non-profit organizations around town.
We hope to instigate discussion and de-
bate about all events in our world with
informative and relevant content.
Chickenskin:
Chickenskin music is a collage of folk,
blues, bluegrass, and a few odds and ends
tossed in. On occasion live perfor-
mances from touring and local musicians
are featured.
Requests or questions can be sent via e-
mail to chickenskinmusic@netscape.net.
Spoken word:
Voted the "Best Talk Radio in Houston"
last year by the Houston Press, the spo-
ken word show offers performances
from musicians, writers and poets, to
politicians and random diatribes. The
philosophy on the spoken word show is
to "show" the audience various perspec-
tives through the use of the word. Incor-
porates live readings, interviews, etc.
Shows are often loosely themed.
Chameleonomatapoeia:
an audio zine: an offbeat one-hour col-
lage of sound and spoken word, aired on
KTRU, on a biweekly basis. The zine is
a compilation of spoken literature, texts,
recipes, product labels— whatever
strikes our fancy— expressed in an or-
ganic manner. Participation by students
and other members of the Rice commu-
nity is critical. Each week the zine fo-
cuses on a theme, defined as "a word we
like." Past shows: The Sea, Sugar. Rep-
tile, Down, Sleep. Western, Pickpocket.
If you are interested in submitting to
Chameleonomatapoeia, see "Be heard
on KTRU" on page 2.

newer Garage Rock, Punk. Emo and

music — techno, house, jungle, and a
smattering of IDM (intelligent dance

Aegean:
The Aegean Show features Greek mu-
sic, presented by the members of the
Aegean Club, which is an association of
Greek students from Rice and UT-HSC.
The djs are all club members and rotate

movies, bhangra-rap, Indian American
