Production may be:
Radio
Radio is the technology of using radio waves to carry information, such as sound, by systematically modulating properties of electromagnetic energy waves transmitted through space, such as their amplitude, frequency, phase, or pulse width. When radio waves strike an electrical conductor, the oscillating fields induce an alternating current in the conductor. The information in the waves can be extracted and transformed back into its original form.
Television
Television (TV) is a telecommunication medium used for transmitting moving images in monochrome (black and white), or in colour, and in two or three dimensions and sound. The term can refer to a television set, a television program ("TV show"), or the medium of television transmission. Television is a mass medium for advertising, entertainment and news.
Television
I may be vile and pernicious
But you can't look away
I make you think I'm delicious
With the stuff that I say
I'm the best you can get
Have you guessed me yet?
I'm the slime oozin' out
From your TV set.
Frank Zappa, "I'm the Slime", in Over-Nite Sensation (1973)
Radio
For many people in the future, radio will take the place of an inner life.
Georges Duhamel, In Defense of Letters (1937), E. Bozman, trans. (1939), p. 35
Television
For the first time in television a writer will have the opportunity to let his imagination take him where ever he wants to. The sky is no longer the limit.
