Listen to this show that takes you from the Boilerhouse to Bowie via the thread of opening up worlds.
Orange Juice for the Ears with âmusical weirdo and visionaryâ (Vice) Beatie Wolfe explores the power of music across Space, Science, Art, Health, Film & Technology by talking to the leading luminaries in each field from Nobel Prize winners to multi-platinum producers and hearing the music that has most impacted them, their âOrange Juice for the Earsâ. Beatie Wolfe is an artist who has beamed her music into space, been appointed a UN Women role model for innovation, and held an acclaimed solo exhibition at the V&A Museum.
Named by WIRED as one of â22 people changing the world,â Beatie Wolfe is at the forefront of pioneering new formats for music that bridge the physical and digital, which include: a 3D vinyl for the palm of your hand; a wearable record jacket â cut by Bowie/Hendrixâs tailor out of fabric woven with Wolfeâs music â and most recently the worldâs first live 360 AR stream from the quietest room on earth. Wolfe is also the co-founder of a âprofoundâ (The Times) research project looking at the power of music for people living with dementia.
