An Incomplete History of Community Radio
2SER's 46 Boxes of Stuff
46 unsorted boxes in a damp basement contained the “archives” of one of Australia’s least orthodox media institutions. Amazingly, from those daunting vestiges, Liz Giuffre and Demetrius Romeo wove a compelling book about 2SER and its colourful people. Also a window onto the world outside as it changes.
