Dear friend/intrestee,

long time no DFM NewsLetter, although there's so much we
wanted to tell you! Running this station takes so much
realtime that we most of the time have to drop the theory:)

Next to some new programs, we want to draw your attention to
the SPECIAL 'Next Five Minutes' weekend broadcast(s) happening
in the weekend of 12/13/14 march 1999. Read on!


01-01-99 00:00 (CET) MARKED 1 YEAR OF REGULAR DFM WEBCASTING!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A whole year we have been broadcasting every weekend live
following our online program schedule, mostly we did start
much earlier and would stop much later:) Next to the regular
weekend we tried to serve as much live signal as possible,
in which we succeeded, according to our telephone-bill.

There were many network jams and live broadcasts coming from
festivals, exotic locations, peoples homes and other studioos
which added a lot to the special atmosphere which makes DFM
DFM. The operators had fun, the technicians endulged, the
regulars regularly got enchanted and visitors we're suprised.
In short it was a great year! Take a look at the guestbook to
see how people react! And while you're there,leave a message!

LIVE BROADCASTING TIME EXTENDED
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
These new cool programs have been added recently, which
increases our regular broadcasting schedule to minimal 28
live hours every weekend.

FRIDAY:
  * RIDDER RADIO ; 19:00-22:00 CET
        Live from the Ridder Salon (talk),
        by Willem de Ridder & friends
  * WRECK THIS MESS ; 23:00-24:00 CET
        Pyschotopographies & Auditory Derives,

  * TRENDKILL ; 02:00-04:00 CET
        Electronic Body Popping, by Godhead

VERY SOON LIVE ALL WEEK!?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We're working on getting a cable-modem installed which means
that we have to pay only a small fee to be online 24 hours a
day, untill now we have been doing all this on a dial-up basis
because that was the only way possible. Last month we received
a telephonebill of Hfl.1300.-- (about US$ 650), that's a whole
month-income to the one who is paying the bill! To be honest
with you, this whole thing untill now has been paid only by
this person. Please please please, support him (DFM) where
possible! Because so much practical work to be done there's no
time to get into some decent fund raising, so here's an appeal
directly to you/your organisation: SUPPORT DFM!

NEXT 5 MINUTES SPECIAL WEEKEND
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
During the weekend of 12/13/14 march 1999 the 3th
international conference on tactical media "Next 5 Minutes"
will be held in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. There will be many
signals coming from this event full of lectures, workshops,
forums, demonstrations, performances, films/ videos. There
will be several webcasts (A/V), FM_radio and television
broadcasts which will interact where possible.

Troughout the conference DFM will:
- broadcast a mix of all of the availlable media
- have interviews and jam with conference visitors
- demonstrate DFM webcasting as a continuing workshop
- present the DFM website live on big screen/speakers,
  while being in broadcast from there. Interact!!
- create interaction between our listeners and the event

Also DFM will:
- host friday/saturday/sunday-nights multi-channel jams
- experiment with an inhouse developped multi-channel
  multi-media monitor to easily ZAP between all availlable
  audio and "video" channels and to receive Small News Flashes
  about where the action is.
