"RADIO RADIO is a sixteen-part series of forty-five minute broadcasts which asks an honest question: Is there really a place on radio for experimentation?" Christophe Migone,
Pour le plaisir du son. La jouissance de l'écoute. La nique aux nuisances et surtout le refus de nous résigner à la fuite ou à l'enfermement. Devant la complexité des phénomènes sonores, écouter, c'est se responsabiliser et commencer à faire résistance.
