La poesía de Federico García Lorca late como un pulso antiguo que atraviesa la tierra y la voz. En sus versos conviven la música del pueblo, el misterio de la noche y una intensidad emocional que transforma las palabras en imágenes vivas. Lorca escribe con sangre, con luna, con silencio; y en esa mezcla surge una expresividad creativa que desborda los límites del lenguaje. Su poesía no solo se lee: se escucha, se respira, se siente como un eco profundo del alma humana. En cada metáfora vibra un paisaje, en cada ritmo una emoción que invita a imaginar, a escuchar lo invisible.

The poetry of Federico García Lorca beats like an ancient pulse moving through the earth and the human voice. In his verses live the music of the people, the mystery of the night, and an emotional intensity that turns words into vivid images. Lorca writes with blood, with moonlight, with silence; and from this fusion emerges a creative expressiveness that overflows the limits of language. His poetry is not only read: it is heard, breathed, and felt like a deep echo of the human soul. In every metaphor a landscape vibrates, and in every rhythm there is an emotion inviting us to imagine and to listen to the invisible.
The Vienna-based Radia Collective presents the live session “Radio Tecnicolor” featuring Stefan Nussbaumer and Georg Zichy. You are listening to a recording from 9 April 2026 at Basislager – Stefan Nussbaumer’s studio in 1150 Vienna. The concert was produced specifically for Radia transmission no. 1098. The performance can also be viewed in the following video:
You will hear an interweaving of sound and image, in which the video data controls the sound. There is a digital and analogue feedback loop, and radio sounds serve as the connecting element. An app programmed by Stefan Nussbaumer converts colour data into OSC signals. In this way, the sound is controlled by 54 pixels and two human beings.
Concept, production & performance: Stefan Nussbaumer & Georg Zichy

For the Radia Show 1097, *Duuu Radio presents a compilation of tracks from the album “mILLième” (2025). With mILLième, the artist duo Cécile Tonizzo and Nicolas Couturier set out to explore, over a stretch of 217 meters – one-thousandth of the length of the Ill River (Alsace, France) – a fragment of landscape, blending performance, sound design, and graphic art.
In July 2025, a temporary collective was formed for five days with Cyril Magnier, Manuel Zenner, Curtis Coco, and Aquila Lescene. The group built a floating platform, created sound-recording instruments, and printed a series of t-shirts using elements from the Ill. They recorded a collection of sounds, discussions, and musical improvisations for this stretch of the river, with the aim of producing this sound edition.
Produced by the CEAAC, in collaboration with the CSC du Marais in Schiltigheim. The project is part of the “l’Ill – Une collaboration avec la rivière ” initiative between the CRAC Alsace in Altkirch, La Kunsthalle Mulhouse, and the CEAAC in Strasbourg, a collaborative project made possible through the “Mieux produire, mieux diffuser” program established by the Ministry of Culture – Drac Grand Est and supported by the Grand Est Region.
Special thanks to Zoé Colombani and Charlotte Raimbault.

