DORP Radio
Live (event)
Connecting people at Welcome to the Village and sharing innovation across the planet.
The thought
Using a proven but somewhat outdated medium, radio, to bring a commnity of makers and innovators closer together at DORP, Welcome to the Village 2017.
Objectives
Proving that radio is an awesome way of connecting people and bringing them closer together.
Solutions
We set up a radio studio in a shipping container at DORP. Also, we build a launch where we could interview the participants and visitors, without having to take them away from their projects.
Results
10 days of live radio broadcasted from withing DORP to be heard all over the planet, An average of 60 listeners every day and around 80 happy DORP participants!
What they say
“Thank you all for the entertainment during these 10 busy days!”

Future plans
DORP Radio is currently on hold. A couple of students of the Frisian Design Factory in Leeuwarden were tasked to work on the project, but they decided to work on another part of DORP.
The platform is of course still available online, but no content is added at the moment. Though there are plans in the working to be present at DORP 2018.
