Radio has long been considered and studied as a particular technological, institutional and communicative form. However, as a result of the emergence of a media environment characterised by digital technologies, it has become necessary to examine not only what has happened to radio, but also to re-evaluate our understanding of what it was in the first place. This article argues for a media ecology approach to an understanding of radio; one that acknowledges a periodisation of media history, and which considers the form and discourse of radio as a negotiation of affordances and effectivities.
