Delia created music for BBC Radio 4's "RadioVision" schools' programme "Paolozzi" produced by Joan Griffiths.[1]
In January 1971, Joan Griffiths wrote to Desmond Briscoe saying that "Eduardo Paolozzi has agreed to take part in devising and broadcasting a radiovision programme on his work, to be broadcast in Autumn 1971, and recorded in April and May, completed at latest by June."[2]
Its tape's catalogue entry is dated March 1971[1] and the booklet accompanying the broadcast is dated Autumn 1971.[3]
The BBC Genome Project lists:[4]

For best results it should be recorded long anough in advance of its use with a group for the operator to have gone through it beforehand, together with the filmstrip. The filmstrip (which may be cut into slides, if preferred) and the tape together make a complete programme.”
