    Basslines from the Broken Earth

    Road Concerts: Rim of the World
    Powered by solar panels, salvaged tech, and fungal-root amplifiers, the mobile FM station transmits a mix of electro, Detroit techno, Afrofuturist funk, political manifestos, and ecological poetry. As cars pass through the signal zone, they can tune into voices from the wormhole—dispatches from alternate futures and Earth’s buried memory: part rave, part ritual, part warning.

Basslines from the Broken Earth: Wormhole Transmissions from the Rim of the World

At 3:03 AM on the summer solstice, our in-studio receiver lit up with a strange new frequency—not our music, but a pulsing transmission filled with future weather reports, fungal poetry, and glitching voices repeating the sentence "Highway 18. Mile marker * garbled signal * Rim of the World."

"Highway 18. Mile marker * garbled signal * Rim of the World."

Our SDR display flickered, went black, relit, and then locked onto a voice that sounded like rust and rain. "The root-net is live. Tune in. The Earth is speaking. You are a caregiver of my signal now."

"The root-net is live. Tune in. The Earth is speaking. You are a caregiver of my signal now."

We packed in the van and raced to find and re-broadcast radio transmissions from a wormhole at the Rim of the World.

Here's what we know so far.

Beneath the cracked asphalt of Highway 18, a pine grove began a slow and silent transformation. Parched by the dry air and stressed by the relentless heat, the trees turned to the road's toxic leavings—metals from brake dust, batteries, and discarded electronics for sustenance. Their roots absorbed these elements and fused them with fungal threads into a glittering system of earthen circuitry. Over time, a giant hidden living underground capacitor formed—part plant and part machine.

Then, on the lightning-charged summer solstice night, the roots ignited with neural electricity. The ground split. Time sheared. And at the forest's edge, a wormhole opened—pulsing with Earth's subharmoics and spilling out futures no longer willing to wait for our arrival.

We think our crew at KDZU caught the wormhole's transmissions first as the wormhole broadcast was stepping on the signal of our transmitter. Forever paranoid (for good reason), we thought it might be Federal Agents and eventaully figured out it was a transmission from Earth and from what seem like future timelines.
