Episode 5: Fourth Model Colt Derringer

<p>James Harlot begins today's broadcast with an <span class= "kY2IgmnCmOGjharHErah" style="-webkit-line-clamp: 3;">exposé on the War on Bugs (significantly more present in Wretched City than the infamous federal War on Drugs). This War on Bugs could be interpreted as a reaction to bugkind's war against mankind. He continues with Current Events and ends with bittersweet confessions and what is essentially a love poem to a hand-gun. Or is it, really? </span></p> <p><span class="kY2IgmnCmOGjharHErah" style= "-webkit-line-clamp: 3;">Dedicated to the living dead.</span></p> <p><span class="kY2IgmnCmOGjharHErah" style= "-webkit-line-clamp: 3;">Written, acted, directed and produced by DAMARIN.

Episode 4: Interview with a Man Twice Dead - Harry Lime

<p>Wretched City Radio resumes after a painfully long hiatus with a mesmerizing interview - fictional radio host James Harlot interrogates fictional criminal-entrepreneur/philantropist-rogue/conman-and-delight Harry Lime, a character born from the imagination of Orson Welles - featuring many questions about Orson Welles himself. Written, directed and edited by DAMARIN - acting by DAMARIN and the ghost of Orson Welles/Harry Lime. Music by Anton Karas.</p> <p>The voice of Harry Lime was generated using Artificial Intelligence. The textual replies of Harry Lime were partly generated with a different Artificial Intelligence software, but required being rewritten on account of the linguistic and esoteric particularities of the character Harry Lime. </p> <p>Check out Orson Welles' and Alan Towers' production of The Lives of Harry Lime (US) / The Adventures of Harry Lime (UK) - a 1950s radio drama that acts as a prequel to the 1949 film The Third Man, featuring Welles, directed by Carol Reed. Glory to the golden age of the radio drama, and may all fiction podcasters learn from it!</p> <p>This episode was the practical dimension of David A. Marin (DAMARIN)'s MA dissertation at the Caragiale National University of Theatre and Film in Bucharestr - <em>Orson Welles și „drama radiofonică” din secolul XX – fuziunea mediilor artistice: radio-ul, între literatură, teatru și film</em> (Orson Welles and the radio drama of the 20th century - the fusion of artistic mediums, radio, between literature, theatre and film). </p>
