The main theme of theINSAM Journal of Contemporary Music, Art and Technology No. 15, another issue in the journal’s ongoing development that we are delighted to celebrate as a milestone and on the occasion of the INSAM Institute’s 10th anniversary, is “Radio Art”. In the year that marks the 40th anniversary of theSound Workshop [Radionica zvuka], a serial dedicated to radio art produced in Radio Belgrade, we were inspired to invite collaborators to write on the histories, presents and futures of this artistic form. In response, we received five original articles discussing the histories of radio art serials, competitions, a radio documentary drama as a result of a collaborative educational project and radiophonic genres. Moreover, this theme was not merely contained in the Main Theme section, but was also marked by contributions in the (Inter)Views and the Reviews sections.
