anything new-ish?


 
what is somewhere north?


somewhere north gathers together some of my work in radio journalism and media development. This site started in 2003 after I stumbled across an ancient website belonging to Dave Sag in which he admonished me (in 1994) for not having a website of my own. I was going freelance in 2003 and finally it seemed like a good idea. So this is an advertisment for what I can do, if you're in need of a radio journalist or media development trainer/manager. I also put up some photos and notes and so on.

who are you?

My name is Michael Dwyer.

who have you worked for?

Since mid 2004 I've worked Sayara Media and Communication in Afghanistan as a radio trainer and media development project manager.

Before I was a freelance radio journalist based in Singapore and Malaysia. I filed for the BBC (TV News24, World Service Radio, Radio Wales, Radio 5Live) CNN TV and Radio, ABC (Australia) Radio National and Radio Australia, CBC Radio News, RTE Ireland Radio 1, Radio New Zealand and MediaCorp Radio and Press in Singapore.

how can i contact you?

Email mdwyer@va.com.au or call +93 79032410. But unless it's really urgent please check what time it is in Kabul.


anything else?

Thanks to Virtual Artists for webhosting.
