The contributions for today’s and next week’s broadcast focus on the topic of Radiophonic Art from Mexico. They are part of a contribution by Radio Educación, one of the partners in the vast network for the Long Night of Radio Art within the RADIOTOPIA on line – on air project which took place in September 2002. Radio Educación made a selection of radiophonic pieces focusing especially on soundscapes which mediate the diversity and vividness of mexican mega-cities as well as the cultural background of the country in an atmospheric way. Radio Educación, a public cultural radio station located in Mexico City, is dedicated to promoting radio art – doing so by providing a public platform whith their special radio programm. Besides, Radio Educación is on of the main organizers of the International Radio Biennal which took place for the 4th time in 2002 in Mexico City. Following an idea by its director, Lidia Camacho, Radio Educación features a weekly radio-art program with the title "El Arte de Escuchar El Radioarte" and, as a producer, plays an important role in promoting this specific art form.
