We’re back dear listeners and this time we’ve decided to go all Modernist on you with an episode dedicated to the Dada art movement! Join us on this weird and wonderful Dadaist trip through inter-war Europe and New York as we explore avant-garde art, sound poetry, performance, photomontage, and the mystery of the world’s most famous urinal.
