What music will we listen to in the future?
We may not be listening to what is now commonly considered “music”.
Listeners could become players at the same time.
Rava vavàra is an experimental radio broadcast gathering sound artworks of various kinds including performance, audio installation, poetry, context-specific experiments and other.
Since january 2018, Rava vavàra has been broadcasting sound pieces and radio artworks through the frequencies of Radio Onda Rossa in Rome (Italy), Radio Corax in Halle (Germany), Radio Raheem in Milan (Italy) and Archipel Community Radio in Berlin (Germany).
So far, changing locations and coproducers has made sure that the broadcast retains the perspective of conceptual and artistic openness and avoids rigidity.
Rava vavàra has an interdisciplinary approach and can be considered a radio experimentation that tries out artistic cooperations through different media.
It is a laboratory with a global breath and a local depth, intended to share a variety of aeshetics on the basis of a common ground.
It's based on solidarity among artists and fosters reciprocity, mutual respect and cross-seeding.
Rava vavàra is the title of a poem written by Eva Macali in 2016. Some artists have made use of the text to create sound artworks.
