@pluralistic I have a fun mystery for the Cory-nauts.

Don Joyce of Negativland liked to tape Art Bell. I found a show where Art is talking to Whitley Streiber (“Communion”) and taking calls when something strange happens: every 45 seconds, they start hearing a phone auto-dialer.

Art is flummoxed: “Somebody's breaking in on our line…this last half hour is the most puzzling I've ever done on radio.”

I checked the phone tones and the number is: 1-800-468-3445

When Googled, there are no results.

When I see that someone else in the fediverse knows who Don Joyce is, it makes me happy. I listened to his show, Over the Edge, on KPFA from the 80s through the late 90s. When you say you “found a show”, was it an episode of Over the Edge; and was it one of his UFO-themed shows?

You are their archivist! Excellent! I am glad you are doing this. I know most of the Over the Edge shows are on archive.org and I listen to them quite a lot. Are the reels you are archiving now going to be available publicly?
