Abstract: The article focuses on Radio Garden, a website and app that allows users to stream radio stations from around the world through an interactive globe interface. Launched in 2016 as an art project, it quickly gained popularity, attracting millions of visitors and currently hosting 37,000 radio stations with 3 million monthly active users. The platform emphasizes the experience of listening to local broadcasts in real-time, fostering a sense of connection and discovery without the influence of algorithms. Users can explore diverse sounds and cultures, making it a valuable tool for those seeking global experiences from home. [Extracted from the article]
