Eventually things came to a head... In 2014 (or was it earlier? I don't think so but who knows?) I wrote on the other forum that I had in mind a boombox exhibition, possibly the first ever in Italy. However I was after a certain number of models I would have loved to show, surely members would help me find them?
In time, people like Docs, brutus442, Dits, Stereomad, even former decentmanforyou (yes! him!) helped me find what I was looking for, and yet the exhibition was continuously postponed. Then in 2015-16, on the occasion of the centennial of the radio, I organized a course at the University in collaboration with a friend of mine who is an architect. What our students produced is now going to be part of an exhibition in Catania, advertised as follows:
The poster says "an exhibition and four events" because the exhibition (radios, photos, pictures, an installation and a certain number of videos produced by students and a painter) will last three weeks during which three performances and a round table will take place. Now guess who is reluctantly going to perform on May 26?
Come on, Italian is not too difficult... Yes guys, you got it right: it's our rustproof, unfading, enthusiastic friends and honorable members of the forum Docs and Lasonic TRC 920 plus wifeys. Meanwhile, we'll spend three days together in sunny Sicily & we will report -- irregularly, say in between one beer and another -- from the Boombox Bar. Stay tuned!
Oh, and we have more posters. Our graphic designer got creative... Enjoy!
