IC Radio AGM - WEDNESDAY 4TH MARCH, 5PM
by IC Radio 10 Feb '20

10 Feb '20

Hello my radio brethren, It's been a wonderful year with you all so far! As we reach the end of this term, we approach the election of our NEW COMITTEE TO DRIVE THE DIRECTION ICRADIO ONWARDS AND UPWARDS! The IC Radio AGM will be held on Wednesday 4th March at 5pm in the Media Hub, West Basement, and is your opportunity to elected to the IC Radio committee to make cool stuff happen next year!!! REGARDLESS OF WHETHER OR NOT YOU ARE RUNNING, YOU SHOULD COME TO VOTE YOUR NEXT COMITTEE SO WE CAN MAKE SURE WE HAVE THE BEST TEAM FOR THE JOB (additionally there will be free pizza xxxx) The following positions are up for election: Station Manager Treasurer Secretary Head of Training Head of Programming Head of Production Head of Publicity Head of Music Social Secretary Technical Manager IT Manager Station Manager In ultimate control of everything that happens at the station, and a great position to be in if you want to implement some change! Your job is to make sure everything runs smoothly, and support all the shows and comittee for anything they need! If you've got the drive or ideas to make IC RADIO incredible, we would love for you to run! Email me (zoe.chu16(a)imperial.ac.uk) if you have any further questions xxx Treasurer As Treasurer you gain a different and deeper understanding of the society, you see its foundations, get to know its health and what the possibilities are. I have personally learned a lot from the role as treasurer and been able to enjoy some varied opportunities offered by radio such as presenting gigs, using the radio studio, mixers, etc… As Treasurer expect to be an active member working together with the station manager to keep the society running. Your major responsibilities will be to manage claims during term time, improve upon the budgeting for the coming year and guarantee all licenses are paid for on time to keep the station up and running. Email Raul (raul.adriaensen17(a)imperial.ac.uk) to find out more about this role. Secretary The role of secretary involves organising committee meetings, taking and publishing minutes of said meetings, booking rooms etc and generally being the organisational hub of IC Radio. Should you be elected Secretary and achieve any one of these things, you will already be doing infinitely better than me. Email Fraser (fraser.may17(a)imperial.ac.uk) to find out more about this role. Head of Training The Head of Training role is fundamental to keeping IC Radio alive and sounding good. As head of training you will often be the first person people meet in IC Radio, and it is your job to organise training sessions and ensure that everyone who uses the studio understands how to operate the various pieces of equipment housed within it and keep them dry! Email me (zoe.chu16(a)imperial.ac.uk) if you have any further questions xxx Head of Programming Head of Programming is responsible for managing the IC Radio schedule. While this principally involves assigning slots to shows once their presenters are trained in the studio, this can also involve booking time for recording sessions and ensuring that popular slots are used regularly. Email Emem (ememobong.umoh16(a)imperial.ac.uk) to find out more about this role. Head of Production Responsible for maintaining the recording studio as well as coordinating recording sessions and workshops in collaboration with Live Music Soc and MusicTech horizons. Being in charge of a room and being able to do whatever you want with it is super fun and being in charge of a "business" can only be good on your CV but this doesn't need to be a big position, you can put in as much time as you want. This position does not require technical knowledge of the equipment (honestly) and involves making money. Email Lancelot (lancelot.blanchard18(a)imperial.ac.uk) to find out more about this role. Head of Publicity Get the word out! Raise awareness of IC Radio. That’s your job. There’s no point to radio if no one is listening to it. As head of Publicity you need to advertise IC Radio. Design posters for radio events, banners for shows, merch for society members and generally telling everyone you meet that there is a great student radio based here at Imperial. Whoever is elected to this role has the power to end the dreaded "Wow, we have a radio station?" response to IC Radio-related conversation once and for all. Email me (zoe.chu16(a)imperial.ac.uk) if you have any further questions xxx Social Secretary Who said sitting in a room talking to yourself for long periods of time was antisocial? As social secretary you'll have the opportunity to bring together a network of people who love listening to and creating great radio. Email Thanos for more information (t.athanasiou(a)imperial.ac.uk) Technical Manager IC Radio has a lot of tech (microphones, headphones, miscellaneous recording gear, you name it, we've got it lying unloved somewhere in West Basement), and the Technical Manager is responsible for making sure it all works and is up to date (this can vary from getting custom crocodile slipmats for the turntables to buying new microphones for the studio). Email Tejasva (tejasva.malhotra17(a)imperial.ac.uk) for more information on this role. IT Manager The IT Manager is responsible for making sure the PCs, servers, and any services that run on them (e.g. our website) that IC Radio relies on are working. This includes keeping them up to date, troubleshooting and fixing issues, as well as thinking of ways to improve them. Email Fraser (fraser.may17(a)imperial.ac.uk) to find out more about this role. Head of Music The sustain play list you (are supposed to) hear when there are no shows on is curated by the Head of Music, who is responsible for ensuring that the music selection is up to date and enjoyable to listen to. They are also responsible for looking after IC Radio's vast collection of CDs and vinyl. Email me (zoe.chu16(a)imperial.ac.uk) if you have any further questions xxx Should you wish to nominate yourself for a role, send an email saying which role you wish to be nominated for and a short manifesto on what you would bring to the role to icr(a)ic.ac.uk before the AGM (Friday 29th Feb, 5PM). Note: it is also possible to nominate yourself for a role during the AGM itself. Feel free to email me if you have any questions about the AGM, and look forward to seeing all your beautiful faces there xxxx [photo] Zoe Chu Station Manager, IC Radio icr(a)ic.ac.uk<mailto:icr@ic.ac.uk> | SW7 2BB [https://s3.amazonaws.com/images.wisestamp.com/icons_32/facebook.png]<http://www.facebook.com/icradio/?fref=ts> [https://s3.amazonaws.com/images.wisestamp.com/icons_32/twitter.png] <http://twitter.com/IC_Radio> Keep up to date with all things radio: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/ICRadioMembers/ WhatApp: https://chat.whatsapp.com/Gggx0cxXjSyF5dbA8wY0CE Mailing list: https://mailman.ic.ac.uk/mailman/listinfo/icradio-announce Buy membership: https://www.imperialcollegeunion.org/activities/a-to-z/radio

