Radcliffe and Maconie - Tuesday - with Thomas Dolby

Mark Radcliffe continues to hold down the fort and today he's joined by musician Thomas Dolby.

Born Thomas Robertson, teenage experiments with an assortment of keyboards, synthesizers and cassette players earned him the nickname "Dolby". That same fascination later drove him to become an electronic musician and multimedia artist whose hits included She Blinded Me With Science [1982] and Hyperactive [1984].

The advent of the web enabled Thomas to take his experiments with music and technology further and the release of his latest album, A Map of the Floating City, is accompanied by an online game in which players explore a fictional map and can haggle for merchandise and downloads.
