Series Two - Bonus Episode
<p><span style= "font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"> The project began as a collaboration Margaret Burns, a teacher at the Dawn De Loas Correctional Centre in Sydney, and Kate Pinnock, the producer and presenter of the weekly “Jailbreak” radio show on 2 SER. Kate ran a series of workshops for a small group of volunteer inmates. After creating edited content for “Jailbreak” the group was keen to further develop the skills they had acquired so Margaret and I developed the idea of producing a complete radio program to support the case for NSW Corrective Services developing of a prison radio service. Ina series of workshops the group developed the script for the program and recorded the content. A digital audio workstation was brought in for the final couple of sessions so that the guys could participate in the editing process. The finished product was presented to a meeting of senior Corrective Services staff and was well received. Unfortunately the proposal to develop a prison radio service was not taken up.</span></p>

Series Two - Episode 6
<p>This episode features recordings from the Compulsory Drug Treatment Correctional Centre at Parklea, near Sydney. The Red Room Company delivered their highly successful "Unlocked" prison poetry programme over a period of three full days. The outcomes included a print anthology, a CD of audio recordings (spoken word and two hip hop tracks), and a presentation to the weekly community meeting attended by all participants and staff at the centre. Jails are noisy places with hard surfaces that are not conducive to high quality audio recording so the workshop and presentation sections are not ideal. However they do convey a sense of the engagement and enthusiasm displayed by the participants.</p>
