Radia Show 506: "Dancing Fire" by Anne Lepère (from Radio Campus Bruxelles, Belgium). "Radia" is a group of international stations, including WGXC and Wave Farm, interested in new and forgotten ways of making radio. This week: Some of our fears are dancing inside… Burning everything around… This is about a journey; trying to find a way to calm down this fire, live with it, dance with it… Without any fear. Travelling through religions, meeting people, can feed and appease the inside, But this will be vain effort if devoided of reappropriation. Expurgating, singing, dithering… Repossess the actions. An appropriation of the outside to feed the inside. To face the fears and serenely simply be there… Dancing Fire Réalisation & Mixage : Anne Lepère Duration : 23’45 Special Thanks to : Carine Demange, Amélie Marneffe and Gota Slick for their support and advices. Production November 2014 for RADIA Carte Blanche offered by Radio Campus Bruxelles
