PRX just put the word out about another round of "reversioning." The basic notion is to help producers and stations take existing but currently out-of-circulation programs and update them for new distribution on PRX.

Last year we conducted the first PRX Reversioning Project and brought back to life more than 20 radio pieces in forms and formats that stations are asking for. Among them:

> Behind the Comedy: Thirty Years of Duck's Breath Mystery Theater

> John Rudolph's Stories from the NYPD

> The DNA Files

> The Return of HEAT (coming soon in 2007)

> Waves of Change, Rivers of Doubt: Global Water Issues and Solutions from the National Radio Project

We know there are thousands of radio pieces like these sitting on shelves and forgotten folders on your hard drive right now that are beyond the reach of stations and listeners seeking high-quality, relevant programming. Much of this work simply needs a bit of polish, an update, some edits to be ready for broadcast or online use.

PRX is soliciting proposals for direct support to producers and stations interested in reversioning existing material for distribution through PRX.
