0590 Years of Radio...Last year on the 14th November 2012 it was 90 years since BBC had been broadcasting. To celebrate this at 17:33 every BBC radio show across the world was stopped and a song which was composed by Damon Albarn from the Blur was played across all the stations.

The song was 3 minutes long which was being played and broadcasted from the London Science Museum by Simon Mayo. This was first time since 1922 that something had been simultane-ously played over all BBC stations.

The song was called 2LO calling. 2LO Calling began with the chimes of Big Ben and featured the first ever broadcast from the 2LO transmitter and the number one song at the time - Three O'Clock in the Morning. The three-minute piece also featured messages from listeners around the world along with the sound of the blackbird and skylark, com-mentary from the Cameroon election and the ubiquitous BBC pips. Albarn also chose to include a famous quote from philosopher Bertrand Russell:"Love is wise, hatred is foolish." It featured in Morse code, the series of clicks, tones, dots and dashes historically used to trans-mit information.

The song was called 2LO calling because the 2LO transmitter made the first broadcast - from the British Broadcasting Company as it was then known - on 14 November 1922.

More than 55 BBC radio stations came together for Radio Reunited. It is estimated the broadcast could have reached up to 80 million listeners.

Range of products...

for an exhibition

01Branding...Branding of an exhibition is very important, this will give the aesthetical look to the entire exhibition and be the basis of all colour schemes and promotional material. The branding communicates the exhibition to the audience.

02Promotional material...Promotional material is the second important element for an exhibition. The promo material gets the word out for the exhibition and promotes it to get people involved and to come along to it. The style and design of this element is also very important to get correct and to target the audience you want to appeal to.
