INFO:

Mercy commissioned blogger, journo and diy media-man Nicholas Holloway to host a podcast during Liverpool Biennial 2010.  He delivered a stonking 10-episode series of arts-chat, faux-reportage, new music and some material from our archive.

"A lo-fi audio arts mag featuring strange noises from The Cooperative basement and beyond"

The show became the unoffical mouthpeice of independent activity during this important festival and opened a new outlet for a range of Mercy’s experimental material.

You can still listen to the podcasts on iTunes

The podcast was a project that realised its potential through social media, and gathered dedicated audience nationally and internationally.
