The Island

A tropical broadcasting facility of questionable legal standing.

operation summary for public record

01
PalapaGoose is an electronic music artist. He plays trance and progressive with some melodic techno, wears a 3D-printed goose helmet and handles everything else himself, with mixed results.
02
Coconut FM is his radio station. It broadcasts around the clock between live sets.
03
Honk Therapy is his weekly live set. It is presented as group therapy, for reasons management has never put in writing.
04
All of it operates out of Palapa, an island of disputed existence with a radio tower no one admits to building.

Dispatches

Everything that has happened on the island, typed by the intern.

The Garage: Head office. Also the studio, the print shop and the storage for everything that did not fit in the studio.
The Waiting Room: Always open. Technically a frequency, but patients report it has chairs.
The Treatment Room: Where the weekly session happens. The rest of the week, the door hums quietly.
Coconut FM Tower: Already here. Reaches further than a tower its size should. The light blinks in a pattern nobody has written down.
Sunset Lagoon: Shows off when the light is right. Prescribed for viewing: twenty minutes, no phone.
Deep House Bay: The water is deeper than the charts say. So is the playlist.
Coconut Storage: Reserves: stable. Inspected daily. Counted twice on Sundays, for reasons of ceremony.
Emergency Broadcast Point: For emergencies. Has been used once. Nobody says when.
The North Beach: Closed. It was always closed. Do not ask about the north beach.

The goose · artist, management, finance: Founder, broadcaster and finance department. Certified Honk Therapy Practitioner. The certificate is framed. The framer is not named.
The intern · clinical documentation: Has never been seen. The coffee is always warm. Types everything, including this.
Reception · patient intake: Answers the chat. Keeps the emergency songs behind glass. Files honks by weight.

The Emergency Honk Button: Big, red, real. Nobody fully knows what happens when pressed. Pressed daily anyway.
The Bassline Regulator: Keeps the low end at treatment grade. Hums in agreement with itself.
The Mood Stabilizer: One dial. It goes from “fine” to “better”. There are no other settings.
The Signal Analyzer: Confirms the signal is strong. Has never been asked a follow-up question.
The Patient Notes: A notebook the goose writes in during sessions. Contents unknown. Handwriting: wing.
The Certificate Wall: Certified Honk Therapy Practitioner · Emotional Bassline Specialist · Licensed by the Coconut FM Board of Feelings. One of them is real. The clinic will not say which.

The signal: Some nights, between songs, the tower receives. Nobody transmits to it. The goose listens, writes something in the patient notes, and does not comment.
The light: The tower light blinks in a pattern. The pattern has never repeated. The intern stopped logging it at entry four hundred.
The warm console: When the goose arrived, the equipment was warm, as if recently used. This is not discussed during broadcast hours.
The tide: The tide has never come in on the community wall. The sea appears to be aware of the wall. That is all anyone will confirm.
The coffee: The intern’s coffee is always warm. The intern has never been seen making it. These two facts are believed to be related.
