Radio Rebelde [Rebel Radio] (2025)

Radio Rebelde [Rebel Radio] is (2025) a research project and installation that takes the form of a radio station. This radio does not report current events, is not in tune with local events, and does not speak the language from which it emits its signals. Its broadcasts are not broadcast over the airwaves. It is a counter-radio that is underground, delocalized, foreign. A radio that demands to be approached to be able to listen. A radio that restores the voices of the past, archaeological vestiges of a time when Latin America and the Caribbean revolted through sound. Radio Rebelde is an invitation to be part of a utopian community of tuners, not only suspended in the electromagnetic spectrum, but also capable of gathering across time and space.
