🎵 Play transition jingle: move_2.mp3
Protocoller: Initiate Content Protocol.
🎵 Play background Music: background_static.mp3
Protocoller: Announce the TIME. Performer: It is [TIME] and you're tuned in to Protocols for an Active Archive on Radio Worm. We're now going to listen to... What are we going to listen to? Navigator: Oh my, we're flying through a rich part of the archives right now, a Content Funnel! Performer: Woah, it's beautiful here. What's that!?
🎵 Play small wormhole preview Snippetofworm.mp3
Navigator (20 seconds into the track): Wait, let me tune the receiver.
Protocoller: Navigator, explain channel tuning. Navigator: Moving through the archive, a lot of content passes the Ether. Channels let us focus on one piece of content at the time. I can move the channel up [MOVE CHANNEL UP, PLAY OTHER FILE, WAIT A FEW SECONDS], or down [MOVE CHANNEL DOWN, PLAY MUSICAL PIECE, WAIT A FEW SECONDS]. What channel should we tune in to? Protocoller: Let Ground Control decide. Performer: Roger that. Ground Control, what channel do you want to listen to? I'm receiving 3 channels.
🎵 Play Connecting to the ether track Connecting_to_the_ether.mp3
Present PAD with the 3 channels:
(UP) Get Lamp
(BASE) 1000 Fragments
(DOWN) The Art of Asking Your Boss for a Raise
If there are no clear instructions in the PAD:
Navigator: I'm not getting any readings from Ground Control. Protocoller: The only way to get through a Content Funnel is by getting to the very end. Performer: Oh no, this is bad. Navigator: Ground Control, do you copy? Please indicate your preference of Channel.
🎵 Play Connecting to the ether track Connecting_to_the_ether.mp3
Repeat the above if necessary.
Otherwise, when a channel preference is received:
Navigator: Copy that Ether, [moving channel UP / STAY / DOWN]. Remember: we can change the channel at any time!
CHANNEL UP: Get Lamp -->
CHANNEL BASE: 1000 Fragments-->
CHANNEL DOWN: The Art of Asking Your Boss for a Raise -->
Return here after a piece of content has finished, and you're not redirected elsewhere:
Performer: Navigator, where to next?
If Ground Control tried to get to impossible CHANNELS (i.e. UP from CHANNEL UP or DOWN from CHANNEL DOWN):
Navigator: During the Content Funnel, we received some ambigous and chaotic readings from Ground Control. I suggest we re-establish the communicative protocol.
Otherwise:
Navigator: Let's move to the End of Broadcast Protocol. Redirecting in 3... 2... 1...