“To Communicate” is a composition for radio transmissions, feedback and live electronics by Andrea Gava created in collaboration with Sante Gava.
“To Communicate” is a site-specific performance that begins with the installation of an antenna designed by my father Sante Gava, radio amateur ‘till the late 70s with the name India Zulu Three Charlie India Xray (IZ3CIX), at the performance site, alongside with a radio. The signals captured with it is then processed in real time and combined with live electronics.
My dad has been a radioamatuer since his twenties. He is still very passionate about it. He builds is own antennas and in the past he also used to make them for other people. Probably, in a subconsciuos way, my interest in sounds, noise, electronic instruments and diy comes from this activity as a radioamateur I was exposed to since birth. A few years ago in my musical research process with aleatoric sound sources, soundscapes and improvisation, I started thinking about radio signals and how to incorporate them in my music. I asked my dad if I could listen to some of his sessions. With my adult ears, the ones of a musician and composer with a passion for Pauline Oliveros, John Cage and Murray Schaffer, I discovered some amazing things simply listening to him surfing the radio waves.
There is such a vibrant soundscape hidden in that background noise and the wonder of the research and discovery for someone (or something) out there is so exciting and inspiring. The fact that noise is also a big part of this sonic landscape is pretty important for me: it is a perfect representation of the fact that noise is everywhere, it is the space where we move, the time that we live, it is a sea where we swim, a sound that contains all of the sounds and it is no single one of them.
“To Communicate” cannot exist without my dad. He is an essential part of this composition not only for the technical side of it but also in the final concerts as an active sound element.
I’ve never talked that much with my dad. He is quite descreet and silent about his inner world, his emotions. We haven’t had many conversations during our lifetime about our feelings. Nonetheless we really love and support each other in every situation, both good and bad. But this lack of communication has always bothered me, more and more during the last years. I know that I’m responsible for this too so I decided to make a change: now that we are becoming older I want to try to create a new bridge between us, a way to communicate.
Music and sound. A creative process that involves one of his passions, the radio, specifically conceived to supply this basic human need for connections and communication seemed the perfect way to do it. A way to make things together, to be creative, to talk and to listen, to connect deeply with each other. “To communicate” for me has a personal and emotional value beside its universal meaning.
Of course this is just a little step. It’s an attempt to communicate, in a rudimentary way maybe, and failure is part of the process too. Communication doesn’t work everytime. It is full of compromises, misunderstandings, conflicts, distance. But it is important to try. Again and again. In these dark and violent times where borders and wars are part of our everyday lives to communicate is more necessary than ever. We need to do it. I want to do it. And I will.
“To Communicate” has been performed twice: the first time in May 2025 during “Closer” (www.borgodicolleameno.it/portfolio/closer/), a contemporary art exhibition at Villa Davia, Borgo di Colle Ameno, Sasso Marconi, Italy, dedicated to the 150th birthday of Guglielmo Marconi, the inventor of the radio, in the same places where he made his first experiments at the end of the nineteenth century. It was played on an acousmounium called Organo Motore, built by Nicola Facchini and Giuseppe de Benedittis (www.organomotore.com). For this performance, I connected via radio with Sante, who transmitted from his home hundreds of kilometers from the concert site.
The second performance took place in February 2026 during “Radia. Mini-festival di radioascolto” (https://radiafestival.com/), at the Memoriale Veneto della grande guerra, Villa Correr Pisani, Montebelluna, Italy. The festival is dedicated to collective radio listening practices: podcasts, contemporary music, sound poetry, listening parties. During this second concert, Sante joined me on stage and performed a radio amateur session. I collected his audio and manipulated it in real time with live electronics, no input mixers and feedback.
Andrea Gava (1990, Italy) is a musician, composer and sound designer.
His work focuses on electroacoustic music and improvisation techniques. He explores the topics of the unexpected, the musical value of broken instruments, of the relationship between man and machine, between presence and absence, of the soundscape as a real space and an imaginary one. His research in the field of electronic music has developed around no-input techniques and the use of audio feedback as the core of his aesthetics.
He plays concerts and records albums both on his own as Andreij Rublev and together with others.
He created soundtracks for theatre, short films, silent movies and contemporary dance performances. He collaborates with cultural institutions, galleries, schools and universities, associations and people from all over the world. He creates online informative content on contemporary music, connecting artists and audience through talks, listening sessions, radio broadcasts and much more.

Silence is never actually silent. Even in a recording studio at a radio station, there is a multitude of quiet sounds, constantly present, unintentionally produced, often unnoticed, which nevertheless make up the basic sonic environment we work out of.
By using the studio itself as an instrument, and its various noisy technological inhabitants as collaborators, this piece brings out the ambient voices which underlie all of the shows, jingles and tracks we produce on a daily basis. Condenser and contact microphones collect the hums of equipment, ticking of clocks, clacking of keyboards, etc, which are then passed through routine processes of effect chains in audio production software, as if they were any human voice or musical instrument.
In turning our attention to these tiny sounds around us, we are acknowledging and exploring the inextricable sonic nature of the studio itself from the audio products we craft within it. As Eno said, “Recording is not the same as reproducing – it’s producing something that couldn’t exist any other way” – sounds are brought into the studio and leave there in another form, with its presence imprinted; the studio has its own life, activity and agency, which co-authors the works made in it. Therefore, we can say that its voices are not necessarily annoying contingencies to be removed; rather, we can see them as intrinsic qualities, fundamental to the objects we produce, like a sonic DNA, or a distinguishing leitmotif, to be worked with rather than against.
