"Offstage, On-Air" on WTJU 91.1 FM with Brendan O'Donnell
WTJU 91.1 FM, Charlottesville, VA — August 2, 2026
An episode of WTJU’s Offstage, On-Air, hosted by Brendan O’Donnell, featuring Brian Lindgren, composer and technologist, on completing his PhD in Music Composition and Computer Technologies at the University of Virginia and on developing the EV — a digital-acoustic string instrument, part electronic viola, part computer, that combines bowed string gesture with real-time digital synthesis, neural-network AI, and spatial sound design.
The conversation also looks back at Lindgren’s farewell Third Rail concert at The Stage at WTJU before his relocation out of state.
