ABOUT US

KDRT 95.7 FM is grassroots radio from Davis, CA, airing an eclectic mix of music and public-affairs programming. A project of nonprofit Davis Media Access, KDRT streams worldwide via KDRT.org.

IMPLOSION is hosted by Nick Saloman, front person of The Bevis Frond. Born and raised in London, England, Nick started buying records as a small child in the late 1950s and began going to gigs and playing in bands as a teen in the late 60s. IMPLOSION is simply an hour of Nick playing the music that he loves (psychedelia, rock, folk, beat, jazz, soul, punk, and more), with a bit of chat thrown in for good measure. Nick says: "If I like it, then there have got to be a few other people who will too.

Davisville, Sept. 22, 2025: Useful but dull information + humor = attention

Mon, 09/22/2025 - 5:30pm | Bill Buchanan

Cow, with Floppy, from video.png

You’ve got information. People need to hear it. It’s useful ... and it’s dull. This circumstance is a common problem for people who work in communications, such as today’s guest, Mark Deamer. One way to draw the disinterested is humor, if you get the balance right, which is why we open this week with Floppy and Cow. They’re a couple of screwball characters — well, Cow is deeper than that — that Mark helped create to present basic messages around tech and cybersecurity at UC Davis a few years ago. They won a couple of awards from a university tech trade group.

Mark, a Davis lifer who moved to town when he was 3, is a designer and illustrator by trade, has designed stage sets for local theater, and has created interpretive illustrations for locations and clients ranging from Davis Central Park to the Cache Creek Conservancy. He’s one of those people in Davis whom you might not have met, in other words, but you might have seen his work. We talk about it all — design, art, where ideas come from — today on Davisville.
