New And Forgotten Ways of Making Radio
RADIO ZERO SPECIAL BROADCAST has started: 24 hours of the world's
best radio art for 9 days.
RadiaLx 2008 is a international radio art festival and takes place
between 20-28 September 2008 in Lisbon, Portugal gathered in an
international set of groundbreaking artists, instigators and
producers, delivering public interventions, performances, workshops,
live radio broadcasts, discussions and conferences.
Initiated from the need to discuss and expand the ideas around radio
as an active social enhancer and as an alternative against the
retinian paradigms that sorround us, it Intersects multiple approaches
and genders to achieve participative and social awareness.
Under the motto "new and forgotten ways of making radio", RadiaLx2008
brings together new and old, allowing different forms of participation
to emerge, melt and overlap in virtual and traditional broadcast
interaction, redefining radio's own identity and interaction range.

RADIO: RE-INVENTION AND LOCALITY
24.09 | 18.30 | Goethe-Institut Portugal em Lisboa
Ed Baxter | Diana McCarty | João Almeida
The global village is changing the landscape and fusing reference
points (the same music, food, brands are everywhere). Radio, as a
social medium, has a chance, more than ever, to re-invent itself and
focus more on becoming a catalist for local cultural actions and
promotion. New local radio movements, opened up to artists, have make
themselfs more noticed these last years under this same focus.
National Radios dedicated to culture have also, comming from another
angle, started to work under this ideas.
TECNOLOGY AND RADIO MUTATION

Pit Schultz | Anna Friz | Paula Cordeiro
The internet and spin-off technologies enforce new ways of thinking
about radio. They have added new ways for radio to reach listeners and
lowered barriers for radio creation and transmission. So, how does
these are being used by artists and what new approaches to radio are
being pursued. In fact, in this new context, what is Radio?