Hello my lovelies, Big phat apologies for my radio silence 😉😉these past couple weeks - but we are back and ready to get groovy!! RADIO STATION UPDATES: The issues with the radio has been heard, we are working to sort them both out!! Keep letting us know of any problems/improvements, is super helpful for us in maintaining the station when you guys flag it up early - so KEEP IT UP! * CARD ACCESS - I've called Estates Operation and flagged up the faulty card reader, so will hopefully be fixed early next week (it's also the union so don't worry I will continue hounding them until it's done). Until it is fully fixed, the plan is to: * Manually override the card access (i.e. the door will be left propped open xxx). If this is not the case when you come to record, move to Step b! * Go via the side door through the shared space. If you don't have access to the shared space, find someone in West Basement who does (would recommend either the music production or felix office) as there is often someone there!! * DODGY RADIO STREAM - our resident tech wizard (Fraser May) has been made aware of the situ and will come back with updates when he has a look at it !! We will do our best to keep you all informed on the situ !! * RENTING EQUIPMENT - if you want to borrow any equipment from our storage cupboard. Please follow as below: * EMAIL/MESSAGE ME - so we are kept in the loop for what we need etc. * Ask for Key 18 from Beit Security (the cupboard key should be attached) * Write down your details on the sheet on the cupboard! As always, any major problems throughout the week - drop me a message and I'll do my best to respond ASAP! IC LIVE SESSIONS: WE ARE BRINGING BACK IC LIVE SESSIONS (whaAAAAt)! First LIVE BROADCAST will be on Sunday 1st December, time TBC. Me and Lancelot have been working hard alongside Live Music and ICTV but it would be great to get as many people involved in the project as we can! There's a few jobs that would be siiick for people to get involved with !! Some potential areas of interest: 1. Finding new artists to play on the show 2. Promoting the show (making show logo, slogan, market the sh!t out of it) 3. Presenting (asking the hard-hitting questions, helping the artists show their best side) 4. Tech help (helping Lancelot w/ making sure the system is working etc) If you have any ideas/ want to get involved, drop me a message xxxx INDUCTIONS: Broadcasting/Podcasting Workshop Wednesday 20 November – 12pm West Basement Learn to use our brill broadcasting station and have a quick insight into the skills of a podcaster!

Weekly Email #3
by IC Radio 20 Oct '19

20 Oct '19

HeYOOO radio people: What a banging time arts night -- it was brilliant seeing you guys at pre's and hope you enjoyed the massive night of music !! Membership and groups!! If you want to join ANY of the induction sessions to use any radio facilities, you MUST BUY MEMBERSHIP!!! It’s £12 for the whole year, and will give you access to all radio facilities!!! Please please please buy ASAP so we can run more events and make sure we can afford to maintain all of our lovely equipment. Buy membership here: https://www.imperialcollegeunion.org/activities/a-to-z/radio To keep up to date with all things radio, join our Facebook members group and WhatsApp GC here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/ICRadioMembers/ https://chat.whatsapp.com/Gggx0cxXjSyF5dbA8wY0CE *PSA - EATING, DRINKING AND SMOKING ARE STRICTLY BANNED FROM THE RADIO STATION. ANYONE FOUND DOING SO WILL IMMEDIATELY HAVE THEIR ACCESS REVOKED.* HEAD OF MUSIC As I briefly mentioned on the IC radio WhatApp chat, we are still lacking a Head of Music! (What is that, you ask???) The sustain playlist you hear when there are no shows on is curated by the Head of Music, who is responsible for ensuring that the music selection is up to date and enjoyable to listen to. They are also responsible for looking after IC Radio's vast collection of CDs and vinyl! This year we'd really want to kick the sustain playlist up-a-notch (aftering discovering that we have INTERNATIONAL LISTENERS ??) Some ideas we'd had were: * Different playlist for each day (have a kinda vibe per day etc.) * Have a couple hours / day where we exclusively play good tracks sent in by up-and-coming artists * Making spotify playlists of our sustain so people can find the music that they like These are just a couple suggestions, but it would really be up to the Head of Music the direction of our sustain! The Head of Music would then recruit a few people onto the Music Team to sort out said playlists, but the Head's role would be the overall direction and ensuring everythig is correctly uploaded onto Rivendelle. We have yet to decide a day for the EGM, but will let you guys know ASAP. Have a think whether or not you'd be keen to run for the role! Once again, drop the FB group a post or Whatsapp chat a message if you have any problems! Happy broadcasting and see below for upcoming induction sessions!
