A Journey through Hell with L’Inferno and Montopolis

On October 19th, I had the privilege of attending a performance over 700 years in the making. I don’t think anyone can fully prepare to see a medieval depiction of hell in a century-old film accompanied by a driving synth score.

CDs by the people, for the people: Pledge-a-Thon’s Kickoff Event!!

--When I heard that the first event in WIUX’s yearly Pledge-a-Thon was a CD burn, I rushed to check it out! I didn’t know exactly how it would work, but as I walked into the Collins Commons, it quickly became clear. $5 later (donated to help keep our beloved station up and running), I was standing in line.
