RAM radioartemobile is an attempt to found a community based on listening. RAM is the desire to work on the senses and to make a different kind of art practicable, an art perceivable through hearing rather than one to be captured by the eyes. This is sounds which reveal the live nature of events and which grows during the listening process. Not reception but interception, in a place which has been specifically dedicated to this. RAM is the desire to become a presence open to a different type of perception and after having inhabited all the possible visible means of communication, chooses to reveal itself through sounds. Sound is a concrete deviant possibility, precisely thanks to its non-visible essence. It is now autonomous, as it is not a post-scoring, a sound track. It talks about us but does not want to use words, it wants to be persuasive but does not accept the use of music. If we want works as transparent as thoughts, then the best means to achieve this seems to be through a sound that can invade our space and which becomes the setting.
We are its vehicle and we become the subject of a different communication. RAM is a project selected by the European Commission within the framework of "Culture 2000, specific, innovative and/or experimental actions".
