost any PC (or Mac running Virtual PC) with a network and sound card, making it a virtual "swiss army knife" for net.audio.
 
The [dyne:bolic] OS was developed in conjunction with PUBLICVOICE.fm, a self-operated streaming network running only free software that lets you start your own radio in a few steps, using the [dyne:bolic] bootable CD distribution and the Multiple Streaming Engine application.
 
The stream itself is hosted by Freeteam.nl, an informal network of computer and Internet experts working voluntary for NGO's which ASCII uses to host its own webstreams.
