The station, WGXC, will be both a community and transmission art media project. free103point9's in-progress Transmission Art Archive project will map a genealogy of Transmission artists, works, exhibitions, essays, and more in support of the Transmission Art Genre. The first phase of the Transmission Art Archive will be a publication released in late 2009. The second phase of the project will be an expansive online resource and network in which artists are encouraged to self-identify their work within the context of Transmission Art practices.
