Putujući radio visited FUZIJA (Festival of Artists, Scientists and Activists) in Valpovo, East Croatia. This is only festival of this type in Valpovo, small town of some 10 000 inhabitants.Putujući radio was set at the bank of river Drava, where a Fuzija camp was organized. Benjamin climbed the tree and set up the antenna. Even if we knew that trees are not the best places for putting up the antenna, we didn’t have no choice. When radio was connected we tested it. It could be heard all over the beach.
People started pulling up their cars and finding station 99.3 FM. Some brought their CDs and organizer brought beer tap and beans were cooked for everyone. Local kids made up a poster for radio. Suddenly carriages from local horse farm appeared so the whole situation became more picturesque.
Festival was held in old castle in Valpove and during the night local bands performed, but also many musicians from the region, including Montenegro and Serbia.
Traveling radio took a big hunk of work and went to support Tabor Film festival ‘07 in Gornja Stubica at castel Oršić.
A peasant uprising in 16th century that was lead by peasant general Matija Gubec is depicted in exhibition in Oršić castle museum. In socialist system he was a figure symbolizing revolt to ruling class so government financed making a huge statue depicting his hand rising towards sky, standing in rags. Behind him there are scenes from peasant uprising battles. Uprising was eventually brought to the end by joined army of different rulers in the area.
Film festival showed to be a hard case for setting up Free radio as everyone is concentrated on consuming movies. It is hard to involve people in whole process of setting up the radio and working on it. Some technical difficulties didn’t help also (15 watt booster died, and transmitter didn’t want to work for first 2 hours). Eventually transmitter worked out and we had ‘castle radio’ that was joined by kids excursion from Montenegro and some of the festival stuff.
Free radio became truly a part of the festival when technicians made a mistake during start of the evening projections. People were sitting in front of the screen and movie starts but instead of the sound of the movie a sound of free radio bursts over big speakers. One sentence over microphone: ”This is free radio” and technician got the mistake. Worth while intervention from radio to film.
Many thanks to Benjamin from south Africa that helped with antenna and to organizers Gabriela, Anja, Nenad and Lukša for having a radio at the festival and to Sky for borrowing nice mixer.
Traveling Radio at Free Festival in Čakovec had to be creative to get antenna up as high as possible without any poles or high house roofs around. The freedom of creativity helped us to arrange first balloon radio.
If u cant get high let your antenna fly.
Free Festival is event organized by network of non profit organizations in Čakovec. They are bussy with work on open source, sustainable developement ad human rights. Festial included presentations, workshops, exhibitions and music concerts.
The MonteParadiso Hacklab is an amazing place, we were very well acomodated and lots of cool people showed up for the workshop. This time we actually set up a free radio that will stay after we leave, they had their own antena and 7W transmitter so we went up to the roof, set the antena, and put their transmission to it’s mission! It’s on! 90.0 FM

At our stop at Rijeka Putujuci Slobodni Radio visited Drugo More were we set up the Radio on 95.7 FM and reached most of downtown! During our short stay we had a couple of interviews happen and a lot of music! Ovo je Brazilska Glazba! In the evening we went to a theatre play and to our surprise they were using the forum teathre methodology from Teatro do Oprimido, Augusto Boal, a brazilian came up with this… Listen to Kristijan’s interview and find more about it.

u Zadru, u ACME, 18. i 19. 6. Organizator: Zadar snova
MMKamp ove je godine kreirao vlastiti program za slobodni internet i FM radio prijenos. Program je paralelno pratio događanja ovogodišnjeg 3. globalnog summita pokreta za slobodnu kulturu, skraćeno od ‘iSummit’ i smješteno u Dubrovnik, 15. - 17. 6.
Završetkom summita, samostalnI FM studio krenuo je u svijet i doputovao u Zadar. Prezentirani su filmovi o taktičkim medijima, reciklaži novih tehnologija, o ljudima i digitalnim kulturama brazilskih kolektiva Submidialogia, Metareciclagem, Estúdio livre, Midia tática, Rádio livre, Arca, contraTV i mimoSa. Okupljeno društvo bili smo mi i društvo ZVUK, nas dva.
19.6. u popodnevnim satima u eter je krenuo prvi zadarski slobodni putujući FM prijenos. Setupiran je internet radio streaman kroz ‘Slobodni radio: stanica M.I.R’ i kreiran u realnom vremenu. Glazbeni mix u živo izveli su naši Danila Fox i DJ B. kao i naš Fadić iz ZVUKa. Putem interneta i potezom pera pozdravili smo se s ekipom slobodnog radija u malom ribarskom mjestu pokraj Sao Paola. Mikrofon je bio otvoren za sve. Družina zaslužna za ovaj novomedijski tranfer znanja su Alexandre Freire (Brazil) i Kruno Jošt (Križevci) .
On sunday at the iSummit we had the Birds of a Feather about structuring further Brazilian <-> Croatian free culture exchange. Only two people from the summit showed up, but we also had a couple of brazilians on-line (valeu cris e machado). With renewed ideas we think that this exchange is only going to get better!
During the iSummit we also participated on a Workshop on setting up free culture spaces, we found out about lot’s of european and brazilian free culture spaces and discussed how to about setting one up in different contexts. it seems that iCommons is going to create a node project just to help out people involved in these ideias, so if you want to set up a free culture space, join the fun.
Selling Free Culture - is it an art performance, social practice, good money collecting skim or just a joke? It does not matter - it worked well. The whole idea is to support the Free Traveling Radio tour by raising funds by doing common brazilian culture Camelôdromo, selling Pinga (brazilska rakija) Havaianas (flipflops) and we also sold some CDs and DVDs packed with free culture media. Using a floating exchange rate we would first sell Brazilian Reais, “real” money, so that clients could then buy our goods (our brazilian partner only accepted real money after all…
