The Union of Time Thieves is back this month like a rocket straight outta Flavortown. We'll have two union members at the wheel this month, live-mixing tracks from some of America's most beloved spectacle factories — reality TV shows.

In this episode, our ideologies will thrash the airwaves like uncontrollable freight trains. Sarah Palin will squirmish the squirmishes // we'll plug fag face into your earholes // mystic musical tidings will wash onto your conscious shores.

This month, the Union of Time Thieves takes a look at some top 10 lists of items — Top 10 List of 16 Spectacular Items, Top 3 Found Vinyl We Haven't Listened To Yet, etc. We're using the tools of reflection to make radio, so expect the unexpected!

The Union of Time Thieves explores the idea of creative spacemaking with saxophonist Patrick McCulley. Creative spacemaking is a concept that applies to how people make space for art/music in their lives or how a physical creative space is made through performance.

This month's transgression from the Union of Time Thieves is filled with audio acrobatics and John Kennedy Toole's most beloved curmudgeon, Ignatius J. Reilly. While the book, The Confederacy of Dunces, isn't a strictly Situationist text, the societal condemnations of its antihero are provocative as we contrast this fictitious Medieval hesternopothia with Johan Huizinga's influence on the Situationists from his work The Waning of the Middle Ages — as depicted in a new translation.

Live mixing of audio artifacts — this may be our first episode doing so!

COMING SOON. The Union of Time Thieves brings you John Ralston Saul's 1995 lecture, entitled "The Unconscious Civilization." He argues that society is only superficially based on the individual and democracy. Increasingly it is conformist and corporatist, a society in which legitimacy lies with specialist or interest groups and decisions are made through constant negotiations between these groups. The paradox of our situation is that knowledge has not made us conscious.

COMING SOON part of what makes time thievery so important is its creative potential, and we celebrate beauty in creative pursuits with Moorea Masa, Allison Hall, and Margaret Wehr. It's live music, and music to live by!

In the great tradition of the Situationist International's method of detournement, The Union of Time Thieves brings you a collection of corrected material from the 1950's. Join us as we negate the orignal meaning of these media artifacts to create new, subversive messages. Listeners will not only experience the jamming of culture; they'll succumb to the unintended avant garde dronescapes of shortwave radio at the same time!
