Lost in Transmission #1 | Lucia Festival special + Nat Raha (live)

Lost in transmission is a series of events presenting non-English language radio works with subtitled translations in cinema spaces around Scotland. The captioning allows audiences to experience the wealth of radio art available from all over the globe in its original language in the comfortable space of a cinema – in much the same way as you might go to see a foreign language film – only here there are no pictures, just the sounds, the words and your imagination.

The first of the series is curated by Italian organisation LUCIA whose annual international festival dedicated to the listening of radio works and podcasts is a celebration of the art of storytelling without images.

The festival presents audio narratives from all over the world through the production of subtitled videos (in Italian and English) to facilitate linguistic accessibility. In addition to listening sessions, LUCIA is also a calendar of live performances, sensory warm-ups and meetings with authors and audio makers. Afilliated to the YASS mentorship programme and Radio Papesse, LUCIA are pro-active in seeking out and commissioning fascinating radio works from around the world to share to wider audiences through translation and captioning.

We also have a special live performance from Glasgow based poet and activist-scholar, Nat Raha.
